@cosmcther said: "Do you think I would benefit from using a type of tome? Your magical items always fascinated me, and I'm always looking to broaden my outlook. And vice versa, have you ever tried magic with a wand? It's like a funnel for those with innate magical prowess, giving your abilities a focal point when moving outward. Would you ever like to have a go at it?"

       “i’m not sure, to be completely honest with you.” his tone is blunt much like his words, yet that does not signify disinterest in her queries--- he feels the exact opposite, actually. he knows rosalina is a powerful being--- one who could rival the gods of his home realm, that much is certain, yet her interest in her tomes despite her own natural power couldn’t help amusing the tactician quite a bit. “though i have no doubt you would be able to use them to their maximum extent--- after a few practice runs, of course.”

        it’s a smile that’s forming on robin’s visage as he speaks. it’s an incredibly soft teasing aimed towards rosalina; there’s not a single doubt in his mind that she’d very quickly come to understand how his tomes worked and use them just as proficiently as he can, as unnecessary as it may be for her to use them in the first place. but next inquiry has smile dropping and expression generally shifting to that of curiosity--- it wouldn’t be wrong to think his head tilts just slightly to the side in thought.

       “no, i haven’t--- i don’t believe there’s anything like that back in ylisse to utilize in such a way.” of course that’s under the assumption that he would know how to control his magic with it in the first place, though now it’s not something he doesn’t have a slight interest in. he can’t help thinking it would be a bit silly to project his magic in such a way however, after using and controlling the elements he commonly wields with his bare hands for as long as he can remember. it felt more natural; the sensation of magic spurring in open palm before being cast to it’s target was such second nature to the tactician that the mere thought of preforming in other ways was almost a bit unnerving.

        silence reigns the air as he silently thinks to himself, considering the offered opportunity in question--- he was never one to turn down learning new things after all, but it was certainly something he wanted to think about before coming to a rather impulsive decision. “i don’t see why not. it can’t cause much harm, i’m sure.” robin finally speaks with that small smile returning to him, as well as his naturally playful tone and general attitude.

       "truth be told,” he begins after a small moment of quiet, smile growing a bit sheepish but remaining genuine all the same. “i’ve been quite interested in you, as well as what you can do, so it would be foolish of me to deny this kind of opportunity. that being said, if you’d like, i’m more than willing to teach you how my tomes work--- it wouldn’t be the first time for me, so i don’t mind.”
