After calming himself down a second time (he'd calmed himself down, then became upset at how mad he'd gotten over dominoes) Reaper slid himself off of the couch and stood again. Bored.
He paused a moment, glanced back up the stairs, back at the couch, and back at the stairs. Well...there was nothing else to do. He wasn't sure exactly where the room was, but he should find something again. With that, he slid into his shadow again, and reappeared in a hallway where he thought the dominoes might be.
After a while of searching, he found various empty rooms, magical stuff, coats, a closet that looked like it might lead to Narnia, fishing gear...for whatever reason, a mess of board games that of course were in chinese or something that he couldn't understand, ...place was a freaking random house.
Finally, he came upon a small box of game dominoes. White ones with different colored dots, and seemed to be made of ceramics of some kind. Suppose this was one where you matched ends by color or number. Well, he had no one else to play with, and as long as he kept it on carpet or something, it should be fine.
With that, he went back down to his couch. Better than nothing.

After a minute or two, Strange poked his head back out. "Oh. You can leave, by the way," he said evenly, "X far too busy to mess with you."

Reaper had gotten half of his new dominoes set up when Strange addressed him again. He suddenly dropped the dominoe in his hand, setting the rest of them off. He then turned towards the door and stared for a minute. "He...what?"

"He's too busy," Strange repeated patiently, "To mess with you. Trust me; you're the absolute last thing on his mind right now." He raised his eyebrows, looking at the dominoes. "Of course... you're welcome to stay, as well." Obviously trying not to smile, he retreated into his study and shut the door once again.

Reaper grimmaced a moment, then grumbled something to himself as he put the dominoes away. It would be really...really nice to get out of this house. If nothing else, just to get some fresh air. Honestly, he wasn't sure what all else there was to get into. See if the stone made any of the Supers bleed perhaps, but he wasn't exactly in a hurry to rush off and find either of them. So, what else would there be to get into?
After pausing a moment, he shrugged and set the dominoes on the table by the couch. Eh, he'd wing it. Go with whatever happens. He just needed some air.
With that, he headed for the door and walked out.
EXIT Reaper to New York City

[enter the Phantom Stranger from unknown]
Without any kind of warning, the Phantom Stranger was suddenly standing in front of Doctor Strange's desk. "Interesting. This room is not as well protected as your bedroom."

"It's made to allow for visitors," Strange replied amiably, not immediately looking up from his paperwork. He scribbled for a few more seconds, then the parchment rolled up of its own accord and vanished. Strange got to his feet, his expression politely expectant. " Can I be of some assistance?"

"Your manservant was supposed to inform you of my earlier visit," the Stranger said.

"He didn't have to," Strange said patiently, "My question was geared toward gaining information concerning specifics. Exactly what do you have in mind? If you don't mind my saying so, it seems like the Wrath of God has everything pretty well in hand." Which didn't mean that he didn't intend to keep an eye on things. He did. Especially because the Wrath of God was involved.

"There will come a time when the Spectre will not 'have everything well in hand', as you phrased it. I suspect you already know this. I'm going to need your help when that time arrives."

"You will have it," Strange replied with a slight nod.

"I left a card with your manservant, Wong. When that time comes, follow its directions. It will lead you to a place that is owned by a few people I also trust with this mission."

Strange flipped his hand, and was suddenly holding the card. Funnily enough, that was actually just slight of hand; everybody had to have hobbies. He smiled slightly. "I'll be there."
