Video; Important questions okay
[While most everyone seems to be suffering from the heatwave, Dorian seems less than annoyed by it all when the feed initializes. Now, he's not wearing his robes, and his dark shoulders prove he's wearing an outfit without sleeves, but he seems perfectly comfortable, more so than usual, one could say.
He looks rather pleased with himself, also, and while most of his surroundings aren't in view, it's plain the device is nestled on a desk surrounded by very untidy notes in a flowing hand and that said desk is surrounded by bookshelves that are equally in a state of disarray. No one every accused Dorian of being an orderly worker.]
Hello, Genessia! You know, all this talk of a heatwave, and all the lamentation thereof, have gotten me thinking about weather. I know, I know. It's the topic of bores and the unenlightened, something to fill the void at an awkward social gathering, what have you. But, the reason I bring it up is simple: this weather is much more similar to my homeland, which, coincidentally, is in the north of the land from which I hail.
[He folds his hands in front of him on the desk, leaning forward slightly in interest.]
What I would like to know is this: is warmer weather where you come from associated with the north...or the south? Call it a research project.

I wonder if that would explain the weird things people from my world are saying. They're talking about things that I should know about but I don't.
If another version of me shows up, it's gonna be too weird...or my wife for that matter.

[He chuckles. What an interesting prospect.]
Not keen on meeting yourself, are you?
no subject
Nah, not really. I think it would just feel too weird.

I know what you mean. Do they come from your future then?

[He shakes his head.]
I'm not sure. It's hard to tell much of anything. THe ones who are here aren't exactly on the best talking terms...one just seems to hate me, but I don't know why. The other two were on the other side of what was going on back home...we're doing our best not to bring the war here, but I'm not thrilled at the thought of talking to them more.

[Dorian knows something of being guilty by association, though, and, frankly, it royally sucks.]
Small world, and all that. You'd think, though, seeing as we're all trapped here, they'd at least try to be civil. It doesn't seem very advantagious otherwise.
no subject
And yeah. They say they're going to try not to bring our fight here, but I just never know. I won't go after 'em if they stay peaceful, but I'm keeping my guard up.

But fortunate. It sounds as though people may be relying on your survival.

I suppose it's good that at least some good came of it. Sometimes goin' through a little personal change isn't such a bad thing.
