[Dixon stands out as someone who probably isn't native to Rivendell, given that over the fresh clothes the elves gave him he's wearing his beat-up orange corduroy jacket, which has bloodstains the elves did a game job of washing out and a hole in the back from where he got stabbed. The burn scars on his face and the tunic may fit right in with the medieval setting, but nothing else does.
Probably most tellingly, he's got an iPod in his hand, and is gesturing at it to some dwarves at the long table he's seated with. One of the dwarves has an earbud in, and the others are leaned in listening intently to another one propped on the table. A tinny rendition of "Manic Monday" is nearly lost among the sounds of the Hall of Fire.]
Huh? [Dixon startles a bit when Keith comes up and addresses him. For a moment, given the clothing, Dixon just assumes Keith's an elf, and then it clicks into place that he must be one of the new folks who just happened to change their clothing before anything else. He takes a swig of his beer and gets up, telling the dwarves to keep playing with the iPod without him, citing that the entire Bangles discography is great.
He gestures to the hallway nearby, since the sound here will make a serious conversation a little difficult.]
Wow, you've got to be disoriented right now. Anyone already walked you through anything?
