He'd nearly forgotten about his dream. But right now, the green... stuff was distracting him. His hand hit something solid and he gave an experimental push. The solid barrier was suddenly incredibly weak and broke easily. He fell through with a cry, landing hard on the ground with the green goop all over him. It was everywhere and, as he soon found, inside of him. The brunette gagged and coughed up the green goop until his lungs were clear.
He grimaced once he was able to breath. That was going to hurt for a while... and ew, it was in his hair...
"Ugh... wh-what's going on?"

"Good day. You've just been born. How are you feeling?"
Well, Fugue had never really been an extremely helpful guide in greeting people despite how long he'd been doing it for.
The man dropped the bundle close to the other but just beyond the slimy, gloppy mess surrounding the broken cocoon. He yanked the towel away from it before holding it out for the other.
"My name is Fugue. Here, you might want this. If you think about it, you probably don't remember anything. I'm here to help you out."
At least he was trying a different approach to the situation...

The newborn man stood up and away from the mess, trying to get the goopy stuff off as best he could (at least the towel was absorbing it...). And then he froze. "Don't remember anything but-"
He was right. No matter how hard he thought, searching for any memories from before the green stuff, nothing was coming to mind.
Well, except that dream. But he didn't want to think about that. It was a nightmare he would rather forget. Then again, he didn't even understand what had been going on in it. Except that it was incredibly sad and he felt like his heart was shattered.
But why?
He shook his head. "Nice to meet you, Fugue," He plastered on a smile.

"Yeah, it's nice to meet you, too." He released the towel before sorting the rest of the provisions out. "Welcome to Edensphere--all who come here are born like this. No memories of anything, no recollection of identity or name... nothing, really. Other than a dream you had before you were born."
Finally having sorted all the stuff out, he held out the clothes for the other to take.
"This is quite a strange place. But, first things first--you'll have to choose a name for yourself, alright? Just... something that comes to mind, you know? Or something that seems right? Maybe something from your dream, even?"
