Yeah, well, not much impresses an intergalactic sentient AI.

"Not even people from other dimensions apparently..." *His ear twitches.* "Well it seems you are a member of the Dojo now so you can come in if you want..."
-
Well, this Earth isn't nuclear waste, so... I'm also from a different reality.
-
"Huh, interesting... What brought you here?"
-
Just a traveler. Collided with a satellite.
-
"No, I meant this dimension..."
-
[i]*looks around*[/i] Just a traveler...? Collided with a satellite...? [i]*rubs helmet*[/i]
-
"Are you okay?"
-
Yeah, but I really don't know how I got to this place... just remember, a... talking crab and a monkey in a lab coat? They were in a van.
-
*He stares at you blankly for about ten seconds...* "Stay away from drugs man... Well, as for me, I was testing a wormhole generator at the laboratory where I used to work when there was a bright flash and I woke up lying on the ground in the woods... That was two years ago... What I still can't wrap my head around is the fact that it took me to a different dimension, not a different point in space... Wormholes are supposed to warp space not tear a whole in it..."

No, really. There was an android, who was a crab... Y'know what, Appalachian? Can you show the footage? [i]Sure.[/i] [b]Appalachian appears in my hand, and transforms into a holoscreen. In the video, Tundra is standing outside a dark red Van, which has it's door open. He goes inside, and the van is much larger on the inside. He meets the humanoid crab, who motions to the shelf. As he taps it, an AI augmentation port is available. He sells it to him, and he buys at the counter, his coins falling through.[/b] See? These guys.
-
"Huh... That's strange..."
-
[i]*closes palm*[/i] See what I mean?
-
"Yeah... Well I guess it's a mystery how you got to this dimension then... Why did you go there?"
-
It was a shop. Selling things. Hey, they gave Appalachian sentience!
-
"I suppose that's good... I gave a talking toaster a body... I probably should have spoken with him more before I gave him the body because whoever programmed him programmed him to be a jerk."
-
Sucks. Appalachian can be... passionate. But she's an AI, she just wants information.
-
"Ah, okay... I just realized we have been standing out here for a while... Do you want a tour of the Dojo?"
-
Sure.
-
"Okay, follow me." *He turns around and walks back through the gate of the Dojo. He stops about ten feet in and points to something that's obscured by the wall surrounding the Dojo.* "This is my house. Nice right?"
-

-
"No not that one... This one." *You realize he isn't pointing at the mansion that will only be there for this post, but he is instead pointing at a 3X5 foot cardboard box sitting in front of it.*
-
[i]See? I told you it was crap.[/i] Still nice.
-
"Yeah... Despite being a cardboard box it is a lot bigger on the inside and is fully furnished too... Anyways... There is the main training building." *He points to a very large building sitting in the middle of the very large area inside the Dojo walls.* [spoiler]I'm not sure if there is a specific layout or not so I'm sort of making it up as I go on... Some of these buildings, like Sketch's box, are an actual part of the Dojo.[/spoiler]
-
Bigger on the inside? Like the Van I went to?
-
"I guess so... Except my house is a mansion inside and I made all the furniture out of cardboard... For some reason there's a room in the cardboard box that has an enormous pile of cardboard boxes in it..."
