70 [Accidental Video]

[The PCD turns on to show an empty hallway of the Temple to Heaven, quiet and calm and free of disturbance. It’s swinging lightly, back and forth -- Rei is holding it as she walks down the halls, quiet and peaceful -- but she pauses, at a slightly open door, and her expression is curious as she pokes the door open with a slight nudge of her foot.

-=He's interested in the wards=-

Are there many things you must protect yourself from?

Video

[wingsandwill]

Enough. And some of these need to be applied over an area.

[golden_hawke]

Do you wish help? -=Because that's a lot of blood there, sir. He would know from look=-

Video

[wingsandwill]

No, I can manage.

[As far as he's concerned Rei is totally overreacting. 8| He can get another few sigils drawn before he starts running into blood loss complications, sheesh.]

-=He won't protest.=-

I wish you well, then.

-=a beat later=-

I do have a tea that will help strengthen the body after blood letting. I could bring some over later?

[wingsandwill]

[He hesitates a moment, but even though he hasn't spoken with Hawke much, he knows he's certainly not a threat. So eventually he nods.]

It would be appreciated.

-=He just wants to live his life quietly and help others. And keep his own magic on the downlow=-

I will come soon?

Video

[wingsandwill]

Any time would be acceptable.

[golden_hawke]

-=A brief nod.=-

Now, then. -=It would keep Rei from worrying too much.=-

Soon.

-=However long it takes to get to the temple, Hawke will be there with a satchel and approaching carefully as he feels the pull of the wards.=-

[The Temple is protected both by Rei's antievil and demon wards, and Castiel's angelproofing, but other than an odd feel they likely won't cause Hawke any issues to enter.

Castiel himself is outside at the moment, apparently gauging something about the walls of the Temple, judging by how he's looking them over. He does sense Hawke's arrival, and glances over to look at him.]

Hello.

[golden_hawke]

-=He's used to ethereal beings know his presence. Hawke lifts a hand in greeting as he turns his attention from the wards.=-

Hello. I have brought the tea.

[wingsandwill]

[Thankfully, he kept that ability, despite his loss of all others. It's a useful one.

He nods in greeting, and moves to open the door of the Temple to let Hawke inside. It's hot outside and Castiel is slowly learning actual politeness and customs.]

Thank you. Perhaps it will keep Rei from worrying so much.

[He's wrapped up his arm, but he has a lot more warding that needs done, and though he knows better than to overdo it, this might help.]

She does not understand that kind of magic. -=Most humans didn't. He bows his head as he passes Castiel, pausing to let the other lead the way.=-

Is it something you do often?

-=If the angel notices, there are thin, precise scars on Hawke's arms from the wrist to the elbow.=-

offline

[wingsandwill]

She has seen me do it before; it shouldn't come as a shock.

[He does lead the way in, toward the kitchen.]

Yes. Most warding and sigils need to be done in blood, particularly those I use.

[He's not all that observant, particularly about others, so he doesn't notice just yet.]

-=He nods slightly.=- They are the strongest protection. They are also the brightest and loudest and will attract attention.

-=which is why his home is unwarded. All he has are his own senses and the lockjaw guarding it.=-

[wingsandwill]

That they are noticeable isn't an issue. Regardless of awareness or not, they serve their purpose just as effectively.
