Selene:"Right. Need a mirror, or something shiny..." Looking around, this place is pretty much made out of mirrors. "Who the hell lives here, David Copperfield?" Fixing her gaze on one she pushes back through into what she still thinks of as the real world

Not the dead body over there, or the police sirens coming closer, or the hit squads, or the nightmare monsters begging to burst through into this plane of existence. Clothes." Raj would also like some clothes now that he's transformed back, but doesn't bother bringing it up. "Okay, this werewolf stuff I can get, but what does a talking cockroach have to do with any of this?"

"Fabio, maybe..." Selene stops mumbling to herself when she sees the rest of the pack. "Ah, great, you got him. We need to go, guys, the fuzz are on their way." She pauses and looks sheepish "Did anyone hear the escape plan?"

Jarrod I'm assuming you came through as well? If not it doesn't matter, because it's one of those things that's easy to retconn. Selene, Wendigo rumble-hisses "Hurry!" again. Everyone else, you hear a low-pitched, hissing voice come from all around, demanding that you hurry. Cockroach says "He's right, you guys need to get out of here."

You have ridden with Blacktail, who high-tailed it out of there as soon as he heard the car alarm, because he knew that meant cops. You are heading to Billingsly park, the rendevous point. Are you staying in the Goosewagon with Rat, riding shotgun with him, or riding in the back of the truck with the prisoner?

Alf Alf is caught off guard by Selene popping out of thin air in the kitchen but composes himself in time to answer her question. "Something about Billingsly park in ~spirit form~.... I guess the farmer has been sharing drinks with the guy towing the petting zoo."

"Alright, stop screwing around. We need to get out of here.

"Sorry, where are my bloody manners. The unseen voice is Wendigo, he's very clear that we need to go now."

Jarrod rummages through the drawers in this apartment he is in. He doesn't really care that the guy who lives there may object. The clothes are not really his style but they're certainly fancier than the ones he has at home.

^^^^ lmaoXyloJW posted:"What if I told you I could teach you a power, a gift, so that you would never run out of booze again?" You all will be offered 3 free powers by spirits sometime in the near future. If you don't like them, you can turn them down, I have at least 9 powers picked out for each of you, and if you change your mind, you can always go crawling back to the spirit that offered it. You can also learn additional powers at a price. Swires you are being offered your first.

"For Christ's sake, you clowns, we need t- Is that real silk?" Selene is also distracted enough to loot a gown and some slippers, but then gets back down to business "Right, spirit world, Billingsly Park, Blacktail, let's move it!"

Raj still doesn't know poo poo about the spirit world either. In all the commotion he barely manages to grab some random clothes too, but doesn't bother putting them on yet since who knows if they'll have to shift again soon.

Doug is concerned. "Guys, is this real? Is this all the screams of my dying brain as I die from smoke inhalation in a barn in the middle of nowhere? None of this makes any sense." He also is concerned with his obligations to the scientific community. He should probably let them know that werewolves and a new plane of reality exist, but at the same time, he doesn't want to end up in a bioweapons lab.

Jarrod pays heed to the disembodied voice, beckons to the others, and vanishes into the nearest mirror, slipping into the spirit world. He waits for the others before descending down the stairs to the lobby. "Don't bother with the lift."

Oh sorry, guns and that briefcase don't go. If anyone wants to retcon "I stepped back through and hid poo poo" feel free. Otherwise, as far as everyone can tell, it does.
