[ Technically, magic isn't Peter's forte. He's supernatural, sure, and while he's inherently magical, he can't perform it in the strictest sense. But what people seldom seem to realise is that magic is so much more than Harry Potter— waving a wand, saying an incantation, the whole shebang.

There's magic in ritual. Power in seasons, in the turn of the earth. Knowing random pieces of esoteric knowledge like that was how he brought himself back to life.

Curiosity is what brings him here to the research institute. Riverview has its similarities with its own world, but also its differences. Magic might be one of them, and where better to get an idea of that than here? (Plus, he's been sitting idle for a while now. Bored.)

So he walks into Gramarye Magic Research, and quite literally runs into Margo. ]

[ As far as jobs go, Margo was pretty lucky landing one at Gramarye. She knows it, too. While back home she might have had a laissez-faire attitude about work, here she shows up on time and does what is asked of her every day.

It isn’t home and she isn’t working with the people she loves, but she does love flaunting her strengths and there is no better way to do that than through magic. After all, Margo is a gifted witch. So, if she can flatter her ego and help the residents of Riverview? Why not?

She’s carrying an especially old text when someone unexpectedly runs into her. The thing nearly topples to the ground, threatening its binding, but Margo gasps and makes a few lightning quick hand gestures suspending it in midair inches from the ground. Slowly, she lifts her hands and takes the text back into her arms very gently.

Margo tilts her head at Peter, suddenly composed, and sighs, smiling only a little bit. ]


And what brings you here?
