I see.

Perhaps it would be for the best that you continue to call me by that name, then.

[Though, again, he can really hardly call that a "name".]

Perhaps "Dee".

That sounds a bit better.

[Oh, yeah. Something is definitely Up.]

[h2no]

[YEAH SOMETHING IS REALLY BAD.

dad mode: engage.]

okay dee
you gotta stand up and pat yourself down
because i'm pretty sure you got a knife on you somewhere and stabbing yourself ain't good for no-one

[d33tached]

I did, yes, though I have since left it with the rest of my belongings at what I believe is my residence.

[Speaking of which.]

Do you happen to know if I live with anyone else?

It seems that I woke up next to someone this morning, though I have no memory of who he might be.

I think I probably offended him a bit with my reaction, though I was understandably quite confused.

[h2no]

okay good
i'm not 100% on where you live, last i knew you were living at heropa 002 with niko
i guess you woke up next to kaneki? he had white hair, right?

[d33tached]

He did, yes.

I suppose we must be romantically involved given that we were sharing a bed.

[And that D33 was given an alarming kiss or two shortly after waking up.]

Truly, I can't remember a thing about him.

Nor you.

How is that we know each other exactly?

I do thank you for your assistance on this matter.

[h2no]

i don't remember how we met... i think it was a couple months ago at a swear in or something
a swear in is like a big event where people like us go for a social evening
this is gonna sound mad but
we're not natives here
me and you, and a lot of other people
we came from elsewhere. do you remember anything about where you came from?

[d33tached]

[It takes him a minute to answer. Something about the question settles heavy on him, but he can't quite be sure why.]

I know that we're in a different world. Isn't that right?

I've been reading this file.

I don't remember where I've come from. Though, I do get the inclination that I'm meant to stay here.

[That he's not supposed to go back, that is. He really can't shake that feeling for whatever reason.]

[h2no]

i think so too. you're safe here.
i know i'm some random guy you don't know right now, but being here is infinitely better for you.

[d33tached]

Is where I've come from more dangerous?

Do you know of it?

[h2no]

vaguely
you weren't happy where you came from, just concentrate on having fun in the sun here

besides, you didn't want me telling anyone and you're not d33 anymore
you're dylan now

[plus also dylan might got and tell someone else.]

[d33tached]

[God, something about that name just really does not sit well with him.]

I'll use "Dee", I think.

Not Dylan.

I don't really know who either of those people are.

[Dylan or D33, that is. He's been called "Dee" twice already today. He'll take that one for now.]

[h2no]

whatever you want, it's your choice

[which he can tell dee never had much of before.]

[d33tached]

Very well, then.

Do you suppose there is anything else I should know?

[h2no]

that.... depends on how much you remember about general stuff

[and for how long... jesus, is he going to be like this forever now?]

let's just
are you hungry? i can take you out so you can see like
i dunno how money works and shit

[d33tached]

I'm fairly certain that I still understand how money works.

[And that he still likes food.]

I suppose that it would not be out of the question to meet with you.

It would appear as though I am in a town called "Nonah" at the moment.

Is this one of the cities that is made easily accessible to the "ImPorts"?

[He's been reading, see?]

[h2no]

nonah is a city
i'll come to you, yeah?
i'm going to bring someone you like
he's my dog, called mightyena
you liked him a lot, i don't know if you still will but
maybe he'll jog your memory.

[d33tached]

Very well, then.

I will send you my location.

[Lo and behold, he does actually remember how to do that.]

I thank you for your assistance, Archie.

[h2no]

no prob

[he's there not long after, though mightyena bounds ahead to say hello to dee, boofing and wagging its tail at him, sniffing intently.]

Action

[d33tached]

[D33 starts a bit as the dog bounds toward him, but its excitement isn't hard to read, and as it gets closer the smallest of smiles breaks out on D33's face. He can only assume that the man following him is this "Archie" he's been speaking to. Still, he doesn't wait for permission to lean down and run a hand over the dogs head, still smiling, however cautious that smile is.]

Hello, there...

[He's talking to Mightyena.]

Re: Action

[h2no]

[he fully expected this, tbh. mightyena is a distraction tactic. get dunked on.

mightyena pants happily, licking at dee's face.]

Seem familiar, at all?

[d33tached]

[D33 scrunches up his nose at the licking, but he doesn't exactly look displeased - he almost laughs.]

I, ah--

No, no I'm afraid not.

He...certainly looks unlike-- Well, what I imagine a dog to look like.

[Not that he can really...remember any dogs that he might have seen. Aside from the dog that had been in his room this morning.]

What did you say his name was?

[h2no]

Don't worry about it, then. His name is Mightyena.

[it boofs when it hears its name.]

He's from my world, so he's a lot smarter than the dogs here. Ain't that right?

[d33tached]

[Ah, that's right. Everyone here comes from a different world - try wrapping your head around that for the second time.

[Oddly enough, though, D33 is having a much easier time doing so this time around.]

I see.

[He continues giving the Good Scritches.]

He is quite endearing.

[Glancing up at Archie now, he straightens.]

That would make you Archie, then. It is nice to meet you.

[Er...]

Again...I suppose.

[h2no]

[mightyena licks his hands, even when he's done. it just goddamn loves those scritches dude.]

Yep! S'me. [he suddenly realises d33 doesn't remember what he did and stalls for a moment, but he's not gonna drop that on the poor guy. not the time. probably not ever the time.] Do you, uh, remember what kind of food you like? 'Cause I don't actually know. I guess... twinkies? You had twinkies once.

[d33tached]

[Twinkies, Twinkies...]

I...think I might know what those are, actually.

Something like a cake?

[Of all the things to remember. Jesus Christ, Dee.]
