[ in some ways, tommy feels the same way. adventure is great. being snatched from his own world and into one where he's put in a crappy situation... not so much. but, he'll make do with what he's got. because he's got to and tommy really isn't one to roll over and let anyone walk all over him.
so, he's keeping that guard up beneath the surface of smiles, sarcasm and jokes. undetectable, he thinks. and that's enough.
he's had his fill of the feast, for now, and wants to go stretch his legs, so to speak. his head is down—for just a moment, there was one last piece of bread in his hand that he shoved so gentlemanly into his mouth—and his shoulder collides with another solid body.
a muffled noise is started, intending to be a word, but he chokes. then coughs. this could be going better. ]
Sorry— [ a smile is given, charming as he can muster. which, btw, is quite charming. ] Didn't knock anything lose, did I?
