Azmuth preferred to deal with data that could be verified.

"For everyone else that seems to be the case," Azmuth admitted. "There aren't many who choose to believe it's simply a dream. Those who do typically don't for long, most likely as a sense of mental self-preservation: Nothing they do seems to wake them up, so it's better to accept this as reality than entertain the possibility that their real selves are trapped in, say, a coma that they'll never wake from."

"I'm not most people."

It's stated as simple fact. He spent four point five billion years, dying over 230 billion times. He's at the same time, mentally stronger and weaker than anyone he knows.

"So I've noticed," he stated flatly. "Then again, neither am I as you've likely figured out as well."

He paced along the branch for a moment.

"I never denied this was real because I'd already seen the fundamental forces in play in the multiverse and seeing them here to a stronger extent proved that it was real since I can't see them in dreams. Because of that and other factors I've come to see the multiverse as a series of nested dimensions, each aware of at least the possibility of lower ones but unaware that they themselves were not the outer shell. The only thing I really question about this place is whether or not it truly is the highest level of reality or if there's some level beyond it, something which I can neither prove nor disprove.

"However if you don't have that frame of reference, my own experiences are likely useless to you."

[not_the_question]

"I have that frame of reference."

He states that rather testily. Then he offers a short pause.

"Usually."

He huffs in annoyance, not at Azmuth.

"I usually can feel, see, and taste time. But here, I don't have any of that. It's like being blinded. You say you never had your abilities in dreams, but you have them here and that's proof for you. I don't recall a time I didn't have my abilities. Being in a universe of anti-time, where there was no time at all, sure. But even there, I knew there wasn't time. That wasn't like this. This... This is wrong."

And he doesn't know how to make it plainer than that. Because this is new and different and frustrating and scary, but he's not really the type to express his emotions, so it comes out as annoyance.

Azmuth paused, considering. "Is it possible that it's not that you've been blinded but that there's so much that you can't narrow your focus?"

It was a theory he was working on. Unfortunately, he was a being trying to understand how a species that could literally taste time when he himself lacked the senses.

[not_the_question]

The Doctor blows a raspberry.

"Focus. Let me tell you about focus. I spent four and a half billion years breaking out of a place I was trapped in. Focus is not a problem I have."
