Negi hadn't felt cold like this since he had lived in England. It was familiar in a way and made him miss his students and family even more. Months had passed it seemed and they were still no closer to figuring out anything about this place. People still showed up from places unknown and so did creatures. So far he hadn't even had a reason to tap into his higher magic, the dark curse of Erebea was dormant as far as he could tell. Probably repressed by whatever it was that dulled all supernatural abilities here. There was one time, around Halloween, that things had almost gotten out of hand, but Negi's own magic had given out due to the strain and it had worked out in the end

Sora had gone for another bite of his burger when Clare asked her next question, and to be frank, Sora looked a little silly sitting there with his mouth agape holding his sandwich about two inches away from his mouth as he tried to process the question. That didn't make any sense, how did Clare know who Donald and Goofy were, and what they looked like.

"I... I... How?" Give him a minute here, he'll remember how to talk soon enough.

Negi lowered his own sandwich, realizing that Sora really was talking about THE Disney icons here. He was about as flabbergasted as Sora but thankfully he wasn't staring with his mouth open. Instead his face brightened and he smiled, "Wow! You know THE Goofy and Donald?! That's amazing Sora you really have been everywhere!" Was Negi going to question HOW it was possible, no, not after he had come to this world where people could come from any reality. Well, okay, he'd probably ask more questions once he got over his starry eyed expression.

Sora shook his head, hoping he could get his brain to function properly again. Things seemed to have taken a very strange turn, stranger, even, than what Sora was used too. Hopefully the conversation wouldn't take a turn to what every world Sora'd been to was like, Clare probably wouldn't handle it too well.

Right, we had a conversation going here.

"But how do you know about them?"

Negi chuckled, this probably wasn't going to be easy for Sora to hear. Still, it's not like they were hiding it and besides the cat was out of the bag now. "Well, where Clare and I come from Donald and Goofy are characters created by a man named Walt Disney who starred in several cartoons along with Mickey Mouse. They're...uhm...very recognizable icons," Negi said, hoping he wasn't doing too much to shatter Sora's view of the world.
