Tim is once more settled into his Answer Man role. It's one of those things he does well.

Well, only one of the things. Thats why, in addition to his sign,("WELCOME TO MILLIWAYS. DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS? LET ME HELP YOU OUT.")) he also has rather large tome in his hands. The title is unreadable, the binding is leathery, and the paper is rather old.

Just another day of light reading.

95 approaches with a bow, but stands at a respectful distance. Because, y'know, she doesn't want to interrupt his reading with something so unimportant as social contact.

Tim seems deeply interested in the book. But he does notice her when he reaches for his tea.

"95. Hey!"

[95-tan.livejournal.com]

"Good evening, Hunter-san. I hope I'm not interrupting anything important..."

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

"Nothing really 95-chan."

He taps the book.

"Just... catching up on my studies."

[95-tan.livejournal.com]

"Ah. Of the magical sort?"

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

"Kinda?"

Tim shrugs.

"It's about me, in a way."

[95-tan.livejournal.com]

"About you?" Her head tilts, and she moves to get a glance at the text. "Is it a self-help book?"

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

The text is unusual for normal books, but usual for magic books. By which I mean the words seem to move around the page.

"It's about Openers. And Merlins. And various different me's"

[95-tan.livejournal.com]

"I'm afraid I am unfamiliar with these terms."

She peers with interest at the text. It isn't quite readable, but it looks interesting.

"I didn't know that a book could move."

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

"It's some of my titles."

He taps the book again.

"Magic books tend to be like that."

[95-tan.livejournal.com]

"Titles... You're nobility, then?"

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

"Er."

He ponders this for a moment.

"Yes, but not because of those titles. My noble titles are Knight of the Sunlit Lands and Prince of the Twilight Realm."

[95-tan.livejournal.com]

"Ah, such poetic titles!" she exclaims smiling, "But the others are not nobility? They're job functions, then?"

Does he Have Questions? Yes this new comer has alot of questions so he approaches the man.

"Hello."

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

Tim nods his head.

"Hi there friend."

[archimedes19.livejournal.com]

"What is this place?" he asks still unsure if it is a dream or if he died and is in a waystation to the afterlife.

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

Tim taps his sign.

"It's called Milliways. It's a bar."

[archimedes19.livejournal.com]

"How foes this place exist?" he rests his weary legs by taking a seat.

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

He leans back in his chair, fingers steepled.

"Magic mainly."

[archimedes19.livejournal.com]

"Magic." he ponders this. "Is this a place created by the Gods?"

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

"By a being or beings more powerful then those beings that are more powerful then the gods."

Tim grins.

"And before you say no one is, I have personally watched one of them throttle Ares to within an inch of his life."

[archimedes19.livejournal.com]

"Then perhaps such things are not for one as myself to further question." He is dissappointed but he doesn't want to risk angering the gods.

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

a faint shrug,

"No ones ever gotten in trouble for asking questions."

Not here anyways

[archimedes19.livejournal.com]

A small smile crossed his face.

"Since I seem to be stuck here perhaps you could tell me how I might find lodging?"

[timsbooks.livejournal.com]

He gestures at the bar.

"Just ask Bar. She's not actually inaanimate."
