Well Timed

Alain decided he was more likely to stay sane through twenty years reign as emperor, if he went into the past and chose his brother/best friend himself. The time machine was configured as a 1963 Corvette and he liked the car and what he'd read about the young people of the time. He noted the setting in 1964 had been visited, but not explored. Some things just don't show up in a history search.

"Fat, weird Gordan" didn't know why the movie-star-looking guy seemed to have decided they were going to be friends, but he rather liked it. And the guy kept calling him "man." He definitely liked that.

Mac laughed at herself and worked to fit her age into the conversation. She knew how young she looked. She wasn't sure why, but she'd rescued lost puppies before and the two were as cute as any of those.
