[faithfulflame]

Everyone has flaws, hers is cooking.

[swordboning]

And yours is...?

[faithfulflame]

I'll only tell if you share yours.

[swordboning]

If I tell you mine, you most certainly won't share yours.

[faithfulflame]

I said I would and I will. I do trust you.

[And her greatest flaw isn't exactly a secret to anyone that knows her well enough.]

[swordboning]

Fine then, it's not exactly spectacular. It's nagging.

[faithfulflame]

And mine is even less interesting. I hold grudges.

[swordboning]

Frankly, seeing my normal company, it's pretty obvious that I'm used to that.

[faithfulflame]

Well, it's not like it's unusual. Nor is nagging.

[swordboning]

You may have misunderstood me. I give in to nagging far too easily.

[faithfulflame]

Oh. I guess I did. But that makes sense.

[Heh.]

[swordboning]

I don't know what about it makes sense.

[He doesn't see himself as a doormat.

When he really is. Just more stubborn about it.]

[faithfulflame]

[Rei only smiles.

He is a doormat, with hedgehog spines. And another final topic shift, because she had a thought at the mention of the word sense.]

What was it you did to the supports? I felt magic of some sort.

[swordboning]

You'll have to be more specific. Besides, I only know two spells so it isn't as if it's difficult to figure it out.

[faithfulflame]

I'm not from your world, I don't actually know what kind of spells you can do. But you did something to the building, I didn't catch what. I was a little distracted at the time. I just felt a release of energy, while I was cutting through the wall.

[swordboning]

[He just ends up shrugging.]

I can't say I remember the specific circumstance. But all I can do is create swords and cast reinforcement magic.

[faithfulflame]

Well, I guess then it would be reinforcement. Swords wouldn't have been entirely useful.

[swordboning]

Then you have the answer. Satisfied?

[faithfulflame]

Yes. Thank you.

I suppose I should let you get back to work, though.
