He goes out and gets a chocolate popsicle, of course. Better yet, instead of staying in the warm store to eat it, he marches outside to demolish it on his way home. Now he's frozen inside and out, and even violently shivering from how freaking cold he is. And still, he's finishing that popsicle. Honestly, kids these days...
Swallowing the latest bit of icecream, Danny glances up when the man murmurs to himself, following his gaze. He didn't hear exactly what he'd said, but he can guess.
"That's the Overlord's castle," he supplies helpfully.

"Overlord? But the feudal system disappeared a long time ago...well, actually, I suppose not so long ago, as the term itself shouldn't be used to described a decentralized sociopolitical structure in which a weak monarchy attempted to control the lands of the realm through reciprocal agreements with regional leaders, like lords....."

Finally the talking lulls. "... You're one of the new people, aren't you."

He blinks as the boy's words:
"Considering that this is my own disillusion, I don't see how that it making me 'one of the new people'....."

"Soma-rium, you say? I suppose it's fitting to call this after a Persian drink that was said to 'bring you closer to the Gods' without having to actually die...." he muttered to himself mostly.
He then reached for his credentials out of habit and showed them to Flynn:
"I'm Dr. Spencer Reid, from the BAU at the FBI..." he gave the blond man a small, awkward smile.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Dr Spencer," he said sincerely with an encouraging smile, "I know this place seems kind of...unbelievable, but what you're seeing is all real."
Flynn spoke while looking the man in the eye, completely relaxed. He then tilted his head a little, deciding that perhaps Spencer should be the one to ask the questions. Gods knew that the other man probably had quite a few.
"Tell me. Are there any questions you would like to ask of me, or about this place?"

Still as he observed the blond more closely, Reid started to think that the young man was truly believing that this world was real. As with any UnSub, the profiler chose to play along, in order to be able to get as much information about this disillusion as he could.

"Hm, yes, I guess I am. Can you tell me where this is?"

"A small village named Espoir, in the dream realm of Somarium, my boy~ I take it you're new~" The Undertaker offered Reid his trademark, creepy grin.

Kis noticed the stranger and guided Beezelbub into a nice glide that allowed Kid to stop next to Reid.
"A little lost?"

"Well, if you consider that I've never heard or read about this world, Somarium, then yes, I'd say that I am lost."

"This place isn't all that bad. You shouldn't have anything to worry about!"

"...Huh...How....did you to that?"
