[Well, sure, he doesn't have to worry about it. But it's not a sight that a man just forgets about, not when Stephen has seen such destruction wrought more than once in his own time. The argument can be made that it's none of his business, whatever's happened in this man's recollection, but... He's nosy. That's always been an unflagging trait of Doctor Stephen Strange.
To his credit, he lets it go. The fact that his name doesn't "ring any bells" doesn't appear to bruise his pride, and he shrugs a shoulder and walks a few steps further into the office.]
The magical kind, mostly. Lots of research when it's needed, lots of training for those looking to dip their toes into Abraxan magic. I'd like to keep finger on the pulse on the state of the Singularity, but sometimes that's hard to do from the Castle.
[Which isn't entirely true; the system of thaumametors painstakingly set-up in the past has at least made that a much easier job, or at least a much more feasible one. But Stephen doesn't see the logic in going straight into the nitty-gritty with someone he's just met.]
Basically, I'm a [wizard] sorcerer, Reno. I've been lucky to continue my craft from Earth to Abraxas.
[ Magic, huh? It's starting to feel like a bunch of people are real familiar with magic, the kind he keeps running across here where you wiggle your fingers and say some weird words and stuff happens.
He studies Stephen, expression suggesting some creaky wheels are moving in his head. ]
That's where all the magic comes from, right? The Singularity?
[ He's no scholar, but some connections aren't that hard to make. He's been working on it. Still, he'd rather just have someone deliver this shit to him in a few neat files instead of sourcing the information from a dozen different guys. ]
