[ YES SHE'S SMILING AND GLOWING BECAUSE SHE HATES THEM. ]

No, of course not. [ she steps closer, ] I had wanted to thank you for the cookies, and had hoped you would take a moment to share some with me.

[arcanepower]

[His cheeks and nose pinken almost immediately.]

I'm not really doing anything.

[He doesn't quite meet her eyes, he's totally embarrassed.]

I like flowers.

[invigorates]

I am glad you enjoyed them. I had hoped I picked colors suitable to your tastes. [ the lines across her cheeks brighten significantly as she moves toward the table, motioning for belthazar to sit with her. she sets the little bag of cookies before them and slowly opens it. ]

Did you make these yourself?

[arcanepower]

You did. And the message behind them was nice as well. Especially after... earlier this month. [He shakes his head. Adra leaving really hit him hard, that's easy to tell.

He slides onto the bench across from her, his pale fingers barely visible beneath his long sleeves.]

I did. Cooking is... second only to magic, for me. I am happiest when I can practice both freely.

[ she's already spoken to him about adra's departure once before, so she doesn't say anything about it now. instead she nods, silently understanding that it's going to be difficult for him to get over his father leaving, and she certainly gets it.

she offers one of the cookies to him, her leylines bright when he says the word magic. ]

A fondness for magic is something we share, then. [ and taking a cookie of her own, she bites into it. ] You should tell me more of yours — I had not known you were a mage.
