[He can't really answer her questions; he has ideas, and theories, but there's no way to know for certain the explanations sound crazy, even with being here.]
I just know that's what happened, and somehow it works. I think we can just... Blame magic like a whole lot of other things, here.
[Right. Magic. Sam would've been inclined to call bullshit if she hadn't seen so many unexplainable things in the short time she's been here. She shoves her hands in the pockets of her nacket, frowning slightly as she thinks hard on the implication of what Chris has told her.]
And you're sure it was really me? Not some - I don't know, body-snatcher or something?
[Chris raises his eyebrows slightly to punctuate his point, but also lighten the topic a little.]
Besides, uh, I don't think any body-snatchers or whatever would think turning into you and then coming here would be a super great plan.
[Kind of not useful for the monster or spirit or whatever it is either; this place would still suck for them. He's pretty certain that this is an issue of multiple timelines or universes or something anyway, so it's all just kind of pointless speculating.]
[Chris laughs as well, opening the door for Sam to enter the store they've just reached.]
I was just thinking that. But uh, yeah, I think all our bars for weirdness have kind of readjusted lately.
[He remembers when Sam had been here the first time and she'd asked him how bad he felt the event that was going on--being buried alive--was, on a scale of one to wendigo. Their lives have definitely gotten weird.]
[Dragons. Gods. Her dead friends all alive again. Somehow even the wendigos don't seem as strange as they were at first. Is this the new metric for normal? It makes Sam wonder what else she's going to end up getting used to, the longer she's here.]
So, did we have any special requests, or are we just picking up the basics today?

pffff I didn't even notice

Like little green men, "Take me to your leader" aliens?

Is it weird that that actually doesn't seem so weird?

This shop's usually pretty good, so we can probably find enough food in here.
