Rhen held back the smile began to creep across her face by nipping the tip of her tongue. She always enjoyed seeing Celeste riled up a bit by the chaos of the house. There was something about her feisty nature that Rhen adored. As Celeste came closer Rhen could see the fading shadows around her hands, she knew at that point that a lot of energy had gone into pulling forth the whispers of the shadows and certainly that the explosion broke the focus needed to complete. Still, Rhen gave an endearing little grin,<b>"Just a moment ... why do you automatically assume that I was a part of the explosion? I could have simply been an innocent bystander passing through."</b>a small laugh slipped her lips as she tried to fake innocence. She was almost always involved in the magical mishaps in the home. Rhen enjoyed pushing people who were just learning about their magic. Messes were easy to clean up and by allowing her mentees to remove their fear she saw greater learnings much quicker.<br/><br/>"Of course everything is okay," she tilted her head to the side letting the smile escape, "We were just... redecorating the classroom".  The presence of Celeste in a more calm state always made Rhen softer. Rhen reached out sliding the back of her fingers down the length of Celeste's arm until she reached her hands. "If you are taking a break, I think Nadia made snacks in the kitchen, she seemed rather alert this early in the morning. I think she's preparing to head out... Oh and Christopher is out in the garden near the old tree. He seems to be comfortable here, which is good."<br/><br/>"I am going to be heading into town soon. Do a bit of shopping that I've been pushing off for some time now. Do you need anything from me before I go?" she gave Celeste's hand a soft squeeze. Rhen loved the hustle of the nearby scene. The people were so full of life and entertainment. Most days Rhen could sit for hours and people watch. It was like a live television show that was full of plots and twist.
