Those minor char marks thankfully weren't noticed. Not that Gau hadn't been doing some spectacular things to the curtains, pillows, and blankets in his own lonely dorm room (The fourth years underneath had to be getting used to some pretty alarming noises and G-rated exclamations at odd hours of the night and the crack of dawn by now...) but the idea of repairing rips and tears in the upholstery by hand wouldn't have struck him as at all odd, even if it had to be done by hand. This wouldn't be something he'd be likely to live down if people caught sight of him with his half-moon upholstry needles, and thread, repairing the furniture with his typical look of scowling anal retentive determination.

Still, he paid attention to Lluvia, and watched the water in her hands with an expression of genuine astonishment. "The...rain followed you? That's..." Wait. Was that even possible? Well weather magic was probably possible, right? And that had to be pretty powerful...

Gau came to a decision on the subject rather quickly--
IMPRESSIVE.

"Your...aptitudes are probably really powerful at least. All I can do is cook." He groused. "That is...weather magic is powerful, right?" He frowned at the sofa arm in front of him, thinking hard.

"In cooking, having moisture present in foods is important! Dried out cake is inedible! So being adept with liquids should help!" This was sated with the factual determination of one putting a round peg in a round hole--as if that was just the way the universe worked in the little Lluvia-shaped hole in his brain..
