"Well I was studying the history of animal transformation. Famous wizards and witches who could turn themselves into animals. I was hoping to find a bit of inspiration and look to find their techniques, see if anything is applicable to me," Ambrose said.

"It seems to be you have found your technique, but I guess you want to quicken the process?"

"Yes that would be good, the more animals I can turn into the more fun I can have," Ambrose said excitedly again, "But I also want inspiration for what they did with their powers, what animals they preferred and why,"

She considers him again, and all the possibility that comes with his ability. "Do you think you can isolate characteristics? Like strength, or speed? All while in your humanoid form?"

"Not really. I don't seem to get any transfer of abilities over when I revert to being human. Though if I spend a long enough time in one form I sometimes end up some of their urges? Wash myself with my paws or try to steal chips or eat raw sardines. It's kind of weird,"

"I wonder if the possibility is there..." she'd mutter, mind wandering down all the avenues before finally just going mute and eyes going blank as she contemplates - still as a statue.

Ambrose will look at her for a little while and wave a hand in front of her face, "Paige? Paige? Helloooo! Paige? If you don't respond I'll shout in the library..."

She'd blink and laugh at his threat. "Nah, don't do that. I was just wondering if you have tried to isolate it. Like, try and grow cat claws."

Ambrose gave her a little wink as she laughed, "I've never been able to do it and I'm not sure I would want to. What if I end up with the head of a dolphin and the body of a person? Or regular cat sized paws on the end of my human arms. I think it is a package deal, the full animal or nothing at all,"

She'd nod, accepting his answer as fact. "Still cool, though."

"I think so," he smiles and slides her a couple of books, "Famous sorceresses. One who could turn into birds, one who could turn into a giant bear," Ambrose said, "I think you might like to read through these,"

She was absolutely tickled pink, and visibly so, at the consideration. "I shall devour these voraciously." Chewing on her lip for a second before delving into her bag and producing an unopened juice container. "I promise not to spray you this time." Blue eyes twinkling in michevious amusement.

Ambrose's eyes met hers, he loved that look of mischief, "Never you mind about spraying me, imagine what would happen if you hit the books?" Ambrose whispered into her ear.

She'd shiver at his warm breath on her neck, her tickled pink turning to beet. "Yes." Clearing her throat. "Mhm. Very bad."

Ambrose chuckled and noticed her turning a lovely shade of pink once more and also noted he was rather close to her, "So lets be super careful with your juice box and read some books?"
|

Post by Renfri on Oct 8, 2020 1:57:49 GMT
"Then I think you had best take it from me because I can't seem to trust my hands." Still holding the unopened container with soft pressure for fear of unleashing chaos.

Ambrose will smile at her, “I don’t think you can be that clutzy, surely?” however he still did as asked took the juice box from her hand, his fingers lightly brushing over her own, “There you go, one safe juice box!”

"No, not typically but my need to reciprocate a gift for you seems to have overruled my usual caution while in such a holy place as this." And you're Hella distracting, but she didn't say the last part.

Ambrose chuckled and placed the juice box down, "Thanks for the gift, I will definitely enjoy it," he smiled at her and edged as close to Paige as he dared, "Libraries are holy places then? Worship in complete silence?"

"With head bowed and eyes lowered." She'd say with a small smirk. "Think you can do it?"

"Hmm, I don't know. Being quiet isn't really one of my strengths," Ambrose said with a smile, "But maybe you can help me?"

The look of perpetual puzzlement once again graced her face. She delved into her bag again and produced a lollipop. "Here you go." Lilting at the end in a question.

Post by Ambrose Cleland on Oct 8, 2020 16:11:45 GMT
Ambrose laughed and took the lollipop from Paige, "Thank you. How on Earth are you always so well-prepared? Have you got anything else in that bag of yours?"

"My mum told me always to be prepared. I have a stash of candy in case someone's sugars crash or a diabetic needs to boost their sugar. I also have a first aid kit, some goldfish crackers and a utility knife." Laughing softly.

"You have a stash of sweets and crackers in your bag? How do you resist not snacking constantly?" Ambrose asked trying to peer into her bag to see what might be inside.

She'd wrinkle her nose. "Not much into sweets and crackers are good the first few bites but taste like brick dust after a while. Now chocolate; that's a different subject entirely. If I had chocolate in my bag, it wouldn't last very long. Especially..." Here she emphasized the word. "... Chocolate covered almonds." Nodding once, succinctly. Her black laptop was visible, and the green slip of a Ziploc bag with the contents not visible. Her cloth pencil case which was near to bursting, and a couple maple candies. Something fluffy was in there, too.

"Chocolate? I must admit I do love chocolate too. Give me a Double Decker or a Mars and I'll be happy," Ambrose said and took note of Paige liking chocolate covered almonds, "If I ever see any chocolate coated almonds in the vending machine I'll make sure to buy a bag or two for you," he said and looked quizzically at the fluffy thing in her bag.

She followed his eyes and chuckled. "You'll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands before I reveal what that bit of fluff is."

Ambrose's eyes take on an almost pleading look, "But now I have to know what it is! Come on Paige...I'll...I'll go into Cardiff this weekend and buy three bags of chocolate almonds for you if you tell me!"

Some serious contemplation on her face now before she gives a firm shake of her head, lips desperately fighting off a smile and eyes twinkling with devious micheviousness.
