"I'm sure you could." It wasn't said in mocking tone, merely echoing what she thought. After all, she was a priestess...so she would have to be either good at magic or physical assult. Her melee...was a bit sloppy. More hack and dice into little pieces than any strategy to it, thus it led him to believe she was quite versed in magic.
Though he didn't give immediate solution to the problem. Though he was eyeing it. She had indeed smudged that circle's composition a bit. Be it the border circle, inner circle, runes, or chaos star that composed the thing, any part that wasn't correct would make it fail. Thus why generating ones own was so hard and also tiring to maintain for long periods. "Take a good look at everything."

"Hey, don't go blaming it on being my horse. you're the one that does things to get yourself bit."
A slight chuckle, and a walk over.
"Those two are getting along better. a bit more..social with eachother. hopefully with any luck, they'll be pairing off soon."
Then over to the horses, patting Ramoth and speaking to her in Tier'Dal, praising her leadership of her herd, and telling her how fine a horse she was. pampering her a bit. yes he knew she was still pissy about the event at the Lich's domain.
Hmph. flattery will get you nowhere D'vinn. well..then again..you are right. I'm a credit to my breed, and since you at least know how good you got it perhaps I can let you ride again. but no promises.

Well Lloth be damned, she didn't see anything wrong with teh rune she'd drawn. Even the complicated little swoosh in it had been carefully drawn. Her hands hit her hips and her eyes narrowed, prepared to blast him for not helping her when she saw out of the corner of her eye a bit of teh stuff was on her gloves. That meant she'd hit it with her arm when she was drawing the stupid rune. "Well dammit." She used her fingers to swipe at the bit that had gotten smudged, cleaning it off and then carefully retracing and then stepped back and when the rune still refused to activate she looked again. Now she's smudged the other ******** side. Rolling her eyes, she moved slightly and repeated the process then stepped back. What now? Oh look, the top of the rune she'd drawn had a problem. So leaning over the table, she fixed that but most have leaned too close because her pendant fell into the mixture. "******** it." she muttered fixing it yet again.

"You're still the one distracting me." But she didn't fight too long on it, she was busy concentrating on trimming up her hair...and doing it with one sore hand wasn't the most fun thing in the world. Though when she deemed it again short enough, that dagger got put away and then a little jar came out. Of course upon opening revealed a red almost paste like substance, which some was dug out with two fingers. Piper rolled her eyes slighty. "They're only foals Malik, let children be children. You shouldn't concern yourself anyway with it, this is my business. I turn a blind eye to yours, you can at least keep your hands to yourself on mine." Oh he knew she didn't like his slaving one bit, but passive as ever she never said anything about it...even now when he was putting it back into fill swing and she had to bash her morality to keep herself quiet about it. Though she noticed one of those foals sniffing at the stuff on her fingers...which she pulled out of her reach. "No, you can't eat that it will make you sick." Thus with a mirror sitting on her knee, she went about restreaking her hair.
Okay he couldn't help it. He had to give a chuckle as she kept messing the damn thing up over and over despite her trying. Yes it was funny...though he did have to take some sympathy about it...he used to do the same damn thing and it was really annoying.
Gesturing her aside he dipped his finger in the jar and redrew the messed up parts for her. After all he was taller and stood over the table easier, and also had a longer reach. "When you rune, always make sure to involve only your fingertips, arching your hand down, and thus keeping your arm up. And to keep your circle." A heat and shockwave rune combo was duly scribed and activated, giving a litle shockwave of head over the circle, hardening the substance. "Just apply heat."

A slight chuckle.
"I wasn't reffering to the foals, I was reffering to the pair of Drow in the kitchen. I know these foals are by and far not old enough for breeding."
A look at her streaking her hair, and a slight smile.
"Ever though of letting it grow back out like it was when you were younger?"
Hey, he thought she looked rather fetching with long hair like that.

"Zahara and Sevilin, of course I should of known that. Your favorite little pet project of late. If I didn't know better I would say you're trying to play match maker...of course with some perverse and twisted way about it but you get it." A moment of silence as she concentrated a bit on what she was doing, though somewhat of a snicker. "What they're not breaking furniture over each other's heads? How cute..." Yes she still hated Sevilin and was still miffed at Zahara. Piper didn't like being verbally attacked after all. Though a look from her little mirror to Malik for a moment at his comment. "Letting it grow out? I do far too much to keep my hair long, don't you think?" Honestly she hadn't had her hair that long since she had left home. Just hitting the top of her shoulders seemd to be the longest she would let it get these days. Back to finishing up her little touch up job. "Hm, maybe. You just want something to tangle your hands into better." Of course she had to tease.

