(( The face on the screen is mostly impassive. But the eyes are a mix of confusion, irritation, and some small bit of amusement. He sat through the orientation, listened to everything that was said, and still has to ask... ))

Is this some kind of joke? This is all pretty elaborate, I have to give you credit for that. But, uh, can we stop playing now?

Um... it's a lot to take in. I'm not really sure I've wrapped my head around it yet.

Being dumped somewhere you weren't expecting nor willing to go will do that. I imagine time is needed to at least figure out how to survive until we can go home.

[waitingtobegin]

It's all so bizarre...

[whrrenah]

It is!

But, think of it this way: Our own respective homes are probably just as strange and unusual to them because we don't carry this weird magic.

[waitingtobegin]

Are our homes randomly snatching people up to live in them, though?

[whrrenah]

Not my donut, in particular. But I'm sure if it happens here, it probably is happening in another dimension, too.

[waitingtobegin]

Does that make it okay? 'Cause someone else might be doing it too?

[whrrenah]

I'm not saying that it's okay, sir. I'm saying that magic is what it is, and it's very jarring to people who didn't grow up with it.
