[Absolutely naked. Who takes a shower any other way?]

Nah 'cause you know all the words you're readin'. I'm just sittin' and listenin'. Even dogs do that.

[ For Tessa's sanity and virtue, she'll not think about that. At all. Thank you very much. ]

You are hardly comparable to a dog. [ So offended on his behalf. ]

[Now he's laughing and getting out of the shower.]

I don't know. This guy that lives next to us used to have this really smart dog. [He's joking. Tim is very self aware when it comes to his intelligence. He's flattered by Tessa's offense though.]

[ Tessa has her nose buried very deep in her book, even though she isn't reading. The book is a kind of shield, though. Not that there's anything she needs protection from right now-- not really. But still. ]

You are not at all comparable to a dog, Tim. [ Except if one were to list a dog's positive qualities. She can imagine Tim would be very loyal. ]

[He wraps a towel around his waist, turns the video back to sort of be facing him as he's drying his hair, putting on deodorant and things like that. He ponders shaving for a moment and decides scruffy will do for the day then picks the device up and heads toward his room to get dressed.]

That might be onea the nicest things anybody's ever said to me.

Then you have not been surrounded by very nice people. [ The offense and outrage on his behalf keep the utter mortification - and fascination - at seeing him with only a towel around his waist at bay. ]

Don't know. Most of 'em were all right. [He puts the device on the dresser and for the most part she's not going to see anything. Just occasional flashes of skin while he throws on a pair of jeans and a tee shirt.

[ She's decidedly not looking. ] I can hardly judge, considering that I do not know them.

Yeah and there's some people I wouldn't mind showin' up here but there's ones I'd like to stay home too. [Smash for one. He grabs up the device and heads outside the room toward the lobby.]

Yes, it is much the same for me. There is two people from my world here, and one of them from my time. I would not mind if Jem or Charlotte came here. [ And she's scared and worried that Mortmain will show up here one day. The main reason why she likes the City so much is that he isn't here. ]

I bet most people here are like that. All right, I'm ready to go, where you at?

Most likely, indeed. Though I do not think anyone's preferences are taken into account when people arrive here.

[ Will certainly did not want her here and yet, here she is. Tessa puts the book away and walks into the lobby as well. ]

I'm ready as well.

[He grins when she walks into the room.]

You got some money with you? You're gonna need 'em for shoes.

Yes, of course. [ She holds up a small bag that she's carrying in one hand for him to see. ]

We'll look 'round find somethin' that'll work for you and not cost too much.

[he holds the door open for her.]

I've not spent very much money since I have arrived here. [ Meaning she could probably afford good quality. She isn't sure whether this is what she wants to spend a lot of her money on, but she can afford it. ]

Only on dresses and once with a curse I bought other clothes.

Yeah? What sorta clothes?

[ Tessa looks away with a hint of a blush. They're indecent, okay. ]

Jeans. And a skirt. And a leather jacket.

[He sees that bit of a blush.]

Yeah? Sounds like they'd look good on you.

Hardly. [ Torn between being pleased that he'd think so and mortified that she's not only bought but also worn them once. ]

Hey now, I'll do the judgin'.

I should think not. [ Because he will not see her in those clothes anytime soon. Particularly not that skirt. She's not touching that skirt again. ]

Well then you ain't allowed to beat up on yourself 'less you're gonna get other opinions. [He would almost absolutely love the skirt.]

They are not very suitable. [ He would. ]

The clothes? [He shrugs] Sorta one of those right clothes for the right job sorta things, ain't it?
