Hello

[xp_topaz]

I'm new, and I was told I should introduce myself here.

My name is Topaz (yes, that's my real name). I’m from England, and I guess I’ll be attending school and living here.

I look forward to meeting everyone.

So now you have three students? Is this an apt example of the 'what you do shall be returned to you three-fold' rule?

[xp_daytripper]

Oh, very clever. :P

(and yes, I totally thought of that and Strange pretty much said as much when I told him about Topaz and I am so fucked now, aren't I?)

Here is my question. If you have been given three students to teach because you were a terror to Doctor Strange... what did he do to deserve you?

... I think we should ask.

although if we believe in fate, then perhaps this is not punishment but the universe pointing Nico and Billy and Topaz in your direction because you have ... there is a saying I forget about a man and a well?

This guy's walking down a street when he falls in a hole. The walls are so steep, he can't get out. A doctor passes by, and the guy shouts up, "Hey you, can you help me out?" The doctor writes a prescription, throws it down in the hole and moves on. Then a priest comes along, and the guy shouts up "Father, I'm down in this hole, can you help me out?" The priest writes out a prayer, throws it down in the hole and moves on. Then a friend walks by. "Hey Joe, it's me, can you help me out?" And the friend jumps in the hole. Our guy says, "Are you stupid? Now we're both down here." The friend says, "Yeah, but I've been down here before, and I know the way out."

Aw.

This is why I don't go to church anymore?

[xp_daytripper]

That's... wow. I think I might be printing that one out and sticking it up somewhere.

Can't take credit for it, but yeah.

The West Wing, "Noel". AKA pretty much the finest hour of television ever created.

I already asked him. He clammed up on me, but he had a certain look to him. Apparently Old Stick in the Mud Strange got up to shenanigans at some point, I think. I wonder if Wanda could coax any stories out of him?

and then we can coax the stories out of Wanda with good wine!

In all honesty, nowadays I'm less a student and more a menace worthy of being watched over.

[xp_daytripper]

That you are. Not so much of a student, that is. Menances are in the eye of the beholder. ;)

I'm deceptively cute, that's all.

You're not free from me just yet though.
