The Door morphs into a pair of sliding doors, which whoosh open and admit a lanky young man with curly hair and a dark suit and also an armload of books. And a peeved expression which gives way to a scowl and an increasing amount of shouting ( Read more... )

"Oh, hello Sk--" Arthur stops and looks the new-comer up and down. "You're not Skip. You sort of look like him though. Are you his brother?"

"Who's Skip?" Clone Gareth stands up. "I don't have any brothers that I'm aware of, but we could still be related."

"Skip's the pilot," Arthur says. "But I suppose he's somewhere else today. His real name is Martin Crieff. What's yours?"

"Gareth Tennenbaum. The second. Why do people call him Skip?"

Due to not being particularly sure where the thread will go, the narration is choosing not to reference the above thread with Martin!

"Well, It's because he's the captain. And..." Arthur's face clouds over a little. "And I guess only I call him Skip. But it is because he's the captain, and that's what you call the Captain."

Clone Gareth shakes the hand! He also likes meeting new people. "Glad to meet you as well, Mister Shappey."

"...Or would you rather be called Arthur?" The world of tomorrow is a great deal less formal than his home time.

"Oh, Arthur's fine." If he looks surprised, it's because the last person to call him Mister Shappey was about to tell him that he had only got two A-levels.

"Do-- Do you mind if I call you Gareth?"

"That's fine, everyone else does." Except Jezebelle, who insists on calling him Gary because she has some kind of addiction to nicknames.

"Brilliant!" Arthur beams. Then something else catches his eye. "Er, what are your books about?"
