[The video flicks on to briefly show a red-haired man, or, at least, half of him. It’s difficult to pinpoint his actual age, if you pause the video and try. Pausing is, of course, necessary, because two seconds later, the video flips off again. It takes a little while but eventually, text goes up to accompany the brief video.]

It won’t erase. Which is so incredibly unhelpful that I can only assume it’s purposeful. I can’t say I was expecting to end up with one of these in my pocket so suddenly, either.

Someone else has just appeared and stepped directly in the fountain, which is daft, really. It’s not hard to miss. Although I expect someone very clearly stepping in it just now proves that it is rather hard to miss, in fact, and I may have fountain immunity. I wasn’t aware of that, but there you are.

The only important thing I can think of to ask, while we’re both here, whoever you are that’s reading this, is what the conditions of here are? I appreciate knowing when it’s somewhere new.

Oh, lots of things. Ice cream is really awesome.

I can't disagree with that. In fact, I agree rather a lot.

Oooh, awesome. Also pecan pie. Pecan pie is pretty much amazing! Oh, and chocolate brownies.

And do you know anyone who might provide these things for the pleasure of our company?

I might know a place. You hungry?

Always. I'm also Luke.

Hi Luke! I'm always Dulcie. Well. Usually.

Oh good. I'm only often Luke myself. I can see we'll get along famously.

Would you like to meet me, or have you a flame you can kindle?

Which one will be faster?

How fast are you?

[There's a tap on your shoulder, Luke. Dulcie is standing behind you, smiling. Sorry, she can't give up a chance to show off.]

Hi.

[Luke turns, putting his device away in his pocket as he does so, looking delighted.]

Hello! You're not an ordinary mortal, are you?

Neither, actually.

Neither am I!

[This has made him very happy. They have all SORTS of things in common. Also: she's pretty.]

General myth, or pantheon?

What does 'angel' count as?

Good question. I've not actually met one before.

[He leans in, like this is a big important secret he's divulging.]

I'm Loki, but don't spread it about, I've a rather bad mythological reputation.

Oh my gosh, really? That is so cool.

It is, isn't it? What about you? What do you do as an angel?

I'm a delivery girl, mostly. Getting information to people who need it.

Is it fun?

Depends on what the delivery is.

I suppose it would. [Luke ponders this, and then:]

So! The pie and ice cream. [He looks at Dulcie hopefully.]

Oh yes. I know the right place.

[She holds out her hand, wiggling her fingers.]

You in?

[Luke is quick to take her hand.]

Whyever would I not be?

[She starts tugging him towards the direction of her favourite cafe.]
