An Arthurian Knight in a Connecticut Yankee's Apartment

[Carnivals!  Roller coasters!  Cotton candy!  Exposure to too many foreign sights was overwhelming his brain; though Lawfer assumed it had something to do with the memory loss at first, careful observation of the others' reactions to the spectacles convinced him otherwise.  'Theme park' wasn't even in his vocabulary; asking someone to define it for him had resulted in nothing more than a brief spurt of laughter.

Either he had lost far more memory than the others, or he was simply from a vastly different place.  Either way, though he could grudgingly admit the park was enjoyable at some points, it was far too much to handle in a single day.  He looked forward to the comfort of a bed and a cold bath.]

[A: The first challenge: the elevator.  Anyone walking into the lobby will find a man pulling at two stubborn doors that refuse to budge, despite being assured that they would lead straight to his room on the 3rd floor.  He could only imagine that the stairs were behind them.  If only they would open.  Banging, kicking, and trying to force them apart with all his might leads only to strained shoulder muscles.]


I have clearly been directed to the wrong location.  Where are the rooms I have been assigned?

[B: The second challenge.  At some point, a wild yell will be heard from Lawfer's room, after which he barrels out the door as quickly as possible.]

Demons!  Demons!  Inside a box!  Do you hear their voices?!  The room is accursed!  Quickly, call for an exorcist, a priest; they may take material form at any moment!

[Astute listeners will notice that the television is on.]

[C: The third challenge.  After the business with the demon-possessed television is cleared up, Lawfer will be knocking at your door, largely devoid of clothes, and well... Let's say medieval knights don't usually shower that often.]

My apologies for the intrusion, but I cannot locate the communal bathing area.  Where is the well from which the water is drawn?

Gawd sorry for all the html fail

[Jr. gives him an annoyed look and tries to get away again.]

I told you, it's just the TV. No demons at all.

Not really. It's just a form of entertainment.

...No. You don't get it. There are no demons involved, at all.

They aren't actually in there, in there. It's a recording. It isn't real.

You are, aren't you.

Look, I'll prove it to you.

[Jr. finally manages to get away from Lawfer long enough to find the TV remote and change the channel a few times.]

[Jr. is nothing if not quick and nimble, so he easily dances away from Lawfer's grasp and begins changing channels.]

See?

For entertainment. It's like... watching a play. In the comfort of your room. You see?

It would be hilarious if Lawfer got addicted to watching crappy TV sitcoms

[Jr. sighs, clearly defeated. At least this guy isn't freaking out about demons anymore.]

Suit yourself, buddy.

Is it bad that I really, really want this to happen now?

[identity profile] bulletserenade.livejournal.com 2011-10-01 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, sure, no problem.

[Jr. turns the TV off, showing Lawfer the power button on the remote as he does so.]

So, what's your name? I'm Jr.

Are you serious. I can't WAIT for this. XD

Lawfer, huh? With a name like that, and the way you act and talk, you've got to be a knight of some sort. But I guess you wouldn't know right now, would you.

It's no big deal.

I will wait for it with excitement!

Huh, hadn't thought of it that way. We must come from very different places!
