[ She's shaken and upset and that's easy enough to see, so he holds out his hands to her, open and palms upward, trying to look as non-threatening as possible so he doesn't alarm her any further, although the look on her face has him wondering what in the hell she'd just been yanked away from. ]

It's alright. You're gonna be okay. Let's get you inside where it's warmer, alright? There's clothes, and food, and something to get you warmed up. My name is Simon. I'm not going to hurt you. Will you let me help?

[Simon. He wants to help.

Don't trust them.

Is this where she's supposed to stop trusting? Because it's not the team, so is this it? Is this who she isn't supposed to trust? She has no idea, but she needs to be warm, and she knows she can defend herself if she has to. She has to clear her head, she has to focus.]

Clothes...clothes would be good.

[That's her agreement and she waits for him, wanting to be to his side and behind just a little.]

Alright. [ He agrees, giving her a small smile and taking a step back towards the house. ] Alright, we can do clothes. Come on, there's rooms on the first floor we can use to find you something.

Are you... Did you just get here?

[ She didn't give her name, but he doesn't press, not yet. He's good at prioritizing and getting her moving and talking would help until they could get her covered up and maybe feeling a little more secure. he leads the way towards the house in earnest then, glancing back to make sure she was following. ]

'Get' here? I don't even know why I'm here, or where here is. I...have I been kidnapped? Are you with the FBI? Is anyone here from the FBI?

[She hates this feeling, but it keeps happening. She may know who she is now, somewhat, but now here's a new place, and new people, and being at the mercy yet again of complete strangers.]

You've sort of been.... borrowed. [ There, that's a less panic-inducing word than 'kidnapped' right? ]

This place is called Wonderland. Yes, sort of like the book or the movie or whichever you're familiar with, but also not quite. It drags people from all over - times, universes, a bunch of crazy places that I'm not going to go into yet because frankly it's confusing as hell and overwhelming and I'm just going to sound even more like a crazy person if I try, until you've seen it for yourself. What you need to know is this place is fueled by magic. Or, at the very least, science none of us understand. [ Because some people had very strong opinions about the validity of 'magic'. ] It draws us here and keeps us for a time. Sometimes that's a long time and sometimes it's very short. We don't really get a say in when we come and go.

And no, I'm not FBI. I'm not even American - British, if the accent didn't give it away. I've been here for a year and a half now, give or take a few weeks.

['Borrowed.' She's been borrowed, and everything he's saying is crazy - or at least she'd think he was crazy if she wasn't living it all, right now.]

...Wonderland? Magic?

[It's overwhelming when you're still trying to get a handle on tattoos that can somehow predict crimes that haven't happened yet. But then he tells her how long he's been here and she panics, heart beating faster, eyes wide.]

N-No, I can't...I can't be here that long. It has to be shorter than that, I have people, I have someone. He already lost me once, I can't be gone again.

He won't know you're gone. [ Simon's quick to explain that part of it when he sees what's upset her. ] This place plays with time. because no one remembers it when they leave, even if they end up back here again. When you go back? It's to the exact moment you left. Almost as if time stops when you're not there to experience it. No one will notice you're missing. Your life will just pick up right where you left it, without you or anyone else any the wiser.

[So now he's he missing one. Now she's the one who can't find him. She isn't sure if she feels better or worse knowing that. Maybe a little better because at least he doesn't have to worry or be afraid. Not again.]

Even...I won't remember?

[Could this be what happened to her, somehow, before?]

Are there other places that can...that can do this? Take away your memories, I mean.

[There's an involuntary shiver from her then, even with the minimal clothing now.]

[ He climbs the steps and opens the front door for her to let her in to the warmth and security offered on the other side. ]

I don't know. Maybe? If I've learned anything here, there's a lot of worlds out there we don't know about. Realities that exist that are like ours, but not quite. Or some that are completely different. Some have magic, or aliens, or creatures and beings that only exist in our mythologies or history books. [ Or comic books, as it were. ] Who knows what places out there can accomplish wth science, or magic. Or both, I suppose.

[As soon as heat hits her, Jane closes her eyes for a second, soaking it up and taking a deep breath before looking back at the man helping her.]

I don't...I don't just not know where I am. I have...

[How best to put this?]

The I have amnesia. I don't...really know who I am. The FBI thinks...they think they know, but I still don't know me. And now...

[Now she's here, where everything is even more unfamiliar and has magic to boot.]
