There, in the back booth... see him?

The man falling asleep over 'The Kraken Wakes' by John Whydham?

That is Random. Come say hello, the book is good, but conversation is better.

Random nods.

"That came across. But he must be happy to be able to do something concrete."

"Yes, so I would assume. It was irresponsible, but I can't say that I'm not jealous."

"Of course you are. Even I am, a little, though I can't say it'd be a good idea for me to head out on a quest right now."

"Even your brother thought being a clown would be a good way to throw your opponents off guard. I might have been interested in testing it." *Smile*

He blinks, eyes taking in the clown make up again.

It's hard for him to remember Andres is wearing it. After years of painting it on himself and others, it doesn't seem like an issue.

"Well... I guess so."

"Ah well, maybe when it's all said and done I'll keep the look." *Snort*

He snickers.

"Maybe just a mask to whip out of your back pocket in times of need."

*Smile* "You know, I had forgotten. That does work quite well."

He grins.

"So long as you have big eyeholes. If you don't, then you're in deep trouble."

"Or sidhe magic." *smile*

He smiles back.

"You'd need to talk to Miss Meredith for that. I don't know a thing about it."

"It's already done. Though you are right, she may be interested in seeing it. To compare our Sidhe to the ones of her world. She and I had a long talk about the magic in our worlds. Quite pleasant really."

"We come from similar political situations. We have spoken at length, as well."

"She seems nice enough." Is all he says. He's distracted again. So easily done.

"What's up now, Andres? You're looking all vague again."

"Not a thing. There's just too much to think about. It's easier to think about nothing."

"Or read Shakespeare, yes. My advice? Do Titus Andronicus. It's a bad play, anyways."

*Chuckle* "Alright, I'll read that one instead. Thanks."

"What's your favourite, so far?"

*Shrug* "I don't know. I'll tell you when I'm finished."

He sighs.

"Of course."

Andres is being all not-talky. Of course.

Andres is being all not talky because there is no topic.

He has only read 3 of the plays so far.

"sorry."

"No problem, I understand."

He casts about wildly for something to say.
