There's a lot for the mages to think about.Tuesday evening everyone gets a text from Faye: 9:30 PM Wed. 4600 Horseshoe Ave. Google searches reveal that to be an address in Gilbert, a city in the southeastern corner of the Phoenix metro area, a conglomeration of over 20 such cities clustered around Phoenix. The drive from Nazareth is about 40 minutes, so to make it in time the group would have to leave just before 9:00 PM. It's probably assumed by everyone that the group will meet up at Nazareth Secondhand Books and that either Law or Chance will be providing a lift.Feel welcome to describe how your characters spend Monday and Tuesday.AgnasciAgnasci wakes to the smell of weed and when he opens his eyes his vision is dominated by a pair of women's feet.He's on BR's ratty couch surrounded by the beer cans the two men emptied the previous night. One of the two escorts Big Rich called over for the two of them is in a nearby armchair with her feet up on the coffee table. The vaguely multiracial woman in the living room with Agnasci is apparently named Genesis and she lives twenty minutes away in Apache Junction. She isn't particularly attractive in the conventional sense, but more handsome and she has a certain statuesque quality. The room smells strongly of the weed she'd brought with her. She's smoking a joint and watching CBS's Good Morning America on the television - Robin Roberts is interviewing the author of a series of cookbooks. Agnasci checks the time on his phone. 8:26 AM, Wednesday the 8th of January, 2014.There's a fluuuushhhh followed by the sound of the opening of the bathroom door out in the hall. A moment later Big Rich is in the living room with Agnasci and Genesis, wearing only a black do-rag and a pair of boxers. His huge gut, thick limbs, and farmer's tan make him look like a tattooed cross between a gorilla and a lumberjack. "You're still here?" he demands of Genesis."Let me finish this interview," she responds without looking away from the television.BR grunts and makes his way into the kitchen where stacks of dirty dishes and fast food containers are piled up everywhere. He returns to the living room with a beer in hand, cracking it open before taking a long sip and going to stand by the armchair. "Get out of my chair."Agnasci sits up groggily when Genesis makes to drop onto the couch beside him. Big Rich watches the show for about ten seconds before frowning. "What the hell is this?" He looks around. "Where's the remote?""I'm watching this.""Show's over," he growls, his paper-thin patience already spent. "Get out of here." He finds the remote on the coffee table and flips through channels. Genesis sits up with a sigh and puts on her shoes. "Call me," she says to either of them before leaving out the front door with her joint still in hand.BR stops on a documentary about prison gangs and takes another sip of his beer. "I've got business to take care of. After that I'll be heading over." He's referring to the get together the Dogs of War are having. "Should start around noon. It's walking distance from here so you can meet me there." He takes another sip. "Head south down 15th," that's the road in western Nazareth that BR's apartment is on, "and head west on Longstreet. It'll be the house with all the bikes. Just head into the backyard."</blockquote>
