[Jake had a lot of questions, and it was like a blast from the past to suddenly be around other people, to have a phone and wi-fi and all of the things that came with living in a town. No longer would he be huddled around a campfire in-between the Entity's calls. Maybe.]

Is this place really outside of the Entity's realm?

Has anyone here even HEARD of the Entity?

[Please, tell him he was safe. Tell him there would be no more running and torture, death and dying.]

How do you know that?

And no, they're not. The Entity and its killers are the only monsters I've ever seen.

I'm a detective, I detect things like that

Killers as in serial killers or killers as in like vaguely humanoid monsters with glowing red eyes and lots of teeth killers

Uh-huh. Detectives deal in the supernatural now?

I don't know if they're serial killers. I never stopped to ask them. They're all humanoid though. Well, no. Most of them are humanoid. They usually wear masks.

This one does I've seen some shit my dude

So like maybe some kind of death cult huh how do you hide from them

Sure.

Maybe, yeah. Also very carefully. I got good at hiding.

[But he hoped he wouldn't have to do that anymore here.]

You have to be, or else you die.

Yeah sometimes hiding is your best bet haven't had to do too much of that here at least

Don't think you'll have to worry too much about that here at least

What, dying? That's a relief to hear.

I've had enough of being hunted to last several lifetimes.

Yeah I mean it's always possible but so far nothing has tried to take a chunk out of me

Good.

So, Mr Detective, what do you know about this place?

Jack shit sorry basically just that we're all stuck and nothing is really trying that hard to eat us so far

That's very helpful. I appreciate it.

I guess being stuck here is better than being stuck with the Entity, at any rate.

I live to serve but yeah the cookies are fire did the old guy give you cookies they're super ducking good

I'd been wondering why I got cookies.

[He hadn't...eaten any yet, because he'd been worried they were a trap or something. It'd been so long since he'd had anything like baked goods.]

Does everyone get them?

I dunno probably tho Jerry seems like the kinda guy who'd keep em if you were a jerk he threatened to keep mine until I said sorry I kinda talk a lot

Really, I never would have guessed.

My name's Jake, by the way.

Yeah that attitude is what gets people wanting to take a bit out of you man I'm stiles I work at the fix it place in town so like if your shit ever gets broke bring it over since I'm somehow not fired

Oh. Are you why they told me there were no more spots for a mechanic? I'm a cashier there. I think. I'm pretty good at fixing things. Breaking them, too.

Maybe Adam works there fixing stuff too he's nice but kinda grumpy acts like twice his age so like if you need an adult for something he's close enough

I have no idea who that is, but I'll keep that in mind?

Wait, how old are you then??

17/m/the apartments old man cookie monster sent me to

I

You're a kid. I'm 26. And I'm living in my trailer, which apparently ended up here with me.

I am seven teen my dude practically legal

Uh-huh. You're still pretty young, though.

...Does this mean I'm getting old? Is this what getting old feels like?

You sound like my dad

So yes very old ancient even

But its okay you seem cool not as cool as my arms dealer friend but definitely cooler than the guy that threatened to rip my throat out with his teeth

Thanks.

Why do you have an arms dealer friend?
