many a blood red carpet my unsteady feet have trod

[heardmermaids]

Who: Sebastian and Martel
What: Meet, greet, and sharing time.
Where: Martel's abode. Yes, he has an abode.
When: Shundi
Warnings: None. Yet.

At the appointed time and place, Sebastian heads off to meet Martel. He's brought along a few things that he knows he'll need - wand, knife, and dog - and roughly thought through what he wants to say about how he'd learned that magic worked, how he lost his own, and why he thinks most of the rules in his world are a bit bunk. There's a moment where he thinks he ought to be nervous, but the edginess doesn't settle in.
