[ Toboe hasn’t shown his face to anyone ever since he… well, died. He won’t be mentioning that. It’s the second time, he dies, and it doesn’t get better. But in any case, he is worried about someone. ]

Hello. [ he isn’t as excitable as he usually is, but he smiles. he also looks pretty tired. ] I hope everyone is doing better after… that. [ kidnapping. Dognapping? Wolfnapping! ] Violet, were you alright? [ after Toboe died, he means. Since he died to protect her, he sort of hoped she survived, in the end. ]

I also have another question. Back in your world, have you ever heard of Paradise? I just would like to hear what you know about it, if that’s alright. Thank you.

A club? [ like a group of people...? ]

I don't know. Maybe in your world?

[brushoff]

Maybe. [ SHRUGS. ] Even if it isn't, it certainly sounds like a club.

[onewiththewild]

What sort of club do you mean?

video;

[brushoff]

A dance club, obviously.

video;

[onewiththewild]

[ wait, isn't a club like a group of people? Like a pack ]

... I'm not sure if I know what that is.

[brushoff]

[ paaause ] Before I tell you, how old are you?

video;

[onewiththewild]

[ UH. he is two.

But he has no idea how much that would be in human age ]

I don't know. I never counted.

[brushoff]

[ okay, there's a pause because that's confused Dorian enough that he's changing the subject. ]

How could you not know? That seems to be something that pretty much everybody would know about themselves.

[onewiththewild]

Ah- I just don't... know? It wasn't very important. [ sure. great excuse ]

video;

[brushoff]

...right.

Anyway, a dance club is a place where someone plays music. People dance and have drinks.

video;

[onewiththewild]

Oh!" That sounds like a nice place! [ toboe n o ]

video;

[brushoff]

Well, I certainly enjoy them at least.

video;

[onewiththewild]

Have you found any, here in this world?

video;

[brushoff]

I have, actually. There's one here: [ and insert directions to a PRETTY SLEAZY club ]

You...ah, might want to check it out before actually going there.

video;

[onewiththewild]

How will I check it out if I don't go there?

video;

[brushoff]

Well, I meant, ask around about it. It might not be your type of thing.

video;

[onewiththewild]

Oh.

Alright, alright, I will ask around! thank you!

video;

[brushoff]

You're welcome.

I'm Dorian, by the way.

video;

[onewiththewild]

I'm Toboe! it's nice to meet you, Dorian.

How long have you been here?

video;

[brushoff]

Only a month or so. And yourself?

video;

[onewiththewild]

About the same time, actually!

video;

[brushoff]

Well, we can be equally clueless together.

video;

[onewiththewild]

[ he chuckles and nods ] That's right.

Is this place too different from what you are used to?

video;

[brushoff]

Actually? It kind of is--mostly because the superpowers are something new.

video;

[onewiththewild]

Oh, yes. Most people in my world didn't have powers. [ well, three of them did. Not counting the wolves, but in Toboe's world, all wolves were like that. It's not a "superpoewr". ]
