[ Time to move to stage two: make Jim's back worse. ]

Fine. But don't bitch to me about it later. Those boarding house beds are pretty uncomfortable.

[verbol]

Geez, you sound exactly like my old doc from home.

[unorthodoc]

For a little while there I think I was your old doctor from home.

[verbol]

Doctor, coroner, drug dealer. Quite the resume there.

[a beat. ]

The monster was real. Probably the realest thing in that place.

[unorthodoc]

[ Of course it was. Nobody in this town comes from a normal place. House can no longer convince himself that monsters aren't real. ]

Did you find out what it was?

[verbol]

The kids back home called it a Demogorgon, but that's just a name from this game they play. So honestly? Not really.

[you're welcome danny]

It's from some other world under our own. Real hellscape. Looks like Hawkins if the apocalypse ran through it twice. Could have been human once, maybe. None of the scientists I talked to had a solid answer.

[unorthodoc]

That was why you were in the gulag? Because you found it?

[verbol]

No. That's a longer story.

[unorthodoc]

Tell it over cards.

[verbol]

Oh, absolutely. Sure the guys would love to hear about the Russian invasion.

[unorthodoc]

The Russian invasion of.. Indiana? Were they trying to turn the cows into Bolsheviks?

[verbol]

I’ll tell you that over cards, too.
