Malcolm gave a small scoff. "Well, I'm glad that even though you don't like them, you like me." Did he really want to be associating with this guy?

Though he supposed fast friends might prove useful, almost as useful as information, perhaps. "Depending on who you ask, it's either Gavin Stark or Malcolm Reed. What about yourself? And do you always make it a habit of shouting up to the heavens?" Not that he realized that was exactly what was happening. And he might leave Gabriel to guess which name was which. Malcolm wasn't entirely certain what would happen if anyone were caught truly perpetuating their "dream" names, so a little care might have to be taken. At least for now.
