[He comes out of the room to meet her after she knocks! She can get a glimpse of his room for a moment behind him: it looks absolutely like a teenage boy's room. It's not messy, but it's masculine. There's the glint of something hanging on the wall before the door shuts, like a hilt, blue and white.]
That's already been happening. Sure, I worry about it. But earning it is what I believe in. If it's important to you, you'll work to buy it, even if it's at a slightly higher price.
Well... some of you would. The others are greedy enough to run to whoever is cheapest so they can get it as soon as possible, even if it skews the Dorm Wars.
I can't tell you what to do with your vouchers in the end. You still have a choice.
It just depends on if you care about the reward from winning Dorm Wars or not. And I don't think a lot of people care because of what's happening. Not that winning is more important... but actions have consequences.
Not many people are thinking about the Dorm Wars rankings when they're trying to get something to help them.

Meet me upstairs outside my room.

Hey. Still want your glow, huh?
no subject
I do. I had considered asking around to try and haggle the price down, after hearing some very unfair price comparisons from my peers.
But in the end I am too impatient. I want what's mine.
no subject
It depends on what you're buying, and who you're buying it from. I guess it also depends on if they're desperate because of dorm rankings.
[He holds out a hand, palm up.]
Willing to earn what's yours?
no subject
... You won't tell anyone?
no subject
What reason would I have? I won't tell anyone.
no subject
no subject
[He looks--not concerned exactly, but... sad? at the desperate-sounding question.]
It's yours.
no subject
... I know that this is a silly thing to ask for. Compared to other spells that would serve others better. I intend to work towards those, as well.
no subject

...A donation to what you're working toward.
no subject
And here I was thinking that you must be the stingiest dorm head!
no subject
If it's worth something to you, you have to earn it. Having enough vouchers means you've put in the work to get what's important to you.
I don't charge the highest price, but I'm not going to charge the cheapest either if I can help it.

no subject
But I would rather keep my purchases between myself and you, rather than speaking of them with others just for a better price.
no subject
[hm,]
When you get your glow, you'll have to show me. I've never seen a lot of magic before. Uh. If you want, I mean.
[Now you know why this has been so fucking funny to me.]
no subject
... Maybe. It's always been a dangerous thing to show anyone.
When will it return?
no subject
As long as we made the exchange, you should have it.
no subject
anyway lux... looks down at her palm for a second, then shakes her head. ]
Perhaps another time? I apologize.
no subject
That's okay. Some other time.
no subject
... Ah. I should discuss my next purchase, so that I know what to expect. There are a couple different spells I would like to ask you for a price on.
no subject
Okay. Go ahead.
