I admit to it, but you have not seen me use any of my higher level spells.
. . . I went to school because I found it fascinating, and incredible, and I loved it. And then I was taught to see it as a weapon, to see myself as a weapon. When I remember I still have love for it, I want to share that with everyone.
Yeah, I know. Going to have to do a performance when we get home.
[He huffs an amused noise, but there's a little tinge of That's the Thing I'm Sensitive About to it. He's missed a lot. But it's not really important at the moment.]
So this whole charade probably isn't helping any of that, is it?
I have a lot to show you. You will like the tower, I think. [He's just excited to show him the things he missed.]
. . . Uhm, well. I don't have so much magic here. So it is less the thing where I feel like a powerful weapon, and more - how it was when we first met. I don't like going back to feeling weak.
[Also that school is bad and not good. At least this school. It is probably not even accredited.]
Not the first time I've heard this from-- fuck, most everyone I talk to here at all. But that's what this place is trying to do, isn't it? Make everyone feel as if there's nothing to do but go along with it.
S'bullshit though. [He just presses a little bit closer.] Just about the strongest-willed person I know. [A half-smile.] Rita might have you beat by a nose.
