[Jean is out and about doing who the fuck cares what. It's fourth wall...what were you expecting, actual plot and character development? Just come bother him.]

Comments

[wipesfaith]

Huh? Are you serious?

[An aggravated sigh.] Oxygen is air, lumber is...it's wood, you use it to make fires, build houses, carts, furniture, whatever you want.

[bufudine]

[Ok, fire he understands. He understands air, too. But everything else?

Serph shakes his head.]

Most of this is unfamiliar.

[His gaze flickers back to the tree.]

Very little of what I see exists where I was.

[wipesfaith]

Then...what do you even have where you're from?!

[If even something as basic as a house is unfamiliar.]

[bufudine]

[A good question. Serph tilts his head, considering. A short pause later--]

Rain. A sun we have never seen. A temple that reaches beyond the clouds.

[Those are the most prominent features. But most importantly...]

People.

[Who turn into demons.]

[wipesfaith]

Sounds like a real fun place.

[bufudine]

["Fun." He'd told Gale about fun before, but he doesn't really understand what that is. Still, he's dallied enough. He should be searching. But one last thing.

A head tilt.]

Your name?

whoops forgot about this

[wipesfaith]

It's Jean. Jean Kirstein.

And you are...? [He doesn't particularly care, but whatever.]
