    You go for your shades, but find that you didn't bring them with you. Now you're just looking awkwardly at him as he comes to.

    You clock him in the nose to knock him out. He remains conscious.

    Why is she hitting you? Why are your pants smoking? Is she still trying to murder you? Why is she on the same bed as you?

    More importantly, your pants appear to be smoking. You wave your hand, fanning it in an attempt to put it out, and are successful. Your pants being on fire at the last thing you want to wake up to.

    Karis checks her pockets and finds them empty as usual. She keeps most of her gear on her earrings anyway.

    Gene checks his pockets and finds his keyring and SPATULA OF RIGHTEOUSNESS intact. Thank god.

    What now?

    You are now Karis checking her skin pocket. So that's where you left that poker chip.

    You are now Gene checking his skin pocket. Unfortunately, you don't have anything stored there right now.

    That would be Gene. You stumble outside into a small hallway, the other doors presumably leading to other bedrooms. You walk down the hallway and down a few stairs to the barroom, Kells leaning back, with the room empty apart from those two boxing guys from last night at a table, talking and drinking tea. Are they always here? Kells notices you arriving and speaks up.

    "So, you're up. Welcome to the second day of your existence."

    "Woo. Karis just tried to set me on fire. Is she always like this?

    "She's just hung over. She'll be fine in an hour."

    "No, having a headache is hung over. Trying to murder someone is not.

    "She's fine when she's sober. Don't worry about it."

    "Whatever. If she tries to kill me again, you can have her."

    "All I want from her is the hundred or so Marks that it'll take to cover her tab and damages."

    "Is that a lot?"

    "Not with the cheap furniture it isn't. But anyway, if you're going to-"

    He stops as Karis stumbles into the room.

    "Kells, I'm going to need the Good Stuff."

    "You know, you've got a big enough bill already."

    "I don't care, I just want to remove this excavation squad from my skull, ok? Now hit me."

    He shrugs, and pulls out a small bottle of blue fluid, pouring it into a shot glass and slides it over to Karis, who downs in immediately. She sighs in relief, before turning her attention to you.

    "So, you. We're going to get you some new gear.

    You take a look at your incredibly generic clothes. You suppose you could get some new clothes. You're keeping the boots though. The boots be comfy as fuck.

    "Ok, fine, let's go."

    As you turn to leave, Kells stops you.

    "Just come back here when you're ready, ok? I've got a few things you'll need to know and something to give you."

    Intriguing. You agree to come back, and head for the exit. Karis stops to give Kells some money to pay for the damages. You wonder just how big her salary is anyway. But enough of that, time to go outside.

    You both walk outside, and you get a good look at the town.

    It's a fairly busy place, with a bunch of people going about their daily lives around you, people heading to work, talking with people and that other stuff that normal not-you people do. The buildings are all spaced apart, and there can't be more than thirty or so in the village. You'd estimate the population to be two hundred or so. Karis lets you take a quick look around, before addressing you.

    "So, where would to like to go first? Clothes, or gear?"

    What will you do?

    You express your desire for food, and in particular cheese.

    "Cheese?"

    Yes, cheese. You know, made from milk, comes from a cow?

    "Cow?"

    Oh god what hellish world have you fallen into? You turn and around what?

    "Then what the hell is he selling?"

    You turn her attention to the cheese stand to your right.

    "Then what the hell is he selling?"

    You proceed to mimic a popular sketch with the only man who seems to know what cheese is, but lacks any of it. This tomfoolery ends with you punching him and proceeding to head to a general store to pick up breakfast.

    What will you do now?

    You can't fit all those generals in your pockets! You and Karis decide to head to the other general store, the one with the "Now not literal" sign on it.

    You are now General Eisling, and you are following the young lad who attempted to steal you. You wonder just why he wanted to do that. Perhaps he was just attempting to compare your dimensions to the dimensions of his pocket? You see that he has an officer of the law with him, and decide to leave him alone. You're sure he won't be tempted to try to steal anything else.

    You are now Gene, and you are starting to get tired of being insane. Stealing everything? Next you're going to want to turn invisible to steal people's spatulas. You will not stoop to their level.

    What will you do now?

    You do so, and nothing happens, but Karis is looking at you weirdly. You hear some shuffling behind you as some guy who appeared to be tailing you runs off. Hmm.

    "...Were you trying to surprise that guy or something?"

    "Yes. That is exactly what I was doing. It worked, didn't it?"

    You stand in silence for a moment.

    You are now disappointed. If you could just figure out two more syllables to add to it, maybe...

    Oh hey, food. It's a small old timey general store, meaning everything is lined up behind the counter. There isn't all that much bread, since there's presumably a bakery nearby, but you and Karis buy a couple of loafs to have breakfast. You also pick out some weird fruit that looks like a cross between a pear and an orange out of curiosity. Karis buys some mystery meat, and says she's going to fry it into something usable back at the in. You hope she uses her powers of setting things on fire with her mind for good this time, and not to set establishments and your pants on fire.

    You now have food. What will you do?

    You head back to the inn and set yourselves down at a table to have breakfast. The bread is luckily normal bread, and Karis demonstrated the practical use of controlling fire by rolling up her sleeves and proceeding to use her hand as a stove and pan. The meat is odd, and something you don't recognise, but it still tastes fairly good. Come to think of it, do they have bacon in this universe, because if they don't, you swear to god you're getting right the hell out. The orange-pear thing is also fairly nice, so you at least know the food here doesn't suck.

    You also achieve this act in less than thirty seconds after the meat is ready. Even Karis seems impressed. A few uneventful minutes of breakfast later, and you're ready to head back out.

    What will you do?

    You head to a tailors, since apparently regular clothes stores do not exist in this village, and think about what you want to wear.

    What will you wear?
