Reeve smiled a bit. "So it is true... your thirsty for both knowledge and power." He tilted his head. "Don't get me wrong, it is not a bad thing... You just never struck me as the kind fo person to want to learn such spells."

"Knowledge and knowledge of power. I feel to desire knowledge of power is different than desiring power." she said this with confidence. But her body language felt different, preparing for what she found to be the inevatble next step; telling her she is weak, foolish, undeserving, cowardly ...

"Knowledge is power, and power is nothing without knowledge. Therefore, desiring knowledge is just like desiring power." Reeve said as he chuckled, his smile getting somewhat larger. "The ancient power went into you freely, meaning you have promise with it... but I warn you, there is a price."

"There is always a price, is there not? Now whether or not I feel that it may be acceptable or not .. is still left for me to decide. I do not know enough about this magic yet to have an opinion of it or make decisions about it." she turned to him again, but did not close the distance between them. It was in this moment that she realized she may have said too much, given the wrong impression. She was very private and speaking of all this was not natural to her. "Does this change your opinion of me?

"Hmm, you think ahead too..." He smiled to her. "My opinion of you stays its course, thought now I understand you better..." Reeve tilted his head a bit. "But I also know that you are very soft-natured, this magik may not be for you..."

Tilting her head, she gazed upon his form. There were many things to ponder with those words. Inhaling deeply, she dropped her gaze. "Indeed. When I find that I cannot learn, it ends there. But I do not make it a habit let others tell me what I have the ability to learn or not as I have proven them wrong on a number of occasions. Even the most unwilling of persons .." she reached in to her pocket and removed a small black orb. Holding it in her hand, she concentrated for a moment. The orb exploded into black liquid which then oozed back in to its original shape in her hand. With a small sigh, she returned it to her pocket.

"I did not mean that you would be unable to do the tasks, but that you would not want to." Reeves smile faded a bit. "the magik will not accept you unless you willingly do something that you will regret for the rest of your existance..."

"Yes, indeed. The object I had just now was something Mr Yawgmoth fabricated for me. Before he will even consider sharing any of his knowledge of me, both he and I need do know if I understand the darkness.I can touch it but I cannot understand it. I will not be able to learn what he knows. Such is life." he said quietly. She studied him, dreadfully curious about what was on his mind, bored of talking about herself. "Anyway, where were we before speaking of this?"

"Hmm... You had asked me what I intended to do with the knowledge... and I told you. Did you have another question for me?" Reeve asked her, as he tilted his head. Questions he could answer, but mind he could nto read. One of the things thatt bothered him about people was that they were so secretive...

"Nothing further for this evening. Did .. did you have a question for me?" she asked quietly. Shifting her weight on her feet, she found the idea of looking at him currently to be uncomfortable and again looked off in to the distance.

"Hmm... what would you do if I were to tell you that I was in love with you?" The question was random and basically without purpose, but he wanted to witness her reaction.

Blue eyes fixed on the blind man, studying him. There was very little one could say to such a thing, especially when it was thought to be said as a joke. "I would say that it is rude to make light of such a thing." hugging her arms around her middle, she slowly turned away from him.

Reeve paused for a moment, then walked around her. He pulled off the blindfold and seemed to look at her, his blank eyes somehow studying her. "And suppose that I were serious, what would you say then?" His face was somewhat warm, yet stern and gave off no indication that this was a joke.

"I would .." she looked at him as he came around her, watching where he was moving, the expression on his face, the way he decided to remove the blindfold. At that moment, she did not know what to think, what to feel with such a thing. Though Reeve had announced himself to be a very open person on more than one occasion, she also knew him to try to play tricks. Lowering her gaze, she inhaled deeply. "I am uncertain. No one loves me in a way that one would declare that feeling when addressing me."

Reeve tilted his head a bit, then put his blindfold back on. Bowing, he said "Perhaps you need time to think of an answer. Many times answers come not to a person until later." He stood up again, smiling, then did something somewhat odd. Quickly he bent down and gently laid a kiss upon her forehead, beofr he turned and started to walk away.
Kain rose from the shadows a couple of feet before Reeve. It wore a white mask without a face painted on it, giving it a somewhat scary look. As Reeve went to it, it handed out another mask.
Reeve took the mask and put it on, walk of it was whit and the other half was black. On the white side there was half of a black painted face, where the face was smiling. On the black side the face was painted it white, and was crying. Both sides matched the other with great detail, though the faces were different. "I have to go now, bye bye." Was all that Reeve said before both he and Kain sank into the shadows.
