Default A Wrinkle in Time

*CRACKLE!* *FLASH!* *BANG!*


Valerie: Oh! Where am I? What happened? Where are my clothes? Oh dear!


Rachel: Who are you? Where did you come from? Are you a vampire?! I'm not human, you know. I don't have any blood.
Valerie: I'm... I'm... goodness, you're huge. My name is Valerie. I don't know how I got here. There was a flash.
I bet it's like "Terminator." You fell through a wrinkle in time. From Lilliput, by the look of it.
Pardon? What do you mean?
Never mind.
Please, do you have something I could wear?
Of course. Let's go inside. This is my house.


Here, you could wear my scarf like a sarong or something for now.
Thank you. I don't suppose you have any clothes my size.
No.
I could make some. Do you have sewing or knitting things?
I'm sure Lulu has. I'll look.
Sihtric: Who's this?
Don't look, Sihtric. Be a gentleman for once.
Nice.


How about these? The needles are quite small.
Perfect, thank you.


*CLICK, CLICK, CLICK, CLICK!*
Shit, you are fast!


30 MINUTES LATER
There. A dress.
Wow! That's amazing. You are talented.


Much better.


It looks good. Very impressive.
Don't you make your own clothes?
I do not. I order them online.
What's online?
It's shopping. Wait, where are you from again?
Smartdollhampton.
I read about that. I thought it didn't exist anymore. Valerie, what year is it?
1835.
Wow! A miniature time-travelling vampire. Cool. You can stay!


Look, this is eBay. Here's a nice dress that would fit you.


Ooh, no. It's not very modest.
Oh yeah. 1835. Right.
Is there wool? I can make more things for myself.


How about these?
Lovely. Maybe the grey. Or green.
Okay. *thinking* I'll slip some purple in the order as well. If she wants to be modest, at least she can be colourful.


Now, Valerie. I'll introduce you to my idiot brother, Sihtric. And Sasha later, if he can be bothered to get out of bed.
I'm very thirsty.
Um... what do you... eat?
I'm a vegetarian. I feed from small animals, not humans.
Hmm. There are a few nasty little yappy dogs around here that Lulu moans about and Casper our dog hates. We'll find you one later. *giggle*
