[ He arches an eyebrow. ]

And Ser Potter is...?

[ "Ser Potter", is this guy for real?? ]

Uh, it's a series of books about a kid- named Harry Potter- who finds out he's a wizard and goes to wizard school. Cultural phenomenon. They made them into movies, too.

Ah, good, more magic in fiction. Does he spend the majority of the time not using his abilities as well, save for one moment where he makes a torch?

Well, no. I mean, he's learning, but he's like... eleven.

Is it uncommon, then, for magical abilities to not manifest at such an age in this place? Honest question. I was keeping drinks cool by the time I was learning my letters.

I started my studies at twelve. I could probably cast before that, but I didn't know the marks.

I guess that's fundamental difference between creating fire with a wave of your hand and-- [ he draws a quick rune in the air, and the pillow that he rocketed across the room before comes flying back into his waiting hands ] --that.

[ His attention, of course, is drawn to the marking; he examines it carefully before it dissipates in the air. ]

Fascinating. I can only imagine how much study goes in to memorizing so many spells.

I've been at this for sixty-eight years and I'm still learning, if that tells you anything.

I'll have to insist on a better demonstration of your abilities before I leave. A trading of information, if you will. I can only hope it would be of use to the both of us.

Same goes for you.

Oh, I should introduce you to Wyn.

Ah? A friend of yours?

Not... exactly. She's a suit of armor, but she's probably my best work.

[ A smile tugs at the corner of his mouth. ]

An animated suit of armor. How remarkable -- I look forward to meeting her.

You're actually lucky I was still at the store when you popped in, or else the two of you would already be well-acquainted.

Some sort of security measure, then?

[personal profile] animated 2015-02-20 05:06 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty much. She's practically got a mind of her own.

[ magic nerd ping. ]

Now that I should like to see.

I thought you would.
