     oh. that – yeah, that felt pretty nice. michael couldn’t help the growing smile, a warmth spreading. a compliment that he wasn’t used to receiving. “ah – thanks. that means a lot. but, uh, yeah it’s better to talk to someone who gets it. seems we have things in common.” which was nice. even with other magic users michael didn’t always feel like he MESHED with them. as though there was something different about him. “you’ll have to let me know if you ever try that. i’ll never get the pointy nose thing. or the warts. i think i’m actually a little offended by all of that. humans have quite the imagination.” there was no offense at the comment. davina was right, after all. it was a test. “no offense taken. figured everyone has their own way of doing things. i’m… not sure, actually. when all of this happened they just DISAPPEARED.” it was…. disheartening to say the least. michael glanced over at her, brows furrowed. “i – there’s just someone i feel like i’m trying to remember but i can’t. oh, i bet that would be nice. getting an actual recipe from someone who’s lived through this era. that would be fun to do.”

       a nod  ,   she finally feels  ...  comfortable  ,   for a lack of better wording  .   it doesn’t happen a lot  ,   davina  DOESN’T  like getting attached  .     “  yeah  -  no problem  .   i get it  .   i  used  to have some people i could talk about this stuff with but  ...  ”    a shrug  .     “  most of them died  .  ”     or  she  died  .   or  ,   she was worried they  WOULD  die if they stuck around  .    kol was perhaps the one  decision  she ever made  ,   without  death  on the table  .      “  i’ll see if i figure it out  .   i mean  ,   what else would i do with my time ?   not like there’s google anymore  .   flying seems  PRETTY  cool  ,   though  .   if i could figure it out  ,   it’d be awesome  .   humans always did have a habit of de-humanizing what they didn’t understand  .   you see it time and time again in history  ,   as  EXCUSES  for their actions  .  ”    a slight frown upon her lips  ,   she’ll study him for a moment  .      “  do you  WANT  them to find you here ?  ”     an honest question  -  she doesn’t think she’d want her old coven to find her  .   a pause  ,   she’ll place her hand on his forearm and give a small squeeze  .     “  it’s okay  .   i think we   MIGHT   be able to figure out french toast if put both our heads together  ,   right ?  ”    and cue a comforting  ,   but still  charming  smile from her  .

           ❝  yeah  ,  WELL  ,  a hoard of bunnies rasping about the twenties didn’t give me many clues as to what was going ON  ,  but  …  doesn’t matter now  .  ❞  quentin uncomfortably shuffles in his overcoat  ,  distant gaze roaming over the skyscrapers and unusual attire worn by passing strangers  –  and margo  ,  for that matter  .  he hastily threaded fingers through his disheveled hair and eyebrows furrow  .   ❝   now I’m here and NONE of this makes any sense  ;  what’s the –  the PURPOSE or QUEST  ,  why the TWENTIES  ,  why  —  how —  ❞  a shallow swallow and an even more confused expression  ,   ❝  what’s wrong with eliot  ?  ❞

          “  time travel quentin  .    what  ,   did you think i was inviting you to a  GATSBY  viewing ?  sometimes i wonder why i bother trying  .  ”    a shake of her head  ,   she’ll reach over to tug on some of his loose hair  .     “  you need to cut your hair  .   and get some clothes to fit with the time period  .   i’ll take you to the hotel  .   do  NOT  lose your shit  ,   i’m not accustomed to the alcohol here yet  .  ”    margo swallows  ,   she’ll avoid eye contact for a moment  .      “  no  FUCKING  clue  .   the only other quest-like thing i’ve seen is other magic users  .  ”    a pause  ,   she shakes her head  .     “  he doesn’t  REMEMBER  .   himself  ,  or  ...  --  us  .  ”

        “i had that when i still lived with my grandmother. though she tended to be rather STRICT on such things.” hardly any thought had ever been put into the situation. that was just his life. it had become the norm. “oh, that’s something i completely agree with. magic has always been the most important thing within my life. i couldn’t imagine not having it.” michael wasn’t even sure who he would be without magic. it had just become such a part of himself. “it really does  SOUND interesting. especially the thought of being around other magic users. do all the other individuals who specialize in physical magic tend to stick around one another?? or do you all mingle with others??” he was more than a little curious. michael didn’t exactly have too many of his own references whenever it came to school. “well, by all means.” he wouldn’t want to be disrespectful to royalty. besides, he wanted to. michael lowered himself into a bow, head lowered before straightening back up. “mm – life does have a way of throwing curve balls. funny how some friendships are born. he sounds interesting, at the very least. rather ballsy for the god thing but – guess that’s life or whatever. always figured gods and such beings would have egos to protect.” wow. that was about all the warlock could really think in this moment as he gazed at margo. she was just unlike anyone he’d ever met before. “i can tell. you kind of, uh, LIGHT up when talking about this. it’s nice. i’d really love to hear everything. and coming from the king herself?? consider me HONORED.”

