"Can we just, like, stay here?" said the boy who definitely took a deep breath once they got through the portal and there was sky above him again and, you know, not some leaking underwater biodome, which was so much fun when that boy also had crippling claustrophobia, and then there was the whole fact that the streets were roaming with bad dudes that looked like they'd staggered right out of all those lovely new nightmares he'd been having in regards to the experimentation that were supposed to have been enacted on him if he hadn't been Niflheim's Top #1 Luckiest Clone Baby.

Yeah, he was definitely seriously considering just booking a portal right back out to Insomnia for the week the moment they got back, because duuuuuuuuuude. DUDE. Don't give him talking animals aka the greatest thing in the entire world and a weekend chocobabysitting the most adorable creature to ever exist and plunge him right into this.

WHIPLASH was a serious condition!!
