---

Michael Hannigan has posed:
After the discussion with Chas regarding a certain Pixie, Mike's current supernatural employer, and theoretical discussions of what the VR library can produce, it is time to head back. Being that the causing factor of his trip was of utmost importance to him, Mike wasn't quite that selective with where he left from. So this is why the front door of Thomas's house opens, showing the walls of an incredibly blue room. In his hands is a folder. The musician steps out and immediately closes the door behind him. After a second, he turns around and knocks on the same door.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn has spent the past night at the Blake house, and now that she's been supplied with a change of clothes, she has less reason to return to her tiny lonely dorm. Plus Thomas probably wanted to keep an eye on her. With the promise of cute outfits.

Oh, and a pink tiger striped cat suit. She skips towards door, in a somewhat cheerful mood to greet Mike with a smile. "Hiii Mike! How's it going?" she asks in a singsong voice.

She glances towards the sleeping form of Thomas and..Jumps on him. Like she's a cat or something. "Wake uuuup! Mikes here!" she calls.

Oh dear, too much sugar.

Thomas Blake has posed:
Thomas Blake oofs! "Hey! What the! Get... " He gets up and grabs Tiger Fairy around the waist, tucks her under one arm and walks to the kitchen." At least she can see where he's taking her. He sets her on the counter and wags a finger under her nose. "You're lucky you're cute." He thinks better and pulls his finger back fast. "Hello Mike. What news from the group I know nothing thereof?" He leans on the counter next to Megan on his elbows, giving her an appreciative stare. Cute indeed.

Michael Hannigan has posed:
Mike pauses to look to the new outfit which is most decidedly not borrowed clothing. "I didn't think I was gone long enough to merit those questions..." The musician comments, pulling out his phone to check the time. "But-"

Either way, probably better not to stand in the doorway.

Mike steps inside, allowing for the door to close, watching as Pixie opts not to let sleeping tigers (lions?) lie. Watching the exchange, he follows the pair into the kitchen. Taking a seat at the counter with the folder set in front of him. He sighs, folding his hands on top of the folder. "Well, for starters I've been given homework."

WILL THE EXCITEMENT END?!

He looks over to Pixie, "I spoke with one of the heads and, there is understandably concern for you." He glances to Thomas, "And by length of contact, you."

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn meeps as she gets picked up, quickly wriggling out of his grasp as she sits in the counter. "Silky! I'm just glad to be back!" she glances at Mike, "Ooh, has it really only been a few hours? Feels like several days. I feel like I was out for a long time.." when the conversation seems to take a more serious turn her smile fades completely.

"Wait, what do you mean? I mean.." she glances between the two of them wuth a soft frown, "Didn't your spell work? I feel better! honest. I mean, I didn't have a nightmare last night..Well, it started to creep up on me but your spell helped keep it at bay.."

Thomas Blake has posed:
Thomas Blake gets some coffee for himself and puts a cocoa k-cup in the coffeemaker. "What is it with you and paper work? Thanks the heads for their concern. I do all right looking out for myself, but I'll do whatever is needed for the brat cat over there. You want coffee, tea or cocoa?" He looks a little guilty at Pixie, "I kind of was pulling your tail telling you you rested for two whole days. Sorry. I thought it'd make you really feel rested. She's right about no nightmares. I stayed up watching her. I noticed she got all twitchy and rubbed her back till it stopped." Cocoa done he hands it to Megan. "Here you go evuul tiger fairy." He waits for Mike's request.

Michael Hannigan has posed:
"Relax," Mike assures. "The paperwork's for me." He brings a hand up, rubbing his temple. "Could I get a coffee, please?" He asks Thomas before setting the hand back down. "And that concern is probably what's going to give me the leeway to give you more info than they'd probably normally give." He pauses, "Well probably would have told you anyways but- Either way."

He pauses, gathering his thoughts. "So, first up, let me give the basic warning I was given. We're up against reality bending gods, not demons. Punching them will likely result in your hand just being unmade." Mike's brows lift up, giving a forced smile, "And on that happy note..." He looks to Pixie, "A meet up with you is requested. Off-site. I've asked that we be there with you. We should at least be able to get me in on the meeting."

Mike looks to Thomas, "I have pointed out that having you in on the meeting could help with getting you a clear understanding of what's going on here."

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn sighs and quietly sips her cocoa for a moment or two. Thomas probably knows by now that she likes extra Milk and sugar and those cute mini marshmallows in her drink. At least she takes the time to sip it and not simply burn her tongue like every other time..

Glancing at Mike, she frowns a bit more. "Heh, I remember that way weird meeting the other day. Sooo ancient powerful gods huh, but..I doubt they'd be able to cause much damage with little old me, compared to all the heavy hitters out there. Besides, maybe your spell worked and chased em away? I mean..I feel fine, really?"

She glances towards Thomas, shoulders slumping. "..Does this mean we won't get to go on that African safari now..?"

Thomas Blake has posed:
Thomas Blake puts his arm around Megan and lets her lean on him. "We'll see, what these heads say. When I say I'll do what is right for you, that means you decide whether you want me with you when you meet or not, or whether we go to Africa and lay low. Here, baby." He pulls a bag of her favorite rainbow marshmallows out of a drawer. Then he hands her a napkin.

Michael Hannigan has posed:
Mike blinks, looking over to Pixie and then to Thomas, "Safari?...I'd probably postpone that until we're sure you guys are safe from this. Or maybe bring it up at the meeting. At the very least give me time to help you learn that portion of Raphael's Flask so you can invoke that on yourself when you need it. I can't keep reusing that spell every time it wears off. There's a cost in using it on others."

