Unfortunately, I don't think either of us could manage a spell to keep us awake for that length of time. I'd worry too much about our mental state of being.
[Cup found, let him quickly taste... oh, this is actually better than he expected! Terrific.]
I suppose that is a lot of assumption on my part, though. What would you call yourself, Ithaqua?
An abominable snowman, if you will. [Well, that's more of what the townspeople call him-- even the name he's called by comes from them. The title of "beast" comes from him and him alone.]
Heheheh! I appreciate that statement. [And he tilts his head, one of the ears of his hood twitching.]
One may say appearances can count as making one beastly. [Then he waves a clawed hand at the mask. That's never coming off for anyone.
He doesn't point out the state of his limbs though. That's not as evident with his clothing.]
However, it's what inside that counts, as with everything. I am not human, yes, but I am not any of the other beings that walk the earth, aside from a beast. [maybe]
[So something's being hidden here. The vibes of this guy definitely scream monster over man, despite how eloquent he is. But Solomon's met plenty of demons that could meet the same description.]
Is it a title you wear with pride, or simply something that others have given you?
[It's a polite and attentive statement, but far more investigative over anything else.]
I don't know too many that would enjoy being called a beast, human or otherwise. It suggests something pretty primal.
[He's finally going to work on putting out that fire - his wand waves with no reaction at first, getting a pulled look from him at his focus. But he starts as though remembering something, an embarrassed chuckle as he instead fills a cup with water and douses the flames. Right, right, no instant magic anymore. Gotta get used to that.]
That's quite the name for humans to give to you. How exactly do you feel about humans in return?
I feel that goes without saying. Just don't jump to too many conclusions about what the world may do before we've barely begun.
[He gets the gut feeling that Ithaqua may very well steer towards the cynical, and while there was nothing wrong with that... what kind of mess would they be in if he considered something relatively minor to be an escalation? It's hard to tell.]

[Interesting. He lowers his spoon, a careful drift of his eyes to look at Ithaqua a little more closely. Does he still have his mask on?]
And what makes you a beast, dear Ithaqua? You do have a striking appearance.

[And yet it's no different from what he calls himself now. Simply... more sensationalized. More to evoke fear.]
no subject
[Is he dealing with an actual cryptid here? How neat...]
no subject
Heheheh! How did you guess?

[Ithaqua taps at the chin of his mask, claw clinking against it.]
If they do not bother me, I shan't be difficult to them. [And that's putting it quite mildly.] Best we stay in entirely different worlds.
no subject
[Concern.jpg, but so long as the balance stays tipped towards not pissing Ithaqua off, he can consider it a stalemate.]
Do you plan on extending that in our current situation as well? The majority of this world is human, as I'm sure you're aware.
no subject
[Because they're clearly dependent on the wizards, weak as they are. It's something to lord over them.]
no subject
I see.
It seems like the views towards the magical broadly depends on the country. Do you know which one you've been assigned?
no subject
[Which is to say, it's not so different from what he knows.]
no subject
I doubt abuse of our power is going to be the main concern. But we'll have to see what happens.
no subject
I feel abusing our power is the least of our worries in this moment, when we've none.
[It rankles, okay.]
