Carlos hummed. “Well, I said the short answer is ‘yes’. But the long answer… is ‘Yeeeeeesssss….?’ Drawn out with an inflection at the end, as the one answering isn’t sure if what they speak is entirely the truth. Lemme explain: There are, technically, various ways to leave. You can drive to Desert Bluffs, an equally weird and seemingly inescapable place. Or a portal to the early Jurassic to the early Cretaceous period could open and one may be transported to a time before Night Vale even existed. Or you could simply stop existing. That happens too, sometimes. But I myself have been trapped in a Desert Otherworld that seems to be an alternate universe that runs very closely to Night Vale in the multiverse. So, technically… you can leave this place. But being picky about how you leave… that’s where it gets tricky.”

He nodded, closing his eyes.

“Great. Yes. Wonderful. Thank you.” he said. “Well, all that stuff can get fucked, because I will find my way back to my world. What about you? Are you happy to stay here the rest of your life?”

Carlos frowned slightly at Sylvain, but in response to his question the scientist shrugged and nodded. “The town is very interesting – I honestly haven’t seen a place like it before, and I can always find myself to be very engaged in my work here.”

“U-um…” The little boy approached Carlos. He looked like…. Max..? “Sir..?” He gently pulled on Carlos’ sleeve to get his attention. He even sounded like Max! “Have you… maybe.. seen my cat?” (ihopethisisgoodyoudonthavetoanswer-) ((@reversemaxsearchhistory))

Carlos looked down at the boy, a little surprised by his apparent sheepishness. Max was usually more confident than this.

Immediately Carlos turned to face him fully. “Hey – no, I haven’t seen a cat. What does it look like? Do you need help looking for it?”

@reversemaxsearchhistory

“Th-they…”
Max shivered, clearly fighting back tears as he tried his best not to
cry. “Sometimes they h-hit me… or.. lock me outside and don’t let me
ba-back in…” He whimpered, tears slowly forming in his eyes.

What in the actual hell? Carlos thought angrily. That was unacceptable. “I am so sorry to hear that, Max,” he said softly. “You’re right – that is not something parents do.”

“U-um…” The little boy approached Carlos. He looked like…. Max..? “Sir..?” He gently pulled on Carlos’ sleeve to get his attention. He even sounded like Max! “Have you… maybe.. seen my cat?” (ihopethisisgoodyoudonthavetoanswer-) ((@reversemaxsearchhistory))

Immediately Carlos turned to face him fully. “Hey – no, I haven’t seen a cat. What does it look like? Do you need help looking for it?”

@reversemaxsearchhistory

“Yes, yes! Help would be nice!” He smiled at the helpfulness of the other. “She- hmm…” He looked around, thinking. “She’s black! She has…. yellow! Yellow eyes! And a white spot on her nose!”

Carlos smiled at the boy. “She sounds cute,” he said. “What’s her name?”

“Sabrina!” He stated happily, bouncing up and down with joy. “And she really is cute! And small!”

“Is she? Well, let’s find her so I can see her.” Carlos was allergic to cats, but eh… that’s what medicine was for. Besides, this kid (who looked a whole lot like Max – were they related?) needed the help so Carlos was going to give it.

“Thank you so much!” He smiled, happy that someone was helping him. “Come on! I think the last time I saw her was somewhere over there!” He pointed at some bushes. “Oh! Right! I think I should tell you my name too! I’m Max!”

Carlos blinked at the child. “Ah… um, that’s – that’s a nice name!” Okay, so there was a multiverse to deal with. No biggie – Sleepy Peak was a surprisingly supernaturally active area, he was coming to discover. “You know, you kind of remind me of me when I was a kid. I think I looked a lot like you.”

“Really? That’s cool!” He smiled. Thanks to a little tooth gap he had a lisp whenever he talked. “Uh- what is your name, sir?”

“My name is Carlos. I’m a scientist.” Carlos looked around. “So, let’s go to where you last saw Sabrina and see if she probably came back there.”

He nodded, quickly going to the bushes. “You’re a real scientist…? Like, those who do all the math and stuff..?”

Carlos nodded as he followed after the boy. “Yep, I am,” he said. “I’m actually here for science – I’m checking out Sleepy Peak Peak for volcanic activity, though my work has kind of expanded to the surrounding forest as well.”

