    Phoenyx looked over to Puck, a hint of surprise on her otherwise glacial face. "Nothing is up. I would quite like a shower as I only just returned from a run when I heard people in the Circle."

    Dark eyes looked looked him over. "You look tense. Is something wrong?" Direct as ever.

When Aurora casts Vulgar magic, the scent takes a nasty turn, to the putrid, nauseating odor of a rotting corpse. The stronger the magic, the more those around want to retch at the smell.

    There was a smirk, “You guess? Wow, way to make a girl feel special.” She jokes with a laugh.
    “Not really whole hell of a lot to be honest. How about you? Settling well and all that?” she hadn’t had the chance to like, really talk with the carefree looking guy.

    She then catches Kaze intercepting Vulture. The talk of coffee caught her attention, and she wanted more coffee. But that would have to wait it seemed.

    When Phoenyx mentioned wanting a shower, she had to bite her tongue from making a comment. One that would have probably been a bit too far. Not for the Shaman personally, but she knew the Arrow had her limits. Best respect those. So the comment was kept to herself.

    “Tense?”
    looking back to Puck. Did she miss it? Probably. Reading people wasn’t something she did much anymore. “But what she said.” A nod to Phoenyx.

    Puck watches as Kaze goes to chat with Vulture, and lets the last of his frustration slide away as Phoenyx and Aurora speak.

    "I'm fine." He smirks as his eyes flick over to where Anima had scurried off, rolling dramatically for Phoenyx. The attitude was gone, but was he still tense? Maybe a bit.

    "It's a natural talent of mine." Aurora's joke is met with Puck's own self deprecating humor. Apparently you're never to tense for that. The Fools gotta fool. Lone Enchanter here to carry the mantle for the path.

    "Settled in well. Bought a studio. Found a hollow." A finger points at Kaze. "Got my first new house guest."

    Was Puck homeless for five months because he forgot to find a Sanctum? Shhhhhhhh. That's between him and his dimly lit motel room.

    Kaze nods to Phoenyx and Aurora as they approach and engage Puck, or maybe are engaged by Puck. He nods and smiles in Puck's general direction when Puck mentions him as Puck's 'first house guest'. Really. Wow.

    When Vulture asks what he finds so interesting, Kaze smiles. "You're cool. I can tell." He says, grinning.

    "You came in with a job and your own life in the city already, and just like, 'okay checking in, cause it's the thing to do'. You don't seem to really be looking for anything from anyone, but you don't seem like an anti-social loner either. You seem...like a regular person."

    Kaze shrugs, "Cool." He explains. A person who's a mage instead of a mage who's a person.

    "Also," He says, "I was studying to be an EMT for a while, and have a lot of respect for military; I had family in the military. So, yeah. Not that I want to hear war stories, but I am up for however I can help you get settled, if I can." He offers.

    "So. I guess that's my first impression." He says with a grin.

    Corn, hanging near Vulture and Kaze turns to the Arrow, "I had you pegged as a military trained fellow." Then he turned to Vulture "I would like the opportunity to get to know you better over a cup of coffee, if you would like. In case you decide to hang out with Kaze, who is a nice fellow, I would love to receive an invitation."

    "Hey, if it's ok with Kaze, it's ok with me. I don't know the local cafes, so I'll need one of you to pick."

    She smiled at the regular person statement. "Gotta be a real person, before anything else. Labels are for spices, not for people. I don't like being reduced to just a path, order, or well anything. Adaptability has to be our strength." She glanced back at the First Talon for a moment, then back to the boys. "Ok, lets head. And you are wrong about not wanting anything from anyone." She pointed her finger to Kaze. "I want a coffee from you."

    Eyes follow Puck's look towards Anima, and the Arrow lets out a small sigh. The Thyrsus had a habit of rubbing people the wrong way.

    "That's good," she replied to Puck. "Do you have any plans beyond that? A prefered field of study, perhaps?"

    She catches Vulture quoting from the Hand, and a small smile tugs at her lips. It was good to know where people stood with respects to the philosophy.

    She caught the eye roll, though it wasn’t like he was hiding it. But, she got it. Her and Anima had gotten off on the wrong foot when she returned. She’d let the two sort themselves out. They were all adults here right? Right?

    “Might want to see if you can market that talent then.” Trying to joke back, but not entirely sure how. Puck was still relatively unknown, so she tended to tread carefully. But so far, he had some sense of humor.

    “Well, those are the major things when moving to a new city. Especially the Hollow part, which can be a bitch sometimes. So congrats.” It had taken her some time to find her own. “House guests are always fun, well, if you like them. And they bring food, beer or laughs. Not necessarily in that order.”

    Eyes look to Kaze and Vulture, who seemed to be heading for coffee. Which sounded really good.

    Then back to Phoenyx, who mentioned fields of study. “Or fields, don’t limit yourself to just one.” A small smirk. She had jokes. Lame ones. But still.

    Eyes are drawn to Kaze as he talks about his respect for the military. It's genuine surprise, although it shouldn't be. It seemed Puck's assumption of service was premature. The Theurgists behaviors were the result of those around him, and Kaze had apparently not served personally. Huh. That's on him for assuming.

    "I'm registering an alias to restart my career in journalism. Conner Ellis, soon to be reporter for the Sacramento Bee. Or maybe broadcast? I haven't decided."


    He shrugs. He didn't really have the personal flair for live tv, but careers take you where they take you. The Winds of Chance would blow, and he would follow the breeze wherever it took him.

    "Professional ladies man?" Skeptical Puck is jokingly skeptical of Aurora's joke. But hey, weirder things had already happened. "Scandalous. Pre awakening Puck wouldn't know what to think."

    It's true. Pre awakening Puck couldn't see a future outside his little town. Now he has superpowers in the city talking to other superpowered people in a war for the freedom of their very souls. It's been an interesting journey connecting those two dots to say the least.

    "Thanks though." It's always nice to share experiences with people. Kaze should be an interesting guest at least. As for fields? ​"I'm brushing up on Time too. It's a good tool for the whole journalism thing. Figured it might come in handy."

    Speaking of Time? Was anyone watching what time it was? Almost bounce time. Puck is inching towards the door. Gotta get ready for that official business next month.

    "Okay!" Kaze says, smiling. "Sounds like a plan!"

    He looks at Vulture and then Corn, then around, not leaving anyone out. "I guess we're heading out for coffee at Starbucks!"

    He moves out towards the door, and letting anyone who wants catch up, Kaze leaves the Circle.

    Since there is a coffee mingle at Starbucks in progress, though it's not necessarily right after this scene, anyone is welcome to join it, and I am moving out of this scene for the month!
