This bloke seemed to have arrived with a bit more dignity than Chris had, but he seemed no less confused. Although he still didn't understand this place, he took it upon himself to help as best he could.
"Bit weird this place, innit?" he asked once he'd got his tablet on the right setting. "'Specially when you first get here. Really advanced stuff they've got here. Bit like those things you hear about the Japs having, only better than that even."
It speaks! And has a face! Glitch blinked, and his smile widened. He was fairly certain that things did not usually answer back, so this was a fascinating new development in his life. Oh well, no reason to be impolite.
"Well aren't you something," he said and leaned in for closer inspection. "And, ah, yes it is weird." He glanced up and around again, wondering what the place was. Simplest explanation was the best, he had been going to- oh! "I wasn't expecting the Realm of the Unwanted to be like this."
"Who, me?" Chris leaned back from the little holo coming from his tablet, clearly confused. He wasn't really used to people looking at him with that much interest. He was pretty typical, after all. Being informed he was 'something' like that definitely wasn't the norm. Or perhaps he was talking about something else, which Chris thought (or hoped) was likley to be the case.
Although Chris was still unsure of what Taxon was, he knew its name, and that wasn't it. "Realm of the Unwanted?" he asked. To him it just sounded like something from one of his comics, though he didn't add that part out loud.
"Yes, you," Glitch replied and finally picked up the thingamabob with the little man in it. No, that was silly, it was probably some sort of image transfer device but like nothing he'd seen before. "This falls under 'really advanced stuff', yes?"
He gave a single firm nod. "Realm of the Unwanted! We were coming here to look for..." He trailed off, something telling him it'd be best to not give too much info. That something was likely the memory of his own face on a wanted poster. "...nothing important. I-I need to find my friends."
This new arrival had only been in her... tablet... for a while, and yet he had already irked her beyond reason. Of course, everything in this dimension irked her. It was only a matter of time before she did something to remedy that.
Glitch scrunched up his face. This blue lady was certainly rude. "Well, what gives someone else more of a right to speak than me? Sure, I've only got half a brain but I still matter."
At least he should, what with how he used to be the queen's adviser and all. Okay, that was a bit past-tense but he'd stand by it.

It was possible...probable that some people would not mind that but he wasn't going to confess that yet.
