I saw a piece of heaven
Studying had sort of been her thing while she was with her mother, but of course there were blank spots yet to fill in. Seren did not actually know everything, as this encounter clearly demonstrated. The idea of giving yourself a name was new, and being propositioned in this manner... that was simply unheard of. And Seren's reaction to it was perhaps not the most graceful.
One moment she was sitting in the grass with Maeve, getting her hair tucked and cheek touched. The next Seren had bolted, shooting backwards like a cork from a champagne bottle. A soft 'whoof' escaped her as her back collided with a tree a few yards away. And there she remained. Hovering, inexplicably, with her feet far off the ground, light as a feather and very unwilling to come back down.
"Don't..! That is - thanks, but it's not..." Blushing furiously the girl stammered and tried in vain to produce anything intelligent. Failing that, she closed her mouth tightly. Wishing it wouldn't be too much of an exaggeration to sink through the ground. She could, in a fashion... but yeah. This was overly dramatic already. So Seren thought, even as her heart hammered away in half panic.

Waiting, impatient, for me
