[Meeting time! Everyone come in, mingle, greet the newbies. Yuan's sitting at the front of the room, surrounded by more papers than usual, and looking...particularly grim? That seems strange, considering that they've won the big fight.

Haven't they? ...Maybe he's just tired.]

[Alan is just going to observe for a little while to get a feel of the place, taking a few sips of coffee here and there.]

[jamesholmes]

[James knows that feeling all to well, you work with Helen Magnus and well, crazy follows.] Yes indeed, yes indeed.

So, do you have a family Mr Bradley?

[is0latedthinker]

[He does indeed, and he's proud of them.] My wife and foster son - the latter of which ended up here, actually.

[jamesholmes]

[And he picks up on that pride, it's always good to see a man proud of his family.] You are a lucky man, how long have you and your wife been married? And, who is your foster son?

[is0latedthinker]

We've been married... twenty-two years, now. My foster son is Sam Flynn. [Yep, son of his best friend, you heard right.]

[jamesholmes]

Well then congratulations on such a long and I would presume, happy marriage. [He's sounding happy at that and then he chuckles. He's heard of weirder things, his oldest friend adopted a boy she found in the woods alright?] I haven't had the fortune of meeting him but I have only been here a short time, so it is to be expected.

[is0latedthinker]

Thank you. [He smiles.]

He's a good kid, even if he shares some of my 'bad tastes'.

[jamesholmes]

You're very much welcome.

[He laughs.] That's only to be expected, even if he is your foster son, he's still your son.

[is0latedthinker]

Yeah. [And even if he weren't, he'd be just like one!]

Do you keep in contact with people outside of your experiment? [It'd be hard to live for that long and see how the people around you fared.]

[jamesholmes]

I can see that yes. [He's had the same experience, Ashley may not have been his but she had been as good as.]

My work, as you could probably gather is not exactly the most, sociable affair. But I do work with others outside of the experiment, interact with the world, recover other abnormals.

[is0latedthinker]

The contact's good, nevertheless. Glad to hear that not you haven't shut yourself away.

[jamesholmes]

I highly doubt that I would be allowed to even if I wanted too.

[He grins a little.]

Are you afraid I am some sort reclusive mad scientist who deals with monsters?

[is0latedthinker]

[He chuckles.] You seem personable enough to me.

[jamesholmes]

[He shakes his head.] That I'm glad to hear, many get the wrong impression when they hear about my, adventures in my youth.

[is0latedthinker]

[Alan shrugs.] I'd rather get to know people firsthand than judge on suspicion.

[He let Dillinger, Jr. rise through the company, after all (even if he wasn't happy with the sass).]

[jamesholmes]

[James nods, though he smiles quite widely at that.] Far too true, first impressions always tend to be, misleading. Even with the keenest of eyes and skills.

[Well not always, but he wasn't going to brag about his skills.]
