thedevamper | A private housewarming

It wasn't quite up to Nikola's exacting standards. It hardly had the lab or the technology that Nikola was used to and it certainly didn't have the cellar with all Nikola's favourite wines but really Nikola was growing sick of the Compound and his lack of space to work there in his rooms. He had work to do in his new abode but for the moment the work would have to wait. The island of course was yet again interfering in his plans to renovate.

The hut wasn't large or grand but the house it had changed into at least had some of the gravity that Nikola had been lacking recently. Two floors, a porch and a large roaring fire as well as bedrooms had at least comforted Nikola when he had returned to the property with his belongings. Setting up room for him to work in the living area, Nikola made his bedroom and living area t least habitable before building the fire waiting Alcuin's arrival.

Leaving the door open, Nikola removed his jacket and tie settling beside the fire as he began to work through his research and results for the day.

Alcuin wasn't certain what to make of the island change this time, as the setting was something that had very little frame of reference for aside from what he had read in books. He did not mind the clothing so much, however, and the storm gray three-piece suit seemed made for him. He even pulled his hair back as it seemed more the fashion.

Nikola had given him directions to his new home and so he appeared with a bottle of whiskey that he had gotten from a shop. It was, it seemed much easier to find good liquor than wine here.

"Hard at work already, I see?"
