[eternallybored]

[ A princess knows how to reward someone when they have continuously proved useful. In fact, the gesture of rewarding only adds to a royal's status and respect. Since she has found much use in this young sorcerer, it is time she treated him as a guest for once.

This night Kaguya waits for Gellert in her wing of Eientei, literally the House of Eternity. Nothing changes here unless she allows it to, for it is all under her enchantment. Thankfully she leaves the air free, for if not even that would become as still and suffocating as any diamond. In the meantime she sits on the open porch to her garden on a pillow, looking at the lilies and the fireflies dancing about them. ]

I don't know if I have a favourite.

[He laughs.]

But I shall show you a spell - or two.

[He goes over to the flowers, regards them with a tilt of his head then performs a circular gesture with his wand. The flowers rise slightly and grow, blooming fully and expanding then changing colours. Finally with a sweeping gesture he severs their stems. They rise up freely into the air, gathering together and forming into a bouquet which he takes and then presents to her.]

[eternallybored]

[ What a charmer! She takes the bouquet graciously. ] What an enchanter you are.

[ And yes she is very pleased; there's always something nice about seeing something new for the first time. ]

[darklycharming]

Just a sample.

[He says with a smile.]

There are few limits to what I can do.

[eternallybored]

I should like to hear all about it; learning of different magics is something in which I have always had an interest.

[darklycharming]

Well, much of it is manipulation of the elements or of transforming a physical thing into something different.

[eternallybored]

Are there many as talented as you seem, or are you the norm?

[darklycharming]

[He laughs.]

I have been told I am exceptional.

But most wizards and witches can do these kinds of spells to some degree of competency.

[eternallybored]

Ah, to have magic like that; one should be proud of showing such to others... [ She raises her glass to him. ]

[darklycharming]

[He raises his in return.]

I never did like to hide anything.

[eternallybored]

No...? Even with something so dangerous and powerful?

[darklycharming]

Especially with that. Why hide what you can do? If you show it then people can act accordingly. With the proper respect.

[eternallybored]

Ah... I agree completely. If only the rest of the world was as sincere in what they can do just as you are...

[darklycharming]

They will come around. I have it all planned.

[eternallybored]

Now you have gotten me intrigued about this.

[darklycharming]

You wish to know my plans?

[eternallybored]

So long as it is interesting and grand...

[darklycharming]

Oh, very grand!

[He laughs.]

I will create a whole new world. A golden age for my kind and for those who would seek to harm us - they will learn that we can live side by side, after all.

[eternallybored]

Side-by-side, you say... Mm. A good number of men have often dreamed that much.

[darklycharming]

I will be the one who succeeds.

[eternallybored]

Is this plan already in the works?

[darklycharming]

Always. I am always seeking the best ways to make it happen.

I have a friend who is also going to help me.

[eternallybored]

Well, then... this is something I shall look forward to seeing unfold.

[darklycharming]

[He nods.]

Would you like to help as well, Fraulein?

[eternallybored]

Help with....? Ah, no. I need not any but your service to escort me to and from worlds.

[darklycharming]

While giving nothing in return?

[He's teasing.]

[eternallybored]

I offer you sake and my praise. [ And as a ~princess~ that should be enough. ]

[darklycharming]

You're very... dignified, aren't you?

[eternallybored]

I do take that as a compliment. Of course, a princess must appear as such.

[darklycharming]

Of course.

But do you enjoy it?

[eternallybored]

Very much so, Gellert-kun. It has been a while since I've spoken with a mage in his own right.

[darklycharming]

Then I am happy to oblige you.

[eternallybored]

Tell me... what do mages do in their spare time?

[darklycharming]

[He laughs lightly.]

Just the same as anyone else, depending upon what their job is and what their hobbies or interests are.
