[So, phones and watches are... A lot. Heathcliff is a fast learner, at least, so while typing is a struggle he... Manages.

He also wants to know how these things work, but he has more important things to worry about right now.]

Hello? I might be wrong, but it seems like this is the easiest way to communicate with those who are in a similar situation.

My name is Heathcliff Blanchett. I'm a wizard from the East, if that sounds familiar to anyone, and I arrived quite recently. I have a few questions, though my main concerns are that I seem unable to perform my magic and that I don't have any of the currency used in this place.

If anyone has an explanation or advice, I would deeply appreciate it.

You'd be able to tinker with it, then? I advise to be careful all the same - just because they aren't made with magical science it does not mean that you should let down your guard all the same.

[ shylock still doesn't use his phone too often, for good reason. ]

Do you have somewhere to stay for the meantime? I'd ask my benefactor if I could let you in with me for a while until you find your footing.

[ojiya]

Potentially. I'm sure it's different from both magical science and the engineering of the East.

[Which is precisely why he wants to take it apart.]

Not currently, no, though you don't have to go that far for me.

[Just accept the free boarding, Heath.]

[breweries]

It's quite all right. In fact, he is replying to this very post as well.

[ hi johannes. <3 ]

And also, it'd be preferable if we could keep an eye on each other while we're here. This town isn't as it seems, as you can tell with our weakened powers at the moment. They do come back in due time, but at a rather slow pace.

Oh. His name is Johannes?

[It seems safe to assume!]

Okay. If you're sure it wouldn't be a burden on you and your benefactor.

[breweries]

It won't, so no need to worry your pretty face about it. He might actually enjoy more otherworldly company, come to think of it. He's rather eccentric for a human.

[ he's still blissfully unaware that johannes is murr... or is he? ]

[ojiya]

[He wants to be nice, but...

But...]

Eccentric like Murr or eccentric like Rustica?

[breweries]

Not putting in dear Chloe?

[ he can't help but chuckle. ]

He does remind me of Murr the most. He's an author of a series of books, loves to stare at the night sky, and can meow on command.

[ oh god ]
