[Here's a guy who doesn't look at all comfortable at a computer. But he's managed to set himself up with a video post anyway. Because that might be better, should Ellie somehow come across it.]

Look, I never took the brown acid, OK? So I got no idea why a giant hand would tell me I'm teaching carpentry at this school. Wood shop. Whatever. Maybe I've finally gone nuts...

[A pause. Beard stroking pause. Glaring at the camera pause.]

Look, I gotta get back to where I'm from. Nice to see somewhere in the world hasn't been overrun by infected or hunters yet. Y'all have a nice set up here. But I need to find a way back to where I'm supposed to be. I got people relyin' on me, OK? Anyone can help me out with that, I'd be somewhat obliged.

....Ellie, you happen to see this, let me know. I'm in the teachers dorms.

I mean, is it a costume or an animatronic or something? He's not REALLY a giant hand.

[Please tell me he's not really a giant hand.]

He's really a giant hand. He has a brother, even. There are two of them.

[There are two of them]

[golonghorns]

....right. Two hands. Makes sense. They normally come in pairs, I guess.

[He sighs, pinches the bridge of his nose a little. What a weird place.]

If it really is 2014, I'm hoping this world still has coffee.

[raced_god]

And alcohol.

[Which is important, and you strike him as a guy who could use a good drink.]

[golonghorns]

I could go for a scotch about now.

[raced_god]

That's pretty much my perpetual state of being.

[golonghorns]

Your boss is a giant hand. I ain't surprised.

Bein' a school, I'm guessing alcohol on the premises is a no-no?

[raced_god]

No one actually cares.

[I keep a fifth of whiskey in my desk at all times, right next to the gun.]

[golonghorns]

That so? Man. Things have really changed since I went to school last.

[raced_god]

You'll find out.

[golonghorns]

I expect I will. At least, till I can figure a way to get back.
