What made you believe this? That we're where they said we are instead of it being a dream?

( Or worse, though Claire's ideas of worse would probably not match up to anyone else's. That said Claire can't say that she really took in too much of what was being said to her, so she does need the confirmation )

What did you do? Or want to do?

( Because she doesn't know, not yet. There was considering going out from the Dollhouse and trying to find something but to end up in another world entirely? She doesn't know where to begin )

So you didn't take the punch?

it hurt it just didn't knock me out
i'm not a lightweight

Of course not.
I'm glad that it was what you needed.

yeah totally
it made me feel tons better

As long as it didn't affect anything else.

nah, the bruise just made me more ruggedly handsome and sort of dangerous-looking

It seems like you gave the impression you needed.

exactly. happy ending all around.

So you didn't give anyone a reason to punch you?

i definitely didn't say that

Most people would need a better reason than "make sure it's not a dream" to punch someone.
Unless you're also unlucky.

i'm definitely unlucky and i've definitely given people reasons to punch me before
let's leave it at that

And yet you make it easy to invite questions.

cultivating an air of a mystery used to be a good way to get numbers
hard to break the habit now

You might want to try, unless you want to give more answers than you'd like.

how's that work?
seems like it would be the other way around

The more questions you invite the harder it could be to avoid giving something away.

ha, fair enough
ah well, i don't need the numbers anymore anyway

That should help you.