“Woah…” Max was in awe. “You must be very smart! And do you have a lab?”

“Well, yes I do!” Carlos said. “I have one here, though it’s a very temporary one – my real lab is in my home in Night Vale.”

“Night… Vale?” He curiously tilted his head, raising a brow. “I’ve never heard of Night Vale…” He glanced away slightly. “Is it like… a-a town? Or a city?”

Carlos smiled at him. “Yeah – it’s a small desert town. Rural, you could say.”

Max smiled softly, a quiet sigh escaping his lips. “It must be peaceful living there… it’s probably quiet, unlike the city i’m from..”

Carlos couldn’t help the bark of laughter he made in response. “Haha! Oh, Night Vale is a lot of things, but it’s not peaceful,” he said with a grin. “

“It’s not? Well, then what’s it like living there?” He seemed interested, looking up at Carlos.

“Well… it’s exciting,” Carlos said. “And very scientifically interesting. I’m never bored there in regards to work… or anything else, really. It’s a strange town, but I really enjoy it.”

“It sounds amazing…” He grinned slightly. “And it sounds way better than home…”

Carlos looked at the boy curiously. “Does it?” he asked. “Why do you say that?”

“W-well… normally I wouldn’t bother strangers with this but… I-i don’t really have a good life back home…” He rubbed the back of his neck, exposing his, with bandaid covered, arm. “Y-you see… my parents… they don’t really act like parents… most of the time…”

Carlos started to frown. “How do they not act like parents, Max?” he asked, watching the boy carefully.

“U-um…” The little boy approached Carlos. He looked like…. Max..? “Sir..?” He gently pulled on Carlos’ sleeve to get his attention. He even sounded like Max! “Have you… maybe.. seen my cat?” (ihopethisisgoodyoudonthavetoanswer-) ((@reversemaxsearchhistory))

Not so Villainous (closed w/ theblackestofhats)

theblackestofhats:

The
flinch was entertaining, but the rest of Carlos’ reaction?
That was a tad less expected, though the flattery certainly wasn’t
unwelcome. Well, he supposed that the man was a scientist with
interests centred around oddities just such as he. “Heheheh, it can
be good fun, too.” He commented, amused, as he extended his own
hand to grasp the extended right hand and shake for a moment, letting
go shortly after.

“Indeed
– your blog was quite an interesting find.” He responded,
inclining his head slightly. “I had you traced from it, so that I
could bring you here.” Admittedly, that was a creepy thing to say
to anyone, but he wasn’t averse to being considered creepy – quite
the opposite. Contrary to Carlos’ probable intentions, though, Black
Hat’s smile grew more fixed at the joke, his posture a little
stiffer. While he had indeed taken that name deliberately, the
circumstances of that were not anything he’d have chosen. “Quite.”

No
longer in the mood for dramatic lighting, or lack of lighting, he
lashed out with a tendril abruptly extruded from his back, flicking
the light switch. It became quickly apparent that they were in some
kind of room, likely intended for storage, and that Carlos’ car was
nowhere in sight. “I understand you have particular interest in
studies relating to what some might term cryptids and the more
mystical side of biology?”

The apparent tightness in the other’s posture in response to
the joke didn’t go unnoticed to Carlos. He mentally catalogued the reaction for
future reference – he might need to be a bit more clever when joking with this
person.

The light took Carlos by surprise and he was left blinking
away some very minor sensitivity. He looked around, rubbing at one of his eyes,
and frowned when he realized that his car wasn’t there. He had more equipment
in there – including his Danger
Meter. He really should learn to wear that wherever he went…

“Um, yeah,” he began. “Or, well, I really have an interest
in anything scientifically interesting. It’s just lately one of my projects has
been regarding some strange sort of life energy in Night Vale, and only barely
I found some things that appear as cells…” He paused in his explanation to look
at Black Hat. “You found my blog? Oh – I had no idea anyone would actually come
across it… who told you about it?”

“U-um…” The little boy approached Carlos. He looked like…. Max..? “Sir..?” He gently pulled on Carlos’ sleeve to get his attention. He even sounded like Max! “Have you… maybe.. seen my cat?” (ihopethisisgoodyoudonthavetoanswer-) ((@reversemaxsearchhistory))
