Billy blinks.

H-Hold on for a moment there, Devi, this is all a little much!! He can catch from her implication that she's.. been to multiple worlds, or something? Worlds other than her own? It would explain her question at the end there, but it's still such a wild question to ask to a guy who's been nothing more than your average Victorian era sailor that Billy looks utterly baffled by it for a moment.

Only a moment, though. He doesn't exactly like looking like a fool, so he quickly tries to gather his wits enough again to respond - telling his brain to keep up, no matter how confusing her different experience of reality is compared to his own. ]


Yes. If you are speaking of traveling to different worlds. [ Ugh, those words almost feel gross on his tongue. They're too weird! He doesn't like saying them, even though he does! ] It is not exactly considered.. normal where I come from.

[ Billy definitely sounds like he's trying to put this as diplomatically as possible right now. ]
