[ He rolls his eyes a little. Don't criticize him! ]

I'm building a network, ideally, and I wanted to find someplace out of the way to see if it would even work.

[vecna]

[Henry has no room to criticize portals in weird places. Let him tell you about the one he made underwater one day.]

So which other locations are on the list?

[striketwice]

[ How is an underwater portal practical... ]

I haven't totally decided, but a little of everywhere, probably. 'Cause, you know, why walk if I don't have to?

[vecna]

[SOMETIMES A MURDER HAPPENS IN A LAKE, IT WAS NOT ENTIRELY HIS CALL]

Heaven forbid you use your legs like a normal person. Is that really the only reason why you’re doing this?

[striketwice]

[ A snort. ]

Hell no. If this place goes tits up like whatever happened with the jail cells, I want options.

[vecna]

[Oh, there’s the practicality of it.]

A quick way out in case of danger.

[striketwice]

[ Come on Henry, Alec rarely does anything without a real reason. ]

Bingo.

[vecna]

[Of course. He’s not at all surprised.]

Far be it from me to tell you where to connect your portals — but then can I make a suggestion?

[striketwice]

Sure, hit me.

[vecna]

Well, why don’t you connect one to my room, too? We might not be that far apart from each other, but you never know what might happen if the whole dorm implodes one day.

[sorry literally the rest of unicorn]

[striketwice]

I mean, I could. Not sure how much good it would do you since you need me to open it.

[vecna]

[Blithely-]

Oh, you wouldn’t come to my rescue in a time of disaster? That’s nice to know.

[striketwice]

Wow, in case you forgot I helped save your ass yesterday.

[vecna]

Well, then I don’t see what the problem is. That, and I’m practically giving you permission to visit anytime you like.

[striketwice]

Fine, have it your way. I hope you know that I can't exactly knock with a portal, so you better be ready for me to drop by unannounced.

[vecna]

What’s the worst that could happen? [REMEMBER THESE WORDS LATER, HENRY] That you startle me once in a while? I’ll survive.

[striketwice]

Alright, well, you asked for it.

[vecna]

Perfect. Do you need to do anything in my room, then?

[striketwice]

Oh yeah. You know all that stuff I was doing out in the graveyard? I've got to do all that for every portal I make.

[vecna]

Then you might as well get started. Come on.

[TO HIS ROOM THEY GO?]

You can look at my spiders while you’re in there.

[No, this is not a very weird euphemism.]

[striketwice]

[ IS IT NOT? ]

Your what?

[vecna]

[IT IS NOT]

My spiders. I asked for a terrarium filled with them from the suggestion box the last time. They’ve been faring pretty well.

[striketwice]

Why am I not the least bit surprised that you have spiders? Of course you have spiders.

[vecna]

[Wow?]

What do you mean "of course" I have spiders?

[striketwice]

I mean exactly what I said.

Let me guess. You think they're really fascinating.
