[Edward is just going to bolt right back home. This is entirely too much and, fuck it, he'll just get soaked. He just needs to get home and... sleep. That's fine. He can just... forget this happened.
Sometimes you have a bad day and lose it a little, right?
He stops once he's close by his apartment, just... catching his breath. Too much exercise. And in the pouring rain, too...]
Well. If I'd known you were going to be this touchy about it, I would have waited. [he says, just...popping out of the ground] You're going to be one of those that takes all day to think about it, aren't you?
[Right. Okay. Oswald lets out an exasperated sigh--and up you go to your apartment, Edward. Except when you get there...Oswald will already be inside. Waiting]
I'm still going to be here when you wake up, unless you make a wish. I cannot leave until you do! [he huffs, throwing his hands up, before folding his arms]
But fine. I suppose, for you, I'll be patient. You're welcome~
I didn't say thank you. And I'm not going to, either. Go... scatter into the wind or lie on a beach like sand is supposed to, already.
[Speaking of, actually. He pauses as he's walking further into his apartment, glancing down. That's... definitely sand trailing behind him. Not from that... thing, but from himself.]
As I've said multiple times now--[twice, Oswald. You've said it twice]--I cannot leave until you tell me your wish. [he waves a hand at the sand] That's just the result.
[He will absolutely not do that, you rude sand sculpture!
But, he can go ahead and explore. The apartment's pretty small. Edward can't really afford much better than this. There's a pretty impressive computer set up at a desk and a laptop by the couch, though, which is where most of his money goes.
Not to mention lots of puzzles strewn around. Sudoku books, nonograms, crosswords... lots of them.]

move in a bit closer]
An Imagin~ And I can't help it if the truth sounds ominous to you. [he pouts, folding his arms]
C'mon~ You've had a terrible day, right? I bet I could make it better.

What... the hell. [He just. Stares. What does he do with this?] You're... one persistent hallucination.

Wait. No. I should not be indulging this. [He stands up a little straighter and just. lets out a deep breath.] I'm going home. Go away, now.
[Yep, yep, heading to his apartment now.]
no subject
I can't go away. Not until you make your wish.
no subject
I-I'm not interested, alright, so just go away!

[Try that line on someone else, sir.]
no subject
Maybe you just didn't hear it. But I did! Now tell me your wish already.
no subject
[He just, scampers back to his feet.]
Okay, I just... need to sleep or something. Forget all about this day and this... persistent hallucination. It's fine.

...Is this contagious or something?

[He keeps walking again. Stops.]
...If I take a shower, you're not going to follow me there, too, are you?

[he's just gonna keep going then and take that shower and maybe this weird. thing. will be gone when he's done.]

casually float after him]
Try to think of your wish in the shower, hm? [meanwhile he'll
work on exploring the apartment. Maybe he can find something here that can give him a clue to what this guy would like???]

....he hopes it's the former and not the latter.
They're both definitely going to still be trailing sand, though, which is probably not awesome for Edward's shower]
