*There was a knock at the door*
"Hallie? Renn?"

Hallie opened the door. "Mira! What's up?" she greeted.

"Hey guys!'
*She smiled as she came in and sat down, but there was clearly something troubling her.*
"Look, I just need to talk about this with someone- if you two aren't busy. Some really weird things have been going on, and I mean more than usual for the verse."

Hallie walked over to the crib and put her daughter down. She looked at Mira. "What's wrong?" she asked cautiously.

*Mira smiled and waved at the little girl, then turned serious*
"You know how I chose Helena Bonham Carter as my avi? I didn't give it much thought, since we look sort of alike except that she's prettier."
*She shifted in her seat*
"But ever since I saw the new Harry Potter movie- and no, I haven't finished number seven, so no spoilers if you have- weird stuff has been happening."

Her eyes widened—she hadn't finished the book yet, either, but she was far enough into it (not to mention she'd read the other books) to know that this was a problem.
"What's been happening?" she asked, wondering if this meant that the Sweeney Todd movie would cause more problems than Sweeneyboppers.

"Small things. Like, when I stubbed my toe, I started cursing and a flowerpot exploded."
*She turned red*
"Or, when I was auditioning, this girl in front of me made an anti-semitic comment, and she just lost her voice- it might have been Erik mistaking her for Carlotta, though."

"S-so... I guess you're a witch, then?" She grinned. "That's actually pretty cool! You can do magic and fly on broomstick and other stuff!"

"Well, I dunno. Maybe it's like SUperman being mortal on Krypton but powerful on Earth. Maybe those of us who used to be sueauthors are withches here."
*She rubbed her arm*
"Not sure why, but it's been hurting for the past few days."

"Odd," she said. "I don't think we're all necessarily witches. I mean, I made a 'fridge pop out of nowhere a while back, but that wasn't exactly magic. But maybe you're different, since you're using an actress as your character model." She looked at Mira's arm. "Hurting how, exactly?"

"Sore. Like somethings sort of growing on it. Probably just imagination."
*She giggled*
"Guess this makes me Dracula's cousin. Eww."

She snorted. "Stop turning Sirius in to Dracula! I happen to like that wizard, you know!"

*Mira grinned*
"So do I. I'm just teasing you."
*She shrugged*
"Weird stuff happens on the verse. My arm hurting and a pot blowing up really isn't that much."

"I know you were joking, goof," she teased back, thwapping her friend. "I'm sure your arm is nothing. Don't worry about it."
Hallie, however, was a little worried. She'd been in the 'verse long enough to know that little details like that always meant something.

*Mira struggled to change the subject*
"So how does it feel to be a mother?"
