"You made it clear that that's what you think. We'll have to agree to disagree."
"They couldn't afford a state-of-the-art bio-hemorrhoid or whatever you call it, that's for sure." Peter tilts his head slightly and smiles, believing that to be objectively funny. "I wasn't designed, I evolved. How did you test my DNA without a sample anyway?" |

"I promise you, you're wrong. I'm all natural. I'm not answering any more questions unless you do something for me. I want my dog. Does he have any weird DNA? I'm sure you tested him too. If you return him to me I'll fill in all the blanks, but I'm not sure you'll believe me." |

The names of your parents, and their supposed professions. Got it?" "And yes, we have tested the dog. Good stock, artisanal, even, but ordinary."

Re: (IC) Lost In Dreams [Peter]
Peter decides there is little to lose and when he is reunited with Goliath, he tells him what he wants to know. Mom's an architect and Dad teaches school in the next town over. They are from Burlington, in a state far away, and he tells him of several vivid memories trying to demonstrate that he is real, despite that likely simply making him think Peter is well programmed.

Re: (IC) Lost In Dreams [Peter]
Goliath is brought in locked in a padded cage with wheels. He barks at Peter, Happy to see him.
"Burlington... Burlington... You think you're from earth. You think you're from old earth. The USA. What year? Did they give a year? Why would someone do this? Where are they hiding it? Is this for pleasure or research? are they honest with themselves about that?" Half of this is to Peter, half of it seemingly to himself. "How did you get in here? How did you leave home?"

Peter will flash his disarming smile (in lieu of negotiation) and open the cage if his interviewer doesn't prevent him. Quote:
"You're not going to believe it, but I sometimes just wake up in strange places. Strange worlds. I've been to a couple of Earths, and much weirder places. If you could tell the people of Earth in 2014 something, what would it be? I'll tell them when I get home... What is your name, by the way? That's a great outfit." |

Re: (IC) Lost In Dreams [Peter]
"I think I'm being pretty cooperative. Can you give me a room with some furniture and let me keep Goliath with me if I keep telling you what you want and working with you here? ... Tell you what Slick, I'll bet I can show you something that you've never seen on this world, if I'm right, you give me a nicer room with a bed and my pet, and I'll cooperate however I can while I'm here."
