Tac was relieved inside, until the damn thing started to hurt, "Well....that...hurts. How...how is it that the Brink halts this healing, and magic in general whilst we visit? I don't rely on it as much as I used to. Gets me out of waiting in line for an elevator quite nicely, other than that theres not much use anymore. Though I will admit, being forced to exist without it at all is rather odd. Even now I am only first realizing a few subtler things that were missing." He shook his head, "Nevermind the questions, it doesn't matter anyway. So, while we're tending my wounds, why don't you tell me a bit more about yourself. Everyone has a story, some moreso than others. I mean, you seem to be well versed with the intricacies of this place, so you must have seen more than just me and the drunk come 'round these parts."

:::She lifted up his sleeve to get a good shot of a bigger muscle like his biscep. As far as she was concerned, he'd given concent to treat him:::

This will sting for just a moment, and then the pain will be gone. :::She pulled the trigger of the administrator before she finished the 'n' sound in 'gone'. She began to get some other things:::

Yes... there are many others who appear here. Some of them very strange, but most of them friendly... Who else have you met?

:::She was too busy to talk about herself at the moment:::

Tac twitched at the sting, "I had almost forgotten, there was that wierd Angel like female from last time, its been so long I almsot forgot. I can certainly understand what you mean by strange, but whats this you say about most of them being friendly?"

:::She manages an introverted smile while she grabbed some cellular regenerative and a skin patch:::

The others here, some of them are my family, they're all my very good friends here. You will meet them I'm sure...

:::She put the medication on the cut:::

As she and the medication worked their magic Tac tried to poke a bit more at her, testing if it was really her, "So, you haven't told me much about yourself yet. We already know I frequently cut myself and dislike elevators, but know oh so little about yourself, much less these others you speak of."

:::She finished bandaging up his arm:::

That will fall off on its own when your skin is healed properly.

:::Then she motioned to come sit at the bar:::

Well...you know my name...Cora Serenis...but the full name is Lieutenant Cora Serenis from the house of El... I'm a police officer where I was from...which, by the looks of you, I come from very far in the future.

As he sat down at the bar he flexed his hand slightly, glancing at it, "Well, how far exactly would that be? I'm from the year two thousand four....teen. Heh, seems a bit odd saying it like that. Never imagined I'd be chatting it up with people from the future. Also, what do you mean where you were from?"
PostPosted: Tue Jul 19, 2005 10:24 pm


Hm...? Oh! :::She smirked to herself::: I didn't even notice that I said that. It's just that... I consider THIS place my home now.

:::that, and I have not been back to my world in months...:::

I'm from the year 3126 by your calendar.... I... I wouldn't care if I never went back, to be honest.

:::With that, she got up and began to move behind the bar as though she was getting drinks:::

Tac nodded, "Yeah, I guess I can understand what thats like. I spent a very long time away from my home, after that time I have to confess, I both feared and hoped I'd never return. It was different...so different. I was convinced she was gone, and when I returned, I thought I found her, but I darenot approach her as she knows me, it..might not be her." He looked up abruptly as if shaking a dream fromhis mind, "Hmm...oh...was I rambling again? Bah, nevermind it, its not important here. So, in relation to your world, how long has it been since you started coming to the Brink?"

((He's talking about Jordan's sister, mostly. Theres a little bit of both actually.))

...:::There was a sad expression on her face as he went on about someone dear to him that he'd lost, but he moved on, and asked her an intriguing question:::

started coming back... how...did you know that I had stopped coming here?

Tac looked at her confused, "I said nothing about coming back, I asked when you first started coming to the Brink? Why, did you stop for a period of time?"
PostPosted: Tue Jul 19, 2005 10:43 pm


Oh...hm...

:::She felt like she was going out of her head. She swore she heard him say... Cora shook her head:::

Yes, I was stuck in my world for over two years...I nearly went mad. I think, I started coming to the brink when I was 23 years of age...I am 26 now. Those two and a half years...

:::She shuddered::: They are lost years of my life...

:::and she didn't want to talk about it anymore:::

What is it like where you're from?

He stopped for a moment, staring down at the bar, "Two years? How? Why? Thats...not possible." He looked up to her, a twinge of either fear or sadness in his eyes, "Two years?"

:::She heard his mumbles and looked at him curiously...it sounded like he know what he was talking about for a moment, but she dismissed it quickly:::

2.63 years actually... others don't understand it very well, but I no longer feel welcome in my own time and place. It's a terrible world. I lived in it for so long only through blindness...ignorance perhaps.

:::She shook it off::: But I'm here now... I'm happy here.

:::Cora finally grabbed a bottle of wine, and two glasses, though abscent mindedly. She didn't even ask Jordan if he did indeed want any:::

I hope, Mr. Daize, that you feel welcome both in your time and in the Brink. I'll do my best to see to it while you are here.

He kept mumbling it to himself, it couldn't have been two years. He could only barely remember some parts of the last time he saw her. It had been only a short time since then, not even a year. He. couldn't keep things straight anymore. He wasn't forgetting anymore, but Jordan's memories were clouding his own. He couldn't even remember who was who between Steph and Ren. He held only fond memories and deep pain for the both of them, the lines between them blurring.

He shook his head, "That...seems so long. Your world seems so horrible by how you speak of it. I can't even begin to imagine, and I don't even know if I want to." His mind returned to less than depressing thoughts, the true matter at hand, "So Miss Cora, there was to be more about you than just your name, rank, and age."
