Phantasm (Drago) has posed:
Well! Not even 1 in the afternoon and it's already been a day for Nick! After the odd exchange with the mechanic and brain eater, the musician has opted to just call it a day, take advantage of Wade having to work at the studio on a Sunday and go catch up on some sleep.

The Sunday attired, hair tied back musician gives a sigh, pulling out his keys and unlocks his door, swinging it open. First thing's first. Tea.

Doctor Strange has posed:
    Already seated in the house is one Doctor Strange, the air of the house feels different to Nick, someone's here and that feeling on the back of his neck would be more than obvious.

    Not really sitting, but in a seated position, the good doctor is floating in the middle of the main living room, having moved the coffee table out of the way to clear space, Strange seems to be meditating as he has his eyes closed and chin lowered to his chest as he floats cross legged.

    "I am aware you had an encounter today." Stephen says softly.

Phantasm (Drago) has posed:
The Tea soon forgotten as a presence that even NICK could feel sets him on alert. Hand still on the adjacent door, he cautiously looks in, the wall of the bathroom supplying the only blind spot in the studio layout. Fortunately, Strange has opted to position himself in a way where he slightly visible from Nick's cautionary position.

Nick lets out a breath he didn't even realize he was holding, shaking his head as he closes the door, stepping over to the kitchen to put the kettle on. "An encounter," Nick repeats, turning on the burner, "I suppose it was technically today."

He steps out of the kitchen, walking around the bathroom to look into the main living area, "So, was it the Spider-Tiger or the Dinosaur-Shark-Octopus that shot out electricity that made you decide on the house call?"

Doctor Strange has posed:
    "Spider-Tiger... Dinosaur-Shark-Octopus... I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say, but I suppose those a good a place to start as any." Stephen says, opening one of his eyes to look towards Nick and then furrows his brows. "Could you actually describe either of the creatures in more detail than saying kinds of animals?" Stephen asks, as he continues to float, half paying attention to Nick though it might feel like that it's even less than that.

Phantasm (Drago) has posed:
Nick looks over to Strange, giving a bit of a shrug, "Based from the giant test tube things in the one room, I'm guessing science experiment gone awry?" He sits down on the sofa, since Strange wasn't using it anyways. He reaches up to unbutton the second button of his dress shirt before leaning back, closing his eyes as he thinks back to them. "Spider-Tiger was about the size of a mountain dog. Looked like someone took a spider and merged it with a tiger. Half tiger legs, half spider legs, dripping venom, not a pleasant looking thing. Extremely agressive."

He sighs, "The big one was extremely tall. Maybe 30 foot. Tentacles, T-Rex head with shark teeth, T-Rex hands, generated lightning, which, I REALLY don't get how they got that from those three animals. ALSO agressive."

He pauses, "There was another tube but I think the others came across that one on the way to the giant one."

Doctor Strange has posed:
    "So not a tiger stripped spider or anything so arry, but like, a giant spider front sewn together with a rear..." Stephen says with a worried look in his brows.

    "And... sounds like there are some rather unusual chimeras being made." Stephen says with a frown as his hand lifts from his knee to his chin and tugs at a hair of his goatee. The wizard opens both his eyes and squints at Nick. "What happened to the other tube?"

Phantasm (Drago) has posed:
"Well, more like merged." Nick replies, "More like, test tube babies, things spliced together and then grown up in a lab."

He leans forward, pinching the bridge of his nose as he rewinds the fight in his head, grimacing at a few reminders. "There were more. But it looks like they were not- on. Three tubes were broken. I encountered two of them but there were two other people there fighting. I don't know what the middle sized one looked like. I think they came across it."

Doctor Strange has posed:
    "Do you know where this facility was?" Stephen asks rather forwardly, the idea should be easy enough to guess as to why Stephen wants to know.

Phantasm (Drago) has posed:
Nick shakes his head, "No. I ended up in there when someone woke up and grabbed the nearest dream I could to get out. Best I can say based from the jump count is under 300 miles from here."

His eyes open as he considers the situation, "But, the others would have gone out the normal way..." He considers aloud, "And I think I know where one of them will eventually go to."

Doctor Strange has posed:
    "As sorcerer supreme, this isn't something I can deal with, I have to rely on you and others to be able to protect the earth from those from earth." Stephen says with a look to Nick, as he continues to float in the air like nothing is wrong. "You may want to find Hogarth and or Illyana for some help." The wizard says.

Phantasm (Drago) has posed:
The dream traveler gives Strange a tired look. "So. You basically want us to go find the place again and have a look around but you can't directly state that because it's outside of your jurisdiction." Nick surmises, "Well, I just have to ask..."

The exhausted eyes look to Strange curiously. "Who the hell is Illyana, and can this wait until I get some sleep? Because I really have not been feeling myself lately and that's bad."

The tea kettle starts whistling. That is an efficient stove. Good stove. Good.

Doctor Strange has posed:
    "Take your time Nick, and Illyana is another mystic I'm aware of, she is quite powerful, though odd." Stephen admits before he opens both eyes towards Nick and nods once. "She may or may not help you, though I feel you would be best served with her abilities and headstrong attitude around." The wizard mentions before he seems to fold up in on himself and is suddenly no longer in the appartment and disappears.

Phantasm (Drago) has posed:
"Headstrong." Nick repeats as Strange disappears.

The travler frowns, glancing up at the ceiling as it's just as good a place as any. "Since when has Headstrong been a good thing?!"
