Oh thank god. The hardest part about being a time traveler was that Jié didn't have an ID to buy alcohol with. The only way to get a decent drink anywhere was when someone else bought it for him. Now here he was, being offered one for free without even having to turn on his charms.

So, with a light-hearted grin he stopped near enough to be heard. “Ya sound rather good mate. Do ya know any Billy Joel?”
