What have you been up to, Maggie? Have you been thinking about what I said earlier? About practicing your abilities?

*Luke does a double-take as he watches Maggie materialize into the room. He swerves around, disoriented, making sure that no one else has appeared without him knowing.*
No, I'm not thristy. *He looks at Tavin as if to say 'how could you ask a question like THAT at a time like THIS.*

*Tavin nods to Luke, obliviously*
Some pretzels perhaps? I can cook you up something, but it might take some time.
*Tavin looks over at Maggie*
I'm glad to hear it. I wasn't kidding when I said that I know that you have the potential within you.

*He goes back and forth, from Maggie greeting him to Tavin and Maggie exchanging words in a perfectly normal fashion, as if not a thing were out of place in the world.*
*His voice raises.*
Would someone like to tell me what the ******** is going on around here?

*Tavin frowns a bit and mutters under his breath*
I guess he doesn't want anything to eat either......
*Tavin reaches out a hand to Luke*
Its been a while since an introduction was needed. Forgive me for being rude... My name is Tavin, and THIS is the Brink of Time. At least... that's what I call it. It an area that exists beyond the borders of time and space, apparently. None of us here really have much control over when we are brought or when we leave, but we try to.. have a good time while we're here.....
*Tavin takes a deep breath, hoping that his words helped to clarify the situation*

*Luke looks at Tavin's hand, doesn't shake it.* *It's clear that he does not like what he's hearing.*
*He squints.* Are you trying to be funny about this? Because I really wouldn't appreciate lines of bullshit right now.

*Tavin sighs and frowns* Hmmm... I don't find much funny about this either, frankly. There's a LOT going on that you wouldn't know about, I'm afraid. Everyone here is in danger. A rogue angel, The Seraphim, wants this place quite badly, I'm afraid.

*Luke listens to Maggie talk, more focusing on her accent than the words she's saying. He opens his mouth, but makes no response to her.*
*He darts his eyes back to Tavin, hearing him go on about danger and did he hear a 'seraphim' in there? He suddenly shakes his head and hands at the same time.*
Look, I didn't fall down a ********' rabbit hole, and I wasn't born ********' yesterday. *He points to Tavin, still holding the mal-functioning cell phone in his hand.* All I want to know is why the HELL I was walking down the street, minding my own business, talking on my cell phone, when I was blinked out of existence?! *starts to freak out* What the ******** is going on around here?!

*Tavin shakes his head*
I guess I have to show you, then. Tell me. Are you having an issue with your phone?
*Tavin holds up Luke's cell, now in Tavin's hand*

Yeah, apparently there's no reception in limbo-
*Luke watches the phone disappear* WHAT THE ******** appears in Tavin's hand.* *Luke's face holds fear, then only anger.* How did you do that....

((Actually, it wasn't taken from Luke. It just isn't there. Spatial readjustment within the Brink is one of the easier powers to learn))
Perhaps you would like a new one?
*Tavin points to the brand new cell phone (different make and model) now in Luke's hand*
You see, I'm really NOT joking. The Brink is what it is, and we are who we are.
