Status: Public :: Complete
James had been in house for a week, it was time to venture out. He'd had clothing delivered from Kingsley Shacklebolt, and it still flipped his mind that Kingsley was so old. And that Kingsley wouldn't answer his questions about the future - he wondered if he'd become a famous Quiddith player or something equally useless, he wondered if he'd died in his work as an Auror. Well, assuming he'd finished the application and actually gone into the DMLE. He'd spent time thinking in circles around all that he'd been told and wondering if the last of the Marauders were also here - maybe they could continue as if nothing had happened? Kingsley had told him that Sirius was here, but usually scouting the land outside of the Settlements, and he mentioned Lily, too. Having his friends would be all he really needed, after all, they were all he had back in the UK, too.
Finally sick of waiting around for stories he didn't think would be told, he put on a pair of jeans - they were quite skinny and he'd been assured they were the norm these days - and a comfortable t-shirt (at least those hadn't changed in... what? Twenty, tweny-five years?) before heading out into the heat and wandering toward the center of the village. Things were high tech here, but also quaint, almost like when magical met muggle in the real world. Tomorrow he'd be starting his job helping to work with technology here in the Settlement (something about having time to settle in) and he was excited to get his hands on gadgets he'd never dreamed of in 1978.
But for now, it was to the comfort of a pub that he headed and when he entered he nodded at the cute young thing behind the bar. She looked his age, maybe younger, maybe older, but with pouty lips and curly dark hair, he didn't particular care her age. He ordered a pint and introduced himself. Her face twitched just for a moment before she just nodded, gave him a smile and brought him his drink. "I'm sorry, do I know you?" He ventured, due to her strange reaction.
"Um, no, no you don't, and it's a shame, too," she answered, not giving anything away but a flirtatious nature. He smiled in return and thanked her for his drink, grateful when she was called to a table on the front patio. Looking around, he didn't find any familiar faces, but he suppose he hadn't expected to, and he sipped his drink grateful to pass the time somewhere other than his spacious, empty home.

He hesitated before nodding and then making his way down her stone walk back to the street. He looked back one more time to wave and see if she was heading into the house alright, and then with a bent head, he headed home.
