Lady Vega Arany of Vyrantium —

(Is an abrupt way to start a conversation, but there you go. Vega is uninterested in the fluff of hello, good to meet you and how are you doing. She cuts to the chase.) I'd like to ask you about your magic.

[reparo]

Hermione Granger. [ Which Lady Vega Arany of Vyrantium would know, given that she used her crystal to send the message, but - nevermind. Politeness. ]

Are any of the questions demands to stop using it and scaring off the civillians?

[succise]

(The politeness is silently appreciated.)

No. Are you doing that? They probably deserve it.

[reparo]

I haven't started running around Thedas, wand out, flinging fire all around to make a point, since I've heard that would land me in a cell.

[ A beat. ] Can I ask about the nature of your curiosity, first?

[succise]

(Dismissive,) Yes, they're very sensitive here.

I suppose you can; I am a mage and I'm interested in what your magic looks like, the forms that it takes and how you use it.

[reparo]

[ And the tone shifts. ]

Oh! Yes - of course you can. I'd love to understand how the magic here works, if you'd be open to a mutual demonstration?

[succise]

(Vega smiles suddenly.) Yes. I'll see your magic.

Where should we go?

[reparo]

You'll know best, I imagine - [ but don't think she didn't hear that deflection, ] - for a mutual demonstration.

[succise]

Outside is better, if you'd like it to be mutual.

(But she doesn't sound mocking, more excited.) When are you free?

[reparo]

[ Technically she's free right now, but Hermione doesn't want to sound uncool, so - ] Tomorrow, after breakfast? We may catch the sparring grounds free, with some luck.
