*wide-eyed and serious* You founded it? Wow, you look very good for your age.

((Oh, it's a good thing Xandros doesn't know the rules of time travel. More fun for me!))
Alexander nodded quietly, then glanced around.
"This is a very strange place. What is it called?"
"I know I'm in Gaul, but little more."

"You founded Alexandria?" Ichabod snorted at the handsome but irritating man. "Oh, please."

Alexander raised an eyebrow.
"You honestly don't know who I am?"
He laughed, softly.
"It has been long, and longer still since I have met one who did not know me."
With a deep bow, he smiled.
"My name is Alexandros III Phillioupe Makadone."
"Men call me Mega Alexandros" he added, smiling.

Ichabod looked highly sketpical. "I'm no fool - I know who Alexander the Great is. But are you really asking us to believe you're him?"

*completely unaware of how ludicrous all of this should sound*
It's nice to meet you! I'm Bonnie-Marie de Chagny!
*extends a hand, gesturing to Ichabod with the other*
And this is Ichabod Crane!

Alexander fixed his steel gaze on the dark-haired man.
"I am what I was born to be. I was prince, then, king, then conquerer. But first, I am Macedonian. I AM Alexandros. Believe me or not, it matters little. I am looking for Philo-alexandros."
He stared at Ichabod.

He softened slightly and gently took Bonnie-Marie's hand.
"It is a pleasure, sister, truly."
((I LOVE Bonnie-Marie. She's so oblivious to everything. Dracula shows up? Nothing. The man who ruled the world? Nothing. A monster from Alien could turn up, and Bonnie-Marie would offer it tea and cookies.))

Ichabod eyed the man's contact with Bonnie-Marie. He'd better not try anything funny - this Opera House already had one playboy, and that was enough.

((*coughs* Sister means he considers her a member of his own family--therefore, she's involatile. Hee.))
Alexander caught the posessive flash in Ichabod's eyes and shook his head slightly at him.
"Perhaps, sir, you could tell me where I am?"he said abruptly.

"The Opéra Garnier," Ichabod shot back, slightly surprised. "Most people who come here are actually... you know, intending to come here."

Alexander looked thoughtful.
"I am here because I must be here," he said calmly.
"I'm looking for philo-alexandros. But he seems to have vanished and yet...he was supposed to be here."

Darren bounced into the foyer and stopped dead at the sight of the gorgeous man on the staircase.
"Hi," he said without preamble, making a beeline to him.

Alexander spun, facing the slightly taller man.
"Who are you?" he demanded.

"I'm Darren," he replied, nonplussed by the man's aggressive tone.
