"I didn't know 'to prevent me from harming others' wasn't a strong enough argument."

*She took a seat beside Terrel though with a noticable gap between them. She couldn't say she was thrilled by this turn on events. That her healing from blood was a defining piece of info he needed. Granted she didn't use blood to heal, she always had faith magic for that.*

"Let's see. It heals me a little. Gives me just a tiny bit of mana. Oh, how could I forget. It makes me want to rip the throat out of people every few days." 

*She wished she had spent time healing her voice, it was the only thing preventing her from yelling at him. She disliked the implications hidden in his words as well.*
Lewis
*He'd place the book down in the space between them, allowing her to get a chance to look at it while he'd lean back on the bed. The Elf would gaze at her, the tone of annoyance obvious in her showing of sarcasm. He didn't care much for it, but he let her say what she wanted without interruption. Getting oneself hurt that bad was bound to warrant negativity.*

"Manon there's nothing wrong with its original purpose. It's just finding more that gives it more use. And now we know what to do if you ever run out of mana."*He'd say casually. It tended to be hard to allow her to find the positives in things relating to her Vampire side, but he'd attempt to nonetheless.*"You're a vampire. We both know that now. Any positives to it should at least be a step in the right direction."

*He knew that Vampires had more capabilities than that. What they were he had yet to learn, but he doubted he'd get much out of Manon for her hatred of that side of her. The Elf would turn his gaze back down to the book.*"You want some water?"*He'd eventually ask her, shifting away from the topic before more spite could be built.*
Charlie
*She extended her hand to accept his offer of water. She still didn't understand "Step in the right direction" He spoke of. She shook her head from side to side. 'We both know that now' As if last night confirmed something he previously didn't know before.*

*She brought the water to her mouth before tilting her head back. She was far more thirsty than she thought as she finished the contents. Even a bead of water dripped down from the corner of her lip before she finished. She decided to hand the waterskin back to him.*

"Are you reading this purely for understanding or are you going to practice something with better results than I just had?"
Lewis
"Practicing is far out of the question for me and you know that. All I can do with this book is learn what I'm working with. As far as actually going through with it, that will have to be all you."*He'd explain as he took the waterskin back.*"Whether you prefer it or not, I think Fire is a great element to wield despite your 'personality' being the general opposite. It's something to fall back on when healing won't save you."

*The Elf couldn't think of much more to explain to her. She wasn't one for destruction or fighting and having an element that was the complete opposite to her would only serve her hatred for it. Internally he wondered if there would ever be a situation where fire was most needed only for the Vampiress to reject the idea of trying it again. The Elf would close the book, sliding it over to her.*"I can only be the idea person as far as this book allows me, but if you prefer avoiding your own abilities then there's no helping with that."
Charlie
"I can't think of a single situation where you or nature can't solve. Truth is, you don't know what I can do."

*She placed a hand on the pages and pushed the book towards Terrel. Shortly after she stood up from the bed and began walking towards the door.*

"If you think whispering to animals and healing is all I'm capable of, then you should really read the book. I'm going to go lay down, wake me up when it's time for us to leave."

*Manon didn't wait for a reply before she left. It was clear that he didn't understand that fire was more than just a destructive school. If God and Goddess did exist, if people were given affinity for magic based on divine intervention. Then one could assume what plans were in store for her. Fire wasn't chaotic, it was unbiased cleansing. It made her wonder what her goals were, if not to be a doctor*
Lewis
*Terrel would watch her walk off, not responding before she'd leave to go lay down for a while. She did have a point, he didn't know what she can do. After all, he only ever knew what she showed him. The Elf would gaze down at the book, sudden thoughts of being back in magic school bouncing in his head at the thought of reading it. He did ask for it and if that was the only way he was going to know what a mage was fully capable of without being at the blunt end of their magic, then so be it.*

"Sleep well Manon..."*He'd say in a tone so low, she most likely wouldn't hear it. The Elf would open the book and turn to the chapter regarding Nature magic, the other to which he had little knowledge of. It was odd how mechanical most elemental spells seem where areas this required more tactic, but he was going to learn about it one way or another and, with the whole day to his disposal, now was no better time to. He'd lift his legs up onto the bed, coming to lay prone on it as he'd open the book to look through it.*
