After a short walk across the street to Alice's house, Justin rang the bell and waited with slight apprehension. America had mentioned that Alice was 'creepy' and that he'd tuned her out when she began talking about death and demons. Justin hoped that meant she executed demons, rather than being one herself. As long as that was the case, there would be no problems. He was used to dealing with all sorts of people - the thumping beat in his ears from his headphones helped with that, as did prayer. O Lord, help guide us to unite against our common enemy, he quickly thought as he heard movement from inside.

For her part, Alice was fairly oblivious about what any of the people visiting her were situated with. When she opened the door, she observed the rather interesting person with some sort of listening device in his ear.

"How nice to meet you. I am Alice," she said. "Please come in and pour yourself a cup of tea. It's Darjeeling. We have much to discuss."

Some time later, Norway arrives at the porch--It wasn't that he lived on the other end of the street, more like practically next door, he just had things to take care of before he went anywhere. Like making a fresh pot of coffee and taking his caffeine intake for the day. He wouldn't want to get cranky during something that was this important, after all. He stares at the door for a few seconds, and then he just lightly raps his knuckles on it.]

Alice gave a short smile: she was fairly bad at doing that without looking scary, she knew that. She walked over to the door and opened it, giving the person there a polite bow. He seemed pretty...well, he was a bit hard to place, really.

"Hello, I am Alice. Good to meet you! Who might you be?"

"Norway. I'm er..." He never was too much of a social person, so interacting with strangers was as foreign as a Caveman in modern times. Purely out of a nervous habit, he fiddles with his hair clip. "I live across the street, actually."

"Come on in," Alice said, not kindly but not with her usual cold nature either: it was not a time to act uncivilized, especially when these people were here to give her aid. The name was a bit daunting, but she had heard of similar people in this world anyway.

"Make yourself comfortable," Alice said, "But please have a bit of tea. I find that the best laid plans are discussed best over a snack and a bit of tea. It's a trait from my world I simply can't give up."

She motioned to the other person. "Please introduce yourselves to each other."

Sorry! n.n; I had to go somewhere the past couple of days, then was doing the event, etc.

"I'm delighted to meet you as well, Alice, and thank you for the refreshments. Ahh... I'm Justin Law. Norway and I have spoken on the phone before."

He nodded politely to the other blonde, glad to be meeting him in person, and sat down with some tea. Justin took a brief moment to consider what to talk about.

"First of all, how long have the both of you been living in Mayfield?"

This question would help to see who had the most information on what kind of situations they would be dealing with. If one of them had been there longer than Justin, they might have some knowledge that he was lacking. Likewise, if one was newer, it might be a good idea to go into more detail about certain things they may have missed. He expected they would put their heads together to develop strategies for similar occasions, and even to anticipate ahead if possible.
