Jake had been in Goodland nearly two months already, and he barely knew anyone in the apartments. He needed to fix that, needed to put himself out there more, meet people, make not only friends but allies. There was no telling when things would go belly up, as they were prone to do, and had done a couple weeks ago. Which reminded him he should probably check in with Sam and see how he was doing. They had made a decent team against the dementors, and Sam was definitely someone Jake wanted in his corner the next time things went south.
He wasn't so sure Klaus would be good to have in a fight, but that didn't mean he didn't have something to offer. Jake felt an ease in talking to him that he hadn't felt with too many people in his entire life. He decided he wanted to pursue that, and see where it might take him. So here they were, going out for drinks and conversation. Jake had no expectations, only the hope of making a new friend. He had a feeling Klaus knew how to keep things interesting and maybe that was something that drew Jake to him.
"So I didn't ask before," Jake said. It was lame, but he felt like it was a decent place to start a conversation. "How long have you been here in Goodland? Where did you come from?"
