Dunno how.

Yeah, it's definitely a real lizard head.

Is the rest of him not a lizard then? [digimon hybrid...?]

Seems human t' me. Just tall. Can't miss him if you're lookin'.

I guess I'll have to look later. I've been a little busy with some other stuff.

Gettin' adjusted or somethin' else?

More like getting acquainted. There's a lot of ground to cover here.

Feels like an understatement.

Yeah, but at the same time it's a little easier than I thought? So that's just another thing that's kind of weird.

Anythin' around here that ain't weird?

The food. [it's kind of a joke, but it is in fact food he's used to.] That's one of the things that's the most normal.

[He laughs!]

The fried chicken ain't as good as the stuff at home.

But the burgers ain't the right color. The buns for those are usually pink.

[a slow blink.]

Maybe for you. Why are they pink?

[shrug?]

Somethin' about the flour?

I don't know if I would trust pink flour either to tell you the truth...

Hasn't killed anybody. 'sides we got a real great chef back home.

Still wouldn't be enough to convince me, man, sorry.

[...]

So what's it actually like where you're from? Besides pink burger buns.

'm from the North, so it's cold. Climates about as bad as the people. Ain't a lot of towns or cities up there either. Plenty of seafood.

Territory's split up between wizards, and we fight over it.

[he was following along to a point.]

Wizards?

Magic users, sorcerers, mages, whatever ya wanna call us.

So what kind of magic can you do?

Offensive magic.

...which is like what?

Makin' sure my bullets always hit the target. Causin' crippling pain. Stabbin' without usin' a knife. That kinda thing.

[huh. well...okay.]

Does your magic actually work here?

[SIGH!!!!]

Nah. Nobody's magic seems t' be workin' here.