            “  your grandmother  .   tragic  .   old people are  ALWAYS  stuck in their old people ways  ,   i would know  .  ”    there’s a reason why she isn’t too involved with her family  .   her parents were okay  ,   but the older generations ?   lets just say  ,   thank  GOD  for growing up and moving out  .      “  it’s a fucking shit show  ,   is what it is  .   no god is worth killing over the loss of magic  ,   i’m  sure  we could have figured something out if quentin wasn’t so damn  IMPULSIVE  .  ”    though she’s sure she would have done the same  ,   if it weren’t julia  ,   but eliot instead  .   a shake of her head  .     “  not really  .   not to sound totally  cliché  ,   but the discipline are basically cliques  .   and we’re  basically  the coolest kids  .   we could mingle with the others  ,   the classes are mixed  ,   but  ...  quests keep us busy after the first few years anyways  .   we all  LIVE  in the same house  .  ”    a chuckle  ,   she’s amused but  ...  she must admit  ,   she  adores  when people bow  .   and he’s  CHARMING  ,   which adds to it  .     “  thank you  .   and maybe  ,   but our group has always been damn good at taking life by the balls and telling it to  fuck off  ,   even there are a few  ...  tragedies  along the line  .  ”    there was a lot of sacrifice  ,   but somehow you have to survive  .     “  do i ?  must be my inner nerd  ,   been hanging around quentin far too much  .   besides  ,   the books don’t include the  MUSICAL NUMBERS  fillory has put me through  .  ”

Eliot closes his eyes for a moment, allowing exhaustion to wash over him. “Yeah. Yeah, sounds perfect.” He’s not usually this quick to trust–at least, he doesn’t think he is–but he figures that if Margo wanted to harm him, she would’ve done it already. Without his memories, he’s as helpless as a kitten. “Do you think…maybe…you could tell me about my life?” 

         “  --  tell you about your life ?  ”    oh  ,   she could talk the ear off  ANYONE ELSE  about him  ,   but to eliot himself ?   she’s not so sure where to start  .   margo leads him to the hotel  ,    going straight for the bar  .     “  you’re a  FARM  boy  ,   though i may be the only person to know that  .   you’ve definitely got that  big-city-big-dick-energy  vibe going for you at all times  .   and uh  ,   we met at brakebills  .   a graduate school  .   for  magic  .  ”

      “maybe we could do a spread of it all. give us those three options. gotta say, i would not be opposed to drinks being MAGICALLY refilled. especially with this entire ordeal going on in this place.” words become all but lost by margo’s words, scrambling for a few seconds to think of something. “i – um. yeah?? i LIKE you too, margo.” already flustered, michael is quick to turn around at the gesturing, waiting to turn back once the okay has been given. as he turns around, gaze catching sight of margo, blue eyes widen. woah. okay that… yeah, he needed a distraction. “uh… food, yeah. food.” gaze shifts away again, focus on the spell at hand. conjuring wasn’t difficult for the warlock, a few moments passing before there was a spread of food on the table.

         “  that would  LITERALLY  be a dream come true  .   we’d make all the other rooms jealous  .   as for drinks ?  you bet  .   name a  COLOR  ,   lets make it more interesting  .  ”   a wink again  ,   she  loved  to play with colors  .   brow will raise  ,   she looks up from her spot on his bed  .   cute  .     “  well  ,   i’m glad the feeling’s  MUTUAL  then  .  ”    a hum lifts from her throat  ,   before she jumps up with a clap  .     “  GLASSES  .   you think you could ava-cadavra some for me ?  i’ll get the drinks going  .   exactly  what  level of drinking are we planning to get to tonight ?  ”     clearly  ,   she was  VERY  passionate about this  .

 alice’s smile grew as she tilted her head thoughtfully at bella’s words. “you are absoultely right,” she agreed with a chuckled stepping closer to the female, offering her her hand to hold, “let’s go shall we? i think yellow is your color today, now the question is a dress or should we combine it with a black skirt?”

        small grin  ,   if bella had a working heart  ,   it’d go faster  .     “  of course  .   i’m your  sister  ,   i know you just that well  .  ”    brows will crinkle  ,   she’s surely  NOT  the fashionista of the two of them  .     “  ...  maybe just  ,   whatever looks warmest ?  rosalie was warning me on blending in with the humans the other day  .  ”

“for some reason i doubt that, little half breed,” she smirked as she glanced at the mess the half witch has made before running her fingers over sabrina’s arm, “from what i know there’s no one who can make you do anything, or am i wrong?” prudence added as she met the other’s eyes.

