Flowers in Your Hair

Asha smiled, it was nice to talk to someone that really understood, granted she was leaving out some details. What the veil coming down had done to her, how it had almost killed her and how the magic that had saved her had sent her into a coma for over a year. Sounded simple enough, until the topic of her actual age came up, and most people's brains just imploded trying to wrap their heads around it all, then there was the whole shard of Mythal slash rage demon deep inside of her, definitely things she didn't lead with when making new friends.

She contemplated his suggestion, all the magic she knew had been either taught to her by Auntie Lana or her mother, and all that in the last two years. Maybe having a different perspective on things, someone she didn't have any emotional attachment to. What would it matter to her if she was unable to perform blood magic in front of this stranger, they wouldn't really mean anything to her, so failing also wouldn't mean anything to her, she smiled.

That actually sounds like a really cool idea! I mean a person can't have too many teachers right, or well maybe that's wrong, I honestly have no flipping clue. So far all the magic I've learned has either been from Auntie Lana or from my mother. Well and my brother has taught me a little, he's a LOT further ahead than I am with his magic, but he's been doing magic for like over ten years and I've only been doing it for two years. Are you sure we'll have time to do it before you leave, are you sure this person would agree to it? She was so excited she hadn't even considered that she'd only just met Julian and perhaps she shouldn't be THAT trusting, but she liked to think of herself as a good judge of character, and he didn't really set off any murdery vibes.
