Kaze laughs out loud nearly spitting his drink at Belle's improvised pantomime! "Yeah, okay!" He says, "Maya, I'm pretty sure that means something totally different in, like, American Sign Language!" He laughs again!
"Seriously though, that's totally what I want too, but I have another big work project working with like organic chemistry, you know? That's Life I guess." He says thoughtfully.
He sobers up a little when Belle invites him to give more details on his sparring experience with Phoenyx. "Oh. Well, you know, our training is hard, I mean it used to be, before I quit. Yeah. Before that, I broke some ribs once when she got close. I was kind of, you know, chemically enhanced at the time. It was a work thing, but I felt bad about it. She wasn't going to let me apologize or anything, but actually, we haven't sparred since then, not really."
Kaze thinks for a quick moment and says, "Nothing really, no. Halloween has been pretty quiet since I've been here. A couple years then, actually almost three."
He sips his drink which is a hot cocoa and thinks for a minute and then says gently, "Hey. I know we practically just met and everything, so...the thing is, I trust my feelings, and I have a good feeling about you. So, just an idea to think about, I have a condo in walking distance of the the U, and it's got a pretty nice work/living space to it, but I am not really up to you know, securing it the way I want yet. I want to learn more about that. I think I could learn a lot from you. So, you don't need to answer like right away, you could tell me in a month if you want, but if you wanted to save up, you could take the bedroom and I would crash on the futon in the living room, and you could help with the security and you know, take advantage of the work environment. It's a really chill, peaceful place to work."
