Speaker 2
That would be nice! I am an artist, love both painting and music.
Speaker 1
Okay. I just finished working on a project that could teleport.
Speaker 2
No way!! So cool! I rather live a simple life with my arts and just get by.
Speaker 1
I bet if you get on this one, you could see the world faster.
Speaker 2
I'd love to! So I can meet all kinds of people! I am a people lover.
Speaker 1
Of course yes and maybe you can try my time machine too.
Speaker 2
That would be wild! Thank you for the offer!
Speaker 1
You can probably visit some people in the future.
Speaker 2
Maybe future me? Is that possible?
Speaker 1

Wouldn't that be nice. I'd write a music about that.

Speaker 1
Guess where I teleported to?
Speaker 2
Where you did end up teleporting to?
Speaker 1
I teleported to the grocery store and bought some bread. It kinda smells off now though.
Speaker 2
How did you learn to teleport?
Speaker 1
I read mystic stones and one of my familiars came through the ether and showed me how its done.
Speaker 2
Wow! Do you think you can teach me?
Speaker 1
I would have to apprentice you in the craft first and then attain Ga'el's permission to introduce you to the familiar Jer'reauxome.
Speaker 2
It would mean the world to me if you went ahead and did that!
Speaker 1
I think Jer'reauxome (Jerome) would approve of you and allow you to follow the path of enlightenment to attain the master of attaing food stuffs with great haste.
Speaker 2
Jerome sounds like an interesting character!
Speaker 1
Jer'reauxome shares the sentiment with the mortal world and would welcome any person or being tat would want to expand their knowledge of the ether realm. He gets very bored and would like to share his wisdom of his travels.
Speaker 2
The wisdom of his travels? I'm listening.

Speaker 1
I spoke to Jerome about you becoming an apprentice and they think it's a grand idea. When can you start training? It is very intense at first, be warned.
Speaker 2
Anytime that he wants. I will put my whole life on hold to learn about this. It's a big dream of mine!
Speaker 1
You will need to be completely devoted.  He can meet you this weekend at the cave in the hills above his home.
Speaker 2
I'll be there, without question. Do you have any idea what he'll teach me first? 
Speaker 1
For sure, he always starts with teaching a new pupil how to levitate.  
Speaker 2
Amazing! Simply amazing! I'm so lucky to have been accepted by him to be an apprentice. Is there anything special that I should bring?
Speaker 1
Yes, please bring a chicken parmagiana sandwich for Jerome.  
Speaker 2
Will do. I know an amazing Italian restaurant around here that serves a Chicken Parm sandwich to die for! Are you all done with your training with Jerome?
Speaker 1
For now yes.  I need to go on my journey first before I begin my second phase.
Speaker 2
Kind of like a spiritual journey? Like what some Indian tribes require of their young braves?
Speaker 1
Yes, very similar.  When I return Jerome will begin teaching me psychokinesis. 
Speaker 2
I've heard of telekinesis, but I've never heard of psychokinesis. What is that? It's ok if you can't tell me since I've not yet started training with Jerome. I'm just curious.

I have been practicing levitating and it is truly an amazing experience.  I can't wait until you learn how to do it too.
Speaker 2
I know! We talked about it last time and I really want to learn!
Speaker 1
It's truly amazing. Life-altering. I'll see if I can get you hooked up with Jerome.
Speaker 2
Did you tell Jerome that I have some free time right now? And that i would be a good student?
Speaker 1
I did, but his schedule is so tight. He's slowly going through candidates for his apprenticeship. He says he just gets a sense about people when he meets them. I'll see if he can meet with you soon. What day would work best?
Speaker 2
I appreciate you doing that. Pretty much any weekday in the afternoon would work great for me. 
Speaker 1
Cool, no problem. I'll let you know. On another subject, I'm hungry. What's your plan for food later on?
Speaker 2
You know me, I was probably going to get some Italian. Do you want to go to The Italian Place?
Speaker 1
Yes! If only I could figure out how to teleport there effectively I'd go right now. I'm starving. I want some good ravioli. Or gnocchi.
Speaker 2
Isn't your teleportation machine in operation? I thought you might be able to just buzz over.
Speaker 1
I'm still trying to iron out some kinks. A few days ago I tried to go to my mom's house and I wound up in the middle of Central Park. Not perfect yet.
Speaker 2
Hey but Juliana's is a great Italian food restaurant there in NYC!

Speaker 1
Did Jerome reach out to you?
Speaker 2
Yeah, he did I'm going to meet up with him tomorrow and discuss the apprenticeship. Thanks for reaching out to him for me!
Speaker 1
Of course. Ugh. I hate to say this, but a lot has come out about Jerome over the last couple of days. Have you seen any of the Magician's World tabloids?
Speaker 2
No, what happened? Is it something serious?
Speaker 1
Ummm, yeah. It is coming to light that he may be involved in a handful of homicides in a small town in Ohio. I don't know what is true and what is not. They haven't made an arrest. Shocking and a little scary he is planning to meet with you during all of this.
Speaker 2
WHAT? We made plans two days ago and I haven't heard from him since. I should probably reschedule and wait to see if he's involved. There's no way I'm going now.
Speaker 1
Yeah, definitely do not go. It is all linked to his work in magic. Apparently he has had many assistance die on his watch. And his parents and a girlfriend. 
Speaker 2
Oh god, that's terrifying. Forget the rescheduling I need to block his number. I'm so glad I never told him my address. How are you holding up, you actually trained with the guy?
Speaker 1
Assistants*. I am ok. A little intrigued to be honest, but then I think about the time he let me pass out when doing an underwater trick and wonder if I should have been one of his victims.  
Speaker 2
Whhhhaat? That's horrifying, does he know where you live? If he hasn't been arrested who knows what he might do. Intrigued? I dont know if I should be worried or horrified.
Speaker 1
I have not come forward with that info yet. I am afraid to until he is behind bars, but I feel wrong holding it in. What would you do?
Speaker 2
I would probably let someone know, but I definitely wouldn't go back home until he's arrested.
