....well.

It's like they made my world into a film. Except with very cheesy dialogue, much less color, and a lot of gunfights and explosions. ...huh.

Sounds exciting! What's your Top Secret agency do?

I'm Mag. It's nice to meet you.

Well, if you were on our world, I would tell you that that was classified information, and let it be. But, seeing as this community is just something else, I can safely say that we're Torchwood. Basically, an organization that monitors a rift in space and time in the middle of Cardiff city--we find what comes out, and see whether it's dangerous or not. No control over what goes in from this side, though, unfortunately.

Mag, huh? Well, it's a pleasure. Is that short for something, or is it just Mag?

How can you monitor time and space?

Thank you. It is, it's short for Magdalene.

[51stcentury]

Well... Not exactly. We can monitor whatever comes through time and space to this planet. Anything else is someone else's job. We're kind of stationary, centered mainly on the Rift here in Cardiff.

Magdalene? That's gorgeous. And very formal, which isn't me so much, so Mag it is.

I see. ...I think. What kind of things would travel through time like that?

Oh, thank you. Mag is fine, that's what most everyone calls me.

Well, whatever gets caught up in a negative rift spike. Plants, creatures, technology. We even had a positive rift spike that turned out to be alien sand once. I mean, we have a rift manipulator, but that's just better left alone. The last time someone messed with that, the Rift started cracking apart at the seams.

Well, you can call me Jack. That's what most everyone calls me as well. Unless you're set on the Captain bit, that is. There are some who can't get around that formality.

((OOC Note: Fyi, Dee is having some relationship fail here, if Mag feels like counseling him in any way. :P))

...what happens if the Rift cracks?

I'm sorry if I'm asking too many questions, I've just never heard of anything like you work before; feel free to tell me if I'm being nosy.

Jack it is, then. Good to meet you, Jack.

((Super!Mag is on her way for counsel-times :D))

People and things start falling through that should never have been here. From all sorts of times and places. We had the black plague in our hospitals, crusaders in the center of town, Sycorax war ships flying over the council. It was a mess. We fixed it, in the end, but there was a price.

It's not too many questions. I've just convinced myself that it finally doesn't take an interrogation of someone before I figure out they won't come and invade if they know about what we do. You should consider yourself lucky. You get to hear about our little operation as much as you like.
