afterparty.... yay....

[mirrari]

So, how many people actually saw that coming ICly?

The movie theater has been Chosen, with alcohol and juice brought from the saloon, as well as a few of the easier to move bar games. There's no movies playing just yet, but there's comfy chairs and plenty of options for people who don't fancy being all on their lonesome right now.

I'm with you. There's gotta be another way out.

[Multiverse travel is well beyond his level of understanding, so no idea what that other way might be, but it's gotta exist, right?

He chuckles at the apology.]

If we only discuss cheerful topics, we're never getting out of here. I'll take "productive" over "cheerful".

Is this kind of magical crap normal where you're from?

[driftingknight]

[Bringing in people from other worlds is sort of what kept his world from falling a part for a while there, so at least Baldr has confidence that there must be some other method to go back. The only question is what that method might be...]

Magic, yes. This particular kind... no, although I also can't say there aren't things in my world that bear a similarity to it. But magic isn't something I have ever been able to use, so my knowledge on that front is sadly rather limited.

If Phillip-san were here, perhaps...

[rightmove]

You and me both. All of that kind of stuff is foreign to me. The only magic we've got where I'm from is the stage magic crap that guys like Doug Henning put on. Just for show. Not real.

[At least Baldr is familiar with the concept of real magic, but Healy isn't going to point that out like it's an advantage. No one really knows what they're working with here, he's come to realize.]

Who's Phillipsan?

[and what are honorifics???]

[driftingknight]

The most powerful mirrist - magic user - in my world. If there were anyone who could find a way to send all of us back to our worlds, it would be him.

[There's only a very slight bit of resentment left as he says this, because facts are facts. The other things Phil has done with his knowledge and mirristry are irrelevant here.]

It would have been far more useful for him to have been brought here than me, in truth.

[rightmove]

[Healy frowns.]

Who said anything about usefulness? I really doubt we were brought here for a reason like that. Not like anyone can use magic around here, anyway.

[Not that that impacts him in any way.]

Keep this between us, but I think those of us without any fancy magical abilities back home have a bit of a leg up here anyhow. We've got different sets of strengths that haven't been taken away.

[It's not actually a secret, but he's not interested in starting shit.]
