Tim is dressed for it, kind of. The whole suit and trenchcoat thingy. He's actually been looking around for quite some time here, trying to figure it out.
Which is why there is a fairly normal looking person walking amongst the pumpkins, like a tourist on vacation. He is even whistling happily.
Jack doesn't notice Tim at first and he jumps nimbly up on the headstone of Mortimer Hadley, Born: 1876, Died: 1954, He was a Great Man, Great Husband, Great Father, and a Helluva Lousy Dresser.
Jack sips, turns and steps lightly onto the headstone of Madge Brown. It is at this point that he notices Tim. Slightly off-looking, noticably like a human.
"Well, hello there!" Jack waves a long boney arm up in the air and jumps lightly to the ground, slowly twisting through the pumpkin vines.
Jack comes upon the young man, smiling. He waves his free hand, chuckling. "No please, no need to bow. That sort of thing makes me uncomfortable."
He raises the brew to his jaw.
"World walking? So, you are a traveler then? Not a new resident? I am Jack Skellington, King- as you have undoubtedly already guessed- of Halloween Town. If I may ask your name?" Jack sits upon the headstone across from Mike's, a young girl of only five, called Gia. He waves his hand for Tim to sit, if Tim so wishes.
