[0004]: You Must Really Love Testing [video]

[The feed flickers, showing stone, no doubt the exterior wall surrounding the mansion. It would seem fairly ordinary, if not entirely uninteresting, except for the white stone was bordering a view of the sky with the town below. A painting maybe? But it is far too realistic. An orange rim surrounds the picture.

It worked. [The utterance is quick and soft, but there is no hiding the excitement creeping into her voice. 

She backs up several steps, showing an electric blue frame, also depicting the sky and town--albeit a different part of it. She throws a rock towards the orange frame, and the viewer might expect the picture inside to break, vanish, or simply reject the projectile. Instead, it comes flying out of the blue frame. She repeats again, aiming for the blue frame, and it flies from the orange.]

The portal gun still works.

You have portals, too? [Interesting! But..] You said...warp?

Not so much portals. What I'm talking about are big machines that connect to specific points. They can't be changed.

Oh. [Well, that's also interesting too.] Are they useful?

When we were done with what we had to do, we were able to get back across the ocean when no other ship was able to. So, yes.

Back across...the ocean? ...I suppose that is very useful.

They cannot be moved?

No. They were massive platforms, and had a big block of metal next to them that let you tell the machine what your destination was.

Oh. So they're permanent?

The portals this gun disappear as soon as I pass through a particle field.

As long as they have power, yeah.

Um... What's a particle field?

[identity profile] redacted-error.livejournal.com 2011-07-14 02:44 pm (UTC)(link)
They were put over doorways, and objects would disintegrate if they tried to pass through. With a few exceptions like humans and the portal gun.

Not awful. Inconvenient.
