[Sam knows this isn't a dream, he doesn't have the imagination for it. What he doesn't know is where the hell he is and if anybody from home is here, too. He should play it cool right? Yeah, he should play it cool.]

So, I'm lookin' for a guy, well three guys. One's always on my left.

[Nice. Kinda cryptic, too. He's not much of a spy, but it might be enough to make Nat proud.]

The second guy's real small and no fun at picnics. [Even better.] Third, uh, likes birds? Might've been a bird at some point, it's hard to tell.

[There's a pause. He's gotten off track.]

And there's a girl. Sweet, has an accent, could kick your ass if she thought about it long enough. If anyone has any idea what I'm talking about, cause I sure don't, hit me up.

[Here's to hoping they can crack that code.]

[Daisy knew exactly who he was talking about because she knew him. Well, of him. She's never actually met him.]

Possibly. Why are you being so cryptic though?

[aboutzero]

Just playin' it safe. Guy wakes up in a strange place, he's gotta be careful about what he says and does.

[And amuse himself while doing it.]

[morethan084]

Sadly there's nothing 'safe' about this place. I'm sure I'm not the first one to tell you that.

[aboutzero]

You are, actually. I've heard weird, nuts, strange, but not that.

[Not that he wouldn't assume some caution of his own, coming in the way he had.]

Gotta name? Mine's Sam Wilson.

[morethan084]

Doesn't surprise me. People tend to reach for the few good things about this place and hold onto it.

[Not that she's never done that before in her life. She got it, it was a coping mechanism. Her psychiatrists told her that, and she hated hearing it because it was true. She just didn't want to lose focus on what was important for a lot of people here, to get back home.]

Daisy.

[She's not going to admit that she knows who he is just yet.]

Sorry you got dragged here, Sam.

[aboutzero]

Unless you're the one who did the dragging, there's no point in apologizing.

[Not that he doesn't appreciate the sentiment.]

But, thanks, Daisy. How long you been here?

[morethan084]

Trust me, this would not be the place I drag people to.

[Is that a good thing or a bad thing?]

A little over a month, and as you can tell, I love it here.

[aboutzero]

Is that sarcasm, it's hard to tell. [No, it's not.] Care to share with the class why you wouldn't bring people here?

[morethan084]

Well, there's the fact that there are these things called 'Events' that happen a lot around here? Or the fact that death doesn't last here and they can and well take away peoples memories or use them against them?
