Okay, I get most of this. Portals to other worlds. We're stuck in a small town in Maine with no mall. We can't leave. There's a girl who looks like my best friend but isn't a shapeshifting alien.

I just have one question.

Who broke magic?

I mean...seriously. What did you do?

I would just like to state for the record that it was not me. I wasn't even doing magic when I was brought here. I got dropped here in my freaking pajamas.

My guess would be someone here. After all, the portals are all coming here. The barrier is keeping people here. This is pretty much the weirdness epicenter.

So, you do magic too?

Yup. I was a wizard, and then I got drafted into being a junior faerie queen. What's your deal?

That's pretty cool. How do you get drafted into being a faerie queen?

I'm a witch. And a mutant. But mostly a witch.

In my case, you have the Leanansidhe training you in magic, and then you happen to be nearby when the Winter Lady gets killed...and then you go off for an internship with Queen Mab. Before that, I would've called myself a wizard - we use witch to mean a person who follows one of the pagan religions, "practitioner" to refer generically to people who use magic, and wizard to mean a practitioner with a certain level of talent and training. Same for you, or different?

No one broke magic, I assure you. It's... Different here.

I'm sorry. When portals start showing up out of nowhere and there's a barrier keeping people in, that means someone did something to make it happen.

And considering I can normally go between worlds and now I can't, something is wrong.

It was accidental. Using magic in this realm has had unforeseen consequences. I assume it's different from where you come from as well, hence your failure to use it normally.

Well, it's really unfortunate, but I guess it could be worse.

So, you mentioned getting jobs. What about all the teenagers, since there seem to be quite a few of us. At least one has her dad here, but are a bunch of sixteen and seventeen year olds really expected to just fend for themselves. Some of us can probably handle it, but I know some probably can't. Especially if we're all still stuck here when school rolls around again.

Unfortunately we have no control over whether or not minors are pulled through the portals. We'll be working on a solution to that problem, thank you so much for your concern.

It's not broken so much as in a state of flux. There was no magic, now there's magic and you. Tomorrow there might be just you. Tomorrow tomorrow, who knows.

But blame the Mayor and Gold, if you're looking for fingers to point. Portals out don't work, trust me.

Unlikely, but you can ask again if you want.

I don't suppose I should expect anything less than ungratefulness after I saved this town and everyone in it.

Gratitude for saving us from what? The end results of what you started? And they call me mad.

Well, that's not ominous or anything.

I'm not trying to blame anyone. I'm just trying to figure things out so I can go home. Look, I don't like to blow my own horn or anything, but I'm no slouch on the magic front. I figure the more I know, the more likely I can fix this.

Can you fix what's not actually broken? Probably not. But try away, you can't do worse than the crowd in charge.

I'd say something's broken, unless uncontrollable portals and impenetrable barriers are the norm around here.

That doesn't mean broken, it means not working the way it's expected to. Entirely different things.

You keep some interesting company it sounds like.

Wait...magic?

[info]ex_demiurge357

That's one way of putting it.

Yeah. Magic. You came to a small town in Maine through a portal, and you're surprised by magic?

For the most part. There's a few things that aren't working, but it seems to be fine.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]toocruel
2013-07-09 03:14 am UTC (link)
That's a promising start. Since you're still here, any magic for going home isn't working though?

[info]ex_demiurge357
2013-07-09 03:15 am UTC (link)
That's pretty much the only thing not working.
