063][ VIDEO ][ Early hours: Sunday

[It's busy for 3am on a Sunday - must be the weekend for it - but the people still spilling out of The Coliseum give a wide berth to the figure huddled on the edge of the sidewalk.

Robert Chase is wearing a suit put on this morning but which, in the course of a day, seems to have accumulated a weeks worth of creases. He rests his elbows on his knees, focus intent on the one small bright spot left on the display of a half shattered cellphone.

With slow focus he dials a number. Listens to silence and performs the perfunctory task of hanging up on a line that never connected.

He tries again.

Again.

Finally, though there's not even a dial tone to respond to him, he just starts talking. A hopeless slur.]


I need to get a cab. I need. To get a cab. I need a cab I need a cab I need a cab I.

Need.

A cab.

[No one answers. The phone drops into the gutter, his head into his hands.]

Happy Thanksgiving.



[Chase is back in the city and CANON UPDATED to season 6 'Ignorance is Bliss'. Replies will come from intheblanks and from tomorrow that will be Chase's NEW OFFICIAL POLY JOURNAL so please friend add! Notes: as of right now he does not remember the city, but remembering things will develop over time. Please feel free to assume, for now, that he's just another 4th wall drop-in, especially anyone who has met future!Chase before.]
