Where Does Your Sociality Go When You're Chained Up with a Talking Bear?

by Stovohobo

Meanwhile, Steve the Brahgus and Chloe were imprisoned in a similar dungeon.

Chloe cleared her throat. “So…were you in accounting for long?”

“About three years, actually.”

“Mm.” Small talk was about as fertile here as Seth was sexually active. And she knew, for all the missed opportunities during camping trips.

“Where did you work?” she tried, venturing still.

“Well, I actually started over in this dimension, working for a company named OIM . Funny, actually, I’ve never noticed every company here is called OIM . Anyway, I was transported to your Earth after I was…well, you know.” Steve self-consciously scratched his beak with a paw. “And you?”

“Actually, I quit my job to help Seth on his camping trip test runs. I was hoping his job would help support us, but…well, it seems it almost got us into this mess.”

“No, his being born in the Stratus Dimension 354X did that,” Steve said, as if it cleared everything up.

“Mm.”

    Ooh, and I like the inventive addition of further material. Total twist that Steve was from the other dimension orginally, at least from how I originally pictured him, which is cool. Thanks for playing along!
