[Jacob Stone comes from a world of both smartphones and magic (and sometimes those smartphones had magic in them), so he isn't entirely unfamiliar with this. The Omni is a little awkward at first to deal with, but he's managing.
What he isn't managing, is the rattlesnake that seems intent on curling around his shoulders in a cozy fashion.]
Hi. My name is Jacob Stone, I just got here, so there's a lotta new things I ain't quite got the hang of yet.
Uh.
So.
So can y'all tell me if there's an incantation or something to get rid of--of whatever this little critter is?
[The snake looks just as grumpy as he does, for a moment, and hisses at him. He looks mildly offended at the gesture, or maybe the snake might have said something rude.]
I'm not--I don't use magic, I mean, but this thing just sort of appeared outta nowhere and now it won't go. I didn't mean to summon it! But I guess I did and now I don't know how t'make it go away.
[He's just...a little stressed. Being a Librarian whose job it is to find magical artifacts and hide them from the world and as a rule doesn't use magic because he's terrified of it is now in a world absolutely steeped in it, and he just accidentally summoned a smoky creature right out of his chest.
It's fine. He's fine?]

Nah, don't worry about it. Who knows, I really could have a long-lost twin I know nothin' about. Weirder things have happened.

Anyway, I don't think you can get rid of the fuckers, they're like... uhh, you ever read "His Dark Materials?"

[He had kind of a crush on an evil badass lady villain too so he gets it.]
Yeah, I have! You're sayin' they're like daemons? [That actually makes perfect sense.]
