"Oh my god, my mum, mom" Jess corrected herself, she had been in London far too long "used to make that all the time" she sniffed the air and felt a sort of homey calmness she hadn't felt in almost five years.

*Brandi fought to suppress a smile as Jess corrected, but she knew full well accents were infectious.*
"Couldn't get away with it in my house." *She answered.* "My dad hates anything banana."
*She loosened the rein on her smile a bit.*
"But my friends in college always looked out for me."

"College" Jess chuckled, at the point she arrived here, she was barely 19 and realizing that her two year degree might take four years or more, and that maybe her future as a teacher, or writer, or whatever the hell she planned on being, might not be a reality anymore.
"I never got to finish it, ended up here before I even got a chance to experience all that was college life."

*Brandi stilled, a bit chastised at the thought. She licked her lips slowly before continuing.*
"I'm sorry. I imagine that...being here was kinda...well, not conducive to that sort of thing."
*She chewed her lip, not sure how to comfort her.*

"Well it seems you don't need a degree to work at a museum anyway" she chuckled "maybe after a while, I might go back to school. Maybe, if you know... time permits."

"A museum?" *Brandi's brow quirked in curiosity.*
"I had no idea you were into that sort of thing. Awesome though." *She smiled reassuringly before something hit her.*
"Like...history museum? Or art or...?" *She asked.*

Jess smiled "Uh... like the British museum in London."

"Oh!" *Brandi's cheeks and ears were already turning bright pink.*
"London. Right. Sorry." *She shook her head, looking to Jess sheepishly.* "There's just so many here, I didn't know if you were planning to stay."

"That's why I'm here actually, I'm here to meet a, uh" she grabbed her purse and rummaged through it mumbling something about cleaning it out one day and pulled out a letter "Sarah Gonzales, about a sword she claims is Excalibur. When she contacted the museum, it was just kind of ignored at first, but they wanted to make sure, you know? So they sent me.""

“Yeah.” *Brandi nodded in agreement.* “You can never be too sure around here.”
*Her brow lowered briefly.*
“That’s not Sarah, like Sarah, is it?” *She wasn’t actually sure of the sueauthor’s surname in hindsight.*

"I have no idea" Jess shook her head "Sarah's last name is Flea's or Fleeteys or something, I can't remember now. But then again, my last name here is apparently Cartwright" shrugging she finished off the remains of her tea, and exhaled.
"Really it's Couch, but all my papers say it's not so yay for random name changes?"

*Brandi offered a smile and a light giggle, but the question brought up some further confusion. She wasn’t really sure she had a last name anymore. She’d had one, of course. And still did, but…she couldn’t remember. Was this like Neverland, forgotten after too much angst time on the verse? She’d never needed it here, and to be honest…she rather thought that it would be Walker. You know, eventually.
She forced herself back to the conversation.*
“But a sword, eh? Expecting any complications dealing with it?” *Because isn’t that what the verse was all about? Well, that and sex.*

"Probably" Jess laughed "it would only make sense."

*Brandi’s brow crinkled slightly, if only for a moment.*
“Any idea what sort? I mean, are you expecting something you can…prepare for?” *She was willing to help if she could, but sometimes these things just weren’t predictable.*

"I can't be sure, you know these things just kind of happen. I'm sure whatever it is I can handle it, nothing out of the sort yet at least."
