It was hard to judge Claude's response when the most expressive part of his face was covered, but seeing his jaw drop was enough of a clue. Still, Guy would have normally expected more of a reaction, though he got the feeling everything was a bit muted to his friend after what he'd been through last night. It was probably hard to work up the energy and effort to be shocked about anything.
"Yeah, it was pretty surreal. That's the only word I can think of for it." Guy had never experienced anything quite like it, though he didn't see it as something that was beyond the realm of possibility, either. It was easy to blame it on technology of some sort, mainly because he didn't know what else could do it. Then again, with so many worlds out there, who knew what was possible where? Landel could have all sorts of things at his fingertips depending on how much he knew, and from what Guy could tell, that was a whole lot.
"We saw a lot of people, yeah. The king of Baticul was there, along with Luke's parents and all of the townspeople. The oddest thing was that they were all talking about our disappearances" -- a fact that still bothered him, since it tore down all the ideas he'd had of how Landel was manipulating time -- "and yet they had no idea that we were right there, trying to talk to them." A good word for it was exasperating, but at the same time, Guy had been glad to have the chance to walk those streets again, even if he hadn't been able to feel anything or interact with anyone beyond feeling the ground beneath his feet.
