I heard this was a good way to meet people.

[ithehellamharry]

Huh, well for whatever reason it looks like this thing isn't going to fizz out on me anytime soon. I guess I might as well try to use it. Squall said this was a good way to communicate with people at least

New to the city, then? I might be able to help you get your bearings. What do you need to know?

[ithehellamharry]

Fairly new I'd say. Right now I just need a place to stay.

[11deadlypetals]

There are a string of hotels by the name of Actua Are around the island. The owners still demand payment, like any good business would, but thankfully the price is quite easy to pay.

[ithehellamharry]

Huh, sounds like that's within my current price range. Thanks for the help Mr?

You'd be correct in that assumption seeing as I, myself, work frequently in the realm of magic and the...strange.

What sort of shop are you looking to set up, Mr. Dresden, hm?

Normally I'm pretty good with dimensional travel however this world seems to be...fairly 'special' in that regard.

[ithehellamharry]

How do you lock this damn thing? Oh wait, here we go

Magic and the strange do seem to go together. Can you cast magic, or do you just have knowledge in that area?

Well, I'm more of a freelance magical trouble shooter/private investigator. The shop would be more of a convenient address to put on business cards no one would read.

Really? I usually stick to the two back home, but it sounds like where you come from, there's a lot more. still not sure this isn't the Nevernever. That's pretty impressive.

Why is it whenever anyone tells me something is 'special' they never mean the good kind. Just once I'd like into something that's just special, without the air quotes.

Well, they don't call me a witch for nothing Mr. Dresden but I am also quite knowledgeable in the area despite my powers, after all one can obviously possess one and not the other.

Oh good...hmm well I suppose some would say we provide similar services though I'm no solver of mysteries but people often come to me when they have trouble...

There are many worlds out there Mr. Dresden...though I'm actually surprised you already know of two...let me guess one is more related to the magical side of things and the other is what we would call the 'human world' correct? That division seems to be made a lot actually in my experience.

Perhaps because the good kind of special is so very rare ^_^

Re: Private to Harry

[ithehellamharry]

Ah, see back were I come from, we just call them female wizards. It's much more PC. Still you make a very good point. There are those who have knowledge without power, and far too many who have power without knowledge.

So, what kind of business do you run Miss?

I suppose that shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. I mean, there's also Heaven and Hell, and the Outer Reaches, on top of Earth and the Nevernever, but two are theoretical, and one is less a world and more a HP Lovecraft story on steroids. Still, that does change a lot about how I knew the universe worked.

Well, they are largely correspond to that division, although the Nevernever is more a spiritual realm, and there are a lot of supernatural creatures that are either native to Earth, or have become native to Earth over the centuries. So, like all things, it boils down to it is complicated.

Yes. It really is. Plus it usually has a horrible fanged catch.

I know a blond woman... but... she's not cute...

[ithehellamharry]

Ah, well then she's probably not mine. Murphy claims she isn't cute, but that's just a classic case of denial.

Still, thank you for your help. What's your name if you don't mind me asking?

[theansweris4]

There ain't a way out, yo. Or not one that we've found. Heard tell about people leaving, but they didn't seem t' tell anyone how before they left.

[ithehellamharry]

Well, that's just rude of them. Thanks for the info though. If I find a way out I'll make sure to leave a note.

[theansweris4]

No problem, yo.

[vagrant_feline]

Oh, a wizard? Wizard, wavemaster, wizard... hm~ hm~ seems close enough, a bit of the same, that pinch of magic!

...that pink-haired one. The Morganna one. Oh no, be weary of him, he gives a poor feeling, an empty feeling! Bit much like myself, perhaps, perhaps~ Although I use to be of Morganna, so it would make some sense. Perhaps!

So many shops as of late! Makes me curious, yes. Maybe I will sniff out one of these shops, a day, one day...

[ithehellamharry]

I think I got most of that. Thanks for the advice, I'll keep it in mind.

Mind if I ask the name of my benefactor?
