The front door of Black Point Apartments. There are a few steps down to the pavement and a small roof over the door so you crazy smokers won't get soaked.

::The swish car holding Jasmine and Sharon pulls up to the front entrance and deposits the two women.::

"We'll call when you need you."

::Sharon dismisses the driver, her attention caught by the new building.::

"Well it does look nicer than CW."

"I can't decide if Black Point is a grim or snazzy name, though."

::Jasmine looks thoughtful, then gives Sharon a sideways cheeky grin and grabs her, yanking her up the stairs and into the office.::

::Meredith arrives with Sera, Paz, Andrea and Julie.::

"Ta da."

::She gesticulates at the building.::

"New home sweet new home."

"Looks nice."

::Paz exclaims, looking up at the door. It does indeed look like a thoroughly clean and modern apartment building.::

"Come on, kids."

::And he takes them all inside to the Proprietor's Office.::

::Chloe came here first, of course she did! She walks, mildly irritated, into the Front Office.::

(Apartment gone, I guess it's time for a new one... That old bag probably rented out my old one anyway... Fucker...)

::Julie walks down and takes a deep breath.::

(Why is she back? Everything was going so well. We were finally doing so good.)

::She searches her pockets for cigarettes until she remembers she quit.::

"Damn it."

(It's going to be fine. Andrea wouldn't do that to us. I can't even imagine how she feels right now but I don't know how my being around would help...)

::She keeps walking heading towards P3.::

::Jasmine hurries out of the building and jogs down the steps. She walks over to her waiting car and clambers in.::

"Hang on, there's probably more folk coming."

::She leaves the door open.::

(Hope she's okay.)

::Sharon arrives outside and slides into the car next to Jasmine, shaking her head at the psychic.::

"I don't know why you're offering them a lift. It's almost like you want to put yourself in the most awkward situation possible."

::She's about to reprimand Jasmine for gossiping to everyone about Paige, too, when the Charmed One might just want some privacy, but she suddenly catches herself. It's okay to nag her sisters all the time, but she has to cut her friend some slack.::

::Jasmine clicks her tongue, glaring right ahead.::

"You know what? You're right."

::She throws herself across Sharon's lap and grapples with the door handle, bringing it shut with a loud bang.::

"Let's go! Homeward bound."

::The car pulls off, going to the magic school.::

"Well then..."

::Paz arrives with Sera and Meredith. It's clear they're not waiting any more.::

(Well thanks Jas!)

::He juts out his jaw as he looks down the street.::

"Fun..."

"TAXI!"

::Meredith's already hailed one and they're piled in. She tells the driver the address.::

"... think we should have told Andrea?"

::Too late, they're off to the mansion.::

(What the...?)

:: Lirie gapes at the decently looking apartment complex before her, the cigarette dangling precariously from the corner of her mouth. She is convinced she took the right path from the beach, however the current building is so greatly differentiate from what she remembered, she begins to doubt herself. :

(On the other hand... two years have passed. Maybe they finally fried the Landlord.)

:: Squashing the spark of optimism instantly, she finishes her fag and enters the building, heading into the Proprietor's Office. ::

::Andrea pushes through the doors and jumps down the steps. She stands at the wall of the building and slams her hand into it, palm-heel.::

"Urgh!"

::She shouts to accentuate every strike, but her hands hurts too much to go at it for long. Turning around, she wipes the tears away and looks around. She calls for her girlfriend, her voice broken and high.::

"Julie..."

::Julie comes out of the building.::

"Andy."

::Andrea's head turns and she pushes herself away from the wall. She hurries over to Julie and sinks into her arms, burying her face into her shoulder and letting the tears fall.::

::Julie holds Andrea securely in her arms, kissing the top of her head.::

:: Lirie pauses just before the entrance door, noticing Andrea in an emotionally tattered state. She watches Julie hold onto her, trying to comfort the tears away, and recoils. She doesn't want to see this, doesn't want to be here now. Hoping they won't recognize her in her new scraggy state, Lirie cocks the collar up and hunches down, pushing the door and hurrying past them, heading to the magic shop in hopes that things hadn't changed there as much as around here. ::

"I don't know what she's doing here. I don't know what she wants."

