Plus the people that he had met on his way to the manor had very strange yet sweet accents down here. They'd all been very accomadating once they heard his voice. 'You're Australian? No way. That's so cool. There were a couple points during the conversation where he would have to withdraw himself, otherwise, he would have never made it out of the aeroport. Seriously. It was definitely a culture shocking experience for him to come over to the States. He'd only ever been to the States once when he was very little; however, he didn't remember it too well.
Someone called out to him. Huh? He thought and turned around to find it was his good Lion friend there. Oh hey it was Zanderman! His friend looked good dressed up. Simon eyed the fedora and grinned at his friend. "Hey Zander! Looking dapper in the fedora mate! How's it going?" he asked, easily slipping back into a more comfortable state. Wait. He had to be a gentleman, right? Pretend he was in the 1920s?
What would have they said in the 1920s?
His eyes widened when he remembered. Oh right. He coughed.
"I mean. Wow. We're in the 1920s. I have to use their slangs," he explained. Uhh.. Now where..? Oh yeah! " It's good to see you, old sport! How are you?"
Much better. AH. Zander was definitely really thankful that his Super Siman was here too. It made standing in front of a huge mansion-house much less... intimidating. Yeah. It definitely helped him relax a little bit. Boy, he never knew that Emmylou had such a grand place in Alabama. No wonder she missed it here! If Zander had a house like this, he'd probably never leave. Actually no, he would. Did not need to be around his brothers any longer. So yeah, never mind. But still. It was HUGE.
Zander let out a laugh when Simon went all olden lingo on him. "Their slang?" BUT WAIT! He hadn't done any research or anything! How did 1920s people even speak?! He should've probably looked that up too... But after looking through pages of costumes online, he got all distracted with funny justice league videos! Ah, the internet is such a beautiful place with so many beautiful distractions. Ahem, anyways. "It's good to see you too!" Way good. "Oh, old sport!" he added as an after thought. He felt kind of lame to use Simon's slang right after he had said it, but again he didn't really have time for his own research  "You look pretty spiffy yourself, nice suit!" Spiffy? Wasn't that old time lingo too? Dapper... Spiffy... Nifty...? Yeah? "But I'm good! I mean... I'm dandy? I'm excited for this party! How are you doing?!"
