Cora . . . ye have nothing te apologize for. 'Tis natural te feel overwhelmed by things at times.
*she glances over as Luke calls to her* Oh, good day te ye Luke. If I might just have some water, please?

:::Cora faces the bar and sticks out her elbow to Maggie:::
Will you need my arm to help you walk over?

*Maggie's feeling stronger, but, seeing the look on Cora's face, she smiles a bit and laces her arm through hers* Thank ye, Cora . . .
*she moves over towards the bar with her, frowning thoughtfully at Luke's question* I . . . dinna know what 'tis called, exactly. *talking about it, she looks a bit sad* I went with Bard te visit his time . .. but, there are 'germs' there, that dinna exist in my time . . .
*but she's quick to shrug off the sad expression, not wanting to dwell on what can't be changed* I'm much improved now, though, thanks te Cora and Bard and Tavin's care.

:::Cora makes sure Maggie is comfortably seated before she lets her go:::
It is called enfluenza, Maggie. We are so very lucky to have had the resources, not to mention Bard entering of his own will. That is exciting. :::She'd barely had time to give it a thought, but this was perhaps good news for her:::

*Luke latches on to how Maggie returns to Bard's time...*
*He looks at the Jag.*
That explains the car.
*quick sigh* Well, that's one mystery solved...

*Maggie nods thoughtfully at Cora's comment* Aye, he told me Tavin had taught him how . . . I daresay there's still a great deal te be learned about this place, and what sort of powers we all may have o'er it, but the more we know how te do, the better. . .

*Luke's face turns grave. He leans close against the bar.* So Tavin's the one in charge of this place?

:::Cora looked over at Luke, surpised:::
Luke, I could have sworn that you have been coming here for longer than I have. You do not yet know that the Captain is...well, the Captain? Surely you must have heard me call refer to him as that.

In charge? *Maggie contemplates that* I dinna know that he's in charge, exactly . . . Howe'er he does seem te have a great deal of power o'er this place. He certainly knows more about it than any o'us. . .

*Looks to Cora... She has a point. Thinks about it, and says* Yeah, and I call you Slim Shady. But that doesn't mean you're a ghetto rap star...
*He turns to Maggie.* Yeah? Then why is this Seraphim guy so hard up on him and knockin' us down like dominos?

:::Cora braves some painful memories about her encounter with the Seraphim in hope of making sense of it:::
As I recall, the Seraphim is convinced that the Captain is some murderous monster who is using us as the ends to his means...he says he's trying to return the brink into the right hands...I assume he means his own.

*Maggie flinches visibly at the mention of the name, listening to Cora in growing concern*
He said . . .? Ye've encountered him yerself, then? *she clenches her fists, her expression a mix of fear and anger* Has he started coming back here again?

*Luke responds angrily.*
Yeah, he nearly ******** killed me.... I had to wake up in my room down the hall before I could figure out what happened. *He points to Cora.* She met him, too.
*Luke blinks.* And what do you mean back here again? How long has this been going on?

:::Cora thinks about it::: You see, I did not meet him here. He brought me out of the Brink, spoke to me (She used the term 'spoke' lightly), and then threw me back. I did not think of it at first, but I think by doing so he strained himself. He was vomiting when he first brought me away from here:::
:::She's also curious to here the answer to Luke's question, the way Maggie spoke, it seemed that it'd been quite some time:::
Maggie, I take it you have encountered him before... how long has he been a threat here?
