Things have been keeping a certain small town sheriff busy at home, and the bar hasn't seen much of him lately.

The powers that be, whatever/whomever they are, have decided to rectify this.

And so, when the front door opens, Bill Pardy walks in.

Sort of.

Minus a few feet and about 28 years.

He's halfway dressed for a football game; tugging on his jersey while trying to hang onto his helmet, and hopping every other step to avoid an untied shoelace.

"Momma, I can't find my mouth-guard or my belt!"

Ruffled hair is followed by the rest of his head as he finally gets the jersey on, then stops in his tracks.

Hand tightening on the face-guard of his helmet, he looks around, bewildered.

"Mom..."


[ooc: Have a lil!Bill! Not sure how long he'll be around, but this post is open until it scrolls :D ]

William looks up from his book when Bill comes in and laughs,

"What are you supposed to be?"

[wheelsy_sheriff]

Bill turns towards the unfamiliar voice, then lifts the helmet so he can grasp it in both hands. Looking down at himself, he tries to stand a little straighter.

"I'm th' quarterback."

He takes a small step forward, head tilted.

"Who're you?"

[not_his_pa]

"William Evans. What's a quarterback?"

Since it looks like it must be something dangerous with all he's wearing.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

"It's uh-- y'don't know what a quarterback is?"

Bill figured everybody knew about football.

Of course, that's not really what's important here, and after a moment or two Bill realizes this.

"Hey, wait a sec, who're you? An' where'd my momma's kitchen go?"

[not_his_pa]

"Its still there just you ain't. Come and sit down and I'll explain. The biscuits here are really good,"

William's got a plate of them with his cocoa and book of stories.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

"But I was just-- "

Bill can't explain it, but it seems like the big kid can, so Bill walks over.

Setting his helmet on an empty chair (because his mom doesn't like it when he puts it on the table), Bill climbs up into another seat and looks at William.

"I um, I'm Bill."

[not_his_pa]

"I know, it ain't natural. This place is called Milliways and time stops when you're here. So you Ma won't worry,"

The biscuits are pushed over and his book put away, its some Poe short stories.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

"It does?"

Bill eyes the biscuits, his attention drifting from them to William, and it's clear Bill wants one. He hesitates, caught between shyness, good manners, and his tummy.

William is offering, though, and there's plenty on the plate, so Bill finally takes one.

"Thank you."

Taking a bite, he chews a bit, then shifts it around so that he's not talking with his mouth all the way full.

"How does it stop?"

[not_his_pa]

"Ain't sure, it just does. I've been told its magic. There's honey too and butter if you want it,"

Sometimes you just end up talking and eating, William and Mark try not to do it too much when their Ma's around but on the trail, it happens.

Jamie walks in fresh from a run around his campus at NYU and he then narrows his eyebrows as he looks at this kid.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

Bill's still standing around, lost and confused, when he notices the man looking down at him.

Taking a step back, Bill clears his throat.

"Excuse me, sir."

[mickandbono.livejournal.com]

Jamie looks down at him. "Hey there little Dude."

[wheelsy_sheriff]

Bill's more than a little uncertain, but the 'little dude' makes him smile some.

"Hi."

[mickandbono.livejournal.com]

"How you doing?"

this kid looks like him.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

"I-- "

Shuffling his feet, Bill glanced around, then looked back up at the man.

"I think m'lost."

[mickandbono.livejournal.com]

"What's wrong? Do you not normally come in to bars?"

[wheelsy_sheriff]

Jameson receives an odd look.

"No."

The look turns into quiet horror and Bill looks around again.

"Is'at what this is?"

[wannab_hokage]

Naruto noticed the other younger boy.

"Hiya," he said.

He himself is wearing a bright orange and blue running suite with his blue ninja sandals, and his leaf headband.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

Bill turns and looks at the other boy.

"Hi..."

[wannab_hokage]

"Is your mom here?" he asked.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

Bill glances around, worried.

"I thought she was in the kitchen, but... this ain't our kitchen."

[wannab_hokage]

...

"You're new here aren't you?" asked Naruto.

[wheelsy_sheriff]

"I dunno where here is," he admits nervously.

[wannab_hokage]

"Oh yeah," said Naruto, "This is Milliways!"

[wheelsy_sheriff]

"What's Milliways?"

And why's it in the kitchen is his other question, given by the way he's still looking around.
