...Has anyone seen my shoe?

[Anyone else getting the strangest sense of deja vu?]

[Bryn knows that voice. It's been a while, but she recognizes it immediately.]

Nick??

[miseducating]

Ah, yes?

[WHERE THE HELL IS HE? AND HOW DOES SHE KNOW HIS NAME?]

[brynkitten]

[Bryn's never had anyone come back before, so she doesn't realize that he won't remember her.]

Oh, I'm so glad you're back! Where are you?

[Splee, her friend has returned!]

[miseducating]

I am sorry, but, who are you?

[He's cautious enough not to give away his location to complete strangers. Besides he's got no clue where he is.]

[missmimmi]

You... have lost your shoe?

[miseducating]

I have, ja.

GERMAN AWH YEAH

[missmimmi]

[HMMMM.]

Do you speak German, perhaps?

/gang signs

[miseducating]

[Woooah, slow down Mimmi.]

In a way, yes.

[3wayforjustice]

... Your shoe?

[miseducating]

Si, it is gone.

[3wayforjustice]

That's your biggest concern right now? Your shoe?

[miseducating]

Should I not be concerned for it?

[Sure enough, just as Bryn warned a short way up there, Alex is quick to respond to this post as soon as he hears it. He's thrilled, make no mistake about it!]

Nick!! Holy hell man, I was worried about you!

[miseducating]

[a;lsk;asld'a;sld]

...Alex, yes?

[allthesame2me]

[And that moment of absolute elation slips just the tiniest fraction.]

Ahh, yeah .. [The moment of silence stretches and then a soft exhale from Alex can be heard before he switches to [VIDEO].]

You don't remember, do you?

[miseducating]

[Nick stares hard at the video in his book. And his first thought is how the heck a book is able to play videos. And his second thought is who the heck is this guy?]

I am afraid not, I am sorry.

[helluvachin]

You're missing a shoe? Where did you lose it?

[miseducating]

I am not sure.

[helluvachin]

Oh. Uh, maybe you can get a new one?

[miseducating]

Yes, I am to check the...clothier tower.
