Peas in a Pod

Up until recently maintained as a museum, the childhood home of the Braddock family has been pressed into service as classroom space for the University. Additionally, the increased demands have led to the main ballroom being converted into a cafeteria for University students on a meal plan. The old library has been bolstered with college textbooks.

"Look, you don't need to follow me everywhere, alright? I'm not freaking going anywhere," Will groused as he entered the dining hall.

At some point in future time, I may -- or then again, I may not -- do a thing," Will teased, while Will frowned and glared at him.

The OTHER Will, on the other hand, looked concerned and frowned at Isolde. Again.

If it were me, I'd say turnabout is fair play," Will said, interrupting Will.

"Look, I promise you, I'm a lot more fun than Janitorial Closet Will. I will not now, nor will I ever ask to be rejoined with that pathetic, sycophantic, depressive masochistic moron," Will said, shifting back, and glancing at the other Will with every barb. "I should thank Miriam for stripping out the weak parts that were holding me back.

And maybe he can get a job as a...what was he doing in the closet, anyway?"
