"Not even a little? Also that's adorable! Elena! Meet Lucy!" Calleigh is not any quieter, "She's a wizard! And she's new! And her hair is PINK!"
What if they're not stars at all? What if the night sky is full of titanic far-off lidless eyes, staring in all directions across eternity?

"Shhh!" Elena waggles a finger in Calleigh's face. Keeping her voice down, "The others are working with Surraruthru on his tree project."

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Lucy curtsies, beaming at the blue girl! "A pleasure to meet you, Miss Elena!" she greets her, matching the quiet tone without losing any of the perkiness. "Are you the librarian? I believe we shall be ever so good friends!"

"I oversee all of Aurora, I'm just filling in since they're busy," Elena says, "That's Calleigh and Tryll's with her. Tryll's a sight, but don't be scared if you see him, he's nice."

"Gah! Eleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnnnnaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" Calleigh whines, "Why you gotta ruin the fun?"

"That's quite alright," Lucy assures Elena. "You're overworked and there's no one filling the position? In that case I would be delighted to offer my services!"

Not missing a beat, she looks over at Calleigh at her outburst. "Mmm, but since the cat is out of the bag, Calleigh, why don't you introduce us?"

"Calleigh points up with a grin, where an eye the size of a dinner plate phases into view. In her mind,m Lucy hears, 'Hello. I am Tryll. A pleasure to meet you, Lucy.'

"People who are loud in the library get no mercy!" Elena declares softly, before adding, "If you want that sort of position, hang around the library a lot and work your way into it. We're not going to offer someone brand new a serious position until they prove themselves. Vul'lath and Sylvie should be back soon."

That sounds a bit strange, but if Lucy looks at it like an apprenticeship she can make it work. "I cannot wait, Miss Elena!" she says excitedly, if suitably quietly.

Mentally, she sends a smile to Tryll, responding. 'A pleasure as well, Tryll. If that's not too forward of me, might I ask about your area of expertise in the fields of magical theory?'

'I am skilled in the use of psionics. In essence, a mage of the mind. Though I am also skilled in large explosions, much to Calleigh's delight. In terms of theory, I'm a bit general really. Much of my studies have been introspective.'

'That makes quite a deal of sense,' Lucy agrees. 'I'm striving towards forming a unified theory of magic, myself.'

"You two have fun," Elena says, vanishing after.

Go ahead and chat a little more as incoming things finish being incoming.

'A unified theory of magic? Please, explain what you mean.'

'Oh, certainly!' Lucy claims a chair and smooths out her skirt before sitting down. 'It is my attempt to prove that all magic is interchangeable, and there is only the matter of finding the many and varied ways of doing so and cataloging them as the preliminary stage to drawing larger conclusions. We already see this from many different directions, be it the versatility of spells of Wish's caliber that allow for the perfect replication of less powerful magic or in the affect standardized metamagic has on your spells. These methods allow for the crossing of what might seem quite rigid lines in magic, the borders between circles, between mortal and ascendant magic, even between so-called divine and arcane magic.'

She grows more and more animated as she speaks in Tryll's mind, gesturing as she gets into the explanation. 'Why do we divide magic into these seemingly different classifications? Because it is easier for us, because as a gross oversimplification this lowest denominator caters to those who only seek to grasp the basics of one routine. Yet, as we keep on pushing the envelop we suddenly learn that even one called a sorcerer by their peers would be able to use a spellbook, or a paladin would value common sense above the impulsiveness of their force of personality!'

Lucy's left arm gets briefly entangled in her hair and she spends a few moments extricating it. By then, the passion has mostly run out but she's smiling all the same as she concludes with, 'I want to give everyone more choices, because magic is wonderful!'

As Lucy talks, Sage Vul'lath and Sylvie enter through the portal, glancing at the three of you as they pass.
