Elizabeth
She nods her head, smiling as she thinks about all the Abandoned congregated in Halo. "There are. We even had an Academy for a time. It's great to have community with fellow magic users wherever you are." For trainings or just having someone else understand the struggles of magic, it's something she recommends to everyone.
Elizabeth blushes, realizing how her recent discovery might have twisted her words to reveal more than she meant. She still has more to learn about the magic, but she hopes it's not telepathy, and her hands wave between them to dismiss the slip of tongue. "What? Oh no no no. I meant telekinesis, not telepathy. I can move stuff with my mind, not read other people's." She laughs, nervous as she lifts a finger to move the spoon back into her hand, offering Niki a small smile. "See?"
Ready to move on from that uncomfortable topic, Elizabeth shifts in her seat, setting the plastic spoon in one of the containers to dispose of. "Oh. Summoning." She smiles, obviously interested in the magic, one she hasn't had many opportunities to observe. Perhaps next time she'd ask to see it, but for now, she'd settle for knowing that he enjoys what he does, nodding her head in resolute agreement. "I certainly understand that."
Glancing at the line, she shifts reluctantly to her feet. "That sounds like a great idea. I should probably get going anyways. Halo is a long ways off." Elizabeth tucks her errant strand of hair back behind her ear, grinning politely as she gathers the residue of their meal. "It's been a pleasure eating with you, Niki. I look forward to seeing you around more."
