*Luke flips back to the front and right before the first chapter, there is a page that reads: "For the real Maggie, who may yet read this in time"*
*Luke stares at it for a good while.*
Well. No. s**t.
*After that, he flips to the back again, to see the author blurb.* Do you have a picture in the back? *He finds it. The picture looks very much like Bard... in drag.*
*Luke shudders and quickly shuts the book.* Aw, man....*looks to Bard, half-grin back in place.* Blasphemy, man.

Janani shoots up from her "bent half over the bar" postition when Luke speaks of blasphemy. She looks around, eyes wide, like she's ready to fight. She looks half-afraid, too.
Who?! What?! Where?!

*Bard shrugs* I lost a bet.
*Bard sighs* I don't know that I'd call it artistry, but it's a living.

*Luke jumps a little at Janani's outburst.* Whoa, whoa. *to Bard* I mean, it's not THAT bad. There's just some things you can't unsee.
*Luke shrugs at Bard's comment. He flips through the book.* Are you kidding? Even -I've- seen this book. It's on the nightstand of almost every girl I knew in high school.

Was her fright uncalled for? Janani looks back and forth between Bard and Luke as she begins to fade out. She doesn't realize it in time to say good-bye.

*Bard smirks. He motions to the Jaguar* Those parts won't buy themselves eh?

*Luke grins, looking over at the Jag.* Yeah, right... *Still looking through the book.* By the way, the fan belt's done, too. I saw that last time I checked it out.

*Bard nods* I'll take care of it when I can.. I can't do anything while I'm in Oregon. Maybe... after...
*he shakes his head* Maybe when my mom's bette--
*He fades, the glass slipping from his hand and landing on the counter of the bar*
** Exit Bard **

*Luke smiles a little.* See ya, man...
*As he looks through the book, he snickers. Bard may not know it yet, but he's just given Lucas Blaize enough material for at least the next ten years to come....*

Malazar fades into The Brink with a towel around his shoulders. He's possessing a statisfied grin and using an end of the towel to mop at his forehead. He's in a sweat, wearing a dark blue tanktop and matching shorts, gym clothes; from the looks of things he'd been working out for a while.
Mal settles the towel around his neck and heads for his room.

**Enter Maggie**
*Maggie flickers in, glancing around when she realizes she's in the Brink. She checks first the library, then the key rack, but finds no sign of anybody else. Taking a seat at one of the tables, she folds her arms on top of it and rests her chin on them, her eyes distant and a little sad*

**Enter Luana**
*Luana fades in with a clipboard under her arm and a pencil behind her ear. She gestures with a wave of her hand.* No no, over there- oh. *She realizes that she's no longer at home, but in the Brink. Her hand drops back down to her side.* I guess it can wait then.
*She looks around and notices Maggie at one of the tables. If memory serves her correctly, they had met once before, though Luana could not put a name to the face. She smiles anyway.*
Hello there!

*Maggie lifts her head at the sound of Luana's voice, pulling herself out of her reverie and rising to greet her* Oh, good day te ye! *she summons up a smile in return* 'Tis Luana, is it not?

That's me alright. *She shifts the clipboard to her left arm and offers her hand to Maggie.* But I'm sorry to say I can't recall your name, Miss.
