I don't think so. If they do, we can just hang out in my room.

[ nods as he leads them to the door. ]

Just wanted to check, but yeah hanging out in your room is better anyway.

[giving the bunny one last pet as they go! and then off to sun sign yay]

[ off to sun sign they go!!! i'm going to pretend that it's quick because they're all in the same hall anyway. wow, yay, we're at sun sign - ]

Do you know how many you have? Or, how many you want to look at?

[opening up as they get there to let him in]

Just two. Did you just have the one?

[ nodding as he follows along, ]

Yeah, just the one. The last couple have been powers, like when I change the train a little?

Can I ask which specific ones?

[heading back to his room once he's inside]

[ follows him with a shake of his head, ]

Still figuring it out? The telepathy stuff was first, hearing stuff and moving stuff with my mind? More the former than the latter. I can change the appearance of items and rooms a little now and I think yesterday's was actual spellcasting?

They don't exactly tell you and it doesn't feel like it's all back or anything.

[ when they're in his room he'll move to sit on the edge of his bed as he waits ]

Is it insensitive if I say that's cool...?

[going to his dresser to pull out a button and a cup]

[ laughs a little as he watches, ]

Definitely not, I still think magic is cool even if it's complicated.

[ tilting his head. ] You need a drink for the cup, right?

[giving a nod]

Yeah. I guess we could head to the lounge after the first one? I didn't quite think about that.

Yeah, we can always get something to eat while we're there or something. I'm sure you won't say no to pizza.

I will never say no to pizza.

[setting the button down, though]

Feels weird to say ready when you are if I'm the one watching it, but - you know what I mean.

How about this -

[ offers his hand to hold with his free hand if he wants, ]

Whenever you're ready.

[taking his hand with a grateful smile before he presses the button! and then pauses for a moment, going a little red.]

...Okay. Not bad, just - a lot.

[ noting the going a red with a tilt of his head. ]

A lot in a good way?

—Not in the way you might be thinking.

I'm not thinking anything specific, but now you have me curious.

It's embarrassing so you have to promise not to make fun of me.

[ just more curious: ]

I'm sure it's not that embarrassing, but I promise.

[hands him the button with a groan]

Seriously, that bad?

[ A touch teasing as he glances between him and the button - and decides he wouldn't offer without meaning it so he presses the button. ]

[ oh. ]

It's sweet.

[ sincerely without teasing even if there is more amused thoughts.]

[plonks his head onto phoenix's shoulder]

Every iteration of myself is embarrassing.

[joking]

Every iteration of you is brave, kind, and caring -

[ and then a beat, to add: ]

- and maybe a little embarrassing. It's charming.

[laughs a little]

...Thanks. Mostly.
