 Grab a Quick Bite (Dee Rune Ruby)
|
   |
|
A little frazzled, Ruby seems eager to get out of the museum. She grabs her coat and follows you outside.
"It it alright if we just walked a spell?" She asks softly. The deli is only a couple of blocks anyway.

"Walking is fine with me, the fresh air can do us some good." Rune replies with a smile. He was in a good mood, they had got some good leads, Archie was going to be alright and he seemed to have met some decent mages already.

John takes in the fresh air. They had a lot to work with. He was amazed at how set up the Mysterium in Sacramento was and equally pissed off he had been sent here so blindly. Depending on how quickly it took for things to blow over for he might press the issue.
"So how long have both of you been in Sacramento?" Dee probes.

"Just about a week I'd say. It's been... rough in spots though. We're not as much put together as we look."
She turns, and appraises Dee.
"Don't think I met you yet. I'm Ruby."

Embarrassed a bit "I am John, I am the new peeping tom in Sacramento" he says dryly with a grin. "Well you have been here almost twice as long as me. Settling in ok?"

"Oh, no!" She laughs. "You're the one who scared up a storm earlier today. Don't feel too bad about it, when Phrymides showed up, she had been caught on camera riding a bicycle at 72 miles an hour."
"So I wouldn't worry too much."

Laughing at the image of a mage on a bike going that fast, some how it brought up thoughts of those old cartoons Rune shook his head. " Looks like I'm falling behind already here 4 days and I've only upset the guardians, and I didn't even use flashy magic."

"Don't get in too much trouble though. Phrymides is under Mage house arrest for maybe three months."
"Hopefully things will settle down soon." She shrugs.

"What happened with the disappearances you mean? Well, the folks in charge are still working on it. At first they thought it was something to do with Spirits and all, but I guess that's just not the case anymore."
Ruby turns and squints in the sunlight.
"Tyria spends most of her time workin' on this place, the Ziggurat. Don't know much more about that though. But there are oodles of cases of weird spell resonance popping up over the city and my bet is Tyria thinks they've got something to do with one another."

"Well I doubt I'll get into too much trouble, I'm a pretty boring guy." Rune stops and thinks for a moment.
"Has Tyria mentioned anything about something called an anchor? maybe a powerful item of some sort?"

"You mean the Anchor of Khelad-Dumand? Scourge of the world flame, plague of the third nation of men? Bringer of..."
Ruby can't keep a straight face.
"I'm sorry hun. Couldn't help myself. I'm afraid I don't know anything about this Anchor. Most of my work has been Art History related, so I haven't been able to do much in the way of investigation here. I've just been meeting the people."

For a moment Rune looked excited until he realised she was joking, " I figured it wouldn't be that easy, but still it was worth asking." Taking a moment to order Rune decides John has the right idea, "Same for me please.,"
"But if it was easy it wouldn't be fun." Rune smiles wide

The man over the counter takes their orders and prepares two ruebens, and one turkey sandwich (No mayo please!).
"So, what do you do? Or at least, what did you used to do before you came to Sacramento?" Ruby asks John and Rune.

"Well I'm an archeologist, no where near as skilled or well known as Tyria, but I loved doing it and the mysterium loved what I found so it was a good scenerio, For some reason they thought my skills are needed more here then out in the fields and so here I am."

Impressive Rune, I think we will be able to work well together, I lack any formal schooling. But have spent a health amount of time in the field.
Dee has not measured one thing in the shop as he has been composing his letters mentally.
Current Spells: 1 (Multi Tasking Mind), 2(Supernal Vision), 3(Supreme Augmentation +4 Int., +4 Comp.) 4(Ward pot.6), (Spatial Awareness / Incognito “Attainments”)

"I guess we are checking out the house if you mean the possible abandoned arrow fort, no one has enlightened be about the graveyard." He said to Ruby.
He looked to John "The schooling is overrated I may passed my classes but I didn't start learning much until I started going out in the fields myself."

We are to investigate the Richardson house that was once a secure Sanctum and minor Hallow held as an advance front against Seer territory. The Consilium wants it back under Pentacle control. Dee states as he finishes composing his letters.

Well this guy's all business isn't he?
"It's about time somebody found that place so we can stop obsessin' about it."
Sandwich finished, Ruby begins to wonder whether she should start heading back. After all, Rune and John seem to have a lot to do.
"Well boys, thank you so much for inviting me to lunch. You all going back to the museum first?"

Yes I need to head there. Thank you the deli was a good idea.
Dee calculated the volume of the deli and the number of cubic feet Ruby occupied of it.
John was distracted by matters at hand and was ready to get back.
