[ The PORTAL clicks on to the well known grumpy reluctant werewolf. ]

And, thanks again, Promenade for reminding me how much my life sucks. You know, why even bother bringing people here if you're going to kick them out? It's just stupid. Or something. I can't even begin to go into it--and today is today. Really. Thanks for that reminder

[Oh it's Mr Not-So-Social~!]

I found my place of solace. No one lives there and it's really big and empty.

[It's actually in the background as she talks to him.]

It's got some monsters though...

[ I enjoy my not-social B| ]

Why do you have monsters in your place of solace?

[She will fix you Josh. You cannot escape a friendly flamingo.]

Um...I don't know. I mean, if the place was on Gran Pulse where it should be they'd be there too so I guess it brought everything here. They've been there for a long, long time now...

[ I WILL RUN AWAY. I RAN SO FAR AWAY--oh wait that's by Seagulls, not Flamingos. ]

And you can't kick them out? Having monsters roaming around is dangerous, Vanille!

But I know how to fight them! We all do! And I've fought even worse monsters out there.

[Like her eidolon that cast doom on her. Which basically meant win or die.]

I beat them all earlier but they might respawn.

Re.... respawn. Like, what, a video game?

[rainbowfishing]

Um? I guess so? I've never played video games but they sort of just appear in the same spots. Maybe I'm dreaming them up without thinking about it because that's how I remember it now.

I am living inside a video game. I really am dreaming.

[rainbowfishing]

You're living in a dream city Josh. I don't think that's the same thing as a video game...

[She just needs to stare at you. You sure are an odd duck Josh.]

[withpuppyeyes]

You're talking about monsters respawning! That's a video game.

video;

[rainbowfishing]

No that's just what happens! Don't you have monsters and stuff in your world Josh?

video;

[withpuppyeyes]

Not like that! And they stay dead. They don't come back!

video;

[rainbowfishing]

But you have monsters?

[Key point of this discussion.]

And what if you don't go back to that place ever, they might still be there, you just don't know.

video;

[withpuppyeyes]

No, because things stay dead. Or undead... only if you're a vampire.

video;

[rainbowfishing]

You have vampires too?

[Point point point - those things over there? Guess what they are?]

So do we!

[withpuppyeyes]

They... don't look like that.
