first ( audio )

[ Consider him curious. Maybe he shouldn't be and maybe he shouldn't even bother. But, sometimes at night—and after a martini or several, shh—certain questions and thoughts rise to the forefront of his mind no matter how much he may wish for them not to.

And, well, since he has some form of an audience here, Magnus figures: why not??

It's just audio for now, his tone is fairly even with just a small touch of amusement. Because if he can't poke fun at certain things, what's the point. Right? Right. ]

There's always quite a lot of discussion over what to do with time. Complaints about wishing to have more or wishing it would pass faster. So, I'm curious. What would you do if you had an infinite amount of time?

Oh dear, I don't believe I've introduced myself! I'm Sadie Doyle, Mrs. Sadie Doyle. Enchante!

[immortally]

[ There's a very clear smile in his tone. ]

Very much a pleasure, Mrs. Sadie Doyle. I'm Magnus Bane.

[marriedmedium]

Oh my, what a distinguished name! You must come from a very good family.

[immortally]

[ Oh boy.

He's glad this is just audio because no one can see the reaction on his face. Family, as it tends to be, is a touchy subject and one he doesn't like to discuss, really. It's complicated. It's difficult.

He pushes through, forcing a smile to be heard in his tone. ]

I do pride myself on being notable!

[marriedmedium]

[Sadie isn't completely obtuse, but without the aid of video, she doesn't notice the change in tenor.]

Then I'm sure you'll do very well for yourself here! Will your powers help you continue to be notable? Some of them are very exciting.

[immortally]

Oh I would imagine so. [ This time, the smile is incredibly obvious; ] They certainly did back home.

[marriedmedium]

Oh, are you a hero there as well?

[immortally]

Not by any stretch of the word. I'm just a presence, so to speak!

[marriedmedium]

Then do speak—how present are you?

[immortally]

There's no such thing as heroes where I come from, not like the definition here. I help those who have a need for it, for a price. I'm skilled, people know that and seek me out. Which I realize sounds suspect when phrased this way, but I assure you it isn't.

[marriedmedium]

Of course it isn't. Well done, then, and I look forward to seeing the results of your heroic derring do!
