"Eh?" Klaus slurred as he opened his eyes sleepily and then tilted his head back, looking at the pretty lights. What? It smelled different and then he turned his head, he saw big hills and grass. Hell, he felt the grass under his feet and between his toes. It was so strange. He giggled, unable to stop himself. "We're outside?"
"Yes." Koschei let go of Barty's hand and looked down the path ahead of them and then back at the lab. "We have to go forward, not backwards. All three of us... four of us? Is he -- Is Theta still...?"
He didn't want to leave him in the lab, all alone.
"Do you see them, Koschei? The stars." Theta was smiling, arms outspread as he looked up. "I want to go see what they see. I want to visit all of them too. Don't you see that it's beautiful?" He sighed and shook his head, looking over at Klaus. "He never sees the little things. He worries too much."
"...I think so." It looked at if Klaus was looking at some kind of ghost, anyway. Barty was trying to interpret it as best he could. "We... We need to go where houses are, right?" He wondered what direction that was.
"He likes the stars." Klaus informed Koschei, who hadn't taken the time to really look at them. He was in planning mode. His eyes were on the road leading away. "You should look at them, One."
Koschei looked at Klaus and then tilted his head back, looking at the stars twinkle in the sky. They were beautiful. He hoped to have more time to appreciate them. "Pick a path and stick to it. That's what they say. So let's walk along here and eventually, we'll see a 'house' we can have."
Already leading the way, Koschei went ahead. Klaus watched and then turned to Barty. "The outside is beautiful. Do you like it?"
"You are no fun, fuddy-duddy," Theta informed Koschei, who couldn't hear him. he still elected to walk next to him, so Klaus and Barty could have their talk in private.
Barty made sure to keep a hold of Klaus's hand, following behind Koschei who seemed to at least have some kind of plan. He was hoping that one day he would have plans too. "I like it," he confirmed, "I like the trees."
He gestured at them. They looked so different from what he had expected. Bigger and they had more presence. The way their leaves rustled, it was was if they were speaking. He wondered whether he could command them.
