Red soon enough entered the dining room, and seemed a bit surprised to see Sarah there. But he smiled and sat down across from her. "I guess he was able to bring you here. Good."
As the water was being heated, the doll maker came back to the room. "Ah, Red, glad you could join us. I was wondering whether or not I'd be able to get you both here. Honestly, it was a little more difficult to get Sarah here, probably because she's human and I'm not used to accessing her dreams." The man then seemed to catch himself as he looked back to Sarah. "Ah, that is, these dreams aren't really controlled by anything other than me. If I wanted to make Red happy by allowing you to meet me, I'd have to get into your head for that to happen... no, wait, that sounds worse."
