Sunspark -- The Door Into Fire

Herewiss' investigations of the doors in the hold continues apace, and Sunspark is -- well, not bored, really, because looking into other wheres can hardly fail to be interesting. But for something that's used to traveling between wheres, looking begins to lose its charm.

But here is a door that not only shows people -- an oddity in this place -- but a door that shows another crossroads, like the hold, unless Sunspark misses its guess. And that is more than interesting enough to investigate.

The elemental sees no reason to change its current form, so the head that pokes curiously through the door is that of a handsome stallion, blood-bay in color. Anyone nearby might notice the air around the "horse" heating up.

Carmela Rodriguez -- Young Wizards

Now, only a very stupid business-being would use a public place like Milliways to count his/her/its earnings. Doing an inventory of merchandise, on the other hand . . .

After all, ask any salesman from Cyrano Jones to Willy Loman: having your product visible encourages sales.

Which is why Carmela is sitting at a table near the front door, sorting chocolate bars, truffles, and packs of hot chocolate powder by their quality. She's got everything from cheap Hershey's and Swiss Miss to Godiva.

Reasonable resale rates?

The Lone Power -- Young Wizards

It's always here.

Here, at Universes' End, It's always present. It's even always manifest, in a way, visible in terrible beauty and glory in the neverending destruction outside the Observation Window.

It's always here.

Tonight, It's here in a manifestation that some might find familiar: a young man, red-haired, in a finely tailored black suit, lounging in an armchair with a view of the Window and watching the spectacle with the grim satisfaction of an artist-cum-general.

He's beautiful. He's terrifying.

He's holding a glass of Atlantean in one hand, casually, because even the Lone Power, Fairest and Fallen, the Starsnuffer, the Bringer of Wildfires -- even It wants a drink now and then.

( Warnings galore for the Lone Power! )

Biking all summer, going down West Hill a couple times a week, and where does she finally wipe out? On freaking Spenard, four days before she leaves.

Man. At least it wasn't a bad crash.

Adiva wanders into Milliways today looking pink-cheeked and sweaty, vainly trying to make her hair look like it didn't just spend half an hour under a helmet and poking gingerly at the dirt ground into her right palm.

Wireless access in Milliways is spotty, but Adiva brought her laptop this time anyway. Stopped time is an awesome way to work on a vid when you're really supposed to be packing.

REM's "It's the End of the World As We Know It" is playing quietly on loop, and season one of Heroes is playing in the other window, with the sound off.

Yes, Adiva is keeping a careful eye out for anyone who might be canon-punctured by it.

Comment with your pup and mine, and I will tell you:

1) Why they don't get along.
2) How my pup's opinion of yours has changed over time.

Or possibly I'll just ramble at you about interactions. You know how it goes.
