I13DT: Two Goddesses Walk Into a Bar...

Though many students might prefer going to London, Maldon provides closer amenities for those without a car or unwilling to pay for a cab. Several pubs are available, though the Rose and Crown is notable for having been where Excalibur spent a good deal of their downtime. Also of note is the Plume Library, home to many rare books.

"Don't worry, Kevin," Mira was saying. "My friends are nice; there's no need to be nervous."

Beknownst to Kevin, they were going to Le Bouchon for dinner. Beknownst to Kevin was the presence of Mira's friends.

Unbeknownst to Kevin, said friends were the headmistress of the university and the defense of the dark arts language teacher.

Nailah and Sam are waiting just inside, the hint of a pleased smirk showing on the Sphinx' face upon seeing Kevin.

"Good evening, Kevin, Altamira." her expression broadens into a smile.

"Well by definition pleasant is better," Kevin said as he too sat.

"So... two goddesses, a sorceress, and a chef walk into a French restaurant."

Kevin really didn't want to intrude on any developing insult swordfight, lest he end up skewered on the end of a stray disparagement.
