Up go the eyebrows.

"Happy and relaxed? Why ever would encouraging that be illegal," he smirks. "Why don't we suggest to Ethan that he try it?"

After carefully depositing his armful of stuff -- which he intends to carry in for her, later -- on a bench, Jamie gives Eleanor a meaningful look and swings himself around one of the poles holding the tin roof over the truck, the bike and some other large vehicle under a tarp. Along the wall of the house, he sees a large metal box, full of thin, impractical looking drawers, and decides to investigate. It's nothing but a glorified toolbox, but it's all shiny and new to Jamie. He rifles through wrenches and screwdrivers and some cylindrical toy he flips to the side, until one of the drawers jams. Looking around, he gives it a swift, surreptitious yank.

Plastic cards fly through the air and fall to litter the ground at their feet.

"Mithros," Jamie swears quietly, bending on one knee to gather them up.