Mike scratches his forehead, glancing down to the closed folder, "Uh, as for the meeting. It's to try and get more detail about the dream you had so they can try to identify which one you accepted. Figure out the best course of action."

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn sighs, hanging her head. "Oh...I mean, I figured it'd be a good spiritual cleansing trip. No magic, no soul dagger. But what will happen if I come see Chas and the others? Will they try and lock me up in a padded room or something? I...Don't wanna be locked up. I don't wanna be treated as dangerous.."

She looks away then, taking another, longer sip of her hot cocoa, was that a red glint in her eyes? "I think everybody is overreacting..I'm fine, really! Besides, are you saying that other 'me' was in reality a god in disguise? Because..This hole in my soul..I've been battling it for some time.l"

Thomas Blake has posed:
Thomas Blake is at a loss for words. So he doesn't speak. He sets his mug down, takes and puts her mug down, then hugs her. He lifts her partway off the counter. They touch foreheads, cat and kitten. He rolls his head against hers. "First we see what they say. If we don't like it, they can fuck off. We'll go to Zatanna or Doctor Fate. Always good to get a second opinion. Second, you're stuck with me, I mean you could be my femme fatale in that outfit." He kisses her forehead and starts rubbing her temples.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn pouts a bit, hugging Thomas tightly, and his proximity seems to relax her some. At least she's smiling a bit. "Awe, you're so sweet. I'm really your kitten? Heey, I could go out and fight crime in this new costume! And yeah, screw em, we should just go on that safari anyway, get away from it all. Whose gonna stop us?" oh, right..Mike.

Thomas Blake has posed:
Thomas Blake looks at Mike and then back to her. "Yeah, we'll get Mike on the shit list and I'm pretty sure we'll like who they saddle us with a lot less. As for who'd stop us, I have no idea. Only other people I know in this so far Rien, Gabby and some guy named Chas. I have a feeling we are not getting along. On the other hand, if we're in Africa and you need help, all I do is punch things." Small smirk.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn frowns, "I just need to get away from everything. I don't wanna become public enemy No.1.." she sighs, glancing at Mike. "I know you're only trying to help, I just..I don't want to be locked up or something if I come and talk to Chas and the others. What I need right now is peace and quiet. A spiritual cleansing."

Thomas Blake has posed:
Thomas Blake looks down on the kitten. "You really want to go to Africa, right now?" He gets a little nod. He goes over to the sleeping area and begins tossing her new clothes into a backpack. He hits a button on the wall and a panel opens revealing five bags. He selects one labeled 'Africa'. He selects a phone from his nightstand and removes a small bag that jingles. "Go get these heads. We're meeting and then we're heading out for a few days. You heard her."

Michael Hannigan has posed:
Mike's mouth is ajar as he watches the pair go back and forth with the conversation as if he wasn't even there. But once the bags are pulled out, whatever stupor that has fallen over him is killed away. "Oh for fuck's sake."

"I don't think they're going to lock you up." Mike replies, "But, considering they want to meet off sight, you're probably considered a security risk until they figure out what's going on. So best thing to do is help them figure out what's going on. I've just been asked to keep an eye on you two to make sure nothing else pops up. And you running off to Africa while things are being worked on isn't going to help matters."

A glance is given to Pixie. "...There's also a concern that what you encountered might also go after Tom. And considering how aggressive you got..." He looks over to Tom, "I'm not sure you want to end up at that level that around Pixie. So yeah... stick around at least for the meeting. AND for me to at least teach you how to do the damn spell. God you two are just..." He grumbles, getting up to head to the maker himself to make coffee.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn blinks slowly between Mike and Thomas, seemingly torn. "Um...Okaaay, fume, I'll stick around to listen to what Chas has to say, I just.." she sighs, "I'm not sure who I can trust anymore, I'm not sure what's real and what's not. That image in my dreams was so real.." she glances at Thomas as he grabs bags, biting her lip, "Hold on, we can wait a couple of days right? Mike, is Chas gonna meet us here or...?"

Thomas Blake has posed:
Thomas Blake says, "Right. Have your meeting. We will decide to go to Africa after we get the information and can make an informed decision. Maybe the spell and location together are what we need. You don't know yet. After the meeting, if we decide to go, this wonderful invention is a satellite phone. Anything goes wrong I'll call you. We can portal back in a second. Or I'm sure someone can portal to us. Meanwhile... she destresses. Fair enough? Go meet with this guy and if you need me, call -because I'm getting worked up myself. I'll beat someone up or wrestle with the tiger. I'm not good to meet right now. Portal me in or whatever. Fucking magic. fucking old gods." He rubs his eyes.

Michael Hannigan has posed:
"I'd say pick a place you're comfortable being in." Mike allows, looking over to Thomas after he pops a k-cup in. "I'm not sure if you'd be okay with others coming here. But, pick a neutral place and I'll go let them know where you're comfortable meeting."

Mike looks over to Pixie, "It might take some time but we'll figure this out." A finger presses on the button causing for the machine to whrr to life.

Megan Gwynn has posed:
Megan Gwynn nods to Mike, "The nearby park in happy harbour seems neutral enough..I'd rather it not be a huge thing. Just you two, Chas, maybe Jon." she nods to Thomas and smiles, "Yeah we should bring it up, maybe they'd agree it'd do me wonders." she bites her lip at the comment about magic.
