[New York City is all around him, a mixture of loud noise and constant movement. He's standing in the middle of the sidewalk, holding a piece of paper and scanning the crowd.

And there she is.]

Kate! [He starts running after her, pushing people aside as he goes.] Kate, wait!

[He runs faster and faster, following her through the streets, darting into alleys and making sharp turns but he can never quite reach her, no matter how fast he goes.

His lungs are burning, his legs ache but he keeps moving, taking another quick turn and nearly crashing into a brick wall.

A wall. A wall with no other exits in immediate view and too high to climb.]

...Kate?

[He looks around, expression momentarily helpless.]

[He studies her then smiles a little weakly.[ It's okay. It's not your fault. I just spend half my waking hours trying to get her back, I was just hoping that in my dreams I'd get the chance without having to work so hard at it you know?

I know. I very much... know.

[He laughs a little.] At least my dreams are empathetic.

I try! Empathetic dream Buffy is go. Speaking of go, where should we?

[He looks around them and then starts walking towards the mouth of the alley..] Pick a direction, any direction. [If she doesn't pick, he's got a conveniently placed coin in his pocket to flip. Oh the wonders of the dreamscape.]

[She nods, selecting left and heading down the strangely deserted street.]

This is New York, right?

[He looks at the street,, blinking and looking around. There were people here. He was running through a crowd of them and now....]

Where is everyone?
