Rune makes a pleased noise and continues mutual scritching.
"It was - "
He doesn't think he remembers the name, or at least not confidently enough
to state it now, but the muscle memory is still there. His hands move, he
feels something indescribable catch on - and rainbow colour starts to flow
from his fingertips, like he's painting in midair.
Honestly, he hadn't expected him to actually do it. His scratching finger stops in mid-air as he looks at what Credence is doing, as the rainbow sprouts from his fingertips. He's transfixed. It's probably the coolest thing he's ever seen, and it might be because it's Credence doing it.
"That's awesome," he says, once his surprised has morphed into glee.
"It doesn't really do anything," he says, as the rainbow starts to fade
into the air. "The first time I did it, it kind of...exploded. My room
got really, uh, colorful."
Ray hadn't gone so far as to assume he did this all by hand, no. He clears his throat but doesn't glance around meaningfully like he really, really wants to do.
"It's still a cool trick. You wanna show me more of that, you know where to find me, right?"

As if the splinters of his room aren't testament to the fact that it's all still there.

Magic! He's still not over it.

"There was a lot from my world that I was learning, but I don't have my wand any more."
As he learned back then - as he learned again, with Grindelwald - he needs that point of focus to keep his magic targeted..

He isn't even really sure why he came back here without it.

Rune gives Ray a final nuzzle and then practically floats from his shoulder to Credence's.

Date: 2019-01-28 12:28 pm (UTC)Credence nods, although the cultural reference is lost on him and he simply assumes that 'big bird' is a similar nickname to 'tigers'.
"Yes. I'll meet you in the dining room."
