Dimentio floated himself silently as he made his way through the town of Flopside. Many people who saw him coming through the streets either knew who he was or thought he was some sort of demon or ghost on account of his glowing yellow eye. Regardless, anyone who caught sight of him as he went ran away screaming and locked their doors and windows tight.
The jester sighed but reluctantly kept floating along, unsure where exactly he was going. He thought of maybe going back to Castle Bleck, but the place was still in shambles and didn't have much food - he had a better chance of no one finding him at Dimension D. At this point, he was uncertain whether or not Blumiere would tell others about him, but he was willing to bet that Mario was already telling authorities about a psychotic jester running rampant.
"Could it POSSIBLY get any worse..." Dimentio sighed as yet another person ran away from him screaming.
Just then, thunder resonated and shook the ground and a flash of lightning could be seen in the distance. The clouds all seemed to open up and rain poured down on Flopside below. Dimentio sighed heavily as his jester cap sagged, rain dripping down the tips. He continued to float down the mud-ridden street and took off his hat, wringing it out as he went along.
Thunder clapped again and Dimentio paused wringing out his cap, hearing the sound of footsteps trudging through the mud. Dimentio turned to see Mr.L pulling his boot from the mud, struggling to get through the already thick muck. Dimentio sighed and crossed his arms, still floating himself above the mud so he didn't get dirty.
"What do you want, Mr.L?" Dimentio asked, "I already did what you asked and brought you to safety, what more do you want from me?"
Mr.L stopped in front of Dimentio and was about to ask a question but he paused, seeing his hat off for the first time.
"Your hair is black?" Mr.L pointed out.
Dimentio looked down at the hat in his hands and sighed, placing the soaking wet jester cap back on his head with a 'shlop'.
"Is that really all you came out here for?" Dimentio questioned, "To point me out when I don't have my hat on?"
"No." Mr.L scoffed, "That would be stupid."
"Yet that is what you did." Dimentio pointed out.
Mr.L sighed in defeat and crossed his arms, looking down at the ground.
"Look, I just want to know what you plan on doing now..." Mr.L replied, "After everything."
Dimentio hummed in response, sitting back in the air.
"Perhaps go back to Castle Bleck and try not to starve, maybe get a new identity and live in another dimension, the possibilities are many." Dimentio stated, "But regardless, no one would like it if I stayed."
"Since when have you cared about what others think?" Mr.L questioned.
"Since they all ganged up to kill me." Dimentio simply replied, "Now, if you're done with this pointlessness, I shall be off."
Dimentio turned himself around and started to levitate himself off. Mr.L grunted in frustration and tried to follow him only for the mud to keep him still.
"Dang it, Dimentio! Why did you do it?! Why did you kill me?!" Mr.L exclaimed.
Dimentio paused at Mr.L's outburst that left the man in green breathing heavily. The jester slowly turned around to face him again, his masked expression showing what looked like shame.
"Could we just not refer back to that?" Dimentio asked.
Mr.L arched an eyebrow in response.
"Why not?" Mr.L replied, "You did it, so tell me WHY, alright? You can go off and do whatever you want after, but I just want to know..."
