I'm glad you think so. I don't really have a lot of examples to compare to, so... you know, just trying my best.

[scholiast]

Of course. And you'll always get better and better the more you practice.

[aeturnus]

Oh yeah, and I don't intend to shirk on any of that.

[ Trust him. He's easy to get dedicated... just most of the time it isn't his idea to get involved in things. Lack of ambition isn't what someone would expect from first king of Rome, but there you have it. ]

[scholiast]

Good.

(Wow, this is actually very easy.)

Does this mean you're my apprentice now?

[aeturnus]

[ It helps when your student is practically addicted to learning after something catches his eye. ]

If you want to keep teaching me, sure. I'd love that.

[scholiast]

(Oh she'd kind of been joking but his reply is so sincere. Lucretia smiles.)

Yes, of course I want to keep teaching you. You have a lot of potential.

[aeturnus]

[ He's casting magic, Lucretia. Of course he wants to keep learning. How cool is this??? ]

More like I have a lot of time on my hands, speaking generally. Realizing how much left you've got to learn helps inspire potential if you ask me.

[scholiast]

A fair comment.

But I know a few other people who, when faced with the same amount of time, got quite lazy! So I'm still impressed.

[aeturnus]

Well, thank you. Maybe that'll help when we get to the harder stuff and I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing.

[scholiast]

You'll know what you're doing by that time, don't worry. We're going to take it one step at a time.

[aeturnus]

No promises I won't be messing around with it in my own time, though.

[ He can't just... not, you know? Have magic, will cast. ]

[scholiast]

Of course. Equal work and equal play and all that jazz.

[aeturnus]

[ That just gets a grin out of him. ]

I knew you'd get it.

[scholiast]

Yes, I frequently muck around and waste all of my spell slots.

[aeturnus]

Except this thing you just taught me doesn't even use those, right? Not strong enough.

[scholiast]

No, it's just a cantrip. You can mess around with that one as much as you like.

(Ideal for training, in that regard!)

[aeturnus]

You bet I will.

[ What have you unleashed, Lucretia ]
