[All things considered, Ezio has had a busy day, but now he's out and about. He's hit up a dozen or so stores in town, mostly for painting frames and books, and perhaps you've see him running errands.
Later, however, he will be sitting down at his desk to scrawl out:]
I seldom write in this journal. I think that is funny; for every boy who knows how to write, three sit without education, and here I squander my gifts and ignore books. My sister does more writing than I do, and her talent is a rarity amongst women!
It has been more than a year since I have arrived –– closer, still, to thirteen months -- and each day I learn new things about the future, history, science, and even the human body. I do not think many days have passed in the past four hundred that saw me sitting idle and failing to learn!
Yet still, when I spoke to a young woman the other week, she was hard-pressed to believe that I would return to my time, forsaking the knowledge and science and hygiene of the future. I prefer the conventions of my time, and my culture, and I have work to do. So, I wonder, then...
How many of you would go home with another, to their time instead of yours?
I'm going to miss plumbing. I think that is what you call it –– "plumbing." Even after all this time, sometimes it is fun to turn on the "tap" simply to marvel at its convenience. It is a wonder there is so much water about without the streets being flooded like the canals of Venezia.
And I have such good memories of the miracles of showers, with thanks to some of the beautiful women in this castle.

Do you think something like that is even possible?
[Tim sure as hell hopes not. The last thing he needs is Renaissance people either following Steph or kidnapping her to their world. However, if they do find a way out then it is a possibility.]
no subject
Who knows? I have been led to believe that time travel is possible, so it is wise to at least entertain the idea.
no subject
[Wants to switch over to private, but he figures Ezio would find that strange. Ezio would probably share this part of the conversation with Steph if she asked.]

Hi!
[She's in a good mood, seeing as the world didn't explode when she was (mostly) honest with Tim.]
no subject
You should be careful about that, dolcezza, I could have wet you with blood for surprising me.
[But he opens his free arm for a hug, his other arm laden with bags.]
no subject
[Because that's the last thing she needs, getting stabbed by Ezio. He gets a hug, but doesn't get his arm back as she slips her hand into the crook of his elbow.]
What's all this?
[So many bags!]
