Introductory Temporal Transportology

[A man is stuck in the streets of London. He has an amazing I-don't-care-about-my-hair-because-that's-how-cool-I-am hairstyle, $300 dollar Italian jeans, and I dare you to ask the thread count on that shirt, the first few buttons of which have been carelessly left unbuttoned. That's right. The hipsters have arrived. Also, he is holding a blackberry.]

[Clothing aside, he is not acting all that hip. He speaks with very broad hand gestures and a moderately manic expression.]


What the hell is this? When did we go Sherlock Holmes? Abed, are you doing a 'themed episode' [he doesn't need physical air quotes: he can do it with his voice] again? Because if you are, I need to know how the hell you pulled this off so it never happens again! [He stares at his Blackberry in incredulity, and here comes the last straw.] And why isn't my phone getting any signal?

[A choked scream of frustration, and he kicks a nearby crate.] This doesn't make any sense!

[Someone stop him before he finds an axe.]

[A little amused.] Well, that shouldn't be entirely impossible for someone good with words. I think demonstrating your abilities to the right people would help.

[If anything, Lion brightens. How nice to be wrong about someone.] Yes, that's a wonderful idea. If you need help finding someone to work under, please tell me. I had to learn a few laws for business but I mostly stay out of it, personally.

[Oh Jeff, scoring more points. It's obvious from her expression that isn't asked much, if ever.] Oh! Yes, it's fine. Ah, thank you, though. I try to remember not to address people the same way when speaking English.

[Jeff really is good at this. Lion laughs softly, not exactly embarrassed but a little flattered.] Oh, well, thank you. We start learning it rather early and my grandfather encouraged me to practice. But I doubt I could sound better than a native speaker. There are a lot of little things I miss.

[Curious, head tilting a little.] I'd like that. Do you know any Japanese? Well, it probably wouldn't be useful for you to learn, though.

[She laughs.] I think I'll let you focus on your legal studies rather than languages. I imagine that will be more than enough to keep you busy.

The little I looked into was sometimes...strange but manageable enough for my scope. Well, this is before businesses had quite so many liabilities attached to them. I only needed to know what not to do, really.

[Laughing.] I can't imagine what I could do so wrong to set a precedent.
