Kansas. Something to do with demons had pulled her to Kansas and that was a little freaky-weird even in the wacky world of Claire Bennet where Bio Dad's ran their very own version of Guantanamo Bay while all the time trying to keep her safe and Psychopaths ripped her head open while getting chatty about it. But demons, well they were new to her. And jerks who didn't believe in evolution. And Peter Parker talking to her like it was a normal occourance. Did he know he was Spiderman, did he know she knew?. Could she hum it at him?. Hiro would be so so jealous right now.

But more worryingly to Claire, she was stuck here. In this weird freaky alterna-world, and all she had to go on was that there were apartments she was supposed to go to, for answers. They'd help her out, and hell if you couldn't trust Spiderman who could you trust. So Claire had left the net cafe near the crappy student hostel she was staying in and headed for the apartments as quickly as she could. She'd been offered answers which she had to admit was a bit of a rarity for her and so she'd taken the chance.

The complex itself looked kinda awesome, she had to admit. Like a proper apartment block and it belonged to the people brought here just like she had been, good people by the sounds of things, and jerkface guy wasn't in it from what she'd worked out. Talking about evolution and god and all sorts, crazy person. She'd wanted to shove Suresh's Dad's book in his face and kick him in the shins.

She got to the main lobby of the place and looked around.

"Hello?"

Claire smiled back, figuring the guy seemed friendly enough if a touch overly so. But he was being helpful and he was in these apartments where she was supposed to get help with where she was supposed to stay. She moved over toward the guy wondering would he think she was crazy when she asked what she did. Hopefully not, hopefully he was aware of the crazy and didn't think she was mad.

"I'm Claire Bennet, Just got here a little while ago and well.." Here came the crazy "Peter Parker said this is where I was supposed to come for somewhere to stay and some kinda explaination as to what all this demon stuff is and what I need to do to keep safe here"

It was still all kinds of confusing to Claire, but she'd picked up one thing.

"And there's really no way home?"

"James Potter." He said, holding his hand out, by way of introduction. "Yeah, this is where we're all staying. Figured it would be good as a home base for all the new arrivals." James explained, not at all phased by the name she'd thrown out. First of all, he'd seen the bloke around when he'd been a kid. Second seeing as James got all of two minutes in some Hag's book, he wasn't about to call someone crazy for saying that they'd spoken to Spiderman. Even if he hadn't seen the bloke much around. For all he knew, with all the arrivals, the Hulkish person was hiding around somewhere. Why not? There was a dinosaur apparently.

"I can tell you most of it. Buffy or Andrew, they're in charge, would probably best to tell you everything else. Like how to get a job and such. Though we magic types could probably help with some stuff. Like easy transportation." That was actually said to be genuine and helpful and not sleazy. Not that he wouldn't have minded apparating a pretty girl wherever she wanted to go (within limits) but he had been just being nice with that. Then he paused. "You were filled in on that right?" His brows furrowed. "Maybe it'd be best for you to just tell me what you do know and I'll try my best to fill in the rest. And aye, there's no way to go home unless, you're somehow pulled back. There was this bloke. Two of them really. They left but they were brought back a bit down their own world's timeline, so it'd seem."

"You're Harry Potter's Dad!" said Claire excitedly before thinking that, first, she reallly hoped he knew he was fictional and second, wasn't James Potter kind of a jerk even if Snape was being all Slytherin he and Sirius had been kind of nasty to him and were bullies. But she'd give him the benifit of the doubt since Lily had married him anyway.

"I sort of just know the basics where there are demons, and seals breaking pushing the whole world to apocolyptic doom. And...yeah no way home. I'm not liking that bit most of all. Not sure what I can do for a job, not really qualified beyond at home I was a cheerleader and I worked in a comic book store for a whole few days one time?"

Not exactly steller was it. Any of it.

"I'll ask Buffy and Andrew the rest but thats more or less the jist, right?"

James made a face at her. It was automatic and not at all her fault. If it had been anyone else ... not so much calling him Harry Potter's dad but making some comparison to himself with James or Sirius, they would have surely gotten something. Because by now anyone with a brain should have figured that not only was he his own person but he didn't like being compared to the GREAT Sirius and the just as GREAT James. However, in this world he knew how things were different. He'd seen the internet and the HIGHLY bizarre fanbases. If this place had brought him here when he was younger, say at eleven he would have been annoyed (hell, even if he'd still been nine ... actually at nine he'd found the comparisons .. alright) and even at seventeen, not too happy with her. Because really. However, at twenty-one, he managed to just keep his irritation to a face, before sighing.

"No, I'm James Sirius Potter. I'm his son." He gave her a bemused expression before leaving it at that. He wasn't expecting as much excitement ... unless she was one of the weird Scorpius/James lovers. Which just mean that he'd have to prove to her that James Sirius Potter was clearly the better Potter, the best Potter. In general.

He listened as she spoke, nodding slowly, brow quirking ever so slightly at the cheerleader part and his mouth curving, "Don't know about the former, luv, but the latter could get you some money. Right easy. That is if you're interested." James stretched slightly, a highly thoughtful expression on his face, bringing his fingers to the back of his head and scratching through his hair for a second. Pensive. "Yeah, I reckon you could if you wanted? Or do you have any hobbies and stuff? Secret talents you never tried? Like I was a musician back home and I play at bars and wherever else they'd let me." That wasn't a hobby, that was his life's work and his pride and joy. However, he was just letting her now that it could be anything. "And sometimes I help some them around. Fixing things, muggle way from some extra money."

He paused, realizing that he'd nearly missed the first half of what she'd said. A sheepish expression passed over his features and he gave her a wide grin, not his best of course. But still a pretty nice one. "Right. All of it's true. You can get a tattoo or an amulet to keep away the possession. And Buffy and Andrew can help you with that. With all of it. Good people. The both of them." Even when Buffy wanted to do stupid shite like go after Fenrir.

His son. That was something new. Though she'd remembered the last book and the whole 'All was Well' stuff. James Sirius, Albus Severus and Lily Luna. Must have been weird for the guy to know everyone knew everything all about him. Least he was only at the end. But she could see it a little bit, Not that he looked like that Radcliffe guy that much but she could see it in the attitude a little. And was he flirting with her?

"I figure I'll need money. This is supposed to be some kinda place to stay so maybe I could help out." She went sorta quiet at the talk of hidden secret talents. "Nah, nothing...nothing much like that" Except that when she got hurt she healed, and was immortal, and then there was the whole super blood stuff. "I'm not special."

Not special but a tattoo wouldn't work. The ink wouldn't hold on her skin. But some evil creature having her body would suck. From what little she knew about demons, That'd be bad.

"An amulet?. I don't like tattoos really but I'll wear the amulet. This is all still kinda insane."
