“Fancy a spot of tea?” Brian asked.
“That was the worst English accent I have ever heard,” Jessica said.
“Ever?”
“Ever.”
“Harsh.”
“I hope your tea is better than your accent.”
“It is. Here. Careful, it’s hot.”
Jessica blew gently on her tea, then carefully sipped. “Mmm… It’s sweet, but there’s something a little tart. Wha…” She grabbed at her throat.
“Remember that time, 30 seconds ago, when you made fun of my English accent?”
Jessica only managed a gurgle in response.
“I’ve been planning my revenge ever since,” Brian cackled through his pseudo-English accent. “At last, vengeance is mine!”

30 seconds… ever since… clearly the alien is from a world with an entirely bizarre sense of time. Which makes it very, very interesting 🙂
