[ Would you look at that, it's Dr. Strange. He's dressed in his trusty blue uniform robes in an effort to look like somebody who knows what he's talking about, and the Cloak hovers in the background just over his right shoulder to add some additional authenticity. Those who were inside it recently might recognise the drawing room of a certain house, looking a little less moth-eaten than the last time it was overrun with metas, save for a couple of lingering dust sheets and the ominously dark corner where burning amber symbols sear into the black. ]
My name is Dr. Stephen Strange. I'd like to issue a reminder to those of you unfamiliar with it that magic is not a toy, or to be used lightly by those with minimal experience.
If you come across a magical artifact, relinquish it to somebody who knows what they're doing. If you notice something that might be a spell scribbled on a stall wall, do not start reading it aloud. Magic may be more accessible here than in some worlds, but that doesn't make it any safer to interact with untrained. If you don't understand it, leave it alone or speak to someone who does.
If you have questions or run into problems that you believe to be of a magical, mystical or otherwise arcane nature and you don't have a sorcerer on speed dial, you can contact me at this account.
Be safe, be sensible, and if you're interested in magic do yourself a favor and read some theory before you attempt to practice.
[ And with that, he cuts the feed. This has been a public service announcement / mild self-promotion brought to you by his endeavour to magically spring clean this accursed house. Please do magic responsibly. ]

i'm not in any classes about magic tho since i'm just some dude ig
[ This is bullshit and they both know he's not just some dude, but he didn't make this thread private yet. ]
maybe there's an elective i can grab or something
or some ironic recommended reading
aaand private.
private, GOOD CALL
bc i would seriously rather not ever have anything to do with magic ever again
but i guess knowing how to recognise something threatening and magical is a good life skill
they better let me graduate this semester but it's not like regular school so considering what happened maybe they'll be like yes please take magic classes before we all die lol
private indefinitely, undercover chatz
Learning some basic awareness should stand you in good stead to avoid having to though, yeah.
If they do let you graduate, you still need to learn. Make sure to get in contact.
no subject
but why don't you just teach me? i mean i trust you more than some random people
you already know my secrets and you're only NOT sorcerer supreme back home on a technicality right?
[ WHOOPS does Stephen know Peter knows that? oh well. ]
so you're the best person to ask

Preparatory reading.

ok i'll check the library and get back to you once i read through some of that
[ If Stephen thinks Peter is going to either fuck off about this OR forget, he's wrong. Peter is very invested in not causing yet another magical disaster. He's also an incredibly smart person and a huge nerd. What else is he doing with his time when he's not at school or being Spider-Man? You'd think sleeping like a regular person but...not as much as he should. ]

[ Sadly for his dawning realisation that he's somehow made a teacher of himself, he absolutely does not doubt he'll be hearing from him very soon. ]
