[It's right at that moment the elevator chooses to speak up: Keep it in your pants you two; none of that hanky-panky stuff on my watch.

...Which Hawke actually doesn't mind because he's not sure he wants a hallucinating (and intoxicated???) Anders doing the lightning trick on him.]

When we get back, love.

[onetrackminds]

Where are we?

[because details are still blurry and the elevator looks strange. And yeah, he's a little bit high.]

[hawkethat]

Currently? In an elevator.

[Which glides to a stop and opens its doors with a pleasant "ding!" just as he says this.]

And now on the proper floor.

[He says as he guides Anders out of the elevator and into the corridor.]

[onetrackminds]

I'm... this is strange.

[If he didn't have Hawke right there, he might be really scared right now. But Hawke is a perfect distraction.]

[hawkethat]

What's strange, love?

[He would assume the whole hallucinating thing, but he figures it can't hurt to make sure.]

[onetrackminds]

Everything, really.

[yeah, it's the hallucination thing. He's holding on a bit tighter now.]

[hawkethat]

Maybe you ought to sleep it off?

[It's a lot harder to worry about something if you're not awake to worry about it, after all.]

[onetrackminds]

[he shakes his head; he's feeling too wired to sleep.]

I'm alright with you here.

[hawkethat]

You'll let me know if it starts to get worse?

[It's not like he can do much, but still...]

[onetrackminds]

I will.

[you'd probably be able to tell, Hawke.]

[hawkethat]

[Now Hawke's holding Anders more tightly]

Good.

[Yeah, he probably will. 8(

Oh, look, it's home sweet home. Such as it is. The door gives them a friendly greeting before sliding open and allowing them inside.]

[onetrackminds]

[And Anders looks around, a bit confused for a moment.]

Did we paint it? [pause.] I like it better now.

[hawkethat]

No, we haven't. Why, what does it look like now?

[onetrackminds]

Kind of green. And yellow. [sigh] Should I just assume nothing I see is real?

[hawkethat]

Green and yellow?

...I don't know, possibly? Maybe just anything that seems to be suddenly changed from how it was before?

[Oh, look, here is Pearl, running to greet them!]

[onetrackminds]

Like that new cat?

[sorry, Pearl.]

[hawkethat]

...That's Pearl.

[Pearl doesn't care, she's hopping up on Anders legs now and pawing at his knees for attention.]

[onetrackminds]

She makes a pretty cat.

[hawkethat]

She's flattered, I'm sure.

[Does this mean Anders will pet her now???]

[onetrackminds]

Let's sit down.

[he might. It's not as if he never pets her normally.]

[hawkethat]

[To the couch, then!]

[It's such a long journey of a few steps. Pearl is up in Hawke's lap in an instant once they're seated.]

Is there anything I can do?

[onetrackminds]

It's not bad, it's just... strange.

[here, Pearl, have a few pets.]

[hawkethat]

[Gets nice and comfy leaning on Anders and drapes an arm around his shoulders]

How long has it been since this started?

[Pearl will enjoy those few pets with all of her fluffy being.]

[onetrackminds]

I'm not sure. Maybe an hour?

[keeping track of time like this isn't easy; for all he knows it's been three hours or more.]

[hawkethat]

You've just been wandering around since?

[Worried Hawke is worried. D:]

What happened to the...frog?
