Private Meetings and Races

"How did you deal with winters there?" he'd ask curiously, "here you can get heat charms, magic items aren't as common in the outside world." He'd take a sip of his tea, chuckling a bit at the story, "well at least you had an excuse for falling asleep in class," falling asleep in school seemed like a stereotypical teen thing.

Aedan would tilt his head, listening to her answer about her snack preference. "Yes, that makes sense," he'd nod and eat some his jerky and taking a sip of his tea. "I usually get strong or spicy drinks and food, because I don't have much of a sense of taste," he'd say with s chuckle, "it's a lot weaker than most."

"So, in high school?" he'd ask, "I could tell you were probably a teenager, but I wasn't sure." Her height made telling her age a bit more difficult than it would with most.

"Winter will be here soon," he'd take a sip of his tea, "you may want to get a heat charm." He'd chuckle, "you're lucky you weren't here last year, island got hit by an enchanted snow storm, there was piles and piles of snow everywhere." Luckily that mess had been resolved, it'd have definitely been hard on her.

He'd chuckle at her smug look. "You definitely look a bit older than that," he'd eat a piece of his jerky, "age can weird on the island though, lots of immortals and people with longevity." It was certainly something he had to adjust to, people not looking their age.

"Ok, so how old are you then?" he was guessing sixteen or seventeen. "And how old do you think I am?" he was nineteen, but like her he looked older, by a few years at least.

"What is Amaterasu?" he'd ask curiously, he'd ask, looking at the orb curiously. "In guessing some sort of guardian spirt?" it wasn't a super uncommon thing on the island, there was every type of magic imaginable there. "How warm can it get?" the ionic energy he produced didn't have a temperature.

"Too handsome?" he'd chuckle, "if you werent saying that so...factually and casually I'd think you were flirting with me." Another drink of his tea and he'd set his now empty cup to the side. "I'm nineteen, be twenty in January, people have usually thought I was older."

He'd nod, "I was guessing around sixteen or seventeen, your tall, but your face still has that youth about it, cute and youthful." The small pixie would return, refilling their drinks if they wanted.

"Oh a divine avatar," he'd say, looking at her curiously, "don't know much about shinto gods, but theres lots of demigods on the island, so a chance you might meet a kid of hers here." He was always curious about how people reacted to meeting the children of the gods they worshiped.

He'd chuckle. "An attractive girl flirting with me, don't see anything to object to or complain about about," he'd say with w playful smile, "as long as you don't mind me flirting back."

"Got a big family back home?" he'd take a sip of his refilled tea, "I haven't been to the narrow reality in a while. Been space plenty of times for work, but haven't seen much of off island stuff in a long time." It was odd really, like many he'd come here from off island, but now he had little reason to leave, it was home.

He'd chuckle. "Oh you will, you've probably talked to a few and not even realize it," he was curious about how newcomers reacted to meeting actual gods.

"And it seems I've got you blushing a bit," he'd say with a playful smirk, "looks good on you, looks cute." He was enjoying the back and forth they were having, even if she seemed a bit inexperienced with flirting.

"Sounds like you admired him greatly," he knew what that was like, to admire one's father. "Do you intend on being a fire fighter like him?" he'd ask, taking a sip of his tea. "Here you'll have magical resources as well."
