Dean had been walking for what felt like forever. His feet actually ached and his clothing was torn in various places from brambles, errant tree branches and who knew what else. He wasn't sure when he'd started walking but his eyes were slowly becoming accustomed to the light creeping across the treetops above him. It was still somewhat dark down there between the dense trees but he could see something ahead of him. A great, gleaming circle rising up into the air through the foliage.

Frowning, Dean ran a hand through his hair and a few dried and rustling leaves fluttered to the ground around him. He was all but trudging, dragging his feet at this point. It occurred to him with sudden clarity that he had no idea where he was or why he was there. He felt like he was trying to pull himself out of a long and sticky sleep that wanted to keep him buried in some fog of numbness. Something about that wasn't right and he knew it but his head was fuzzy. So damned fuzzy. He became aware of the fact that his stomach felt nauseated the further he slid forward on lazy feet. Perhaps whatever was up ahead had water somewhere inside. Or maybe there were people.

No. Not maybe. Somehow he knew there would be people somewhere. He didn't know how but that seemed stamped as a fact directly on his sluggish brain. He groaned as he stepped from the edge of the forest into a clearing filled with colorful booths and sunlight. The sun seemed to burn into his mind and he closed his eyes, rubbing them. "What the hell is going on?"

He frowned and focused on standing up a little straighter with each step. "Stanford?" Dean asked, looking at her again. "I think I knew a guy who went to Stanford. Weird. I don't think I was the kind of guy to know a guy who went to a really good school. Huh." He shrugged and tried to pick up the pace. He could see a building ahead and he was pretty sure it was the museum she'd spoken about. She didn't seem the type to go too far from a safehold. Which was good because that meant she would be easier to protect once he got his bearings back completely.

He chuckled when she called him Hulk. She was loosening up a little again which made things a lot serious. He didn't do serious for too long if he could help it; he knew that at least. The other stuff was coming back in quick snatches at the edges of darkness inside his mind. He hated being this out of it. It felt wrong and he hoped it would all come back soon. But what the fuck did the word Expired mean on his arm and why would someone tattoo it on his arm. It itched like hell too but unless he wanted to fall on top of Shannon, he couldn't scratch it.

He was however gaining his strength back faster than his memory. He could feel his legs more solidly underneath him but he decided it would be better in the long run if he let her continue to help him. Super Girl was touchy and he did not want the instant replay of earlier. "You really should laugh more often, Shannon. You're almost attractive when you don't look pissed off," he said with a distracted smile.
