Apparently in this odd place Basil's new body couldn't decide if it wanted to be in the mouse form or human. If he wasn't panicking he would have come to the conclusion that the flipping between forms was in response to his emotions. And he would be correct. He also would have found that fascinating if he was in the right mind set. He had been able to escape from the place that he had burned with magic.
The poor man was now in a clearing pacing and muttering to himself. "Sight hounds: Greyhound; variations Italian, Hungarian, Polish, Rampur, and Spanish. Whippet, Borzoi, Saluki, Irish Wolfhound, Scottish Deerhound, Afghan hound, Sloughi, and Azawakh."

Aly was going through the forest walking about. She loved the forest and everything about it when she noticed a man pacing back and forth. The man seemed to have a panic attack. Aly decided to shift into her prgasus form and go find help. Hopefully she could find someone.
Meanwhile Aidan has been walking through the same part of the forest. The young white and black haired man noticed the same particular incident. He didn’t expect to see a man panicking in the center of the woods. He knew that the man first needed to calm down and it seemed that all the guy was doing was uttering the name of dogs.

As the young crafter was on his way home with his new collection of rocks stones and gemshe started to notice how a small crowd had formed in some part of the forest. There was a person on the ground resiting dog names. One person staring at it. And a familiar face leaving the scene. This was most likely to find some help he assumed as aly was not someone to leave when someone needed help. Or so daniel thought.
Moving closer to the whole shabang daniel began to understand what was going on. It was not new for him to see a panic attack. He had them before. He just did not really know how to deal with others having a panic attack.
He sighed. What would his father do. He was a doctor. Somewhat. Maybe the man needed to be grounded. As he decided to step in he gave the person watching the man a smile and a nod. " I am not great at this so, please keep an eye out for anyone else passing by" he mumbled.
With that the blonde sat down next to the man giving him enough space but making his presence known. " dogs ay? I used to have a labrador goldenretriever. She was my best friend when i was small. German Sheppards are cool as well i think. They look beautiful. Do you have a favorite breed sir? You seem to know a lot of dogs."

"Scent hounds: Bruno Jura hound, St. Hubert Jura hound, Bloodhound, Otterhound" Basil continued as he passed. He was unaware of the pegasus flying off to go find help. He was also unaware of the white and black haired man observing him. He shifted between forms with each dog listed. "Griffon; variations Nivernais, Grand Vendeen, Grand basset vendeen, Petit basset vendeen and Briquet vendeen. Basset hound; variations Artesien Normand, Fauve De Bertag-" He stopped as the voice of someone talking to him registered.
Blinking Basil looked around for his cousin, who was usually the one who could get him out of his panic attacks. Instead of his cousin a blonde haired blue eyed young man, who looked to be in his early twenties. "If you're talking about small breeds then it's Cavalier spaniels. Bigger breeds would be Belgian Tervuren." He responded to the question that had been used to ground him.
"What the hell is going on?" He asked hoping that he wouldn't have to elaborate on what he meant by that question.

Daniel smiled weakly as the man seemed to snap back at reality. Well guess this was his good deed of the day.
"do you promise to not freak out once i tell you?" the blonde slightly teased. "you are in the magic realm." he then explained. "basically you were chosen by this place and now you can travel between the two as avalon and the realm seem connected. Dont ask how i am not an expert." he admitted

Aidan stood up even if the guy did ask for clarity on the situation, explaining to a man who was just in a panic a few moments ago was clearly not the brightest idea. Aidan was more concerned about the persons well being and the person looked like some cockie kid who wanted to serve brownie points. He walked up to the both of them. This was going to be a hell hole if the guy ends up making things worse for the guy who was panicking just happened to have magical attributes. "It's okay. Things are alright though. " The blonde has clearly not seen a guy panicking before. The first thing to do is to calm down the guy, not explain Hell btw you are in a magical world. Surely if you want the guy to enter more of a panic, tell him. "Here take some of these berries, it has a calming effect and I promise you they aren't poisonous. Well Blondie isn't actually wrong. I am from this world, so I can explain to both of you the attributes. Did you two end up getting some type of discs in your world?" The river dragon said. Aly was still flying around trying to find some help.

Sadly that only opened up more questions in Basil's mind. He was chosen? Why? What exactly did that entail? Basil felt another panic attack coming on. Since he had someone here to answer his questions, he pushed it down. He tapped each finger to his thumb multiple times in rapid succession in order to delay the oncoming panic attack.
When another person came into view, Basil's fingers no longer tapped his thumb. Instead, they tapped the air, almost as if he was playing an unseen piano. "Thanks but no." Basil declined the offer of the berries. Taking things that were said to calm people down didn't have a good track record of actually working for him. He nodded in response to being asked if he had received a disk. "How does that explain the sudden magic powers and being able to change between a mouse and a human?" He asked.

"No problem." Aidan gave a shake of his head and put the berries away. "The way things usually work in this world, are probably similar to how they are in reverse. The disc must have a portal connected with them that makes it able for humans to cross over and the portal chooses those powers and your species for you. That would be pretty much the gist, easiest way you could say it's magic." The white haired guy didn't like the way things were going he wasn't usually one to speak and when he did mistakes would often happen. He took a deep breath and calmed down a bit himself.

Daniel looked up as a more stoic looking guy approached the both of them. A native most likely. Good he could tell the man more about the magic realm then he could. Maybe word himself better
While the blonde did not apreciate the obvious side eye given by the man he responded by smirking and throwing his hair back over his shoulder causing his green earings to glisten. Why what a goof observation he was indeed a dashing blonde.
Trying to shake off the clear judgement with making jokes to himself he sighed as he looked at the little guy who had more questions for them. "well.." he started. "when I first got here I was not as startled as my magic realm form sort of looks similar to the one i had in avalon" he explained. "however its rumored that in the magic realm you take on a form the realm sees fit for you, so excuse me as I am not a doctor but shapeshifting could mean that you like being a human but like to hide away like a mouse might. Or.. That you are fast on your feet.. Again not a doctor. But hey you like dogs! So maybe you like other animals as well? Maybe the magic realm decided you got an animal form that way! " He tried to be optimistic maybe help him see the good part however it turned more into some strange rambling.

That... actually that made a lot of sense to Basil. He was human in the real world, but his brain wasn't wired like most people's. In fact sometimes he and Justin would joke that his mind was similar to that of an animal. A more sentient and intelligent animal but still. He thought about how clever mice actually were, and how much he had in common with them. True he had always compared himself mentally to a Border Collie or a Kangal Shepard, but a mouse wasn't too far off.
"I have always been more at ease around animals than I have most people." He said after a few minutes contemplation.
