Mikey the Victorian spinster governess has brought his brother with him!
Mr Schetcher stands at the top of the steps and watches the carriage arrive. When he sees the figures step down he has a moment of thinking, the fuck?! but then his hand twinges and he itches at the bandage that's wrapped around his palm -- evidence of Frank's latest plan, an exploding tea cup.
Gathering himself, Brian goes down to the carriage and polite society dictates that he kiss the governess' hand, but she's -- he's? -- just standing still, saying nothing and expression frozen and Brian feels awkward and stupid as he thinks what to say. Which is when the other stranger bows low and theatrically swipes his hand through the air before clasping Brian's hand in a brief handshake before he says, "Gerard Way at your service. I'm Mikey's escort."
Brian manages a brief nod and tries not to stare at governess Way as the driver sets down a small bag before climbing back into the carriage.
Confused, Brian says, "Is that all? No trunks?" And Mr Way shakes his head and says, "We travel light."
Which is when there's a blood-curdling yell and Frank plummets from the second floor window, landing on the thankfully soft grass.
Exasperated, Brian's about to yell when the governess picks up his skirts at the front and strides forward, saying, "I'll deal with this."
