When the video comes alive, it seems fairly clear that it's some kind of mistake. The man holding the device is only half in frame, his expression somewhere between serious and distressed, though he says nothing. The collar of his black leather-looking top is visible at the bottom of the screen, and anyone watching can hear the sound of him walking through water - still in the bay, then, as the dim lighting shadowing his face confirms.

To say that the situation was confusing for Black Bolt would be a vast understatement. He had been sent to Earth, fine, but this didn't seem to be the same place, and waking up inside of some kind of pod with new belongings and information on his chest had been worrying to say the least. He didn't like the idea that he had been unconscious, that someone had apparently been with him while he was. Add to that the fact that he couldn't find an obvious way to communicate, and he was having a pretty bad day.

After a few moments of figuring it out, he clicked the video off. He didn't know who was here, anyway. Perhaps keeping a low profile until he found out where he was, and where his family was, would be better.

[Glenn watched him for a minute before he realized what he was trying to do. He didn't know enough sign language to know it was different, but he could get that he was trying to communicate with it.]

Okay. I'm going to stop you there, because I don't know sign language. Sorry. Let me think, okay? There's an option on your phone that should let you text. [He gave him the instructions, briefly. He'd used the text posts a few times while he or Maggie had been out, luckily.] I'm Glenn by the way. I ended up here just like you did, I'm just passing on some help I got when I got here a couple days back.

Black Bolt waited patiently, listening to Glenn's explanation, before he switched over to the texting program. "Thank you," he typed simply. He kept his words simple - he wasn't accustomed to writing them out, and it felt strange. "I am Black Bolt."

[That was different. But hey, he'd already seen some pretty weird stuff.]

Hi. No one knows who brought us here. Or why, really. But everyone with a necklace? We're in the same boat. Were you trying to ask something, before?
