BWI Airport Portalocity Lounge, Saturday Morning

[mustbeawitch]

Lydia had found the portal to be a much faster means of transportation from Sainte Josephine to Maryland than by ship (with the added bonus of not having to spend several days upon the sea), so that was quite satisfactory, although when she had arrived she had inquired about where to find a footman to help with her trunk and been directed to a wheeled cart she was apparently expected to push herself! Hmph. And the cup of tea she'd gotten was just dreadful, but she supposed she should have expected as much from a stand mostly selling coffee--and in paper cups!

At least the (rather gaudy) banner on the wall gave her certainty she was waiting in the right place, and she settled to mentally compose a letter to Miss Lambe whilst she did so.

((Iiiiiit's newbie shuttle time!))

"An 'engine?'" Regency, Anakin. Regency. "Like in a locomotive?" Lydia remembered hearing people talk about those newfangled things, but personally she didn't think they'd take off.

"Yes," Anakin said because eh, close enough. "A much smaller version of a locomotive."

"Don't those go on tracks...?" She'd never actually seen one, mind you.

She'd also heard they were filthy and got soot all over your clothes, so she wanted to make it clear that, "This is a brand new pelisse."

"They don't always go on tracks," Anakin said with the blithe confidence of a guy not from this planet. "And it's a very nice...pelisse."

"Thank you for the kind compliment." It really was, wasn't it. She had needed some new things, as Maryland was a cooler climate than Sainte Josephine. It had been a need, all right? "So do I just..." she gestured vaguely toward the...conveyance. "Climb aboard?" Weren't you going to offer the young lady a hand, Anakin?

How declasse of him not to offer immediately. "Just take that step there," he said, offering his hand.
