Sohalia
"The Academy - it's for magic, right?" she asked eagerly, wondering what it must be like to have magical powers. Of course, as an Attuned, she had her own variant of magic - her ability to shift - but there was something different about the Abandoned's abilities that had always fascinated the girl. As she replaced her parka, if only so she didn't have to carry it, she asked, "Are there many Abandoned in Halo?" She thought of home and their ban on magic users wistfully. If only there was something she could do about it.
Shaking herself, she paid attention to Tal. A spa sounded lovely, and certainly like something that she could check out at some point. It would be even better with a friend, and her mind started wandering through her list of friends to see who she might be able to invite to join her. Maybe Soleil? The girl had said that she was from Halo, right? But then Tal said something about hot springs, and Soh tilted her head to one side, a faint blush mantling her cheeks. Her most recent experience with hot springs had been with Koa - something she looked back on with both pleasure and sadness, knowing that she was going to have to end things with him sooner than later.
But Tal didn't need to know the struggles of her love life, so she banished those thoughts from her mind. "That all sounds lovely," she told the courier smoothly. "Although - I wasn't really prepared for hot springs. I didn't bring anything to wear."
