<span style="font-family:Calligraffitti">Quentin looked between his four well five, if you include Poppy, friends, glad that they were the only ones left at Brakebills. What he was about to tell them was something that would be dangerous if their other classmates had remained at the University. He got to his feet as well, and faced Eliot, Margo, Kady, Julia and Poppy. "Yes, I have magic. Tick gave it to me the last time I saw him. He's been hiding it for a few months now, from the Fairy Queen and her people, and from mostly everyone else. I haven't used it until just now, when I was, well, upstairs smoking." <br/>
<br/>
He didn't feel comfortable talking about what had happened with Eliot in front of Kady, Julia and Poppy. Sure, Margo knew, but only because she had barged in on the two of them.. "Between the two of us with limited magic, I'm not sure what Julia and I can do to help everyone else get it back." He fell silent when Eliot began to speak, and nodded at the other man's words. "We're with you, El. We all agree. But what can we do? I mean, we'll keep trying to get the rest of the keys. But what do we do if that doesn't work? We need a backup plan." He ran an exhausted hand through his dark hair.<br/>
<br/>
Then Quentin glanced at each and every one of his five friends. "Maybe we could put out some kind of ad and find more people that still have magic. We can find others that have it, and all of us put our minds together and come up with something. We'll need to split up into groups. There's six of us left with Penny out doing his thing. I think Eliot and I should be one group, Margo and Julia in another, and Kady and Poppy in the last group. Eliot and I will keep looking for the keys. Margo and Julia can put out the ad looking for others that still have magic. And Kady and Poppy will talk to McAllister and try to get her to hold off on bulldozing the University."<br/>

Margo looked between everyone that was in the living room of the Physical cottage with her. "Whatever we're gonna do, we need to do it right the fuck now. I don't want Fillory to fall into the wrong hands while Eliot and I are gone." She sighed and listened as both Eliot and Quentin spoke and then she said, "No, I don't think it's a good idea for you and Eliot to keep searching for the keys together. I should be with him searching for the key,s and you should pair up with Julia and put the ad out. to find any other magicians with magic. We'll also need to figure out what to do with Alice."</span>