Getting upset was not good right now and she tried to calm down even though she was ready to pull out her dagger and completley screw up the entire circle. Gods that was annoying. She had that pasty stuff all over her gloves and now it was on her pendant too. Oh look it was activating. Why? Because her teacher had fixed it for her. Joy. "Thanks.' she muttered. She took a moment to calm herself and glaring at the circle wishing it would drop right through the floor erased his rune and tried again. Of course this time she tossed that damn pendant behind her so it couldn't fall and she did keep her hands arched downwards so that only her fingertips touched and traced very carefully the exact rune he'd given her, watching it activate. A sense of pride filled her. Look dammit, at what she'd done. Though out of curiosity she did push on the circle and was quite surprised to find that it did feel hard. "Interesting..."

"Just a helpful little tip for you to remember when playing with this stuff." He was quiet a moment, watched her and then cleared his throat, pulling over the main book she had been using lately. He flipped it open and then a few pages and then stopped, folding the edge of the page over.
"You can play as you want up to this point in the book. Don't go farther than that." They were all harmless, barely anything. Basic light and dark, heat and cold, a few healing and a few other non lethal things. Things she couldn't get him in trouble for. "You'll be tested on these and then a few more within the text itself."

"I'm playing matchmaker simply to secure one merc with binds a bit stronger than money bought loyalty. really, if I wanted to be vicious about it. a little mental trigger might help it along."
Idly drumming on Malvolence.
"And yes, I like to have more to tangle my hands into. but you don't so so much that it couldn't grow at most down to your backside, if you wanted. and really, if there was a situation that needed short hair, it woudln't take but a second to lop it off, really."

"Gee Malik, why don't you just throw them in bed together already and lock the door to the room. You know, throw an aphrodisiac into dinner while you're at it just to get things going before you do." A roll of her eyes, Malik was devious she'd admit that. He liked to have those that he was interacting with binded to him if he could do it and it seemed Sevilin and his rune mage talents weren't out of range of the snare. Though she was putting stuff away now, giving her hair on more look over before letting the dye dry now. "I suppose you're right A'mael. Besides, you're planning on turning me into a wife, can't very well be running all over the place like a kid anymore can I?" Sure, without wanderlust she could afford to kick back. "Alright then, no more cutting me hair for a while."

a snicker.
"That might not be a bad idea. and it coudl be arranged. but I prefer to use methods that can't be directly connected to myself. a little nudge in her head while she might suspect me, she can't prove that it just wasn't herself."
then a smile at her.
"That's right. and your going to be a fine wife, I've no doubt. though with that curious little wedding gift..I wonder if I might up the timetable on that little event."
Another grin.

She glanced at him and then down at the book noting in her mind right where he had cut it off. Of course he should really know better than telling her that she couldn't go any further because that only made her really really really want to. But she would be good...for now. She pulled the book closer to her and began to flip through glancing at some of them. "Alright. So I guess this is practice time, hmm? I think I can handle that. Are you staying to supervise or are you leaving me to my own devices?" Already erasing the rune she'd just completed and carefully scribing another one, not really listening.

"By elvish Gods, I've given him an idea. I really need to watch what I say around you don't I?" Piper smiled back at him in that particular way she did with her head slightly tilted. "You just can't wait can you? I told you, it's an Andal thing, but I've always enjoyed it. And you probably will to if I know your tastes pretty well. Then we'll have a fabulous night and so on and so forth." A little melodic laugh to accompany that and a spark to the gold in her eyes, just because she could. Before her attention returned to her hand, removing her bandanna from it and inspecting her little fang inflicted wounds. "That really did hurt...nightmares you know, don't have anything vile in thier saliva do they?" Because that would hurt like no tomorrow...well more than it did now.
"If you wish to make it then it is. Practice is the best thing in this particular study." So as she took to playing with things he merely walked back to his end of the table, sitting down and getting out his paper and a piece of charcoal again, taking to drawing little combinations that came to his mind that he thought might be fun.
Experiment was the fun in his life now when it came to this art. It at least kept him entertained. "Of course I have to supervise, though I won't hover." Thus he took to concentrating on what he was doing, and leaving her to her study at the other end of the table.

In fact...a little tap on Malvolence, and a little pinprick of a touch on that highly sensitive place in Zahara's mind. that lustful spot that was in gear. might be fun. but back to Piper.
"No...nightmare's have nothing in thier saliva that shoudl cause you any kind of pain. thier real danger isn't like that, it's thier ability to blend into and move about in shadows, and of course thier hard flaming hooves."

"Oh good...because I would be highly upset if that were so. This is my bracing hand, I need it for things." Yeah...she didn't seem to upset about a rather nasty horse bite now did she? Well she'd been through worse, what was a little bite. Piper flexed her fingers some before dropping her hand to her lap, putting it out of her mind. At least for the time being. "Well when and if these little guys can start doing that, I'll have to watch myself extra careful like won't I?" A poke at one of her streaks, seeing if the stuff was dry yet, which it was. Oh good. Getting up she walked over to stand next to Malik. "What are you doing out here anyway? Taking a break?"
