"Yes... my stuff is real and can be taken out. I know the thing is related to dreams, but this is reality, but just in a different placement. And yes, it is really something to be kept in check. The dreamshard was abused in the past."

Vienne drinks the last bit of tea. "I can guess how, even without knowing all the specifics."

The cup is placed back down, and it's idle spinning continues. "Well, only thing I can think to ask is, does everybody there have wings? And... Do they work? I think the news said you could fly."

"Oh, they work. I have other powers too. But not everyone from the other Earth had them or magic. My kind of magic person is called Skymage."

"Ah, neat..." Pause. "So, C-... Ah, can I..." Obvious embarrassment.

"Touch your wings, sir- I mean, Felix?" A small smile, trying to not look as stupid as she thinks she does.

Blink, then a smile. "Sure... Just don't pluck any feathers."

He offers her one of the wings.

"Of course, it's attached to you, would be stupid."

She stands up and walks over to the offered wing, then lightly trails her hand down the wing.

"That tickles," Felix says.

His wing flays a little, brushing against her.

Soft, neat feeling--

And then she gets brushed against. Vienne immediately locks up in place, and stops moving. She slowly then retracts her hand and takes a pair of steps backwards. "I didn't mean to, well..."

"Huh? Are you alright?"

She straightens herself out. "I'm fine? I didn't mean to inadvertently tickle you. I just wanted to feel it after all."

Vienne sits back down in her seat.

"It is okay, no harm done. I guess even in my world people don't realize the wings can be ticklish."

Vienne nods her head, but keeps her head looking down at the end.

It's undeniably in front of her, this unknown place between universes. Even if she knew some sort of philosophy, it wouldn't help that her mind is already running near max capacity trying to be conscious of anything that could harm her, now or later. Throw in on top of that trying to remember everything she was just told and understand it, stay polite and courteous (which she feels she is doing badly at), and also start thinking about her own pocket... Then she doesn't like being touched, and will likely have to explain that somehow...

The snap of her brain overloading is nearly audible. She slumps in the chair, the simplest thing to stop worrying about. "I need... A moment to think, sorry."

"Take your time, as much you need."

"I... Think I'd rather be outside of any pocket right now. Back on Earth."

Mental recentering...

"Should acquire a set of maps for you. That might be a good idea for time."

"I can get maps myself, but it might be a good idea get news about me in the media. I can only get those after sleeping."

He thinks for a moment.

"Do you want something you could pawn for money?"

_"Oh."

She straightens up a little. "I'm alright for money, if that's what you're asking. If you want me to sell it for you, I could do that."

"I meant for you. Thank you, but I don't need money, at least not for now."

"Well, what are you intending to pawn? It'd be good to at least have an idea of how quickly you could get money for something."

"I didn't had an specific idea, just something portable and fancy in case you needed cash. You haven't seen inside, but my dimension's trademark is overdecorating everything and I wouldn't miss tacky vase number 56. I might have jewelry somewhere too, but haven't looked."

The dimension's trademark is-... Later.

Head shake. "No need. I have enough with me, and unless there's a big need, I suppose I'll have my dimension soon."

Sigh. "I... Still would rather step out of here for a little while. Even if there isn't much of an idea right now."

"Oh, yeah. Sorry," Felix says standing up and starting to lead her to the portal.

"We should set an hour or date for your return, I can't keep the portal open all the time."

Vienne is following after him, of course. She takes her backpack with her.

"That's new info. Well, would it require me going to sleep to make my own way here? Assuming that I can open your portal, or make my own."

"I mean, I can keep it open, but I shouldn't because someone else might see it. This portal can only be opened if you have one of my other powers. You can make a portal to your own dimension and then one here."
