*Luke shrugs.* Just History Class in High School. We learned about all the colonies...the settlements.... Christopher Columbus. Nina, Pinta, Santa Maria.
*He stops....aware that he's rambling.*
But hey. It's probably front page news where you're from.

:::She laughs at Lukes remark...she has NO idea what he means...He must mean the halloween costume:::
Hehe...no I uh, removed it. The clothing is folded on your bed.
:::Cora looks over at the bar, and at all the wine buuuuut...decides against it. She just got finished feeling...rather strange:::
How is everyone feeling now...since last I saw you. It was just hours for me, who knows how long for the both of you.

*listens to Luke, looking more lost than anything else by what he says, and admits matter-of-factly* I've not been schooled, so I daresay there may be things ye know of my time that I dinna know.

*to Maggie's reply* Well, you know... *He's not sure what to say, so he shrugs.* School's overrated.
*nods to Cora* Been about a week. *runs his hands through his bedraggled hair* *looks around* Seems like every time I turn around, I'm in here.

MM... Yes...even since I've been coming here, I have noticed the presences in the brink grow more numerous, more often... Perhaps the Brink has something to do for us?

*to Cora* 'Tis been a few days, but I'm well, I thank ye.
*turns back to Luke, thoughtful* Is it? I ne'er thought much of schooling one way or another before I came te this place. Now, I admit, I rather wish I could try it.

I wouldn't call school overated... the people of my time are masters at school. Every one, from the age of 4 begins schooling. It is a very strict process that proves essential to life. We are finished with school at age 18, and that is when we chose, or are placed into the macroeconomical loop.
:::she wonders if this makes sense to either of them:::

*seems a bit confused by Cora's description, not liking the sound of much of what she's heard about her time, but refrains from saying anything*

*Luke focuses on Maggie... he frowns a little to himself.* *He's never been denied education, nor known many who were. Certainly not anyone with two brain cells to rub together.* *He wasn't sure what to say to her. Women in her time period generally weren't educated, unless they worn gold-plated dresses everyday.* *so he tries a question* Have you ever asked to learn?
*to Cora* *echoes her* Something to do for us? *He sends her a smirk.* What? The Brink's a living, breathing entity now?

*It makes sense to Luke.* Yeah. It's basically the same for me. As long as you have the dollars to keep paying. *murmurrs* Highway Robbery...
