  [He's not going to ask. He's not even going to comment or act like anything happened at all. He's just got a bad arm the deal with and-

It didn't disappear is the problem. Jim figured it would just melt away but the Unicorn was still there asking for attention.]


Does anybody know of any stables about?

  [He got hurt. Wasn't as bad as it could have been but there were a lot of them and magic doesn't give you the technical skills to handle ten blokes, who seemed to be having a bloody surreal day, all at once when you're high on nothing but night. They'd kicked him while he was down and it was only when one of them muttered out about the age this kid had to be that they stopped. He'd looked them all in the eyes and tried to remember what ordinary breathing felt like.

Stupid ribs.

Somethings were healing weird. Wouldn't need hospital but weird. So it was all coughing and bed rest until the magic decided to stop being stingy and difficult.

Jim chalked it up to an off day. Doesn't think about the bracelet still on his wrist. Because last time he tried to remove the thing it almost ripped off his skin. And it hummed. So he doesn't think about it. Nope. He arrives to work on time for once. He paints miniatures. He doesn't think about it.]


Distractions!

Yeah.

An Irishman walks into a bar, and tells the bartender "I'll have three rounds, all at once." So the bartender gets his order but says to the man "Sir, you'd enjoy them better sir if I served them to you one at a time." The Irishman replies "No, its a tradition. Back in Dublin, my brothers and I would all go to the pub and have a round together. I moved over here a few years ago but I still keep the tradition." Touched by the story, the bartender served the rounds, and went about his business. The Irishman returned for several nights. One night, the Irishman comes in and only orders two rounds. The bartender shaken, asks "what happened? Did one of your brothers die? "The Irishman laughed and replied, "No, I quit drinking!"

  [Market's here and that means super-heroics are shifted to the back for a while- until Jim can turn the corner without expecting a Merchant to come out and shout 'boo'. He'll poke at journals and focus on work and do the best he can.]

Dear Mrs. Greene,

I'm really sorry that your package didn't get there fast enough and I gave you bad news back, yeah. You still need to pay the messenger.

If you keep hitting me with your umbrella it's going to break.

  Token Warning is a terrible superhero name.

It makes it sound like I'm public service announcement.

Or really into weed.

... Still like it, yeah.

[And so begins the doodling on the magical page- not of costumes or capes but of business cards designs.]

  Is it better to break an arm or a leg?

Nope. Is it better to get two hours of bloody sleep or none?

Do most magic people even need sleep?

  [Inane observations are a go. The person asking about magical twitter would be so proud. But honestly, as far as he could tell, why would you tell these people anything real? Don't seem exactly private.]

Some blokes just can't take a punch.
