She nodded again, mentally jotting down a few notes for research.
"Well, try something. Telekinesis, perhaps?" A delicate gesture indicated the book lying in the grass a few yards away. "I believe that is a sufficient target."

"I don't mean to sound naive, but how exactly does telekinesis work?"
For something that looked like an all powerful being, he was quite inexperienced with his new powers.
"My Demon was all rip and tear, and when I lost him I lost the knowledge we gained when we assimilated your powers."

"Moving objects with the mind, nothing more." She said, purposefully ignoring the comment about the theft of her magic. 'Twas a sore spot still, but she was not about to let her own pride get in the way.

"Okay then."
He let his energy flood outward, his focus had to be precise, and as his body began to become wispy and distort, he let out a gasp, his eyes flashing with blue aura, as a bolt of Ethereal energy shot from between his brow and collided with a tree. Instantly the tree began to ice from the intense spiritual force, but at the center of the blast lay a small impact hole, where the blast penetrated the tree.
"That wasn't telekinesis."
He sighed, and tried again, his body became wispy again and the area around him began to drop in temperature as his energy began to flood outward.
"Moving objects with the mind."
He focused on the book and held out a hand as if to grasp the spine of the text. Instead of moving the book, it was immediately set ablaze by blue flame. The Ethereal quickly waved his hand as if to put out the fire and as if responding to him, the flame swayed with his hand movements before returning to him and mixing with his body. The book miraculously was fine just slightly cooler and shimmering with Ether.

"Hmm..." A few more mental notes were taken as she noted the state of her book. She was glad it was undamaged, that grimoire was priceless. "Perhaps some sort of material focus is in order. Do have any object that you carry habitually? A weapon of some sort? Swords are a popular favorite."

I see the angels, I'll lead them to your door... Lightning stepped out of the portal, drowsy and awfully tired.
She fell into a raft on the pool, stiff as a log. ...There's no escape now, no mercy no more.

"To be honest the only weapon I ever had was that demon arm."
the thought gently graced his mind, yet he cast it aside.
"If anything could I craft my own "weapon" per say?"
He thought of using his energy to maybe forge a sword of some sort or create a medium to harness his powers.
"Do you think Runes would help?"

"Runes would certainly help. Keep in mind that there is only so much I can do, most of it is up to you and very, very specific to the individual." A few moments later, she added, "What sort of runes?"

"Well I'm not sure exactly, I figured Runes and other Magical mediums would be in your area of expertise."
He thought for a second, The only runes he really knew of were Divination runes. However Divination runes couldn't help him in this situation.
"Yeah I'm kinda of shot for ideas."

"As am I, unfortunately. Your energies seem dependent on your will alone, but a focus is probably needed." She sighed, calling the book to her with a subtle twist of her fingers.

"Well once again I thank you for your assistance."
He allowed himself to sit down and think, mediatate if you will.
"Well seeing as we're at a standstill as far as thought is concerned, maybe we can take this time to start over?"
To be honest he didn't condone what his Demon did and now that he had time to try to make amends, he was willing.

"If you wish." She still stood, the silver embroidery on her dress moving faintly against its pitch-black background. She did not know the nature of the entity that had taken her powers before, but she would have sensed if it was still with him. Seeing as it was not, she was willing to make amends.

The Ethereal felt a wave of relief wash over him, without that battle-lusting demon possessing his body he could actually interact with people.
"Well if you don;t mind me asking, have you ever done the whole "help" thing before?"
His center of calm increased as his body began to distort and become wispy yet again. His eyes were closed a faint line of Ethereal blue pulsing where the energy fought to escape. His body began to lift off the ground as he waited for Emma's response. All the while a smirk on his face as he was completely oblivious to his body's levitation.

"Many times, but not for a while." She had been many things over the centuries, mentor and student, hero and villain...
The levitation was noted with a slight hint of pride, and she sat on the grass, rearranging her skirts as she curled her legs beneath her.

"So what kind of magic is out of your boundaries, you mentioned it when I asked about restoring my body."
As he floated the area began to chill slightly as his energy once again began to spill outward. His eyes opened and he soon realized he was floating only to lose focus and fall gently down to the Earth.
"Being an Ethereal Entity is fine and all, but it's just not the same."
Still he would have to live with it for now.
"Also as far as the medium goes, can it be anything?"
