"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.

"Architect division of... what...?" He asked, frowning. Something was going on here, and one of the two of them was missing something. It wasn't usually him, but then he did find himself sounding a bit like the kid, which boded ill.

"Of .... you know." He said, with a pointed raise of his eyebrows. "Or ... wait, you're from a different plane of the IHOP, aren't you? That would explain a lot. Do they not build neighborhoods for the dead, where you're from?"

[situational_ethics]

Well, he could admit ignorance, or he could bluff and draw out more information. Sadly he could use the kid for this one, as they always made a good team. Even when the kid wasn't aware he was asking the questions Aahz couldn't without blowing the ruse. Still, until he did know more, he had to play this just right.

Which meant no pancake jokes unless he was sure that it would be taken as a joke. Still, there was already a lot to work from. Human suits instead of disguise spells. Planes rather than dimensions. So far, different names for things he already had handled.

IHOP could go either way.

The neighborhoods for the dead thing however... that was interesting. So it was time to roll the dice. "You stop at neighborhoods?"

[takeitsleazy]

"Well, sort of. They divide people up based on what suits them best, you know? Cat people, dog people ..." He made a face. "Teacup pig people. Foodies, groupies, Groupon users, you name it, there's probably a neighborhood for it. And some of them are just ... experimental, to see what sort of things happen when you put certain souls together for eternity. Whether they make each other better or worse. Why, what do you do?"

He clasped his hands together with a curious and genial smile. He really did love talking shop, even though he wasn't really sure he could still consider himself an Architect. The dynamics of it all - of the humans - utterly fascinated him, and knowing what other dimensions did would be just as enthralling.

See this is where the kid would ask if that meant people who were cats, he'd tell the kid to shut up while watching the other person's reaction. Still, he could roll with it.

"Oh I dabble. Little bit of this, little bit of that. Mostly... I'm a problem solver. I get called in on the... trickier cases."

Michael's eyes sparkled a little at the implication - or was it just the way the sunlight hit his glasses that made his eyes look a bit gold?

"That sounds like fun. Tell me about the trickiest? If it isn't too confidential, I mean."

[situational_ethics]

"I'd love to, but not knowing how much classified information you have access to... that does make it hard to know which stories I can tell, if you know what I mean."
