You had a bad day.

"Ah..I'm sorry, time never is set in stone, unfortunately not a lot of people take that into consideration." That was a very sinister seeming comment, but Mal didn't think about going into detail on it, considering the topic at hand could always go grim.

"Thanks, not everyone likes to see it like that. I mean, I am looking for a major to go into, it's just a bit difficult." He frowned slightly, looking at Emily, seeing that she was looking a bit downcast now. "Oh no need to apologize, you're being very helpful. I'm enjoying talking to you."

Mal would run his fingers through his hair, looking at it briefly for a moment till he let it drop, returning his gaze to Emily. "Yeah, that's what I've been trying to do, but I've never really given it thought before. So it's taking me some time to decide is all."

Mal took a breathy sigh, just enjoying the silence, he was wondering whether or not he was causing this girl trouble. She did approach him, but how it was going he felt he was starting to bother her, or even waste her time.

Perhaps he'd ask if she'd like to be left alone, or would that be misconstrued as a way to avoid her, he didn't want to be rude. But he didn't want to further distress her or cause her anymore uncomfortable feelings.

Malvoes leaned back in his chair, staying silent he turned his gaze upward, slightly looking at the ceiling, keeping Emily still in his gaze. His fingers would start to dance along the arm of his chair, a subconscious reaction to his mind thinking, which often unnerved people close to him. He would lift his hand slightly, palm upwards and make slowly make six clear crystals, to which he would float upward, making them dance and spin around in the air slowly.

Such material acrobatics kept his body still, as his mind flexed the telekinesis muscle of his illusions subconsciously.

Mal would make a slight sound, as he was startled from his stupor, his focus would shift back to Emily, the gems moving slightly slower as his unconscious mind took over.

He gave a bit of a soft chuckle and looked back up to the gems floating in the air, with a bit of thought he made them start to cycle through the rainbow, each at different individual starting colors.

Mal smiled softly, he knew he was a bit of a show off when it came to his powers, especially on the island that allows him to be public with them. "Thank you, I like to do small tricks like this, kinda like...thought in motion."

Mal smiled a bit as he watched the crystals move. He never had it put into words so well before, it was nice that someone saw it for what it was.

His eyes were still up, as he was in thought about so many things, the Incident, his day, his past his future, etc. The words took a few moments to register before he had the ability to respond to her.

"Do you really think so?" He spoke with genuine curiosity, and a bit of fear it almost seemed random at this point. It felt like they had been here forever, like his problems were on pause and he had to go back to them the moment this was over.
