Not really. Unless there's anything you'd like from me. [He's not in a hurry to leave, has no where else to be, and would rather be with company than not. But he has no reason to stay either unless Jacob wants him to.]
[He leans back on the bed, the pillows against his back.]
No. I was going to watch my show in fucking silence. C'mon.
[He takes out his phone and holds it up, inviting Norton to join him if he wants. The screen is small, but still able to play the wildlife show he's seen a dozen times.]
[Norton does few things in silence, and watching any sort of show or film is not one of those things. So Jacob is going to be subjected to bursts of commentary, observations, and quips throughout. To his eyes, Alaska looks a lot like Montana. There are tall mountains and endless forests and large mammals and it all looks so much less domesticated than even the most rural parts of England. He wonders if that's the appeal for Jacob.]
[Jacob doesn't mind the chatter. As long as he can get away with a few grunts of acknowledgement or short answers, he's happy enough. But he does let Norton know that he's right. He likes these shows because he wants to be there. If he can't be in nature, he'll do this.]
Although I will point out that I routinely ask if you want anything and this is the first I've heard about a television. You can ask me to do things without it being begging. Plenty of very butch people have asked me to do things for them in a manner that was not at all like begging.
Anyhoo, I'll ask the Admiral for a television and a..Dee-Vee-Dee player. Also in a commanding, not begging sort of way. I think the Admiral likes it when I'm a bit forceful.
No, it's just the letters. You don't have to draw them out. DVD. Three letters. But a portable one. [He got the idea from Astarion's. He can watch his shows anywhere he wants.]

Be easier if I had a TV or DVD player.

I didn't want anything like that until now.
I'm losing my goddamn mind.

Sounds good. Now you can get out.
