"Okay. Thank you for the McDonalds. I assume for mysterious terrible world reasons I can't come back here later and ask for the same thing?"

"Uh, you'd need money. Also they won't remember what you had last time."

"I am unclear on money."

"...if you have a job, you get money to do your job, and then you give people money to do their jobs for you, like giving you McDonald's or clothes or whatever."

"Weird. Okay."

"It's... pretty popular."

"I guess there are a lot of you and logistics would be really hard otherwise?"

"I guess? I never really thought about it."

"Anyway. Thanks for coming. - I've been meaning to wash my clothes, do you know if that's something that'll get everyone upset."

"Do you have any other clothes."

"No."

"Okay uh you need quarters to do laundry and you can't get naked in a laundromat."

"I can't do it in the river?"

"...no."

"Okay. Where do I get more clothes."

"...you'd need mon- I can loan you something and you can use the machine in my dorm. For now."

"Okay. And how do I get a job."

"I'm not sure how you do it if everybody knows you're a cape. If you can learn a language in six hours maybe you can hang around the exchange students and translate things? I know somebody who knows somebody who does that."

"That sounds fun!!"

"Okay. You could also be a 'terp but that requires, uh, knowing, how, things. Are. So maybe not right now."

"Terp?"

"Interpreter. Like you'd do sign language for an event or translate a foreign speech into English on TV. But you can't be... weird... in that kinda job. You can be weird if you just translate books."

"Okay. 

I'm really not that weird. Your stupid round world is weird."

"If I were there and Elves called me weird that would be fine. You're here."

He nods. "Thanks. For the clothes and stuff."
