So then. I'm your temp warden for the month. The name's John Constantine. You interested in meeting or talking?
[After a day goes by with no response, John checks the cabin list and decides to come looking for Nokov. The name is totally unfamiliar, so he has no idea whatsoever who might answer when he shows up at 4:03 and knocks on the door.]
Nokov uses his cabin sparingly, which is still more than can be said for his use of his communicator, which is located... somewhere.
The knocking is an unusual enough occasion that he opens the door, revealing a teenager John may have notice standing in the shadows of the deck or deep in the library and a dark room behind him.
"If I wanted one, I would have it." He likes to speak with complete certainty. He also might not be a human teenager, but it can sometimes be very difficult to tell.
"I exist, you exist to work for the being who has trapped me here." He would fold his arms, but he's trying not to overly jostle his splinted fingers.
John's pretty good as a rule at reading below the surface; being able to tell there's something off, or there's more to a person than meets the eye. Generally that's pretty blatant when the person in question is possessed by a demon, for example, not that it seems to be the case at all here.
"Glad to hear it. Not quite, mate. I'm here because of that being, but I exist due to the sordid passions of my parents. Big difference."
For the most part, right now, Nokov looks human. His shadow is a little too dark, and if you look into his dark eyes there appear to be sparks of starlight deep within the shadows of his skull.
He rolls his eyes.
"I assume you also exist in the assumption that you have a sense of humor."
He grins, even though it's pretty obvious that Nokov didn't appreciate the joke much. But then, others seldom do. John's sense of humor is an acquired taste.
"That's me mate—inappropriate jokes for any occasion."

Getting drunk and watching porn might qualify as a purpose after all.
"Anyway, let me know if you need anything, yeah?"

"I need nothing from you."

And he'll turn to leave.
