Well... I can't say I can help you. I have no idea where you'd even start with things! I'm not a... 'role-player' myself, so I can't possibly know where you might send me.

I actually think it would be exciting to be in a game! I mean, well, duties aside. Are you sure the Candy Kingdom will be alright without me?

Your Kingdom is just fine. When you're sent back to it you will be sent back to the exact time you left. It will be like you were never gone.

The worst things have happened when I haven't been around to watch over it! It sounds fun to go somewhere, though...

There is a lot to find here. I mean after all as I recall your friend is the only human in your universe. There is an abundance here.

You mean Finn? He's most certainly the last one! A relic of an ancient time, really! I can't see there being another.

Well with multiple universes there are some who haven't been exposed to the Mushroom War.

Because you're looking at a human right now.

Nonsense! There's got to be something different about you. Unique wonderful powers, perhaps? Retractable wings?

No, nothing. If you feel like comparing my DNA to your friend you're welcome to.

Well... I suppose it might be possible... It's too bad, though! You and Finn aren't biologically compatible to repopulate the human race.

No such luck but given the information I just told you, you should be aware that there are female humans around too.

It would be a great accomplishment for science were I able to rescue an entire species from the brink of extinction!

Aw, games are totally rad PB. Once your mun finds a good one, I'm sure you'll have an awesome time.

It would be a most wonderful learning experience, that's for certain. Are you in one, Finn?

I am! It's really cool. Met a bunch of friends, and I was even able t'get em' all Christmas presents!

..things are kinda quiet where I am though, but I have a feeling an adventure is gonna happen soon.

Oh, my! I can't imagine how bam-a-loozled you must be getting without any adventuring to do!

Well, it ain't so bad! A friend of mine gave me a treasure map for Christmas- ...so that's an adventure jus' waitin' to happen!

Well, if there's treasure to be found, you're the guy for the job. Is Jake with you to help?

..Well....no. He's..not.
...

..none of you guys are there, actually.

Wha... really? Why don't you tell the game's ruler to bring your buds?

Haha...yeah..

I'm afraid it don't work like that Princess. Only their muns decide if they go or not, it's kinda uh...personal preference I guess. Like- ..your mun could let you join me in my game if they wanted but...that's their decision. I can't do anythin' about it myself.

Nonsense! What sort of backwards system is that? Where is the will of the people in these matters? Surely you can appeal to the game's government!

[ no, PB, that's not how it works... ]

Wha- ....Peebs, they ain't got no government or whatever. The city I'm in lets people come an' go only if the mun wants. ..the only reason I'm in a game is cause my mun wanted me to be there.

And I can't leave unless she takes me out.

I demand a word with your mun!

...

Mine says that's not a thing that can happen. Oh, hoops... [ someone's not used to being bossed around. ]

....Heh- ...don't worry, I'll be ok. And you'll get used to things. I'll just have to keep hopin' my mun can....enable someone to bring you guys into the city- ....whatever THAT means.

Hmm... Could it be possible that you're lonely, Finn?

.....

Well....I mean...yeah. ...course I would be....without you guys.
..but I mean I do have....friends there.

..so it helps.

[ she reaches out and places her hand on Finn's shoulder. ]

Aw. I'm really glad, then, Finn. That you're making lots of new friends.

Yeah. ...Yeah, me too PB.

So, tell me all about your new home!

Oh! Well uh...it's a place called Ink City. It's full of different people, and creatures- ...giant robots....and humans PB! I've actually met some real humans!

How totally bomb to hear! I've been told many humans aren't yet extinct in these 'games'!

Yeah! I was pretty surprised... but it's awesome PB. And the ones I've met so far are real cool too. They're adventurers, like me!

A common trait in the species, perhaps... it's wonderful to hear, really! If you have to be in a new sort of dimension, it might as well be one of humans.

Uh-huh! ..there aren't too many of em' though... but they're there at least, and to me that's all that matters.

I'm very happy for you, Finn. I didn't think you'd ever get to meet another of your kind.

Thanks PB. Neither did I!
