He doesn't go too high or for too long yet, but yes! We showed him a few tips. His wings are really small so it doesn't work the same way. They're like a fairy's.
Some magicians can't teach their abilities to others. Believe me. I've asked.
The idea of him being a fairy makes sense. You did just find him out in the wilderness. Do you think he's from this place, or came from somewhere else, like we did?
Someone said he was a prize for surviving a trial once, but I don't really like to think of him that way. He's been a gift for me, though. If he's from somewhere else, I don't know. He doesn't act like he has a home to go back to, but he is different from anything in Trench.
Do magicians not teach because they can't or they don't want to expose their secrets?
He was born here, wasn't he? There's where your line comes from, and then there's where your home is. They can be very different things. His home is with you, either way.
Most of them say it's because they can't. I believe about half of them. (I think they underestimate me as a student.)
I'm learning from a book, so not entirely by myself.
I know I can trust you. I just wanted to thank you for your gift, from before. It's been good to know I have something to take care of myself if I get burned, although I haven't yet.

It must be all the good care you've been giving him. You can tell how healthy and happy he is.
I'm impressed that he can fly. Did you and Perle help him learn?

So that's another one of his magic tricks. He's a powerful little creature. It's a good thing he's surrounded by positive influences.
(I'm sure he's already forgotten all about being scared.)

Technically it was! I wonder if he could do it again, but it's usually different every time.

Oh.
He is an impressive creature. Do you think he's some kind of magician?
no subject
I think he's a fairy.

I want to be the best home I can be.
And I think you should still try. It can be a secret.

I am good at secrets, it's true.

I am trying. I'm getting better at it.

Is this a secret?

I've been learning about fire magic.

It's safe with me, either way! Are you learning by yourself?

How is your medical training going?

My work is going well! I have homework while Mr. Nehan goes on and expedition.
no subject
That's probably why I haven't singed myself yet. You're keeping me honest.
What's your homework?
no subject
I remember
I need to detail emergency scenarios and what needs to be done to save the person. I did two, I have five more to go.
no subject
When you're done, would you send it to me as well as your teacher? I'd like to see what you're learning, too.
