[Video - re-introduction]

[thegreatergood]

[For a long few moments a familiar face is gazing out from the screen, just silently watching as if waiting for something. After a time he finally speaks.]

I really hadn't expected to be seeing this place again.

[He doesn't sound altogether pleased by this turn of events.]

[bloodyaria]

You've been here before?

[Man that does not make her happy]

[ video ]

[thegreatergood]

Yes. Some months ago.

[ video ]

[bloodyaria]

Then how did you leave?

[ video ]

[thegreatergood]

I hadn't intended to leave when I did. I was exploring beyond the ruins and then I was suddenly back in my world again.

[ video ]

[bloodyaria]

So we just have to go out there? That sounds easy.

[ video ]

[thegreatergood]

I do not think that it always works that way.

Others, I believe, simply get lost or may even be killed.

[Lucius supposes that it could be worse. The Door could have brought an older, more dangerous Grindelwald back through it. One who was trying to recruit followers. Ahaha. No thank you.]

Gellert. My condolences.

Video

[thegreatergood]

Herr Malfoy? Is that you?

Video

[purityconquered]

Yes, I am still here as well. Unfortunately.

Video

[thegreatergood]

I am unsure if seeing familiar faces is a blessing or a curse.

Video

[purityconquered]

A little of both, perhaps.

Video

[thegreatergood]

Has anything changed?

[nolessthanseven]

[she's certainly pleased to see him. But he's not really all that pleased to be here. This feels one-sided, somehow.]

I don't think anyone expects to.

[thegreatergood]

[He actually brightens upon seeing her.]

Fraulein! It is wonderful to see your face again.

video

[nolessthanseven]

[...oh, that's better. Now she doesn't feel quite as bad about being happy he's back!]

Hey there. Yours too. It's been a while.

video

[thegreatergood]

A few months. Unless time has move differently here.

How have you been?

video

[nolessthanseven]

No, it's been about that.

Oh, you know. Dealing. [sort of a heavy topic to get into right off the bat, so she just shrugs.] What about you?

video

[thegreatergood]

Somewhat frustrated since I was sure I was on the right track to finding what I had long been searching for.

[He lets out a brief sigh.]

But this detour is looking much more pleasant now that I see you are still here.

[There's that charm returning.]

[highwarlock]

Nor did I. [ He smiles. ] But it looks like we've both been dragged back, willing or not.

[thegreatergood]

Oh? Were you also sent home briefly?

[highwarlock]

Briefly. Only about a month, apparently.

[thegreatergood]

It has been a few months for me.

It is good to see you.... Magnus, wasn't it?

[highwarlock]

Strange, how time works between worlds.

[ He flashes a grin. ] It was. Still is, actually. It's good to see you, too.

[bibliophile_annex]

Gellert! When did you -

Where are you? Are you alright?

[Video]

[thegreatergood]

If being back here is alright.

[He doesn't sound very pleased.]
