@HauntedScarlet Stephen shakes his head and purses his lips at the thought of the ravaged multiverses.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"I understand you were no ally at that time, let alone to anyone. But now, you are in repentance, correct?"
" a moment, please— "
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The sorcerer utters, his eyes locked on the page he is currently reading. His gaze lifts and turns to the visitor, " Can I help you? "
He ponders for a moment, his finger resting on his chin.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"As the Sorcerer Supreme, I cannot let this realm come close to any harm. Please, I would like to offer my assistance with this matter."
"Oh, you know... Just a bloody Dark Lord may have made one, that we need to get rid of, to avenge someone who died for the sake of getting at it. Just—you know, standard Dark wizard hunter stuff... Leave it to me!" She smiles tightly, taking a couple of mincing steps back,
"Ah, yes, thank you so much, M'sieur..." She smiles up at him, again, and ever-so gingerly accepts the old book from his hands. "Sorry; I just needed to read up on how one destroys a Horcrux, right fast.... Don't even need to take this book from the room, in fact!"
@HauntedScarlet Stephen's brows furrow in worry,
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"No no," he takes a step closer to her, gently placing a hand over her shoulder, "I am sorry for my own actions as well. It did not need to have gone to such lengths."
His gaze turns elsewhere, scanning the room. With a flick of his hand, the missing book hovers from a corner table and is sent to his grasp.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"I trust this would be it," he rises from his seat and gently hands the book to her.
"Ah, is that what it is?" She smiles bashfully at the seated man, and adds, "Sorry; I thought you were perusing /Most Terrible Magicks/ in here. That's the book I've come for, and—well, it doesn't seem to be on the shelf..."
"Indeed, you can, M'sieur... I need that book, s'il vous plait." The tiny woman reached out for the relatively large book that was in the good Doctor's lap at the moment...
@AngelusLustum "No one is ever ready," he does a flick of his wrist, and the photograph hovers towards his private chambers.
"Plus if you wait for that moment, it may never arrive."
@AngelusLustum Steel hues widen slightly at her response before he takes hold of it once more.
"Thank you, Seri. . ." he utters softly, "I'm gonna be a grandfather."

[ ah, another thing I am thankful for. ]
[ 30 dogs? El, we fought aliens. ]
[ do you want me to stop by for some cheesecake? ]
[ absolutely! he misses you. ]
@AngelusLustum His eyes continue to observe the image, the twinkle of his lips becoming visible.
"I can wait," he chuckles while giving it back to her, "I'm quite emotional, I must admit."
@EnhancedWitch_ It seems that may serve as a problem as it is, does she want some lessons from him?
He could share some wisdom or two over a cup of tea.

[ technically, no one is stealing me from you. ]
[ technology isn't my strong suit, anyway. ]
[ yours, please. ]
[ I need the change of scenery. ]
@ArmouredMecenas [ Text to » El ]
[ sadly, other dimensions don't have service. ]
[ though do know, the feeling is mutual. ]
[ let's make it not bland and have some tea, then? ]
