+1 Lady Flame

Welp. She knew Amnesty Lodge was weird? But opening a door into a multiversal Nexus was sort of above and beyond Kepler weird™. The last she knew, there were a bunch of goat people causing horrible accidents and then she tried to get to the cellar of the Lodge and now she was here.

"Uh....hi?" she asked, trying to grin and look innocent. "Am I dead and hallucinating? Because my life up until right now? Might indicate that is an issue. Sorry."

They're like Alice in Wonderland, if she'd stayed home and Wonderland came to her every couple months. They're learning to just accept what they don't understand and move on, because if they spent all their time going 'WTF' over every strange thing they encountered, they'd never get anything done.

He blinks at her and nods slowly, because he's not sure he does know all of the You-Knows, but he's pretty sure he's got the gist.

"Well, uh, you might want to let Mama or Barclay know about that when you do get back. I mean, I found my way here through an antique hope chest. Who knew it was magic, right? So, you just got here?"

Prying eyes and listening ears, Ned!

"Yeeeeeeah, I really hope that You-Know-Who doesn't try to, uh, get out of the kitchen. And through the door. Um. Anyway! I guess we should, um. Go looking for a talking lion or something? If this is really like Narnia. Or maybe we should tell Mama? I mean should I try to go back now?"

This is hellaciously confusing. But also kinda cool, and she's starting to warm up to the idea that they're in faux-Narnia.

Okay, so Ned has been known to be less than discreet. He's pretty sure no one here is going to bat an eye at real magic, though.

"Are you kidding? This is an opportunity! Did you see the PSA video? All kinds of worlds meet here. Not just ours and potentially Narnia, but...you know, parallel universes. Maybe even--"

He's less than discreet but he's not going to just babble about Sylvain in a public place, either. He coughs meaningfully. "Maybe familiar places we don't usually get to look around. If we're really lucky we might learn something!"

"Last time I was here I talked to a fox wearing a shirt and tie. It's wild. And hey, if worst comes to worst I can let you back home through the hope chest I came through."
