this is a voicetest
ok so there is a witch all up in your business
there are a multitude of ways in which she might be up in your business
1) you're off to slay the beast! stocking up on supplies in Res Trenodian, journeying through the forests and mountains to the cave, in the cave itself...or maybe you've killed the basilisk already and are doing a victory pose. idk you are being a brave serpent-vanquishing warrior and then you see this witchy girl coming towards you.
2) you are an Interesting Person and this fucking witch will not stop following you holy shit. no she can't touch your horns. no she can't buy you dinner, the food in this city is awful anyway. no you don't want to talk about your unique magical ability or the fact that you come from another world or whatever that stuff is none of her business. no you don't want to stay at her place that's creepy and not okay.
3) YOU SAID YOU WOULDN'T STAY AT HER PLACE oh god why are you chained to a table oh god. oh god those implements look sharp and harmful and what's going onaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa hi hello please don't vivisect me (this option is potentially really awful)
4) or maybe you're too cool and powerful and godlike for that shit. that's awesome, let's sit have some tea and talk about being Significant People Not Ordinary Things. __/\__/\__/<- (it's a snake)

It can only be 2.
indeed
Rieda has all the time in the world - she can follow him at a distance all day, waving a handkerchief at her side to catch his trails of magic. She'll persevere until you confront her!]
no subject
... Okay you've been following him for awhile now. They're not quite to the boarder of Littleroot Town yet, but she's definitely well past the boarder of creepy territory. This is going to end now before you can figure out where he lives or something.
He sighs in defeat.]
Okay you win. What do you want, money?
2!
no subject
But a person with holos patrolling the area? The little automatons sense the irregularity in your magic; you are not human, and the near-invisible constructs shimmer for a moment like heat mirages as they alert their caster.
Rieda pauses where she is, hand hovering in the air - then points, and waits as the butcher wraps the piece of meat, and leaves the shop with her purchase in her basket.
And then she goes to find this traveler that's got her constructs in such a tizzy.]
no subject
He's relatively unaware that he's being followed, at least for now.]
no subject
...yup, there he is. Triangulation never fails.
Rieda stays at a distance, acting preoccupied, keeping track of the boy with the holos. As she looks over a stall of odds and ends, she mutters an incantation, combining two of the constructs into one hand-sized, ethereal form, like a moth made of quivering air and magic made liquid. It flaps and flutters down to Silver, floating around within his line of sight but out of his reach.]
no subject
Seriously, what the hell is this thing? He remains more alert, seeing if he can sense some sort of source instead of tuning things out to pay attention to trading things.]
no subject
It darts higher for a moment as a breeze passes, then floats back down, then drifts along the avenue and around a corner.]
no subject
...But that's not his business, but he's curious, but...
Alright, alright, he's following this stupid thing.]
no subject
This street is less crowded - there aren't so many stalls set up in the road, and fewer people are heading towards the shops here. There's a young woman sitting on a box by one storefront, wearing a rough traveler's cloak and holding a basket between her knees. She's sorting through it and a coin pouch at once, counting and figuring.
The fluttering construct seems to be going towards her.]
THIRD TIME'S THE CHARM
oh u
Immediately the girl hooks her arm through the basket handle, stands up, and claps her hands together in one smooth, spontaneous motion.]
Ahahahaha, he likes you-!

[Could if you tried. It's pure magic - manufactured, but still magic straight through.]

[The thing flutters back over to her and lands on her shoulder...and just kind of soaks into her and disappears.]
You sure don't look the type to let shinies take time out of your day. Got an eye for spellcasting?
