Stretching lightly, she looked around Meng's house. He had invited her to his house to teach her the magic that he knew, which was to her, rather impressing. She had taught her the basics of how to do it, which she would most likely practice when she got back to her dorm. Sighing lightly as she waited for Meng to get back from getting them both a drink, she wondered what would be next for them. Would she come her more often to practice and have their little sessions of magic? Maybe that would be good, considering her power was rather, weak. "How are those drinks coming along?" She asked him causally as she pulled her legs up to her chest. She would have to head home soon, as she hadn't realized how much time had passed with her being at his house. "I'll make sure to uh, practice the magic when I get home too."
Show me the magic!
- Thread starter Claire
- Start date
Meng had thrown a housecoat on, and had mixed up something sweet and fruity for himself and Aivia. He'd done a little more than just start teaching her magic, but her training did start. It was getting late but he could keep her here a little longer. Shortly after she'd called on Meng to know when the drinks would be ready, Meng walked from the kitchen back into the living room. "Ready right now, Dove."
As he walked into the room he grinned, eyeing her up again. So she was planning on getting some 'practice' in. Meng handed the drink off to Aivia and sipped his own, sitting on the couch next to her. "Well, if you're gunna start practicing it, something to keep in mind." He moved his hand to her face, running his fingers from her cheek down to her chin. "If you start hearing voices, don't listen to 'em but tell me that you heard 'em, Alright?"

"If you start hearing voices, don't listen to 'em but tell me that you heard 'em, Alright?"
Looking over to him as he brought her drink over to her, she smiled at him. Sighing lightly as she stared to him as he explained a few things to her, a light bush crossed her face as he touched her cheek and then her chin. Blinking rapidly as he said something odd to her, the minute he was done talking to spoke. "V-Voices? What do you mean?" What did he mean by that? Was he just trying to freak her out late at night? Or was there a possibility that she would hear things if she were to continue practicing what he had showed her.
Wait, had he forgot to tell her? Meng slapped his forehead as he realized he had, that wouldn't do. Taking a girl on like this, teaching her what he knew... He'd forgotten to mention some of the basics. "Well, the kind of magic I know comes from the astral plane, the natural world, spirits and stuff like that." He took a knee next to her, his hand moving down to her shoulder to reassure her. Something about teaching someone else what he knew was invigorating to him, maybe sharing what he knew with Aivia would encourage him to start trying to learn and develop a little more as well. "And that little trance state I showed you, that'll open you up a bit and sometimes things'll just want to talk. It's not dangerous or anything but it can be, just let me know if you hear anything." Meng gave Aivia as reassuring a smile as he could, though he did remember some of the spirits he had to broker deals with in order to get where he was.
Gasping lightly as the man talked about spirits, she would have never though that such a thin could be taught. How on earth had he ever figured out how to get that type of power? Aivia wasn't sure that she wanted to know the answer to that. Nodding lightly, she agreed that she would come to him, or at least tell him, if she were to hear anything unusual. She didn't get freaked out usually by those sorts of things, so she was sure that it wouldn't bother her. It would mostly surprised her to hear something that wasn't visible to her. "Aright, I'll make sure to let you know if anything like that happens." She gave him a sweet little smile before taking a sip of her drink. "Not that I'd be scared or anything."
"Good on yah." Meng placed his hand on Aivia's thigh, giving her a small, reassuring squeeze. He wouldn't deny feeling her up if she asked but she did want to reassure her. Aivia's interest in Meng's magics had encouraged him to want to start expanding on his own, to seek out and expand his own repertoire of spells he knew. Having someone like Aivia around was, indeed, quite invigorating for Meng. Someone so young and impressionable and willing...
He took another sip of his drink, then got a small grin. "When do you get out of school tomorrow, Aivia? I can swing by, pick you up, we could hit up a restaurant or a club..." He spoke as though trailing off, letting Aivia draw whatever conclusions she wanted to that tangent.

Smiling lightly as he praised her, she blushed a bit as he placed a hand on her thigh. Blinking down at his hand as he squeezed her, she quickly looked back up at Meng with another small smile. It didn't feel wrong or weird to be around him, and that was something she hadn't found with many people, so she was happy that she had ran into him in the first place. "4pm I believe. I get off earlier but by the time I get back to my dorm and drop all my stuff off...." She trailed as he had, thinking about the details of how long it would actually take her to do everything she needed to do before 4. "Yeah 4 works if that's good for you? And I mean you can pick considering you're the one with the car." A small giggle escaped her as she looked at him once more with a light sigh.
Meng finished his drink and smiled at Aivia. She was... comforting. Having her nearby was certainly quite pleasant, and she seemed quite happy with him as well. "I'll be there around four then." He stood up and walked off to his bedroom, leaving his cup in the living room. It didn't take him long to collect his clothes and throw them on before coming back out, ready to take Aivia back to the academy. "Your chariot awaits." He chuckled a bit after saying it, as though it was somehow funny.
Watching him with a close eye, she gave him a smile as she saw him get up abruptly from his couch. Blinking lightly, as he directed himself to his bedroom. 'What is he doing?' She thought in her head in the few moments that it took for him to come back into his living room. "My... Chariot?" She said with a quick laugh, as she found it silly that he used that word to describe his car. "Yes, your car is definitely a chariot, so elegant." She said with a long smile, happy with her sarcastic response. It wasn't like his car was bad in any way, but it definitely wouldn't be something that a princess would ride in.
Meng crossed his arms, smiling at Aivia. It wasn't an appreciative smile, in fact she had reminded him of how old he was. That saying had fallen this far out of style? Maybe he'd need to get back in touch with youths these days. No, no that was a terrible idea. He was just going to have his fun with Aivia and let things play out the way they were supposed to.
He opened the car door, holding it open for her. "We'll get you back to the school and then I'll grab you tomorrow after classes?" The way he said it, adding a little inflection on 'grab'. Meng wanted Aivia to know exactly what kind of fun she could expect when she was done with her classes, when she was his again.
