[Finally, after all this time! Mulder has found that much-desired basketball. He's in luck too, as it's well-inflated, not a sign of wear or tear on it. Too many times, he's come across half-deflated or otherwise messed up ones. But this one is perfect. It's as if there's finally some compensation for all the usual rounds of disappearances and so on. He's really needed this. He starts dribbling the ball right as he leaves the shop and continues bouncing the thing everywhere he goes throughout the day. It can also be heard in the background of his voice transmission.]

Does anyone have any unique birthday traditions they care to share? I wonder how similar these traditions might be between the worlds... Let's just say I'm curious, for purely theoretical reasons.

...By the way, is there anyone out there who'd be up for shooting some hoops or even getting together a pick-up game of basketball? Of course, we'd actually need to throw together a hoop somehow first, but minor details! If you've never played before, I promise I'll go easy on you.

[Moving along to keep attempting to block.]

So... if all the demons were destroyed, how did humanity manage to survive?

[makeitquick]

Prob 'cus we lost magic. Demons don't like it when there isn't any.

[Okay, still feinting around... and now she just goes for two pointer]

[ufo-fanboy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's the same in my experience of them.

[He watches, ready and will move in and get the ball after it goes through.]

So your world is completely devoid of magic now? What's that like?

[makeitquick]

[Okay, defensive switch. She'll keep on him-]

Was without it for two cen. Just comin' back now. Hence me.

[Going along, looking for another good opportunity-]

So magic returns, suddenly the forces of evil once more stalks the earth... and your power awakens too?

[makeitquick]

You got it.

[Hm. Keeping track of him - he's athletic, that's for sure. Still, just a normal person]

[Which of course is making it a challenge- more than usual against regular people back home. He'll probably wear down a bit faster than normal at this pace... but no matter, since it'll be a good workout. Mulder takes another shot, to sink it. Phew.]

Well. I hope you're able to get back and deal with all of that eventually. It sounds like you have a lot of work ahead of you.

[makeitquick]

Prob, yeah. [A beat, and then she'll go for another point. there's a bit of a grim expression]

Gotta finish things.

[He watches for the ball to grab it once it's through.]

It seems like a lot of people are taken from inconvenient times... so many things left unfinished...

[makeitquick]

[...]

Never a convenient time to go missing from home.

[Ok, so there's no arguing that.]

No. There isn't. That's the worst part about this, people being separated from their loved ones.
