::Erin is dressed in 'going out' clothes, clearly having been pulled away from a staff night out to introduce this disgusting n00b. She sighs and waits for Portia to appear in a whisper of orbs.::

"Sup bitchesssssss!?"

::Portia blinks.::

"Get crunk?"

"I was going to, but you're bloody making me miss the party."

::Erin puts her hands on her hips.::

"Right, you've got the power of suggestion. Basically, you need to make eye contact with your... victim, and put in bold the action you want them to take. Let me show you."

::She stares into Portia's eyes, willing her to bark like a dog.::

::And so she does.::

"Bark bark bark!"

::Portia quickly lifts a hand up to her mouth.::

(Whoa...See, if I wasn't barking, it would be kind of cool...)

::Thinking ahead, Portia lowers her hand and looks into Erin's eyes, attempting to make her meow like a cat.::

"You'd be so lucky."

::She shakes her head at the girl::

"But you have the right idea."

::Portia shrugs, crossing her arms over her chest.::

"So, what am I? Some freak from a comic book?"

"You're in a world of magic, not science. You live how you want. As magical or as normal as you want. No comic books though. And don't let the normals find out."

"Sounds good to me. So...this magic stuff. Does that make me a witch? Cuz I suck at rhyming."

(As long as I don't have to run around in a skimpy leather outfit, I'm fine.)

"You're not a witch. You're basically a human with powers. You can probably do a few other tricks to, but generally spellcasting isn't featured. You never know though."

"Sweet. As long as I don't break out in warts, I'm chill."

::She then uncrosses her arms.::

"So, where do I go now?"

"Beach or Black Point Apartments."

::She gestures at two portals::

"I'm pretty sure I'm going to need a place to stay. You can go back to your party now."

::Portia says, heading into the Black Point Apartments portal.::

"You're damn fucking right I will."

::And she does::
