"Hello, Theo?"

Theo feels his phone ring while he's riding his bike so he stops to answer it. He recognizes Ruby's number as the incoming call.
"Hello, Ruby. How are you do you?"

"Theo, we just got a few new employees at the museum and one of 'em was askin' about a tour before he got started. You wouldn't happen to be free to take him from front end to back, would you?" Ruby asks, crossing her fingers.

"When?" he asks and then "Now?!" he was hadn't expected to be called in for an emergency replacement tour today and he was half way across town. And the way Ruby said it, it probably was a mage and he hadn't ever prepared a tour for a mage before.

"Oh, no no!" She sounds embarrassed. "Not today, probably the day after tomorrow. I'm not sure if you've got that day off or not."
"It's Jordan, do you know him?"
|
|
|
|

The relief can be heard very clearly in Theo's voice "No, I don't but I am mostly free then. I have one tour in the morning. When did you want me to show Jordan around?"

"It's no problem," he smiles "I'll start preparing a tour. Till later."
He waits to see if Ruby has anything else before actually hanging up.
