First Visit

She's walked into some odd things during fits of abstraction (a lamppost and Sherlock Holmes, to name just two), but as Mary Russell lowers her book and peers around her, it becomes apparent that this is no Oxford pub, and she wonders what, exactly, her penchant for perambulatory reading has gotten her into this time.

She notices the oddly dressed young man, the pretty young thing in Greek costume, the man with smoked glasses and...is that a tail? It's gone when she looks again. Then her gaze strays to the window and her eyes widen.

It seems that the paper on apocalyptic prophecy will require some extensive revision.

*Mary looks outside to estimate the time, realizes again that the universe is ending, and checks her watch.*

I do apologise, but I need to be getting back. It was a pleasure to meet you, Elaine.

"It was lovely to meet you, as well. I hope you get home safely." Elaine smiles.
