[ After some fiddling, Dino's finally gotten the seal to work -- mentally, he focuses on the idea of making contact with his family and friends, and voila! Video. He's leaning against a railing in the Metropolis district with Enzo perched precariously on his shoulder and rawring at the screen, and it's obvious from the muted sounds of running water

[ ... Oh boy. Dino didn't really mean to broadcast the imminent destruction of the city to... everyone. :|a ]

Yeah! [ Followed by a sheepish laugh -- there's no danger here, no sir. ] He's sort of a... pet! ... I think.

[ Great. He's talking to one of those freaks who think alligators and anacondas make great pets. How is a turtle even that big? It isn't possible! ]

[ ... ]

I suggest trading him in for something smaller. A little less Godzilla.

Knowing how to put him back isn't the problem!

... it's the... doing it part.

[ Especially since his family is currently MIA, and it's NOT LIKE HE'S CLUMSY OR ANYTHING WITHOUT THEM, buuuut. ]

Then how is it done?

[ Riiiight. Just listening to the chaos in the background. ]

[buckingly]

You've just gotta get him dried off!

... which sounds easy, but... [ When you're dealing with a turtle the size of a skyscraper... :|a ]
