Billy stood at the shoreline. That point of sand and rock that held the waves from the true ground. It was cold, and he was wearing a hoodie and a few layers. He didn't want to get too close to the water- his luck was never that solid when it came to this beach. Still, this was the best place he could think of for this after looking at his notes. Sure he could find substitutes, plenty, but for the strongest connection in his mind this place was best. And for a first go he wanted the best chances. Billy was stalling circling his own thoughts like the large owl circled overhead, hidden behind the illusion bracelet it had on its leg.
Reaching out a hand, with a small glass vial between his fingers, Billy let his eyes lose focus and drew in the feeling of the area. Sifting it for the specific intent of that border between the water and the dry. A touch of wind kicked up and Billy sealed the bottle, noting a few small grains of sand in it and a well of potential. His magic was like that, working off of idea and intent. He understood it better now than he had read through his father's grimoire... the Watcher's grimoire.
Billy pocketed the little vial and hefted his bag over his shoulder. This was a good start but now he needed to get to more solid ground, the sand was fine but wind or wave might damage any circle he drew there so- He turned his head as he heard someone speaking. They were here? After a search he spotted some guy standing facing the water and looking poorly dressed for it.
“Hey there... you ok?” Billy called out.
You borrow trouble William. Thought the owl at his wizard, but Billy ignored it and started walking toward the other man on the beach.
