Old-fashioned, huh? [ The natural warmth in William Walker’s drawl is set in deep despite the chill of the rest of him, like an asphalt road hours after the sun has set. James Patrick March sure as hell sounds old-fashioned, if not necessarily in the way William’s accustomed to. ]
I’m amenable.
[ Might as well be, with the way Mister March has come sailing for him out of far left field. Thrown, most likely. He scrolls across the screen of a clunky tablet with his cigarette hand. Hotel Castile. ]
Sounds like you know where I’m officed out of.
[ ...Isn’t a question, really. Sideways smiley face. ]
I would certainly be willing to come to you, yes. [Sideways smile face with mustache right back at you buddy. March doesn't mind giving up the home team advantage, at all. More thrilling this way. He'll get to see Willy ShootEmUp in his natural environment and he'd be an idiot to turn that down.] When would be best for you, Mister Walker?
[Do not worry. He will become "dear" and "darling" soon enough.]
[ William grins past the receiver at March’s italics, tongue wetted past his teeth. What’s the point of being trapped in an alternate universe if you don’t get some roaring twenties weirdo ringing you up out of the blue for a private audience every now and again. ]
How’s tomorrow afternoon for you?
[ He checks his communicator while he waits for an answer, and carefully deletes an existing appointment. ]

[Even if some disaster befalls the city, lol ghost powers. He'll be fine.]
Thank you very much for being so obliging, Mister Walker. I do look forward to meeting you in person.
