Ahito's room is a sleek affair, with a dark grey accent wall preventing the place from being a sterile white, and comfortable brown leather furniture matching with the similarly colored bookshelves. In spite of his delinquent attitude, a fine wooden desk stands near a wall equipped with pens, inkwells, and paper, with plenty of room to reference a heavy textbook or two. The drawers contain similar stationary supplies, though the lowest and largest of them features a lock paired with a small key Ahito keeps on his person.
On the wall next to the desk is a large corkboard with ample room to pin up notes and reminders, and not far away is a simple full-sized bed with navy blue bedding and a nearby nightstand with a lamp.
The attached bathroom is small, with a toilet, sink, and mirror that doubles as a medicine cabinet. A narrow, open storage space near the sink houses towels and toiletries, and a shower/bath combination is separated from the rest of the room by a black curtain.

[Sometimes you just wander the house being nosey to see where people are mingling around... he's not always successful at catching everyone, but he does at least catch Ahito later in the day after their first talk. Good, good, he didn't stay tucked in bed.]
Ah, so you are alive. Good morning, little prodigy.
You missed quite a bit of practice time, you know.

[Making a face at being referred to as a prodigy. Being good at magecraft isn't something he seeks.]
Oh, it's... what's-your-face.

I'm not interested in excelling at magic. ...But if you must, you can call me Ahito.
Where I'm from, it causes a lot more trouble than it's worth. And this place doesn't seem to have any good resources for me to see just what the differences are.
Why would I be?
[He says, as if this guy ought to trust him at his word despite clearly not returning the favor.]
Anyway, based on what they've said so far, I'm wondering if there's even a system to it. Or at least, a system in the way my world's works.

Who knows? I'd rather not assume. There's a lot of difference in worlds between the couple dozen members of this house.
[It's cool, buddy, he's used to not being trusted.]
All magic has a structure of some sort, even if it seems disordered. I'll take it you're not used to it being conjured from feelings.

Nope. Usually it depends partially on how you go about casting... A spell cast with a magic circle's going to come out differently than a spell applied with a potion.
The sage wasn't much help, and neither was his pipsqueak assistant. Hitting the books might really be the only option after all.
[He sounds... SO thrilled.]

There's only one way to find out, right? Unless you've got information to offer.
Who said anything about looking forward to it?
[Give him the deets grandpa!!]

No thanks, I don't need an audience to do a little research.
[Mmmmmmmmmmmgh...
He doesn't look thrilled, but:]
Fine. A second pair of eyes is better than one.
[Or whatever his eyesight counts as, being practically half blind and all.
To the library!]

That's the spirit.
[Away they go! At the very least, if his body language is anything to go by as they walk, Solomon's fine with treating Ahiro like a possible peer rather than a child. Mostly.]
Are you fluent in more than one language? The material is pretty varied.

[...He honestly did not even think about other languages up until now.]
Only my country's. What languages are used for the books?
