*Maggie takes Luana's hand, accustomed now to this manner of greeting, though she curtsies as well* Ye need'na apologize - 'tis quite a lot te adjust te, coming here. My name is Margaret Dowling, or Maggie, if ye'd rather.

Maggie it is then. I'll have to try to remember that. It's nice to meet you again. *she grins and releases Maggie's hand*
*Maggie... I've heard that name before... Luke mentioned her... Maggie and Cora... Seraphim... Best not to ask, I think.*
So, Maggie, how are you doing?

Somewhat new, yes. Still getting used to the place, getting to know people, trying to learn what I can about it.
*She breaks eye contact and glances around briefly, as if to be sure that it hasn't changed while she was gone, and then sets the clipboard down on a table and lays the pencil on top of it.*
I'm kind of glad this place exists, for the moment. My house is really crazy right now. *sits in a chair near her clipboard*
What about you? How long have you been coming to the Brink?

Aye . . . it can be a welcome reprieve . . . at times
*Maggie tilts her head to glance down at the clipboard for a moment, then back up at Luana at her question*
Oh heavens, quite a while. . *she pauses to recall* Nearly two years now, I believe . . . though I did go several months without appearing here, some time back.

Months? Wow. I don't think I've ever gone more than two weeks between visits. But then again, I haven't been coming here that long.
*She looks over Maggie's attire before continuing.* I'm from 2007. What about you?

Year of our Lord fifteen hundred and sixty-eight. *Maggie replies* So far as I know, I am from the earliest time, here.

Really? That's certainly the earliest I've heard of so far. *gets up and goes to the bar* Can I get you anything while I'm over here?

*Maggie shakes her head at the offer* Nay, I thank ye.
*She casts another glance at the clipboard, but she doesn't want to try and read it without Luana's permission, so she motions to it, asking* Are ye working on writing something, there?

Malazar wanders back out into the main room with wet hair. He has that "fresh out of the shower" look.
"Evenin' ladies,"
He nods cordially and heads for the bar.

*Luana pours herself an apple juice.* Usually it's for on-location projects and things, but today it's a check list.
*Returning to the table, she spins the clipboard around so that Maggie can read it if she wants to.* My parents told me that if we were doing the Masquerade again this year, I had to organize it. It starts tomorrow night, and I want to make sure I don't forget anything.
*She takes a drink of her juice then continues.* Understandable, I guess. The first one was the twins' 12th birthday party, and neither of them has actually lived with us for... *Has it really been that long?* over a decade.
*She sees a man she doesn't recognize.* Oh, hello there!

*Maggie listens to Luana's explanation, though it's hard to follow without knowing what and who she's referencing* Masquerade? *she echoes* So ye're . . . arranging a ball, of sorts? *she studies the clipboard as Luana turns it towards her, murmering some of the letters to herself, her brow furrowing as she struggles to pick the words out*
*Maggie pauses and looks up at the sound of another voice, nodding her head in return* Greetings te ye, Sir Malazar. 'Tis been some time since I've seen ye . .. I hope ye've been well?

"Well indeed lassy, well indeed. Work has been fruitful of late. How are ye? And who might this slip of a girl be?"
Mal pours himself a glass of water as he speaks.
