Ria' chuckled, clearly amused by Arthur's words. He wondered what would Pluto say to that. "Man, am I glad not to have classes with Magistrix Fen-Breath" he admitted. She looked scary - what if she turned him into a toad?! He wouldn't fit into his robes! And it would do such horrors to his complexion!
He put the scrap of fabric chosen by Susie atop his very cluttered desk so that he wouldn't forget about it. As he placed it carefully on one free square of space, something poked his wrist. Oh no. Not this shit again.
'This shit' was a small time spirit bound in a hourglass the previous occupant of the room left. It didn't take a long time to guess why - it was incredibly obnoxious. Ria has made the mistake of telling it his schedule, hoping to take advantage of its affinity to time, and now the blasted thing kept bothering him. It was clearly displeased with its imprisonment so it took its frustration out on him by droning endless reminders about his next class - it was fifteen minutes and thirty four seconds until his lesson, it was fifteen minutes and twenty nine second until his lesson... He ended up bribing a dwarf classmate to get a silencing spell from her, which partially solved the problem. Now that the spirit was silenced, it could only grab at whatever was in range - in this case, his wrist.
"One day, I will just throw you out of the window and get some peace of mind" he grumbled. Perhaps he should do it right now, but as he reached for the source of his frustrations, a ray of sunlight fell on his hand. If the sun was shining through the window, it meant that the time was- Oh no!
He promised Vesyll they'd meet for lunch! While the gnome was not the kind of a person to hold being late or even not showing up against him, she also wouldn't keep a seat for him forever. He would have to hurry if he wanted to make it! "I made plans with a friend for lunch" he began to explain the situation to Arthur. "I have to go soon. Do you want to come by later to discuss the blanket cape? You could pick what you want it to be made from, the colour and all the fun things!"
