Michael was holding out some hope that his family could be here - Max, Isobel, Alex, Liz, any of the others, but he was more than a little pissed at being pulled into wherever this place was. At least, he thought with a inward chuckle, he had been wearing clothes. It would have been a hell of a lot worse showing up naked. Probably would have given the girl he was talking to now a fright, too. Or maybe she would have enjoyed it.
He shouldn't comment on that out loud, should he?
The curtsy was cute, but it also told her she was from some kind of old timey place where women still did that kind of thing. Her question about the phone reinforced that assumption. It probably would have been better for her if she'd met someone else first. Michael had a knack for offending delicate sensibilities without even meaning to.
