Were he not possessing some semblance of attention to Time he might not have given half a damn about what he was wearing when he had guests over but then again there is always the art and appeal of defying expectations. The kids have already seen him disheveled once recently. If he wanted to come to the door in a cardigan and old-man slippers he would have.
Or maybe he just forgot what day it was and had to wear a suit anyway. Scientists are always trying to impress each other after all. Industry secret.
The layout of the house is not such that one who is stood in the kitchen can see what is happening at the front door. One has to walk past the stairwell and through the dining room in order to reach the kitchen. But they can hear each other as echoes. The low hum of an impression of voices.
Pen's voice he recognizes.
To Ned he says, as an aside, "That is who I thought it was. Speaking to a war mage may actually do your friend some good."
With that he goes back to reassembling the bags of foodstuff dragged out of the refrigerator. Dinner isn't going to cook itself.
Or will it.

Look. I have school. And RP. And all my other time is taken up by sheer, unreasoning panic. I don't have time for Reddit.
