[The comment had been off-the-cuff, and so it’s one that requires some thought. After all, the very concept implies a vulnerability that Henry is not keen on illuminating, but then again, what kind of escapism would he ever been allowed to indulge in back in the lab?

Maybe not in this way, but no differently than the usual. Don’t most people find some kind of escapism in their hobbies? Don’t you have any?
[Well, either way—]
You have to admit that their diets aren’t uninteresting, either. [Vampires, werewolves. Oh my. Who knew that he’d be pulled into a world where such things existed? Perhaps it was not all that farfetched, given what he had experienced right before he found himself surrounded by dark water in the summoning pool.]
In fact, I think I’m more intrigued by the food than the music. I’m due some browsing. Do you want to take a look, too?
