( Literally no one knows. Henry, do you know why you are this way. Do you burn like lobsters boil. Mysteries of the universe! )

There's nothing like that - title where I'm from. What is it you do? What do dark mages do in the army?

( right back to thinking about what he'd mentioned in passing about curses )

[carreau]

[ Henry doesn't know much about most things...dealing with people........ :') ]

Well~ we use magic to kill our enemies!

[ I mean, it's military, so. ]

[rebella]

( Henry... )

Doesn't - doesn't magic that large have big consequences?!

[carreau]

Normal magic kills enemies too, though...but you don't use it by yourself, you have to use tomes.

I guess I did it myself once~ I don't remember it very well...

[rebella]

Any magic, I didn't think any of it could be -

( Stop, slow down, don't trip into that mess, Ella. She straightens, placing her hands on the fronts of her thighs to gather her thoughts and slow down. )

So you perform magic to kill people. That's... very militant of you. Can you do anything else with your magic?

[carreau]

[ He watches her, but doesn't seem to fully comprehend that she seems to be having some trouble with this. ]

I can do curses! There's a lot you can do with those~

[rebella]

( Subtly moving inch by inch toward the door. That sends a chill down her spine, because curses... curses are something very close to home for Ella, and predictably in no happy way. A curse disguised as a blessing, leading to some of the adventures and most difficult decisions of her life. She hold sup her hands - it's a sort of low level measure of placation, there there, nice dark mage captain... )

I'm ... I'm not sure there's a lot of pleasant things you can do with those.

[carreau]

[ Oh...where are you going :( ]

Sure there are! If you had trouble sleeping, I could help with that with a curse! And if you were dying slowly and painfully, I could do something about that too~

[rebella]

( Distance seems wise, Henry, it seems wise to someone cursed like Ella. )

How would you help someone sleep with a curse?

( She can see the logical conclusion for how he might help the painful dying with a curse but... )

[carreau]

It's easy!

[ For him, maybe. ]

The hardest part is finding sacrifices, buuuut I think I can manage~

[rebella]

( That makes her stop and blink, mouth opening and closing again before she finds her voice. )

Sacrifices? What kind of sacrifices?

[carreau]

Mm, small animals! I think there's rats in here, so it shouldn't be a problem at all~

[rebella]

( Magic is tricky enough, and she does know having a base for it makes it easier to do something larger, with more minimal cost. That's reminding her of Lucinda right now, but not in specifics... aside from how Lucinda would change one thing into another. )

At that rate, won't we want to invest in a cat?

[carreau]

We don't need one~

[rebella]

Because we have you.

[carreau]

Ahaha, that's right!

[rebella]

Should we start calling you Captain Cat?

( Ahahahahaha okay so maybe that wasn't entirely funny but it makes her feel a wee bit better okay )

[carreau]

Just Henry's fine~

[rebella]

Just Henry, then.

( Still edging away. )

I'll be seeing you later?

[carreau]

Okay~ Just tell me if you need anything!

[rebella]

Thank you, Henry, I will.

( Avoid that as much as she possibly can. )