::Andrea clings onto Julie, miserable and confused.::

"Don't leave me again."

"I won't, Andy. I'm here now. It's all going to be alright."

::Julie strokes Andrea's hair.::

::Eventually, Andrea manages to calm herself down. She pulls back and wipes her sticky hair from her face, sniffing a few times and getting her breathing back to normal.::

"I'm sorry, you probably don't need to see me react to her like this. I just got a shock. Seeing her like that."

"I understand, Andrea."

::Julie tucks Andrea's hair behind her ear.::

"Do you wanna get out of here?"

"Yeah."

"Where do you want to go, love?"

::Julie looks at Andrea with so much love in her eyes she might burst.::

(Poor thing.)

"Home. Not... here home... the other home..."

::Julies gives Andrea a short nod and leads her somewhere dark and empty. She kisses her forehead before blinking them to Their chambers.::

::Chloe walks out of the apartment building and continues to pace, not sure where she's going to go.::

(I have no fucking clue where Paz is and again, no fucking clue where Andrea is. What the hell can I do?)

::She makes herself stop pacing and sits on the curb.::

(Hunos... He was so kind... So intelligent. And he was mine. He was my blood. Why wouldn't he tell me? How did he die?)

::Her holds her head in her hands, trying to think of a solution outside of talking to Paz or Andrea. She sits for another five minutes before coming up with the best idea she can muster.::

(The Wiccan.)

::She stands with new determination and heads for the Magic Shop.::

::Chloe goes inside and heads to the Hallway.::

::Danika approaches and walks up the steps, not quite sure what to expect of the place. Things were changing fast and the quicker she took control of her life, the better it would be. She enters and steps quickly to the Office::

::After many hours of searching, Quinn arrives at the front entrance to the Black Point Apartments. It's his first time in San Francisco - and like any newcomer - the city seems massive at first glance.

And for Quinn, being as introverted as he is - it took a while to work out where to go. But he's finally here - ducking out of the midday snow as he walks to the Proprietor's Office.::

::Chloe approaches the front entrance on foot, having transformed in some... secluded area on the way. She enters and heads to the hallway.::

::Dith gets out of the taxi with Sera and they enter the building, going to the office.::

::The stingy, cold air hits Sera's flushed skin and causes her to wince as she steps outside of the complex. It's cold. But she doesn't want to go back, even though she feels she should.::

(I'm going to get the fucking inquisition later. Now... where? It's still fucking snowing; the beach is probably a mess and I don't really want to get cold, wet sand every-fucking-where. A drink sounds good... coffee? God, not the mall; it's a zoo at this time of year and I don't want to have to decapitate anyone due to irritation. Isn't there a tea place at the park? Never been there... I bet the snow's made the landscaping beautiful.)

::Sera sighs and starts to walk to the park, dragging and scuffing her feet through the snow.::

::For wanting to keep this magic crap a secret, opening portals like this could be mighty risky. With a sigh, Portia shakes her head and walks to the office.::

::Portia walks through the doors, heading outside and towards the streets with absolutely no clue where she was meaning to go.::

::Meredith finally exits the building after possibly a day of walking down the stairs. She gasps with the cold and pulls her coat more tightly around her. She's almost certain it's not supposed to snow here. But it is.::

(We could've gone for a walk together.)

::She grimaces and wonders what to do. Maybe a walk by herself would do her good. Some time alone to clear her head and forget Majora's visit. She's happier now. He was too unreliable, always disappearing for whatever reason. And besides... Dith smiles. She leaves to the streets for a wander before going somewhere perhaps more specific.::

"Aha, and here I am."

::Abby looks up at the name of the complex and gives herself a satisfied nod before going into the office.::

::Natasha's form wobbles in, a dark corner concealing her entrance. Satisfied, she steps out of the shadows and toward the front entrance. She is struck by all the snow... It's not something she's actually seen before in the upper world. Oh well! Her eyes fix on the front doors, and she makes a path to them, heading to the proprietor's office.::

::Nikki finds herself standing at the front entrance.::

"Better get this over with, then."

::She somehow manages to find herself in the right place, the office.::

::Danika walks out, keeping a look out for Quinn. Luckily for him, he's nowhere to be seen and she goes to the magic shop::
