The Name's Jay, Blue Jay

((Hey! New character! *trumpets* I posted another thing earlier in the week, which didn't get shot down, so here the official you-can-actually-respond-to-this post. :) ))
Curious… This is the place she stays in?
A seemingly spectral voice echoed through the empty kitchen. The man it came from had an amused smile on his face.
Blue Jay had arrived. His eyes flitted around the kitchen, more modern than anything he had back “home”, if you could call it that. His steps on the floor made no sound, but the airy whistles did. He was half here, half not, half fiction, half true. A small, triumphant smile was plastered on his face.
I’ve made it… I’ve made it! I’VE MADE IT!
He spun in a circle, arms spread wide, a silly grin on his face. He walked through the kitchen door and spotted a head of bright blue hair. He grinned once again and walked up behind her.
Boo.
Gemma screamed.
“Are you alright?” John Doe ((random NPC scientist to illustrate a point)), who Gemma was talking to, asked concerned for her well being.
Gemma’s mouth fell open. The character that she’d made up was currently staring at her, with the most infuriating grin on his face.
Helllooooo~
“Will you wipe that stupid grin off your face?” Gemma spat the words at him.
“Who are you talking to?”
“What?”
“There’s no one there…”
Right here. The man in question waved a hand in front of John's face.
“Yes there is John, your crazy.” Jane Doe ((likewise)) said, blatantly staring at Blue Jay.
“You're all crazy!” John exclaimed.
“John…” Jane ran after him, leaving Gemma and the Blue Jay, scowling and smirking respectively at each other.
((Random Guidelines: Blue Jay is a fictional Character. Some people can see him, some can’t, general guidelines are how open of a mind you have, if you imagine things or not, or if you believe in things easily.))

Gemma began to cough quite a bit, and something that sounded rather like "Bartholomew" could hardly be discerned.

Lewis came around the corner of the hall, headed for the kitchen. He saw Gemma and someone unfamiliar standing just outside the kitchen door, and caught the tail end of the Doe siblings' flight.
"Hello, Gemma," Weir greeted her as he approached on crutches. (He was making good time with them, these days.) He looked from her to her companion, and asked them both, "New lodger?"

Yes
"No."
Gemma glared at Blue Jay. "You're not staying!"
I believe I am. Blue Jay said, waving slightly at Lewis.
"Are you kidding me!?!" Gemma sighed, running a hand over her face out of frustration. "Sorry about him, I don't know why he's here..."
Yes you do Geneva~ he singsonged.
"Shut. up." Gemma's hand tensed, as if she was going to throw a punch. The hand, however, remained at her side.

"Oh, goodness," said Lewis. "'Didn't mean to cause a stir; sorry." He looked at the newcomer. "Though, if you'd like to become a lodger here, you should speak with Mz. Hyde, Dr. Jekyll, or Dr. Lanyon. They're in charge of deciding such matters," he explained.
"Ah, Lewis Weir, by the by," he put in, realizing he hadn't introduced himself. "Transcendental Metaphysicist."

Yup. Es' my name you see. Well, at least its what I go by. She- he jerked his thumb towards the kitchen door -Is probably the only one who knows my actual name. I don't have a last name yet, she hasn't found a suitable one. I like Blue Jay best anyway.

"To be fair, 'Jay' is a perfectly acceptable surname here in England," Weir remarked. "You could simply tell people 'Blue Jay' is your full name, if you liked. No one here would bat an eye."
He looked toward the kitchen, then back to Blue Jay.
"Have you and Gemma known each other long?"

After taking another batch, a compound that could last over 16 hours, Griffin realised he was out of white paint. This demanded a trip to the Society's kitchen, which, after his brief quarrel with Gemma, Griffin knew was a big mistake. He thought on the way of maybe just going out and stealing some from a paint shop, but decided against it. The nearest one was over half a mile away, and a bobbing tin of paint along the streets of London would attract attention. 
Dressed with his trusty black trench coat, Griffin tried best to avoid his colleagues, with many of their heads turning and sometimes their stomachs. Like I should care.
Reaching the kitchen, Griffin heard a scream. Gemma's scream. Probably dropped a plate or failed to boil an egg, Griffin thought, waiting by the door. After a few brief moments, Griffin heard a man shout, before storming out with a woman trailing behind him. Griffin recognised them as the Does. 
Griffin, sensing a buried bone in the situation, flung the trench coat off, then hanging it on a nearby hook. Slipping through the just enterable door, Griffin saw Gemma, scowling at a tall man with dark brown hair. He ducked behind one of the table-tops; then, realising he was invisible, got nearer to them.

Scared ya' Blue Jay stuck out his tongue.
"Well of course you did! Why wouldn't you! Why are you even here???" Gemma flung her arms into the air.
You know the answer to that Geneva. 
"Don't call me that."
Geneva 
"Shut. UP!"
Geneva, Geneva, Genev-
CLANG
Gemma had hit him with a frying pan.
OUCH! Blue Jay clutched his head, which had been injured by the rather heavy frying pan.
"That's what you get Bartholomew."
That's cruel Blue Jay scowled.
"You deserve it," she shot back, crossing her arms indignantly.

Griffin was confused by the man's appearance, not based on clothes or facial features, but his entire appearance. There, but not there. Who is he? Bartholomew?
Griffin wanted to speak out, but decided to let the event unfold. He had front row seats after all.

He paused. Do I have a last name?
"What?"

"Does he have a last name?!" Griffin repeated, accidentally and rather too loud. He immediately shoved his hands to his mouth, stifling a very rude word.

Gemma head snapped toward the voice. "Who's there?"
Someone logical apparently.
"No you don't have a last name you idiot."
Awwww......
Gemma looked around the kitchen for the source of the voice.

Even though he was invisible, Griffin still ducked beneath the tabletop. He began crawling away. This was a stupid mistake!
Griffin decided to stand up to see if Gemma had moved, and slammed his head on the bottom of an open drawer. 
"OW! Damn it!" Griffin yelled in pain, clutching his head.

Bartholomew is fictional? What is this? And yes, Gemma, I am fully invisible.
Deciding to prove her wrong, Griffin picked up a large cleaver and slammed it down on one of the chopping boards.

"WHAT IN THE-" Gemma jumped. "What the heck was that???" Her eyes searched the kitchen until she spotted the cleaver. "Oh... It must have fell..."

"And you're not even real."
