Dour, and paralyzed by indecision, and probably half-mad after everything that happened, though he hides it well. But also charming in his own way.
"If you find anything useful in there," Elton says, "I'm buying dinner. Or breakfast."
"It's a…deal," you say, and head off.
"Don't get killed!" he calls after you. "I'll wait inside."
It's like Elton still can't quite shake the rust out of his joints. But you can't just stand outside in the freezing rain, trying to remind an English werewolf how to flirt.
The woods are cold and it's already getting dark; your breath steams, but you're wearing basically all your clothes, which means you're warm. You have physical printouts of Elton's maps and you downloaded copies to your phone, so this shouldn't be too difficult, especially since it's just a preliminary scouting expedition. And of course, you've thought about what you want.
I need to learn more about what happened to Broad Brook, at the Battle of Graves Farm and before.
I want to find something that shakes Elton out of his funk and banishes his despair.
I'd love to stomp some Wyrm-spawn. I won't do anything reckless tonight, but maybe I can find and get rid of some fomori.
