Woah, let's save the philosophical stuff for a later conversation.

[ mae's legs dangle. ]

Merlin's a really famous name is all. It's weird. Guess weird people have weird names. I thought you were a hippie because of the whole tree hugger thing. I guess you could still be one?

[courtmagic]

I'm not a hippie! The tree just grew here! [he has a house, he cleans himself, he doesn't do weird hippie things!] Anyway. It's not a weird name if I'm the one who made it famous, you know. [a few people already know here, so there's no reason to hide it. now Mae can call him amazing as well. (no)]

[witchdaggah]

No you're not. Merlin was a bird.

[ maybe. it's been a while since she read arthurian legend. it was cool back in the day. ]

[courtmagic]

Sometimes I was a bird. Sometimes a handsome stranger. I could have been a dozen things, but that doesn't change who I am!

[magic means anything is possible.]

[witchdaggah]

What, really?

[ a beat. ]

Show me. Show me now.

[ at least she's honest about what she wants. ]

[courtmagic]

...I would. But being in this place cuts me off from a lot of my magic.

[except when the magic in the place was running wild and he had managed enough energy to do stupid things at the time.]
