After a good lunch of Thai food, Jay went back on the mission he started on when he left his mother's apartment: track down the errant knight. He stopped in a specialty shop on the way and came out with a large bag with something round in it. He made his way toward where his "sources" told him Marcus would be.
Though he couldn't track the knight by his scent at the moment, he did spot a clean hobo relaxing way up on Marcus's balcony. Jay went to the front door and knocked loud.
The knock startled the book out of Marcus's hand. His finely tuned knightly senses kept hold of the ice cream, though. Priorities! He turned and glared back over his shoulder in the general vicinity of the door.
Now what?
He set the ice cream carefully down and shuffled, less than heroically, to the door and unlocked it. When he pulled it open and spied who was on the other side, he was tempted to close it again. Not because he didn't want to see Jay, but seeing Jay with a mysterious bag in hand sent his remember-the-squirrels sense tingling.
Fortunately, the bag did not appear to be squirming in any squirrel-like way.
Jay blinked. Nope. Marcus still looked like a hermit. No random miracle of a good grooming fairy visiting the knight. Or he was working on becoming the Biker Knight.
"Yes, it would be. I think you have the ice cream angle covered. Can I come in?"
The bag in his hand did not have a magical headgear in it, so it stayed as still as a normal item could be.

"Is it too much to hope that that is ice cream?"
