:::Cora sits down in the chair next to Maggie's and puts her hands over hers:::
Maggie, I've been meaning to ask you for something. I'll understand if it isn't the best time... but if you could... :::Her cheaks flushed a bit, though she didn't realize it::: Do you think you could bring a mirror into the Brink for me?

A mirror? *Maggie echoes, and then nods* Aye, I could likely manage a small one.
*she closes her eyes, her brow furrowing in concentration. After a moment, she pulls her hands away from Cora's to hold them up as a small hand mirror appears in them. She opens her eyes again* There now . . *and hands it to her*

*Alex looks up from behind the bar*
Oh wow... That is a cool trick..
*Alex pulls out a carton of juice*
Apple or Orange, Maggie?

Oh! Maggie...! Thank you SO much. :::She eyes the mirror and runs her hands over it's handle and the sides. It was heavy as far as hand mirrors go, but Cora wouldn't have known. It was fashioned out of soft pewter metal, an alloy that Cora had never witnessed. Only when she stopped to look into the mirror itself did she look surprised.
Oh... goodness... Heh. I haven't seen my reflection in months.

*Alex walks back with a tall glass of apple juice and two glasses of wine. He hands out the drinks*
Cora, this should taste familiar. Maggie, here you go.

*Maggie tilts her head to look at her* Yer hair's been growing quite a bit. Ye always wore it short, before.
*then turns to thank Alex again as he hands her the glass of juice*

Mmm... yes, I've been using it to measure how long I've been here. Just over 6 months now.
::She smiles as Alex hands her the wine:::
Aw...
:::it was the apple wine Alex served her during their dinner date, she flushes:::
Thank you, Alex.

*Alex sipped his wine and sat down*
Well, I for one like your hair longer.. It makes you look... I don't know... More feminine, I guess *he tells her, but then fades out as the words leave his mouth*

*Maggie looks between them, unsure what to make of their interaction, but then Alex is gone* Oh . . . farewell, Alex.
*She turns her attention back to Cora* . . . Six months, ye said? Heavens, 'tis quite some time . . . are ye doing alright, here?

Oh yes! I've been keeping myself busy with reading and practicing my own ability here. You know, I'm thinking of organizing that library. It has no indexing system, which is proving to be a serious inconvinience. And really, what else is there to do? :::She smirks:::
:::turning to alex::: Do women in your time grow it long...? Oh..! :::She saw him fade, and couln't stop herself from a frown coming on:::
:::She pushed a tress out of her face and paused for a moment before adding quietly and smirking softly, as though trying to lighten her own mood:::
I don't know how they can do anything with it getting in the way so often...

Would ye like me te braid yers back from off yer face for ye? *she offers*

*Maggie stands and walks over to stand behind Cora's chair* Shall I show ye?
*At Cora's nod, Maggie lifts her hands to Cora's hair. She carefully combs her fingers through it first to make certain there are no tangles, then, pulling her hair back gently, starts braiding it*
