Henry shook his head. "Nonono- That's impossible! There's no way- Macklemore is dead, I saw him die-"
"Well, obviously, I'm not dead. I'm standing right here." Macklemore hissed. It was almost like his tongue had been coated with venom and he was trying to spit it out.
Henry whimpered, obviously confused. If you met your dead idol, I'm sure you'd be confused, too.

"Do you have somewhere other than here that we can chat about this? We're kinda being chased by the police." Macklemore scoffed, casually.
Henry nodded, taking the man's hand and pulling him through an alley. He peeled off his coat and threw it into the trash, hoping that would throw the cops off. He ran to a small diner.

When they were situated at their table, Macklemore scarfed down a cheeseburger. Henry allowed Macklemore to take his burger, too.
"So-" Macklemore began. "I was laying in my apartment, and I got sucked into this weird portal thing, and landed here." He said simply.
Henry cocked his head. "Huh-?"

"I'm just as confused as you." Macklemore says through a mouthful of cheese, which he'd scraped off the patty before he ate the rest.
Henry made a face, but didn't comment. "That must be what that machine was for-"
"Machine?" Macklemore looked up at him.
Henry nodded. "Yeah- The one Macklemore was trying to turn off..." He pulled the key out of his pocket.
Macklemore snatched it away. "Hey-! Put that away! They're probably looking for it!" He hissed, stuffing it in his pocket.
"Give it back." Henry huffs.
"No." Macklemore said, simply.
Henry got up and stood right in front of him, pouting like a first grader. "Give it!"
"No!" Macklemore huffs. "Prove that you can handle it!" he takes it back out of his pocket. He got up and held it up.
Henry makes a grab for it, and catches it, but falls to the ground, with it still in his hand. It makes a crunching noise, under his weight. His eyes widened.
Macklemore growled and rubbed his temple. "...This was my fault. Now we have to go make a new one, and it's gonna be a whole thing." he hissed under his breath.
Henry fidgeted with it. "..."
Macklemore walks out. "Let's go."
Henry felt like he had no choice, but to follow.
