Then, she greeted Hunter.
"Hi! Do you want me to fix that clock?" she took the clock down and examined the back of it. "Yes, it's just been disturbed by a flyaway spell. But the spell must of been a few years ago, apparently it's been slowly deterioting..." She stopped.
"Likeiada", she muttered. "There, good as new." she said brightly and replaced it.
Hunter's mouth opened and closed as he watched Hannah seemingly fix the large clock. It was so strange, how much magic was used here. He stared at the clock warily. It seemed to be good as new...for about 10 seconds before it started wavering. Something was wrong. He looked around at all these clocks, having no idea what they did. He hadn't gotten briefed yet.

"Well, thanks for trying. I believe these clocks can not be fixed by regular means", he said confidently. How he managed to sound confident was beyond him at the moment.

His mother wasn't in a position to raise two young magicians. She'd not have lasted with him had his father not been there. She'd never be able to take care of Evie and Nate. Josie had already realized that and talked to him about it. He was their godfather...he'd take them in if something happened. But seven?

"As I said, impressive. I'm not sure I'd ever be able to do something like that." Blake stated and shook his head once. "Well if you and the kids are ever craving a good burger let me know. I'll come over and grill you some up." He offered, feeling a bit foolish about it...but not going back one way or another. He needed to make friends. He needed to form friendships with people if he was going to be living here. How would he make friends if he was constantly worried about sounding stupid?

"Its good to meet you, Hunter." Blake stated with a smile, then listened as he explained their job in this room. Then came the broken clock...Blake watched hesitantly as Addie stepped forward and examined the clock, fixing it without a second thought. "So what do all these clocks do? I'm assuming they are more than what they appear?" Blake stated, looking over at their Division Head.

Hunter gave Blake a tentative smile. Yes, these seemed like good people. He was glad to have them on board. "Yes, you're correct in that assumption. What specifically they do, I'm not sure yet as I haven't been fully briefed", he admitted a bit sheepishly. He would get there. Eventually. "But I imagine some of them control anything but time. Or rather, time for different things. For example, imagine having a clock count down the minutes of your life." Okay, that was morbid. Hunter couldn't help finding it fascinating though.

He looked back and forth between the two for a moment. He wanted to know more about them, of course. That way he would know what kind of assignments they could handle and whatnot. "So, tell me", he started, addressing them both. "What made you want to work in this room. And what do you expect to do here?" Yes, bluntness was always good.
