[Garrett has not figured out how to use the datapad yet; the thing has accidentally turn on as he wobbles it around in the air using the Force. Floating in midair as it is, you get a shaky shot of our prince sitting on the edge of his bed, elbows on his knees and hands fisting in his hair]
It's just a bloody door.
It's not. You know it's not.

Is it just me, or did your lips not move when you said that?

So who is she and why did she tell you to stay?

I have to say, I've never seen a lady with hair of such a lovely shade. Might I have your name?

[ Tonks smiles. She can appreciate that he appreciates the color lavender. It's a good color. ]
I'm Tonks. Who're you?

A pleasure to meet you, milady. [she's gets a bow, and a smirk that shows he's aware it's a ridiculous thing to do] I'm new. Well - people tend to call me Garrett, actually, when they're trying to be polite. I occasionally go by such titles as 'jackass', 'selfish prick' and on one memorable occasion, 'horselover'. The last of which is not actually true, I assure you.

You know what I hate? Space magic. See, your stay is almost thematic. She huh, wonder why he wouldn't want to leave, four walls and a door, dark, rather skin myself alive then sta- stop. it. As for working it usually works against you.
... This is exhausting.

[He falls silent - well, his mouth, at least] They heard that? They know, that's not - no one should--
To say the least. I vote we get drunk. That means leaving. Very drunk.

Me too. Yes, me too. That describes a lot of things I'd say.
[... throat clearing] I like how you think! The drinking part. It's not always easy though, is it? Half the damned tower never wanted to leave, were too scared of it, never understood it then. Only took a year to get that particular lesson. Tell you what, you accompany me and drinks are on my tab. That I somehow can pay- don't ask. You can do it- damnit stop it, stop it... me. Thoughts. Think about the open sky, there's nothing like it.

Drinking! Yes, drinking should absolutely happen, although - what, you mean to say I can't expect the alcohol to come to me any more? What's the point in being a prince if the grog doesn't just magically appear in front of me? The sky is out the window, it's fine to look at it's more than there was, it's enough--
I don't suppose you're in favour of pretending like none of this is happening, are you?

Someone woman got you mighty whipped, huh. Not that I can't sympathize...
[Dryyy chuckle.]
Maybe you should take your own advice, hm?

--You know a year ago I probably would have agreed with you, but I've been finding lately that my own advice tends to end up with me being chased by madmen or angry women or dragons. Or all three, if it's a particularly bad day. It's usually a particularly bad day.

Huh. I'm impressed.
[Big grin.]
Sounds like an interesting life, dude. Pretty women?
[He means the angry ones chasing him.]

To be honest, it's long since reached a point where I could do with a little boredom. As for the women, it turns out I'm an equal opportunity lady aggravator, although some of them have been beauties. Like the ones I ended up travelling with. And who la la la not thinking not thinkiiiiiiing.
