Magic/Support Reserves Meeting, The Preserve, Wednesday Afternoon

Raven was just a little nervous to start the reserves meeting. She'd gotten more used to speaking up in class, but talking in front of a group of people who were all looking at her was a different story. A gentle nudge from Karla had been necessary to get her to step forward and begin to speak.

"Many of us here -- not all, I know -- prefer to avoid the fighting for our own reasons," Raven said. "For instance, I am a pacifist, and as an empath, the emotions that arise during combat are often very uncomfortable for me. I will deal with such things when I must heal someone, but I do not belong in the front lines of combat.

"But for those who are engaged in a fight, whether magically or physically, it is best not to do so blindly. When something invades Fandom, we must find out everything about it so that we know how to best repel the attack, and that is where we can provide much needed support. Some of us have abilities to use various forms of divination, be it tarot cards or crystal balls or prophetic dreams. Others are skilled with a computer or are more at home with books, and may have access to information that the rest of us do not.

"Today we would like to talk about what abilities, either magical or mundane, each of us have for researching threats to Fandom. For instance, I sometimes have prophetic dreams of the future, but I know very little about computers. I am just beginning to learn to use one." Just wait 'til she found Rumor Gal fanfic.

That bit of bragging got a bit of muffin thrown at him.

Peter was somewhat surprised to see a muffin coming his way, and jerked to the side though it still hit him in the shoulder.

Then he saw who threw it and he chuckled. "Hey, I said probably. I left open the possibility someone else was."

"Guess we know who's got the biggest ego," Tim grinned.

"In an emergency, it works as a flotation device," Peter joked.

"We can all gather under it in case of rain," Tim suggested.

"I think you're better off with an umbrella, there," Peter said. "My ego rises proud and tall. Not exactly a make-shift shelter."

Hey, he could do this all day.
