[someone else who jogs up to handshakes? hooray, a fellow dork! Norman returns the handshake enthusiastically, already reaching into his pocket with his other hand to fish out his keycard]
You're absolutely right.
[he gestures to the clearly marked laundry room door nearby]
This'll do nicely. Wait till you see this, it's amazing.
[he holds up the black card, its holographic pattern flashing briefly in the light as he reaches up and swipes it through the door frame like a credit reader. green light envelops the doorframe, then it clicks faintly like a maglock. Norman will never, ever get tired of how amazing this little trick of Elias' is, and is smiling as he pushes the door open to reveal the front room of the Arcade, not the banks of washers and dryers Steven might have been expecting]
Go on in. You're my guest, and Elias doesn't mind guests in the least.
