[ a fortunate thing about inspecting his posessions first: he got most of the basic information just by watching the interactions happen on this thing they call a seal. ]

So, can wishes really be anything?

[ that in particular caught his interest. ]

Aside from going home, of course. But what if, say, I were to wish for a mountain of books--

[ whoa where did that come from???

he finds the seal in his pocket and HEY IT'S LEO ]

. . . LEO!! WHERE ARE YOU!?

action

[blindfall]

Do you have any other ideas!?

I thought I had . . . blanked out again. But if you're here, then it makes no sense.

action

[codicis]

[ no, definitely not. don't even-- ]

What did they tell you?

action

[blindfall]

[ good thing he can't see your eyes, huh? ]

They told me this is a city called Splendor or something. That's all.

action

[codicis]

[ this is why he will hide his eyes forever ]

I opened a music box too.

It's still too soon to assume anything, but we don't have anything to go by other than they told you and what I gathered from the broadcasts I was watching.

action

[blindfall]

Broadcasts? You mean--

[ takes out the seal ]

--this thing?

action

[codicis]

Don't tell me you haven't figured out how it works.

action

[blindfall]

Not really. I just heard you talking through it someway or another . . .

[ lol what is advanced technology/magic ]

action

[codicis]

Well, it's fine.

You're not hurt anywhere, are you?

action

[blindfall]

[ shakes his head ]

I'm fine, but-- how are you!? Did you see whoever did this!?

action

[codicis]

I'm fine. I didn't see anyone. When I came to, I was already here.

It was the same to you too, right?

action

[blindfall]

Yes, exactly like that! But-- you don't really think it was the box, do you? that's stupid!

action

[codicis]

[ for once, he agrees. ]

We don't know for sure yet. Even if it doesn't make sense, it's the only explanation we have right now.

Do you have a key?

action

[blindfall]

Huh?

I don't-- think so.

[ hasn't checked at all, more like. ]

action

[codicis]

[ takes out his. ]

I'm sure this one opens a house in the Wonderland district. Did you really check to see if you don't have anything else other than the seal?

action

[blindfall]

[ OH-- he checks his own neck and . . . YEP, THERE'S A KEY ALRIGHT. ]

Our keys look the same . . . you don't think everyone else has the same one and we're meant to fight for our place, do you!?

[ ignoring that second question because NOPE he hasn't checked. ]
