[There’s a teenager!

He’s wet, in something of a ‘I’m going to ignore how much of a drowned rat I appear’ way. One might assume that he fell into the fountain at some point, but equally, the all-encompassing wetness may have something to do with the fact that he was just in England, aka the land of copious amounts of tea-and-rain. His expression, for the record, reflects his irritation at being displaced without warning, frustration from trying to get whatever this might be to work (he's not entirely convinced it is), and curiosity. You know, at the whole ‘suddenly displaced, this isn’t London’ thing. It’s hard not to wonder about something like that.

When he finally speaks, he sounds Remarkably British, although his accent is rather indistinct for the most part – southern, one might assume, well-brought up, although there’s a slight hint of Welsh. No, he doesn’t do anything untoward with sheep. London doesn't have sheep.]


Normally, one only has to ask for my company to be granted with it. [This? This would be the unmistakable tone of `GRUMPINESS`.] I do try to make myself available for all, but it can’t be helped if someone misses out here and there. Kidnapping tends not to be the answer, though. If I said I was impressed, I’d sadly be lying, but if it makes you feel any better, you can pretend I’m of that opinion regardless. Likewise, I think you’ll find you’ve managed to overshoot ‘mysterious’.

[There’s a pause, and for a moment, there’s a flash of wry amusement in his expression, as if this entire scenario is utterly ridiculous to the point of absurdity.]I wonder if I've been changed in the night? Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is 'Who in the world am I?'” I hope you won’t mind if I happen to refuse any bottles labelled ‘drink me’, or any foods labelled ‘eat me’. I’m quite content with who I am and don’t envision any existential crises a la dear Alice.

I won't decline any explanations, though, even if they happen to come from hatters and caterpillars and assorted small mammals with a fondness for tea and an inability to correctly tell the time.

[There’s another pause, and after he glances away from the device and up at the sky, he shoves the device into a pocket – without, for the record, bothering to turn it off, so have fun with the sound of footsteps and the wonderful blackness of pockets until the device times out.]

It's possible to have it be both.

Productivity doesn't rate highly on my list of aims.

You aim is very high then. It's almost impressive.

That's a bit concerning; I must be giving out the wrong impression. To clarify: my aim is very, very low.

Clearly you've never been to New York. That's aiming high.

Clearly. But I'm only concerned with London. I'd hate to return and have people reassess their opinion of me.

You're from Victorian London from the looks of it. Just watch the people here and you can pick up on some more bad habits to bring back.

[Congratulations, Jace. Will actually laughs at that.] I suppose I'll have to find out, although voyeurism seems like extraordinary lengths to go to.

You really have no idea what you're missing.

You don't know what I've been doing.

Share with the class then, Will. It's not nice to keep things to yourself.

[If Will had anything to recline against, he'd be reclining against it right now.

Alas.]


I'm not very nice, unfortunately.

And suddenly I'm not impressed once again. [Sigh.] Then again, it's only the Victorian Era. It probably isn't anything to be impressed about.

I hope you won't mind if I don't go and drown my sorrows over failing to impress you.

After dealing with Magnus Bane dating my brother, things like that are not going to bother me.

[Will tenses somewhat at the name. Blah blah ANGST.] I don't suppose he's here, is he?

You know him too then. And no, the warlock is not here. Thank the Angel for small miracles.

[There's a pause as he -- appears to -- contemplate this.]</>

I'm not of the same persuasion as your brother, if that's what you're asking.

[Unless he has siblings he doesn't know about...]

I actually already gathered that but I just wanted to check.

There are easier ways to ask.

Since when is doing it the easy way fun?
