It was unsettling.

Thankfully, we haven't had to worry about that here.

[wtfox]

Yeah, that's a relief! ...though this is really strange for an afterlife.

[ercnerd]

You think so?

[wtfox]

Well, yeah! I grew up hearing, like... if you're good you'll go to heaven, and if you're bad you'll go to hell. This isn't really either.

[ercnerd]

Yeah? That's different from the Underworld I know. There really are all kinds of dimensions out there.

[wtfox]

I guess so! Haha, the people from the churches back home would lose their minds if they knew.

[ercnerd]

Are you going to tell them?

[wtfox]

[she shrugs]

...they'd just think I was lying.

[ercnerd]

Haha. Of course. No member of the clergy will believe that the afterlife is actually a daycare.

[wtfox]

Even if they saw it themselves, they'd probably think they were hallucinating.

[ercnerd]

Well, for their sakes, I hope they don't ever see this place.

[wtfox]

Yeah, me too! It'd be, um, bad.

[ercnerd]

Bad is one way to describe it . . .

[His tone takes a contemplative turn.]

What's going to happen to this dimension once it returns us?

[wtfox]

...I mean, hopefully it won't go and drag a bunch of other people here...

[ercnerd]

Does that mean we should break it? . . . It should stop if we deal with the one responsible for starting it in the first place, right?

[wtfox]

In theory, yeah. It should. If it's, like, a person.

But if it's just this world itself...

[ercnerd]

. . . Then we'll just have to tear it apart, piece by piece.

[wtfox]

...yeah! That's also an option.

[ercnerd]

[Nodding, he climbs onto his feet and stretches his back.]

Now that we've explored the possibilities, it's time for some food. Have you eaten yet?

[wtfox]

[time for applesauce...]

Not yet... it's kind of hard to get excited about the food here.

[ercnerd]

The food's not the most appetizing, but you shouldn't skip a meal if you can help it . . . not that it's much of a meal.

[wtfox]

It's less of a meal and more, like, assorted snacks.

[SIGHS.]

I want to eat actually decent food again.

[ercnerd]

It does get tiring, eating the same thing all the time.

[wtfox]

I swear, if I go back home and someone puts applesauce in front of me, I'm throwing it in the trash.

[ercnerd]

You don't have to go that far. Just give it to someone else.
