WHAT || Mars finally meeting up with Cisco after the party.
WHERE || Around the castle.
WHEN || Backdated to May, a week after Cisco was squired.
HOW || prose

Mars took more than a couple days before sending a message to his new squire. He had busied himself with other things and lost track of time. He was waiting in the Garden to meet him at first. Venus was chasing insects around while Mars was sitting on a bench reading while he waited for the other. He wasn't off to a good start at being a mentor in his own opinion but that didnt mean he would give up.

She rewards the good behavior with a purr. She likes this human.

"Did this happen in a bad side of town or something?" He asked curiously, shifting to just sit down on the ground to listen to the other explain. "Understandably, thats only natural."

"I was just curious, I'm not really good with science and stuff but I've always been intrested. I grew up on Bill Nye and Beakman's World." Likely not something to say to a legit scientist but, eh. Mars is an optimist.

The purring is just evil. It's a trick to get him to pet her more, so she'll purr more. He sees what you're up to, cat.

"Kind of? But mostly we just have bad luck, I think." Aside from a few, like Firestorm, or Plastique, the metas have been mostly rogues.

He laughs at the 90s kids TV references. "Dude, why do you think I became a scientist? Bill Bill Bill Bill Bill." He even does the dorky voice.

[charismapotion]

The cat thinks shes very smart, and will keep putting and snuggling his leg till she gets more tribute.

"I guess that would make sense." He gave a nod. Then laughed when Cicso did the dorky voice and held his hand out for a high five. "Oh hell yes, were going to get along JUST fine!"

[picksthenames]

He tries to hold out but that snuggling is just too much. Have some more scritches, you dastardly feline.

High fives are go! "So what kind of stuff does a squire-knight relationship entail? I don't have to like, clean up after you or anything, do I?"

[charismapotion]

Victory for Zim Venus. She purrs more.

"Oh not much really, my knight rarely spoke to me outside of parties and random meetings. Just think of me as more of a friend who can explain stuff. No, you dont need to clean up after me, I have spells that do that anyway." he replied with a grin.

[picksthenames]

"Right," Cisco says, rubbing his hands on his thighs. "About those spells. You were going to give me a demonstration?"

He's still somewhat skeptical that magic is even real, and the whole shadow-kind thing isn't just metahuman activity gone beserk.

[charismapotion]

"I was waiting to see if you brought it up." He admitted with a grin as he bounced once before taking two long strides backwards from Cisco. He lifted both hands up, and cast Burning Hands. Semi-circles around his hands going as high as ten feet started to burn flickering in and out as he moved his hand around.

"Everyone like's fire right?" He liked to show off even if he knew he shouldn't.

[picksthenames]

Okay, that's... definitely real fire. Even from here, Cisco can feel the heat of it. And it just appeared. But this isn't too different from what Firestorm can do. Cisco's still not convinced it's magic.

"Fire's good, but I've seen it before. What else you got?"

[charismapotion]

Mars took a step back, more like two more strides. "This one I'm still learning to control" He lifted his hands up and casted Shocking Grasp, sending lightning from his fingers. VERY careful not to burn any of Vee's flowers. It clearly took more concentration for the tall mage. He moved his hands down then and muttered something low as mist started to form around him and the eletricity stopped.

[picksthenames]

Okay, fire, electricity, and now mist. Cisco's a little more impressed. Still not totally convinced it's magic and not just a metahuman with elemental abilities. But he doesn't feel like arguing.

"Impressive. So is it all about summoning various elements?"
