Maq chuckled at the shade of red that crept over Ian's features. "Glad you like the way you look; woulda been a kick in the a** if you'd hated it." He looked Ian over again, then tilted his head to one side, thinking. "Is that all you got, then? A new look?"

"I also know some kick a** spells. Some nice heat ones. I can burn someone if I want too," he said, laughing. "But I won't use it unless I have too."

"Someone other than me, ya mean," Maq stated wryly. So Ian had gotten Heat? Very interesting. "You'd probably just tickle me if you tried."

Ianios raised an eyebrow. "Now, why in the he ll would I try to burn you? Sheeze, Maq, you're my teacher! Aria would never speak to me if she found out I even tried!" He shook his head. "Kira...she rarely does, but I rather enjoy having Aria around."

"Who else you gonna try it on?" Maq laughed at the expression on Ian's face. "I don't see you racking up the enemies."

The former plant feien shrugged. "No idea, but you never know. Could come in handy if someone big like our bonds just plucked me out of the air."

He nodded, giving Ian that. Hadn't really considered it; Maq was more of one of those take-it-as-it-comes kinda guy.

"Makes sense to plan ahead, you know?" Ian said, running a hand through his hair. "Can't go through life and not expect the unexpected."

A shrug rippled over Maq's broad shoulders. "Train up, and you'll be prepared for anything. That's my motto."
With a wide grin, he looked at Ian again. "You've been practicing, right?"

"But of course!" Ian said with a wide grin. "Everyday, without fail." He looked at Maq. "Why wouldn't I?"

"Some folks get soft when I'm not around." He got ready to take another playful swipe at Ian when he remembered he had Ian's letter in his hand. With a wry chuckle, Maq lifted the paper up to eyeheight. "Bert'll be happy to get this, most likely."

Ian smirked. "Not me. And you need to deliver that. We're both ready to meet the boy." He playfully punched Maq in the arm.

Of course, punching Maq's arm was like punching a post of marble, so he merely grinned at Ian. "I'll take it over as soon as you leave. Now, ya gonna leave sometime soon, or am I going to have to toss you out?" A wink accompanied the threat.

Ian laughed. "Trying to get rid of me, eh? Fine. I know I'm not wanted." He sniffed, but he was trying to not laugh. "He glanced at the clock. "Yeah, I should get going anyway. See you later, Maq."He took off towards the door, turning around before leaving. "Aria said to tell you you're welcome over anytime."

With a laugh, Maq used his left hand to shove Ian towards the door. "Tell Aria I'll see her sometime soon, then." Another joking shove, and he added, "Now get the hell out of my House."
