Magneto storms through the door and stops. He looks like he'd been working himself up into a Grand High Dudgeon when Milliways interfered. He glared at nothing for a moment as if mentally getting one last word in, in an argument before closing his eyes and centering himself before he continues to the counter of the bar.

"Brandy, please. Something obscure, if you would."

A giant snifter appears on the counter and he dips his nose into it. With a delicate snif, he smiles slightly. "Thank you."

He takes the brandy and retires fire-ward. Once there, he stares into the mesmerising flames as he tries to forget what they want him to help them do.

He gives Magneto his best 'oh please' look. "I've been fighting them for forty thousand years, pal, I know not to fight more than one at a time. And I feel it bears pointing out that I have hundreds of siblings. I take out one- and they'll know it's me by the wound, there's not much that can kill one of us- I get the rest of them forming a nice, vicious hunting party. I believe in not getting myself into fights I don't stand a chance of winning."

(OOC: Sorry, incidentally. Had to go and have a screaming match discussion with the parentals, and then out.)

"Yeah? The only people who ever win those battles are heroes in fairytales. I'm not a hero, I'm just attempting to stay alive." When Sam fights, its only because he has to, or thinks he has to. Or convinces himself he has to.

He thinks about this. "Mostly. I'm the only one to spend so much time on Earth- probably because I'm the only one with a lack of choice in the matter- so I'm generally left more or less alone, these days. And I usually manage to enjoy myself. It's not Heaven but-" a shrug, "it could be worse."

He smiles a little. "Only occasionally."
