[Hup! Taking that! He hops to his feet and dusts himself off. Hm there appears to be a slight height difference between them. John isn't sure if he's okay with that bluh.]
It's really seems to be what we keep doing. I mean, this place is pretty weird on its own, but you should have seen where I just was the other day.
[ Oh yeah, there is totally a slight height difference. He's not really that surprised, though. Maybe you'll even catch up to him, John.
Or Dave will just keep getting taller and taller. You've seen Bro. ]
Somebody mentioned getting dragged off to the Ottoman Empire, which is fucking ridiculous. [ Because it lasted from like 1300 to the 1920s or something. Talk about time travel. ] Where'd you wind up?
Guess we'll see, since I'll be here for a while I'm pretty sure.
[ Eyebrow arches higher. ]
Huh. You were definitely around back in Sburb, though fuck if I know how this time shit works. I'm still getting used to not being in like fifty different time loops, so I'm only guessing when I say I've been here a week.
Yeah, but this time is different from sburb time, I think.
[Eyebrows go up.] Really? I... well, I guess I haven't really tested the windy thing much since I've been here. I've mostly just used it to float around and balance glasses on sleeping guys in the cafeteria, heheh...
Not saying it is, but you'd think I'd know how to find a loophole. A whole week and I've got jack shit.
[ Shrugs, hands in his pockets as he does. ] What brought us here is apparently a time compression. Even if I don't get it, exactly, I wouldn't be surprised if it's put a limitation on my time hoppin'. You'll probably be fine, Dorothy.
[ Anything he was about to reply with gets shucked out the window, and his eyebrow raises again. He hasn't been in John's presence for very long, but he still feels a disturbance in the force. ]
obviously it is the swords fault.
and not you know...
that the wielder is totally lame!
and also smells like butts.

One day.
[ He slants a smirk his way and offers him a hand up. This is really kind of surreal. ]
I can't believe either of us is here, dude. Seriously it's like we're boarding one crazy train after another.

[Slight grin.] A pirate ship! It was actually pretty fucking awesome.

[ Though, hang on. ]
How long have you even been here?

Oh, um. Let's see ... [And he pauses to think.] I've been in Garden for a month, but this world? A month and a half!

So uh, how is that by the way? Can you still do all of that? I've still got the windy thing.

I've still got it. But I can't skip back to before I arrived here, and I can't really go forward more than a couple of minutes.

[He was going to open his mouth to say something else, when he felt a disturbingly familiar time-space hiccup. He froze, eyes going wide.]
