[Ahh the daily commute. Same thing, every day, aside, of course, from getting a chance to glimpse some of the stranger faces walking in the city: half-dragons, gnomes and gnolls, elves and halflings... Some of which would be strange even to denizens of fairy tale land.

But today's commute is about to get a little bit more interesting. There's the sound of a great deal of angry honking several blocks away, which grows and swells, apparently coming from a multitude of sources. As it gets closer, other instruments join the symphony: squealing tires, shouting, screaming, and the definite sound of collisions - multiple collisions.

The driver in the lane in front of him is so busy looking in his rear view mirror that he doesn't even notice the light turn green. ]

From what I hear, I technically am one? Wasn't born here, just showed up about six months ago with no clue how or why. As far as I can tell, anyone who comes through the Veil doesn't exactly have a choice, so I can't hold it against them for being here.

...Unless I really hated myself, I guess.

No kidding. [ he looks around as he sheathes his sword, watching the steaming vehicle yonder ] You, uh, like what you're doin' these days, or looking for a change of pace?

[Abandon his thrilling warehouse life??? How could he possibly?! David would never dream of-]

I'm listening.

This is probably gonna sound all kinds of weird, but we're members of a Knighthood. A modern Knighthood. Our whole deal is protecting Shadowkind and stopping the bad ones.

[uncease]

I think my definition of weird was greatly skewed when I was told that I didn't come from this world.

...So, are you hiring?

[nepotism]

[ a wide grin and a slap on the shoulder ] You could definitely say that. C'mon, man. Let's talk.

[And then Fred filled him in on Knightly things and they became best bros forever?

Also known as, is there anything else major planned to happen here or can we call this one a day? Not trying to rush, just not sure where else we were going here and trying to get my stuff under control.]
