this being kell if lila ever dared him to rob someone as a prank. he'd be trying to come off as menacing but wouldn't be able to help being polite and the person at first is so confused but then the wind blows kell's hair out of his face and the poor victim is terrified of kell's black eye so he throws his wallet at kell and runs and kell is all happy bc hey asking politely but with prupose worked !! but really it was because they got scared of him.

(kell doesn't know that lila was face palming round the corner as she watched him and she sent the gust of wind that blew his hair out the way bc kell is hopeless)

2023 books a darker shade of magic by v.e. schwab (reread)

Magic was a living thing---that, everyone knew---but to Kell it felt like more, like a friend, like family. It was, after all, a part of him (much more than it was a part of most) and he couldn't help feeling like it knew what he was saying, what he was feeling, not only when he summoned it, but always, in every heartbeat and every breath. He was, after all, Antari.
