WHO || Phineas, Max, open! feel free to bump into them
WHAT || Max meets with his squire
WHERE || Upstairs rec room
WHEN || May 10 [backdated]
HOW || Actionspam

A week and a half after Phineas' squiring ceremony, he gets a simple text on his Drakenet phone:

hope you've figured out how to use this. meet me upstairs in the rec room with the pool table at 8.

--max

With seemingly little regard as to whether Phineas actually knows what a rec room is (or a pool table for that matter), Max bides his time with a game, awaiting his squire's appearance.

More or less.

It's not too dissimilar to magic - enough to fool most, anyway... Though, many would frown on it, knowing the truth.

Even so, it's not dangerous... it adheres strictly to the rules of the pact, and the trust in a promise.

Not everybody considers what I do exactly kosher either. Probably isn't, given the source, but I figure what you use something for is the important part, right?

[thesleeper]

Thoughts like that are what get me though the day...

Hopefully, I can do some good here for you people... apparently I came here to do something important... maybe this is it?

[He shrugs]

[necessaryevil]

Came here as in the Knights, or this world?

Lis'sa didn't tell you? I had some half-burned note that I'd penned for myself when I awoke in that desert... Seems I came here with some intent to do something important. No mention of what, or how I got here though... Only other thing that stands out as odd to me is this tattoo [He holds out the back of his hand, to show the design.] I don't remember this at all... but I'm not sure if it's relevant, or not. [He shrugs] I'll probably never know.

[necessaryevil]

She probably figured you'd mention it, if it was important.

[thesleeper]

Well... that's yet to be seen, I suppose.

At any rate, brooding over a missing memory won't bring it back, so I'm told. Fate has a cruel sense of humor, more often than not...

[necessaryevil]

You're not kidding.

So. Any pressing questions you need me to answer?
