Calling Leo Lockheart, First Talon

[Avis]

Avis dug a cheap, pre-paid phone out of her jeans and dialed the number of her only contact in Sacramento. Though maybe calling it a 'contact' was a bit premature. She didn't even know the name of the person the number belonged too. A thread of nervousness creeping through her, she dug a box of flavored toothpicks out of her other pocket, stuck a pick between her teeth and then hit 'send'. She lightly chewed on the birchwood while the phone rang.

Picking up the phone to yet another stranger, Leo answered with a simple, "Hello."

[Avis]

"Yeah, hey," Avis replied into the phone, taking the pick out of her mouth. "This is, uh, well, my name is Avis. I'm from over Chicago way and the word over there was that your chapter was losing members, so I thought I'd come over and help bring the numbers back up. The brass said this was the number to call to introduce myself and get in touch."

[Xander]

There was a brief pause. Another Chicago Mage? Maybe sent by Vae? Maybe the same shifty shitheads that brought Pertinax into the fold? Either way he was the one stuck vetting her.

"Circle of Creation, be there at [time]. I'm bringing another new person in so don't be too late."

[Avis]

"Uh, Ok. No problem. I'll be there. I'm looking forward to it," she said, a bit surprised by the news. Another Arrow had decided to come and help fill in the gaps, huh? Wasn't odd in itself, but the timing sure was fortunate. For a second Avis thought about asking which bus line ran closest to the building but she figured a place called the Circle of Creation wouldn't be too hard to find and it wouldn't hurt to find it herself. She'd have to start figuring out her way around the city sooner or later.
