[Video ~ Introduction]

[sebastian_verlac]

[There's a disarmingly handsome face on the network, peering at the screen with mild but open interest. He looks as if he may have just stepped out of an old fashioned literary romance novel but his tone sounds more relaxed than some brooding romantic hero's should be.]

Mirror, mirror. What is it that you are showing me?

Other dimensions?

Hello? Can anyone hear me?

[She gives off a little laugh.]

Lately, yeah. Technically, not so much.

[sebastian_verlac]

I used to live in Paris.

[trustmybase]

I'm not really from the Twilight Zone, you know.

But Paris. Paris is nice. What happened there?

[sebastian_verlac]

I grew up.

[He laughs.]

[trustmybase]

[She'll laugh too.] Fair enough.

Then you moved away from home. Smart move.

[sebastian_verlac]

Yes, but just recently.

Now I am visiting my cousin.

[trustmybase]

Back in Paris?

[sebastian_verlac]

No. Somewhere I doubt that you've heard of.

But it does make a nice change.

[trustmybase]

I might surprise you. Try me.

[sebastian_verlac]

Hm. Alright.

Idris.

[trustmybase]

Okay, round one goes to you. Never heard of it. Anything like Paris?

[sebastian_verlac]

Not from my experience.

[trustmybase]

Then what?

[sebastian_verlac]

It's quieter.

[trustmybase]

Small town quiet or "I hope I don't get attacked by crazy people who want to eat me" quiet?

[sebastian_verlac]

Just less people.

You could be eaten anywhere.

[trustmybase]

I like to steer clear of places that my chances are better for not being eaten.

[sebastian_verlac]

No lonely dark alleys for you then.

[trustmybase]

That's...pretty solid advice, even if I didn't wanna be eaten.

[sebastian_verlac]

They're no place for a pretty girl to be.

[trustmybase]

[She grins because what girl doesn't love a compliment?]

Then big strong men should go looking for dark alleys?

[sebastian_verlac]

Only to defend their ladies.

[trustmybase]

You know, sometimes, the ladies handle themselves.

[sebastian_verlac]

Oh, I know. But that doesn't mean a man can't be chivalrous.

[trustmybase]

Yeah, guess that's not too common these days.
