[So, you've survived your first—or fiftieth, or five-hundredth—day in Quiet Mounds. Tonight, it's raining—or, it's not. Maybe you're trying to get used to your new, quiet apartment. The electricity is buzzing in that way that's hard to ignore, a silence so loud it's deafening, in that poetic sort of way.]

[Or maybe you're one of the sad sacks still working at the 24/7 joints. Or their why-am-I-even-up-this-late customers. You're the reason why capitalism does this to people, you know.]

I thought you wanted to complain I hadn't warned you you'd find him attractive.

God, no. Him being attractive was only relevant in the degree that he embodies a trope that has no place in reality.

He really is sort of like a cartoon.

Did you notice his dress shirt is really long? Like, it's not his outside jacket, it's his shirt.

I didn't, at first. But then you can't unsee it.

Maybe that's just how fashion is wherever he's from.

Where else would he get it? Do you think he can sew? That seems like a dangerous skill for a man with an uncertain number of faces.

I meant he's eccentric enough he might also just be considered weirdly dressed even in his own environment.

Where are you getting this from. Do you just read books about serial killers?

No, I got teleported to another dimension and I watched a non-zero amount of anime when I was a kid.

Also, anyone who's ever entered the work force and been sorted into cubicles exaggerates someone in the office to that type of caricature. Except he's actually real.

Whoever made this place is definitely cherry-picking who ends up inside of it.

Yeah...

Though on that note, I need to make dinner. I'll see you in the morning.

[nods]

Oh, yeah. See you tomorrow.

[waves! & Swerves off to the market before hitting home]

[Food. I guess mall then library. Goes thataway]
