David too had just gotten the talk, and though disbelieving - after what he'd been through he'd rather deal with everything rationally.
The cable man stared up at the sky, luminescent with rain, wondering how- in the middle of what had to be summer the atmosphere could be giving them autumn weather. He didn't ask, he just dropped his chin, catching sight of Ben and walking languidly forward to meet him.
"Excuse me?" A beat. "Do you know if this place has a map?"
Seeing another person was something of a relief. "A map?" Ben thought for a moment. He hadn't seen one posted anywhere, and the man didn't give him one. "No map. I think it's pretty much every man for themselves in that department."
Then again if there was a map, he hadn't sought it out. Figuring out what was where was something Ben would rather do on his own. "So you're stuck here too, huh?"
"Uh- yes- apparently with very little in the ways of an explanation," David replied. He didn't so much agree with the man that had told him he was fictional. He'd lived enough of life to know better, but it was the other things. The state of the town and everything else.

Well... he wasn't given one.
