"Carter, is that guy wearing tights?"
"Actually, sir, they're leather pants."
"But those are ruffles right?"
"Yes, sir."
"Are those house-elves?"
"Those are my goblins," the object of their scrutiny drawled.
O'Neill and Carter exchanged looks.
The man--for lack of a better word--was dressed rather flamboyantly, with feathered blonde hair, an unsettling pair of eyes that pointed towards heterochromia, and--was that eye shadow?
"Goblins?" Jack questioned skeptically.
"Yes," the man confirmed.
"And you are?" Jack inquired somewhat sarcastically.
"Jareth, King of the Goblins."
"Riiight," Jack nodded mockingly. "Carter? Just what was in those cookies you made?"
Jareth ignored Jack's remarks, "Cassandra has thirteen hours in which to reach the end of my Labyrinth."
"Cassandra? What do you want with Cassie?" Carter questioned with suspicious anger and definite threat.
"I? I want nothing of Cassandra. She wished for me to take you. I believe her words were, 'God, I wish the damned Goblin King would take you away!' So, I did. She seems to have changed her mind though. Therefore, she must defeat my Labyrinth within the allotted time to free you," Jareth answered with sneering contempt.
"Carter?"
"Sir?"
"You wouldn't happen to have your side arm with you would you?"
"No, Sir."
"Figures."
…
"Hey, Jareth! You got any beer around here? We were in the middle of dinner when youapparated us away."
"I absolutely loathe that novel."
"Now,that,
is evil."
