[This is not where Dewey is supposed to be. Perhaps that isn't surprising; Dewey doesn't always stay where he's supposed to be. He's also alone, which is equally unsurprising, because his family is not always the most attentive as his brothers can easily drive his parents to stress-borne distraction. What is unusual is the place in which he's found himself; a city, expansive and impressive, the fountain and carousel in the center, all the streets filled with people, many of whom look like they came right out of fiction.

For his part, Dewey isn't fazed by being here alone. He's fine, this place looks amazing, and he has a new toy that he's poking at which is way cooler than anything he has back home - plus, it seems like it's actually new, and not broken. When you're fourth in line, legitimately new things are unusual. The feed activates, and he smiles.]

Hi. I'm Dewey.

[He's banking on his adorableness to help him out a bit here, but he's not really playing it up.]

I think I just got here. I'm not totally sure, because I'm not sure where here is, but it's definitely not where I was.

[Because he was just on a dude ranch in New Mexico. But he gives a tiny, easy shrug.]

But that's okay. Can somebody tell me where I can get something to eat? I want pizza. Or, if you can order delivery on this, I'll be on the carousel.

Okay, bye.

[And true to his word, he's off to the carousel.]

Hi.

[He has, in fact, secured plenty of food. But hey, a little more food is always a welcome prospect, so he still lights up at the offer.]

That sounds great. Where's the Jasmine Dragon?

[Charlie sends him directions before speaking to him again.]

See you in a bit?

Sure.

[One more grin and the feed is gone.

A little while later, though, Dewey does arrive at the Jasmine Dragon. Of course... by this point, he's actually eaten a few times over.]

[He gets a friendly grin and a wave from Charlie. And then a concerned look.]

You okay, kid?

Other than being kidnapped by an alternate reality, yeah. Everyone seems really... nice, so far.

[Spoken like a kid who isn't really used to everyone being so nice.]

[That's a feeling she knows well.]

You're handling it a lot better than I did. I pitched a fit.

[She threatened to burn the entire place down. That's not pitching a fit.]

You still hungry?

I didn't really mind getting some time on my own - I don't usually get a lot of it. But I guess I didn't realize how long I might be here.

[Which is starting to be concerning, but he still manages to smile.]

A few people gave me food. I think I could probably have some dessert, though.