         “  prudence  -  we’ve  TALKED  about that term  .   it’s degrading and rude  .  ”    arms will cross  ,   sabrina attempts to ignore the goosebumps that form under her sleeve  .     “  ---  it’s a  SOLID  coverup  .   mortals love their animals to the point they’d  believe  me  .  ”

  “this is crazy, things like that should not just be happening.” the red head said and looked around. “Are we even in the 2000′s anymore because it looks a little older to me”

         a lil’ smile  ,   she’ll shake her head  .     “  in this world ?  i think it’s fair to say  ANYTHING  could happen  .   i have some  ...  friends  saying that it’s the 20′s  .  ”

“hey get your own bottle, this one’s mine,” as he clutched onto his bottle of vodka before downing yet another sip from the bottle as the other stared at him. “though if you do, would you get me another one? i’m almost done with this one.”

        “  --  i’m sorry  ,   i’m afraid i  cannot  get you another one if there’s no sharing involved  .   and if  i  drink  ,   i’m going to need some glasses of water as a follow up  .  ”    hazel eyes cast on him  ,   she unfazed  -  after all  ,   maggie worked in a  FREAKSHOW  for a small portion of her ultimately  PATHETIC  life  ,   she could handle  one  drunk  .    “  so what’s it gonna be ?  ”

“you don’t sound too concerned about it.” it’s not even a criticism, really, just an observation. buffy isn’t freaking out either, but her threshold for what’s worthy of freaking over is, like, scary high. “things could be worse, i guess, but there’s a lot of people who are important to me that i’m pretty sure are not in this dome with me.” at least when it comes to slaying, she’s fine on her own. “being around kids always makes me think about when i was little. it already feels like forever ago.”

         “  of course i’m concerned  .   but i must stay composed  .  ”    oddly enough  ,   it comes so much  EASIER  to her than feeling emotion  .   these days  ,   esme struggles with even bringing herself to cry  .    “  yeah  ,   well  ,   my entire life is here  .  ”    even that  ,   oddly feels like a lie to the brunette  .   she supposes she has to do some  soul  searching  .     “  it just wants me make some of my own  ,   constantly  .  ”    sometimes it’s hard  ,   when she knows she can’t  ,

all she can do is blink in confusion. “put my wand…away?” yes, star is a strong and capable princess (sometimes queen), who in theory can live without her wand for a little while, but it feels unnatural. “i have to keep an eye on my wand at all times. i can’t risk it falling into the wrong hands.” nobody out to get her seems to be in this city, but you can never be too careful! “really? huh. i’m not used to other people having magic, too.”

         okay  ,   she gets it  .   she wouldn’t just leave her earrings anywhere !    “  ...  does it work on  EVERYBODY ?   isn’t there someone you can trust with it ?  ”    like  ,   marinette would trust the master  -  or cat noir !     “  you could hide it really  ,   really well  .  ”   a nod  ,   blue eyes cast on the blonde  .    “  it’s weird  -  you should talk to them !   maybe all of you could work together  .  ”

“i think this conversation is about all the exploding kitten talk i can handle. but thanks for the offer.” buffy, begrudging, can admit that she’s a bit of a ranter herself. that doesn’t mean willow and xander don’t do their fair share of ranting, though. basically, she’s all set. “you act as if we’re all bathing in streams.” her hotel room shower head isn’t the most impressive, but if it rinses off dirt and blood, she’s satisfied. after a beat, buffy carefully runs her fingers through the kitten’s fur, searching for fleas. “looks clean to me.” for an animal that indulges in tongue baths, anyways.

        “  you sure ?  i can go into  detail  ,   describe how it hit my friends’ clothes  ,   and how fuckin’  STUNNED  julia looked for two hot seconds  .  ”    not that it’s not the usual for her  ,   she’s gotten some unfortunate blood spatters on her  -  even on her wedding day !   sigh  ,   what a life for the high king  .     “  might as well with how shitty the plumbing is  .  ”    hell  ,   even  fillory  had better means  .   but they also had magic everywhere  ,   so  .     “  --  i’ll take your word for it  .  ”
