(no subject)

[Luke sits in the lounge, he is wounding what is wrong with him and why he what's to jump in to bed with every man that walks past.]

[He is hateing this feeling due to having a boyfriend back at home.]

[if you talk to him you might reserve a free snog.]

Hey, Luke.

[This Clive does Patience a little less... drugged than his double. He's just particularly calm, although he's usually more calm than the other Clives so he doesn't really seem any different to usual. Having a virtue doesn't stop him from his usual blowing-smoke-into-people's-faces either, apparently. He sits down next to Luke.]

You new? I haven't seen you around.

This place what?

[He tilts his head slightly, taking a slow drag of his cigarette.]

[Well, that was... unexpected.]

...I think I'm a little too old for you.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
You are young, though, and I'm in my thirties.

[He smiles faintly, patient the whole time.]

This place messing with you?

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Most places can't. This place isn't most places.

You'll see.

No, I'm not exactly that Layton's biggest fan either. I understand that one of my doubles follows him around like some kind of pet, though.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm. I don't know him all that well.

[Even if Monocle did try to... get acquainted, as it were.]

Bad luck, I guess. Being from the same time as him.

This? Ah... ten years ago. Or thereabouts.

[Not 'thereabouts' at all - Clive knows exactly when he picked up the habit. He shrugs, though, blowing smoke at Luke again.]

Why do you ask?

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[Clive chuckles.]

So. I know what this place is doing to me, and... I think it's a pretty safe bet what it's doing to you.

[Clive hums a little and lounges back on the sofa. Possibly not the best move, considering.]

Providing you stay here, you'll get used to this kind of thing.

[Oh god hello lapful of Luke. Clive very nearly inhales his cigarette.]

...no offense, but you really are younger than I tend to go for.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 08:33 pm (UTC)(link)
...think I'd prefer to have it though, just for the record.

[Patience cannot win out over a ten-year nicotine habit, no matter what the DR thinks.]

Look, I... Why don't you just head back on over to the other side of the sofa, Luke?

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 08:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Then do it.

You're heading into... bad territory. Really.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Clive sits himself up on the arm of the sofa, watching Luke warily.]

I'd say the same of Hershel, but it'd be kind of redundant considering.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
They're very different to one another.

...very different.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmm. Hershel... basically, I met him in this place before he ever even became a professor. And then... we were able to go back to his world.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's the one. It suited him, didn't it?

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[Clive snorts, not moving to take it - he doesn't quite want to move closer to Luke again.]

I've seen, yes. He once asked me whether he should grow it out again.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
You went up North? Oh, I'm sure that pleased him.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-16 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
You were running from him?

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-17 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
...understandable, then.

[He takes another drag of his cigarette, though he's courteous enough this time to blow the smoke out away from Luke.]

If Hershel were ever like... that Layton...

...I don't know. For all I know, he could have been destined for that, if I hadn't turned up.

[identity profile] timedlegality.livejournal.com 2012-06-18 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I can't see myself ever letting that happen.
