So, yeah, like, this place has all sorts of things, more'n I thought there'd be of what I was looking for, but there ain't any people I seen yet. Anybody around out there? Me, I'll be in the cafe, I guess. I'm brilliant with burgers.

Yeah. I mean--I'm not amazing or anything, but I do all right.

[Blank stare.] Fortified?

sebastard: (...huh?)
From: [personal profile] sebastard
We'll see--I'll play you a song or two, you can decide for yourself.

[And so he smiles at Tom. And then frowns a bit, because fortification? Really?]

What kind of an attack?

All kinds of songs. [Sebastian shrugs.] What kind of music d'you like?

Well, uh. I mean, the doors have locks. What kind of fortifications do you want?

Oh. Then it'll be a surprise, what you can play on a piano.

I guess not. [Pause. What do you say after that odd little interlude?] So where're you from, Tom?

That's something! I can't whistle at all.

Oh--your job at the chip shop?

sebastard: (silly wigs)
From: [personal profile] sebastard
I'm rubbish at it, can't do it at all.

Oh, I'm studying acting. [And he's just a little bit of a ponce about it sometimes. It's so exciting and magical.] And I work in a boutique. When little old ladies need dresses, they come in to see Se--Viola.

[Sebastian claps enthusiastically at this, grinning at Tom.] I'd try, but I'd just get bits of chip all over the counter.

Oh--I'm from Dartmouth. I live in London right now, though, for uni and all.

Yeah, the parks're nice. And the shops--and the plays, and the clubs. London's brilliant.

[Pause.] Suppose it's a bit quieter, where you live.

sebastard: (mortified)
From: [personal profile] sebastard
Oh--I'm sorry. [Sebastian fiddles with a chip.] A proper house has got to be nice after that, wherever it is.

Date: 2012-05-24 03:00 am (UTC)
sebastard: (...huh?)
From: [personal profile] sebastard
[Sebastian shrugs.] I don't know about you, but I wouldn't fancy living in a van. I don't know how I'd fit my wardrobe in, for starters.
