ninth examination [ written / action ]

[longaevus]

[ Helen may have quickly learned of the fact that the journal could transcribe what it was that she said but she preferred still to write it - at least then it would say what she wanted with more careful thought. So for those she's written to before, recognise the writing? ]

I've heard many a story since my arrival here, or regression as it was phrased. To simply learn that my future leads to here is astounding, even if in either case I am captive.

I was informed also that many here knew me? I admit to being curious, not of my future [ She's not sure if she wants to know that ] but of yourselves. I have heard of much that before I could not think possible [ And that's big to her ] and would rather like to hear more, if any of you would be so inclined.

Regardless of information I'd like to introduce myself; I am Doctor Helen Magnus. It will be a pleasure to learn what I can from you.

[ Later that day, after managing to sneak away from the protective eyes of James and Nikola Helen can be found wandering the castle. Castle's aren't new, she's seen them before but this one makes her curious - it's a different time and apparently a different world - she'd like to see all that she can. Anyone for a tour and a chat? ]

[Conan runs into her in one of the castle hallways. For a moment he stands and observes her as he analyzes the situation.]

You were in the lobby earlier, weren't you?

[longaevus]

I was, yes. [ She'd been many places, albeit slowly but hadn't taken note of who had been there. The quick words of this boy do surprise her a little, but that's nothing compared to everything else. Manners have changed so much along with the world ]

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

I thought so. [Conan looks up at her, craning his neck a little to see her face.]

Do you remember the same things as Dr. Watson?

[longaevus]

Of what we have experienced, yes. I've known James for several years.

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

And you don't remember anything of the castle?

[longaevus]

I do not. Apparently my being here is from a time in my future; it is understandable that I would not remember visiting somewhere that I have yet to visit.

[modernholmes.livejournal.com]

Understandable, but troublesome and confusing.

Name's Maladict, fellow botherer of Nikola. What do you need to know?

[longaevus]

I remember seeing you on our arrival. I apologise for not greeting you then, the situation was rather surprising.

Do you know James and myself, or simply just Nikola?

[mal-addict.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, thinking you've just arrived in a creepy magical castle does that to people.

I've come to know you and James through Nikola.

[longaevus]

You'll forgive me if I find the magic a little hard to accept.

Then we have been here for some time?

[mal-addict.livejournal.com]

That's alright, I find technology hard to accept, so we're even.

You've come and gone a few times, James has been here for a couple of months, and Nikola about a year.

[longaevus]

Where you are from is far different then this, am I to take it?

Would you happen to recall when I was from on those occasions? I have no recollection of being here previously.
