He said the last word with faux enthusiasm. 5 minutes ago, Ookla the Obstinate said: Wynn thought for a second. "Well, possessed behavior aside, you seem like a good person. Your abilities are interesting, and I find it strange that you can stand eating that sour plant." Stupidstupidstupid. Yep. I am literally the only sane person in this dimension. "I think that by definition the 'possessed behavior' was not my own. And don't worry, the sour grass will grow on you. Hopefully not in you." He smiled jovially at her.

"Tors comes and goes. I'm not really sure how it works, but I know there's magic involved. TAAron could probably explain more, if he was awake. "But where are you from? Like, what dimension? How often do you worldhop?" As she said this, Wynn walked over to her duel runner and checked its holoscreen.
