march...!!!

[hallowedly]

( Knock-knock, who's there on the dream-murmur — )

...ah! There you are. Good morning. ( It's sleep time, it's night — ) All this matter of stalls and maze hedges got me thinking you must be struggling for space under our latest... costumed circumstances.

[snaggletooth]

[ What is night if not the awakening hour of a nocturnal being? ]

You were seeking me out, sir? [ Well, as a performer, he's overly used to costumes... but given a platform to complain, he supposes it's alright if he does so, just a little.

It's expected—anticipated—! ] Yes, this heavy armor does seem a little redundant, haha! Harder to move around in than my own, as well...

[hallowedly]

And in the swelter! My, my. But you've been making your way?

[snaggletooth]

To the best of my ability, mm-hmm. I'm reminded already of our adventures in the Manhattan tunnel system.

[hallowedly]

Was that to your liking?

[snaggletooth]

Well, no, I generally prefer to avoid conflict... unless you mean the architecture itself, which was at least a nice way of getting away from the sun?

[hallowedly]

I'd wondered if your new... aspect had come with a more visceral appreciation of bloodshed.

[snaggletooth]

To the contrary, I like when most of it to stays in the body so I can get a full meal. Unless it's a nasty human host, then I don't particularly care.

[hallowedly]

So this metal cage isn't suitable?

[snaggletooth]

I’m used to performing in much lighter clothing, but I can push through. Assuming we’re talking about the armor again, sir?

[hallowedly]

I'm certainly not asking after your private performances! I don't think your friend would agree.

[snaggletooth]

Haha, that wasn't my assumption, though I can't say I understand what your aim currently is, either.

[hallowedly]

I suppose I'm only... checking in? Your circumstances have pulled on my heartstrings.

Truthfully, I'm not entirely sure how you bear so well with the... evolution of your flesh. Many would find it a distressing violation.

[snaggletooth]

Is that so?

Hm, there simply isn't anything I can do besides adapt, the way I see it? Also quite apparent to me is that this form has more strengths than weaknesses when it comes to surviving here. With a human body, I doubt I could deal with hosts half as well.

Does any of this help to answer your question?

[hallowedly]

I think it's only further evidence that you're a very resilient individual.
