[Belth blinks at her as if taking in her 'oddities' in comparison to normal humans, but he doesn't look completely shocked.]

You are like a dragon then! They are made of magic, and they occasionally take human forms. [He's more intrigued than weirded out.] Do you have innate magic? Is that why you are so interested in learning other kinds?

[ladiesss]

Oh... [she does know a dragon who often takes human form, so she nods! this is already going better than she'd feared, so she perks up a little!]

I think all of us have a little innate magic, but I had to learn how to do all of my spells by trial and error. And there's a whole bunch of other Arts I haven't even figured out yet, so... Yeah! [she starts smiling, despite herself.] I don't have any fae teachers here, so I'm kind of trying to figure it out myself.

[arcanepower]

[His ears are standing straight up like a really interested cat. Aaaaaaaand here is rant mode.]

Experimenting with magic is what I do, and most of what I know about magic is entirely self-taught. I read a lot of books, [he says, like it's not an obvious thing.] Arcane magic is wild and hard to control. Because of that, I believe learning from many different sources is the best way to adapt and evolve.

[ladiesss]

[she just. listens. attentively.]

Okay, so you and I are book friends now. Like.

There's no getting out of it. I don't think we have a choice.

[arcanepower]

Wait, what? Friends?

[He turns red.]

I'm not-- I can't... I don't--

[ladiesss]

Don't what? Don't friends?

[oh, yeah. okay. this guy's a wimp.]

[arcanepower]

[His ears pin flat against his hair. Even the ends of them are pink.]

I'm-- I've never... had friends.

[ladiesss]

Oh. That's fine. [she... actually smiles. almost a grin.] I'm like, super low-maintenance. I'm a great starter friend. Don't worry.

[arcanepower]

... You aren't going to make fun of me?

[lmao, starter friend...]

[ladiesss]

No way. [a pause.] Well, maybe a little bit, but only in the good way that friends do. And you can toootally make fun of me back.

[arcanepower]

[Belth's first thought is that Krista is probably crazy. His second thought is that he's dangerous, and hanging out with a being made of magic might end up being bad if he ever loses himself.

But he decides not to spring that on her. Not right then.]

I'm not good with people. I don't even know the first thing about being a friend.

[He sighs.]

But I guess... I'll... try.

[It has nothing to do with Krista looking like his sister nope nope nope.]

[ladiesss]

Dude, I really suck at people. I'm serious. It's fine.

[she'll remain totes oblivious. friendship, go!]

So, just... Start by feeling free to come get me if you ever want help with something, or if you ever just want to hang out with... Another person, or whatever. I think that's what people do.

[nodding. being social. yes.]
