It was a relief to find someone else who agreed with his view of things, and Peter relaxed when he heard it. It wasn't enough to make everything that had happened better, but it helped his mood just slightly.

But the hypothetical question got the gears turning in his head. Roland had to be asking this for a reason, after all, which probably meant that wherever he came from wasn't somewhere he necessarily wanted to be. Peter had never considered that someone would be in that situation, but he could understand how hard it would be to come to terms with.

"You mean... stay here?" he asked, glancing around the room they were in, but meaning that whole building. "Or just... in this world?" Beyond Doyleton, he didn't know what the rest of this world was like, but maybe it wouldn't be so bad if they could just get out of the institute. He personally still wanted to get to his real home, but in Roland's case, maybe it took some more thinking.
