"I certainly hope not," Sean said with a brittle smile.

"Not always a bad thing. Just... makes you re-evaluate."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 12:32 am

"Yeah, I'd rather not re-evaluate too many more times in my life," Sean said, "There's something to be said for a certain amount of stability..."

"Well we all like to think we've ended up pointed in the right direction, aye?"

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 12:35 am

"Hopefully it is actually the right direction," Sean said, "How do we really know?"

"Bloody hell this is a whole lot of philosophy for one day. Next I'll be speaking in riddles and sending knights off on quests."

"It's a fine tradition," she chuckled.

"And I suppose with the way the conversation started, we weren't about to be discussing the weather."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 12:49 am

"A fine tradition of sending knights off to fight dragons," Sean smirked. "I find most conversations here to be about things far from the norm."

"Though I do say the weather is quite nice for chance meetings. For London at least."

"I don't tend to fly when it's not, aye."

"But then again, I don't often land unless something catches my eye."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 12:56 am

"I'm touched," Sean said, "A flock of ravens turning into a person certainly caught mine and anywhere else would've sent me running to hills."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 12:58 am

"Then I seem to have caught you at a good time."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:02 am

Sean chuckled.

"I say anytime a meeting doesn't end in fire is a good one," Sean said, "Perhaps my standards are a bit low?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:03 am

"Tch. So uncivilized, you wizards."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:06 am

"Just this one cave diving, rock climbing, hiking wizard," Sean said, "Hate to be lumped in with all of those gray beards in their towers of stone."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:08 am

"Suppose excess facial hair rather does put a damper on pyrotechnics."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:11 am

"And possibly a tripping hazard if you start to look like Merlin," Sean said, "Perhaps I need to meet more than one other wizard otherwise I'll have that image of other wizards in my head forever. Nailah being the lone exception."

There was only a slight twinge of falsehood when Sean mentioned meeting only one other wizard or was it uncertainty?

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:14 am

"You're... perhaps not as alone as you think, here on campus. Private sorts though, so I'm afraid I won't say more."

"Of course, the first wizard I met when I came to campus was a staunch nudist, which was rather odd."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:18 am

"I know there are others, can feel their touch on the currents of magic," Sean said eyes far away for a moment. "Well, they do say that wizards are supposed to be an eccentric lot, but hopefully you'll take our first impressions each on their own merits."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:20 am

"Aye, rather assumed he wasn't the standard issue."

"Though, lack of trousers aside, I suppose I'm ending up in contact with magic more and more."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:29 am

"Well you're dating a sorceress," Sean said, "One would assume you'd be coming into contact at least somewhat often. Though perhaps Nai-Professor Weaver has more self-control than I do. Though I learned at a young age that magic is much like breathing to me."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:31 am

"She wasn't a sorceress when we met last semester. Perhaps why she had such insight for you on whether one ought to embrace such things."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:35 am

"That would certainly make sense," Sean said, "It has been a bit of an adjustment basically going from hiding to well being perhaps a bit too overt. It's a bit hard figuring out the proper balance."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:36 am

"Because even here, some things are hard to explain, aye?"

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:39 am

"I think that would be considered quite the understatement, Headmistress," Sean smiled. "But that might be considered a conversation for a different time."

"That dress is not quite what I expected from a headmistress."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:41 am

"It's... something I'm trying on, you could say."

"Professor Weaver has continued to be... insightful about a good many things."

by **Sean Hall** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:47 am

"It gives you a bit of a feral appearance," Sean said, "Likely be handy when handing out demerits."

"I suppose Professor Weaver is giving us all a bit of guidance. "

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Dec 07, 2011 1:52 am

"She takes to some things easier, and she sees a great deal more than most."

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:04 pm

"One can only hope what she sees is good," Sean said.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:08 pm

"Would you rather see only clear skies, or would you want to see the storm coming and be able to change course?"

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:11 pm

"I would prefer the future was without storm clouds," Sean said with a shrug. "But that would be a bit unrealistic."

"I suppose the question is can you really keep the storm from coming or does it simply take a different form?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:12 pm

"You can choose what you will do."

"Sometimes, that's enough."

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:14 pm

"That makes me wonder, why it isn't always enough," Sean said.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:16 pm

"That we're not always satisfied? Why would that surprise you?"

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:25 pm

"It's not that," Sean said, "It's more that...well perhaps I lost my point at somewhere between satisfaction at being able to make our own choices and the la-lets stop there before we realize that I've likely lost the plot."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:33 pm

"That's fair enough. I think I was wandering a bit myself."

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:36 pm

"Do people actually have normal conversations here?" Sean asked.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:41 pm

"Well the World Cup is already over, aye?"

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:52 pm

"Well, yes, so you'd think we'd have switched from talking about football to miserable English weather and food," Sean smirked.

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:53 pm

"But I find both of those more than a little depressing."

by **Sean Hall** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 7:59 pm

"Soggy fish and chips have that effect on even the cheeriest of souls," Sean said, "Keeps the tourists from filling up the good restaurants."

by **Samantha McManus** » Thu Dec 08, 2011 8:07 pm

"Of course, I'm rather biased myself."
