✨ video; oo1. un: pandemonium

[The video opens on Magnus, hair a little more mussed than usual, eyeliner in place but smudged, clearly working hard and distracted.]

Hello, everyone, I am Magnus Bane, and I have something of a dilemma.

[The camera swings around to a table with a small cauldron on it, a set of brass scales, and several small bottles and jars, most of them empty. Magnus appears again, keeping the bookshelf in view over his shoulder.]

Of course I brought my spellbook with me, and my brewing equipment—never trust a cauldron you haven't seasoned yourself—but where might one go to buy potion ingredients? I'm low on… [He looks over his shoulder, assessing the supplies he's brought with him.] ...saffron threads, vampire hair, grave dirt, lavender...well, everything. Space was at a premium and I'm afraid I couldn't bring my inventory with me.

[The phone comes with Magnus, floats with Magnus on a cloud of blue smoke, as he walks away from his brewing headquarters, and now in the background can be seen half-unpacked boxes, the walls hung with sweeping red and blue silks. There's stuff everywhere, far too much for the apartment's size, but the image steadies as Magnus turns again, sweeping out his arms.] I only need the basics for now. And if you need something, do let me know. No love potions, but I conjure up a wicked energy booster for mornings after. Or nights before.

[With a wink, Magnus snaps his fingers and the video ends in a colorful shimmer of light before the screen goes black.]

You sound like you would fit in well in Beacon Hills and by that I mean never come to Beacon Hills.

[She's pretty sure that spirits always wind up vengeful, and she's about done with people who decide to hedge their bets for dumb reasons.]

Well, Beacon Hills is the kind of town where a magical tree draws in all kinds of supernatural crap and constantly tries to kill us, so I figure if you're prepared for vengeful spirits, then you'd probably be prepared for whatever else it throws at us.

But you did see where I said you shouldn't come to Beacon Hills, right?

Yeah, that's what most people say. I've lived there my whole life.

It's not trying to kill me, so I already like it a lot more than home.

[So you know, it has that going for it.]

I was actually supposed to go to France before I got here, but that got postponed, so this is kind of like a compromise?

Well, it's not Beacon Hills. That's about all I really care about right now.
