[And that finger snap is enough to jolt the poor, worn-looking young man's attention straight to Izzy. Those eyebrows slightly arch at the sight of the very pretty and mysterious girl (he's only spoken to those he's been familiar with so far in Somarium) and it takes him nearly a full moment to find his tongue to answer. Remus had almost forgotten about this phone...thing during his nap.]
While I won't deny being vaguely confused, I can assure you that I am mostly well.
[He finally manages to give the girl a sheepish smile.] I seem to have woken up at an inconvenient time. Last I remember I was in an actual bed... Hence the confusion.
[And another one? Why were these girls so suddenly concerned with his well being? Weren't Sirius and James supposed to be grabbing their attention instead of him?]
Oh yes, I was only admiring the full moon. [Not exactly a lie...]
[Forgive your dull friend and his extraordinarily boring broadcast.
Remus starts abruptly at the sound of his dear friend's voice. There are just about a million things running through his mind, but, of course, he somehow manages to choose the absolute lamest reply of all.]
[James waits for a bit more information; and when, predictably, none comes; clears his throat and tries for the usual...
Humor.]
You sure, mate? I mean, it's horrifying. A full moon, and instead of transforming into a most feared and venerable beast, you transformed into a human instead. And not just any human. An incredibly nitpicky human, with a long bucketlist of pesky morals and higher-than-thou catchphrases, like, 'Sirius, you aren't supposed to put that up your nose.'
How should I comfort you in your time of need? I'm all ears.
[It's the last bit that he means, Remus; if Moony needs to talk about this at all... he certainly will be all ears.]

Good. You never know. Especially when people just kind of...hang out on rooftops looking vaguely confused.

[He points towards the Dreamberry, which mostly just looks like he is pointing awkwardly at the screen.] I'm still getting used to this device.

Merlin, how things do change when you're in a fictional dreamworld somewhere between Absurd Street and Inexplicable Avenue.]
Mate...? All right, there?

Oooooh do you feel the weight of that stare, dear Prongs? Can you feel it?]
