He wishes he was me.

I don't know. Not yet. But something is coming - the cards have predicted it.
And how do we do that?
He is being careful, but our little friend is showing us his hand. Now we must call his bluff.

It doesn't need to be proven to be shared.
I...
Yeah. Usually, headaches like that only happen when...
Anyway. Point is. You're right. It *must be* the cause.

Nothing which could be proven as of yet.
Though it is a fact that you are one of a few who has crossed the void and found herself here, and someone has attempted to communicate with you. It is the cause of your head troubles, n’est-ce pas?

I have to admit, I don't usually think about *why* I end up somewhere. I just know that if I *am* somewhere, it's for a good reason. The reason will usually find me.
But, if you have theories...

*Very good*. But we are far from finished. I am unsure if you will ever be able to return to the world from which you came.
I confess that it is strange to me that you should be chosen to come here. Perhaps it is so that our adversaire knows your personally?

Sometimes the only winning move is to refuse to play?
(Her voice sounded completely devoid of emotion as she spoke. Fidgeting with the toy in her hand.)
In my experience, that tends to make people angry. Things get worse before they get better.

The metaphor does not matter: A game, a parlour trick, a stage in which we all are actors . . . I find these words so trying. We understand the point which is to be made, why keep at it? *But*, ( he says, finger in the air, smiling, ) it does reveal something to us. That those who are against us --

Ah. (Opening her eyes, she fished out a fry. And the toy as well.) I'm not trying to be bitchy, but if things are heating up, I'm going to *have* to be ready, aren't I? Regardless of how I'm feeling?
What I mean, mon amie, is that things are 'heating up', so to speak, and it is important to me that you are ready.

Do you want a detailed report of my entire body? 'Cause that'll take a while.
Being vague suits me much more than you. How are you *feeling*?

(With a sigh, Valerie closed her eyes. Taking stock of how she felt. Categorizing it with a numb detachment.)
I'm fine. Better than yesterday.

Yes, a crow.
How are you feeling *now*? Physically, mentally, transdimensionally.

Yeah, I eat meat. I'm not a picky eater.
... ... Wait. They give out *toys and food?* At the same time?!
This might be the best day of my life.

Better is a poor Valerie who walks in her integrity than a rich Valerie who is crooked in her ways.
I bought you a Happy Meal. Do you eat meat? The toys, at the moment, are Bakugan and Only Hearts Pets, so I bought two and gave one to Daisy without a toy in it.

Missing me.
Who knows what I'm doing when I'm not with you, Daisy?

You're quite right. It's inconvenient to have to do anything yourself, by hand, isn't it?

Don't be scared. If you want a toy, go into the McDonald's and ask for one.

No, they can't forget, it's in the constitution, it's IN THE CONSTITUTION
Please, eat your Happy Meal. It's a shame they forgot to give you a toy. The service at these American restaurants gets worse by the year.

Yes, how tragic . . .
Hey where's my toy

I could go take a look in the Storage Room?
So it was. And there's no more?

Ah, of course. It can be... Challenging, when something so contrary to our sense of reality is observed, something which simply cannot be explained as things stand. So, how are you finding space?

Are you interested in magic, Cassie? You have the aura for it. Not to mention that magic, I find, is a great unifier across the stars and sands of time.
