Which reality?

[realitysquared]

[Being in the air isn't really... an issue.

For Palontras.

In fact, by the time anyone actually sees him inside the castle, the doctor has already circled the place as best he possibly could.

Getting out doesn't seem to be an option. Well... out of this reality.

So at any point in time now, on one's daily wanderings of the castle, they'll find... this.

Sort of quietly, curiously floating about. At a pretty good seven to eight feet or so long, he's hard to miss.

And he's making no effort to be missable.]

OH MY GOD A FRAN BOW CHARACTER. HI!! HELLO!!!

[jakeyd]

[Jake Dillinger is horribly torn. On the one hand, there's some kind of adorable fluffy axolotl dragon that looks like it floated out of a kirby game wandering around. On the other hand, it's a dragon, obviously magic, and potentially dangerous. He would have no way to defend himself from dangerous magic, being just a regular high-schooler from New Jersey.

But. But. Jake really wants to talk to the dragon. It's so fucking cute! It's a childhood dream, right in front of him!! Of course he wants to talk to it!

His indecision leads to him trying his damndest to follow Palontras around without being noticed...but then, he's a six foot two jock in a red and white hoodie adorned with several colorful pins. Trying to keep hidden from a magical dimension hopping dragon. Palontras has probably noticed him.]

AAAA YOU KNOW THE CANON

[realitysquared]

[Well... yeah. Yeah he knew someone was following him, and for a time he didn't say anything about it as he explored. Maybe they were shy. At some point they'd come out and say hello, right?

... Actually it didn't seem like that hello thing would be... happening. The human was taking an awful long time with that introduction.

... May as well meet him half way]

You know, I don't bite.

1/2 YEAH I DO!!! I mean I'm still confused on a lot of stuff but? It's Fran Bow

[jakeyd]

[His face immediately lights up, because holy shit the dragon really talks! Dragons talk in real life! That's so cool!]

Oh, for real?! [Jake hops up and takes about three steps out of his (honestly pretty terrible) hiding spot before stopping.]

[jakeyd]

[Hold on, hold on he shouldn't be that trusting.]

Uh, you aren't gonna change your mind if you get hungry or something, right?

[realitysquared]

Oh my goodness, no never! I wouldn't even consider it!

[And of course, Palontras sounded terrifically horrified to even hear someone ask if he was going to bite them.

Or eat them.]

[jakeyd]

Oh, sweet! [And he's immediately back to jogging over to say hello, not stopping until he's in front of the newest castle resident.]

Sorry if that was like, an offensive question! I've never met a dragon before, and I'm kinda new to all this magic stuff. I'm Jake, by the way! Do you have a name? Did you just get here?

[realitysquared]

A dragon?

[The word escapes him. He's certainly never heard of it before but, magic! He knew magic!]

Oh! Well there's nothing wrong with being new at something, we all have to begin eventually, don't we? Thankfully, magic is so very common, it shouldn't take you long at all to learn about it.

Hello, Jake. My name is Palontras, I did indeed just arrive here, and goodness so many questions! I haven't met such a curious human since Fran. Are all humans so curious?

[jakey_d]

Oh! 'Dragon' is like, a general name for a magic creature that flies? And is big?

[Oh man oh man, this is so cool? A magical being is telling him he can totally learn about magic and that it's common? Jake's bouncing on the balls of his feet here.]

Nice to meet you, Palontrus!

[He laughs a little before actually answering Palontrus' question.] Oh, totally, like some of us ask less than others? But I'm pretty sure we're all born with a billion questions in our heads.

[realitysquared]

Is it? Then... I suppose I must be one. How odd, I've never been called this before...

[He laughs softly, still apparently a bit thrown at arriving here but... hey. Progress!]

It's very nice to meet you too, Jake.

I thought that might be the case, it is one of your strong points as a species. ... Oh! Oh yes, do you... know where I am, Jake? I'm afraid I've wandered very far from home this time, I usually don't make this kind of mistake but... well... I suppose there's a first time for everything.

Which reality is this?

[jakeyd]

Maybe it's local to my universe?

[Jake's excitement at meeting a cool new dragon friend is finally dampened as he realizes he's going to have to explain the situation. His body language suddenly gets a lot more awkward as he switches to the more confusing subject.]

Uhh sorta but not really? Micheal says it's probably a pocket reality, and all we know for sure is that it's kidnapping people from other universes and times. Also it's really magic and can heal injuries and move rooms around? But not all injuries or rooms?? Sorry dude, I've only been here a couple of weeks.

[dustless]

[They peer out a window at...that. Monster?

Hmm. Is this a changed friend?

Frisk supposes it doesn't matter all that much. They stick their hand out and wave.]

[realitysquared]

[Oh! A small child! Palontras doubles back around to the window as they wave, the gigantic creature moving right up to the window.]

Hello! Are you a local?

[dustless]

[His talking is a slight surprise. Sounds friendly, though.

They keep their hand out. Probably not gonna be bit off.]

Um. Yes. I live here. You're new?
