Jade!

[Obviously this is Jade's fault. ...Maybe not fault; this is nicer than his cell, if not utterly confusing.]

I know you're here! Come out from... ...space!

[This is really confusing. The identical floor and surrounding environment is disorienting, but there are buildings, and... a chair? It's attractive, but not so much that he doesn't kick it over in his confusion before moving on to the buildings. This can't be natural... though, considering the way inside was through a mysterious door in his cell wall, what chance was there of it being otherwise?

Maybe alerting Jade is a bad idea. He can't lock him back up if he doesn't know where he is. So, exploring. Quietly.

As quietly as a Dist can manage.]

[Wow. That's almost a compliment. It gets Dist to back off enough that he just nods, actually considering what he's been told.]

I can think about it. I'll need to find out more. How did you get here?

[guyexplains.livejournal.com]

You might check out the library. [He crosses his arms at the question, half shrugging.]

The first time? Through a shop. Afterwards, you just think about being here and you'll arrive. Same with going home. If you want to try it, I'll wait.

[Dist gives him a very skeptical look, but he does concentrate, and, well... pops away.

When he gets back, he looks far more interested.]

Well, that gives your story more weight. Though I don't know why I'd want to go back at all.

You'd have to take that up with someone with more authority than me. [AKA your bestest friends.]

Otherwise, it's not really my job to police you here. If you don't do something that could be dangerous to our world, I don't have a reason to interfere with you.

Whether you stick around here or go home isn't my concern. But be aware we're not here on vacation.

[Dist gives an incredulous snort halfway through what Guy is saying, but it's not clear what about.]

You say that like you have some idea about why we are here. I don't suppose you'd care to share? Maybe it's as good as a vacation for me.

As far as I'm aware we're here as experimental subjects for the Machine. I haven't been here long enough to say if that's true, but I trust it is.

[Jade wouldn't lie about that, neither would Peony.]
