Lucy whispered a few words to herself then opened the satchel, pulling out a medium sized tabby cat and setting it on her lap. The cat looks around, purring when Lucy’s hand strokes behind its ears. “That’s it, that’s what I’ve got to share.” She laughed softly and shrugged her shoulders loosely. Her eyes flicker one more to the other man and her smile falters in confusion, sensing a few of his thoughts before she forces herself to look back at Robin.

(May possibly have to go for a bit, 11:40 PM where I am and I have an extremely busy day tomorrow. If I don’t respond right away, I will get back to it as soon as possible!)
A cat. The girl sitting behind him had a cat. Maroon smiled and walked over, closing his computer, he pointed at the cat and grinned, a nice grin, something an actually sane person would do, "Cute cat!"
Bennett walked into the café, he liked this one, and had been coming here for weeks. There were a host of people.
"This is a surprise, I've never seen this place this packed." He said walking to the counter, he reached into his pockets, and pulled out a roll of bills.
"Let me get a nice mocha." He huffs.

Lucy looks over at the boy, feeling the energy coming off of him, and it causes her to stiffen. She could sense that there was something different about him, but she couldnt concentrate hard enough to dig into his mind. “Oh, thank you,” She gave him a polite smile, patting Lillian gently.
Robin gasped a bit at the sudden appearance of the cat, gingerly reaching out to stroke its ears. "Hello little guy, what's your name?"
(I'll pick IP the "interdemensional" part of the RP later, for now just socialize.)

(Alright.)
“That is Lillian.” She shifted her weight, closing the satchel and shutting it tightly before setting it next to her chair.
Maroon laughed, an entirely normal sound, yet so alien in his mouth. "I have a cat too." he pulled his wallet out and showed the girl a picture of his own cat, a huge, fluffy, white, Norwegian Forest cat. "He's cute, right? His name is Crescent."

Lucy smiled and flicked her eyes over the photo of the cat. “Very cute.”
She then holds her hand out to him. “Er- I’m Lucy Teller. You are?”
Maroon stiffened, he didn't like telling people his name. It felt like giving away a part of him. Nevertheless, he smiled and said, "Maroon. My name is Maroon." he pointed at his head, "Like my hair, but my hair is more of a bright red."

She nodded slowly and lowered her hand, seeing as he obviously wouldn’t shake it. She picked up Lillian and put her back into the satchel before shutting it and whispering softly to herself. She made a light smile and set the bag back down. Lucy fiddles with her fingers, thinking of something to say.
“Excuse me for a moment, Robin.”
She stands from the seat and latches her hand onto Maroon’s forearm, tugging him aside.
“What in God’s name are you?” Her tone is low and swift.
Maroon wrestled his arm out of her hand, "Something."
Bennett looked back at the two. He enjoyed humans and beings on their level, this was interesting.

Lucy’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Manete,” She mutters a word, most likely Latin, and he finds himself unable to move a muscle.
“So much more than something. You have a dark vibe coming from you, I can feel it.”
Maroon decreased his headphones volume with a single thought and felt his body loosen. He would have to do with no blood if it enabled him to move. "Why don't you leave me alone and we can go our separate ways?" he backed away and held up his hands, like no offense.
"Manete, eh? So you're a magic user?" Bennett says to the young lady. "Interesting."

She let out a scoff, breaking off the connection. She felt frustrated, and took a deep breath, taking her glasses off and rubbing at her nose. “Fine by me,” she said in a level tone. A headache began to form in the back of her skull and she stepped back to where her bag sat, digging through it.
"G-good." Maroon felt dizzy, being without blood for more than a minute left him weak and faint. He stumbled to his table, his vision blurry, and increased the volume of his headphones. The table lurched as he practically fell on top of it, feeling his heart, begging it to beat, begging his blood to start circulating.

Her eyes shifted to him as he almost collapsed and she frowned. She took a bottle of silver pills from her bag, paying no mind of the dosage of 2 pills only. She poured out a small handful, swallowing them with her coffee. She looked up at the other man. “I don’t know what you mean.”
Odette had not noticed the interaction, nor had she noticed the cat due to the fact that her muffin had arrived and stolen her attention. You see, sweet things were the girl's weakness - she simply couldn't resist them and distracted her completely. The muffin didn't last long and as Odette folded the wrapper onto the small plate she heard a loud thump. Now that she wasn't distracted, Odette gave out a loud gasp of shock.
"Manete, is a spell, correct?" Bennet inquired. "Are you or are you not a magic user?" He could probably just read her mind, but he didn't come to Earth to solve everything with his powers.
Maroon gasped as his pulse started throbbing and life was reintroduced to his system. He put a hand on the table to steady himself, and slowly stood up, his headphones drowning out the noise in the back. Feeling the steady beat, Maroon started to breathe normally and he put his black glasses back on after they'd fallen. He needed to get back to his lab, to start testing his prototype. Otherwise, he wouldn't have much too long to live.

Her mouth opened in disbelief and she quietly murmured, “How do you know that?” She stood to face him hesitantly.
"You said 'manete', as I remember it, that's a spell in this universe."

“Most people don’t know basic magic.. Who are you?” Lucy further questioned.
(Leaving for the night, will be around later.)
(OK…)
Odette got up from her seat, immediately beginning to worry - was the older boy alright? Could she possibly have something in her bag to help him? She walked promptly over to him, her hand digging into her bag in hopes of finding something of use at the same time, "S'cuse me, but, are you going to be alright? I saw you fall and I know that I'm a stranger but I do this thing where I worry a lot and if you need help I'd be glad to - it'd put my mind at ease and I… Oh goodness, I'm rambling again aren't I…" she said, her voice quickening as she continued to speak.
"I've been around." He says. "Magic is multiversal, trust me. I could show you if you like."
