"You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality."

I. Exploring Main Street! Take a trip through a little town taken straight from 1890's America. Visit the shops, dine at the restaurants- but don't forget you are here on a mission. As an Apprentice, you will need to gather some supplies. A weapon, or tool for producing magic.

But we understand if that corn dog cart on Market Street is your first stop.

II. Apprentice Class 101! Practice your spell casting and weaponship on the open commons behind the Firehouse. Sparring, casting or just general confusion abound here. Try not to hit anything or...anyone, the paint on the infirmary is still drying.

III. Look out! A level 2 corroded monster has managed to get onto Main Street! Protect the citizens and defeat the cur, and please watch the damage, the paint is still wet!

IV. One Little Spark! Go ahead, show us the strength of your imagination and come up with your own scenarios. Just, stay out of the Corroded Lands...if possible.

You know that classic Grinch smirk when he begins thinking about stealing Christmas?

Imagine that times twenty, 'cause that's what's happening on her beak.

"Is that right?" Someone with a connection to Scrooge! Finally, things were starting to go her way! If Scrooge ever did show up, she had a potential hostage or trade! Scrooge liked to play the part of the independent miser, but his heart was his weakness.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Fenton. A real pleasure." It was taking Herculean effort to restrain a classic villain laugh. "I see no reason why we can't work together for a common cause." And then have her betray him when the moment suited her.

[beancounter]

Oh. Juuuuust perfect. He did not like that expression on Magica. He just had to open his big mouth, didn't he? Well, his connection to Scrooge would have come out sooner or later anyway... if not by him, then through someone else he'd introduced himself to.

Folding his arms, Fenton huffed. Like he'd willingly work with her. But they WERE both trapped in this world, until they could fix whatever had gone wrong here, at least. And Fenton definitely felt 'trapped' in every sense of the word, right now. "Can't say the same, myself..." he muttered lowly under his breath.

Taking a few steps aside, Fenton gestured up the street. "Well, as... much of a pleasure as it was..." Which it wasn't. "I've got stuff I need to go do. I'm sure there are plenty more people that would work better together with you, than me. So if you'll excuse me..."

[lifesa_witch]

"Hold it." She reached out to grab a fistful of his sleeve - he didn't think he was getting away that easily, did he?

"True, I have nothing for you to do right this second." Not unless he felt like making her a pizza or getting her a cup of coffee, and she doubted he wanted to do either, judging by the fear in his eyes. "But you and I will be seeing each other plenty. After all, we're the only ones of like mind here - and of like body. We can't trust these other-worlders. So when I can find you... I will."

Then, mostly as an afterthought, she waved a dismissive hand. "And, I suppose, I can do one or two things for you."

[beancounter]

Well he'd hoped he would have been able to get away that easily. He offered Magica a sheepish grin as he stopped.

"Who says I can even do the things you'd ask of me?" Who says I will? he thought. "I don't think my mind is anything like yours... and some of these other guys don't seem too bad."

But oooh boy. That 'I will find you' was definitely a threat in Fenton's mind. What kind of mess had he gotten himself into now? Argh... Well, he'd just have to figure out how to deal with things as he came and maybe - hopefully - he'd be able to make Magica lose interest in him.

"Oh... that's quite okay! I don't think there's anything I really need..."

[lifesa_witch]

"We only just arrived. Time will tell what either of us can do."

But finally, she let him go. After all, for that exact second, she had no use of him, and they both needed to explore this world and find out more information.

"Until then, go do your... accounting things, or whatever it is you people do."

[beancounter]

Time will tell, indeed. At least, in this world, Fenton has the chance to develop his own magical ability, so... Well... He'd never truly be on Magica's level, once she got the hang of magic here, let's be honest... but he wouldn't be completely helpless, either.

"Ahhh... yeah. Accounting stuff. Lots of things to count in this place!" And without wasting any more time, he jogged off down the street. He had no idea where he was going, he just wanted to get away. Find some place where he could sit down and process just what happened.

And maybe he'd also figure out a way to get her uninterested in him. (He'd probably manage that by just being his usual, screw-up self.)

But...yeah. Magica DeSpell. Here. And with her eye on him. Woooooonderful.
