Markus only looked at Emily through the corner of his eye, but he did watch her all the same. He didn't prod her while she finished her work on the current rune and looked up to meet her gaze when she turned towards him. He couldn't help but smile as she tucked her hair and spoke up. He would be lying if he said he wasn't glad that there was, in fact, no fireball. However, that didn't answer his question, so he raised an eyebrow and let out a small laugh.
“Well, that is good to hear; at least, that means it isn't a common occurrence,” he said, shaking his head. He still wasn't quite sure what was common and what wasn't. After all, he knew of at least three people who had underworld train experiences. However, even with that in mind, he knew if he had based his entire worldview of the supernatural on only his experiences, then he was sure a lot more people would be dead. He wondered if that made him just really unlucky.
“I would still love to hear about some of your experiences. If you are willing to share, of course.” He added, prodding still. “Sorry to ask, but this all still feels so new to me.”
