My dear, there are always offers to me. It's more that I've grown a bit tired of the flights of momentary fancy. Though I don't begrudge you them of course. It's a reasonable thing to want. I'm just... Well, when you get to be my age it gets tired.
( she laughs slightly at that. even though she's in no way bored by the offers she can understand why he is: he's seen more, known more and done so much more as well. no wonder he would be )
Not just a hook-up for you then. Is there something you've wanted to do and never gotten around to yet? Sexually only. For now.
( honestly, she might have come here to complain and drink away her terrible night but she'd much rather talk about him and try and do something to help him. a good friend deserved that happiness )
I don't know that there's anything I haven't tried. But you see, immortals aren't very prone to dating outside of their own circles, and since I'm the leading Warlock in the area, it's a lot harder to find partners.
[It didn't help that the leader of the local Vampire family of any reputation and power was an ex-girlfriend of his. It didn't help at all.]
Oh come now, we're talking about me. That's just rude of me. Here, let me top up your wine, give you some more of those yummy potatoes, and we can keep talking about this speck of a man who tried to hold your lovely gaze.
Maybe that's your problem, you don't know what us mere mortals might surprise you with. For just a fling, anyway.
( since with immortals anything else was bound to be messy in a very unfun way.
though she does pull a slight face when he redirects the conversation back to her, holding out her glass for the refill )
He is not at all worth talking about. The good hope I had for him got ruined by how utterly boring and... awful he was. Sex wouldn't have been worth it and I don't do regrets.
( her eyes widen slightly before she smiles not having expected him to agree )
Okay, but this isn't a pity fuck.
( as if he'd do that. she knows magnus and how he feels about his friends too much for her to seriously think that it's out of pity. she might have asked but it's no different to anything else casual.
and she definitely has a more vested interest in her potatoes now )

[It's a fair clarification and he grins at the comment.]
Oh I understand my dear. It's been a while for me.
no subject
( considering how much longer his life is than hers is )
Maybe I'll help you with your problem. And if that guy doesn't come back I'll find someone who will.

Come now, I enjoy mortals. You're all... you burn bright. You make new things, you are a wonder.
Still, we could do better for you. You deserve more.
no subject
You think too highly of me.
( really, she's got a pretty low self opinion )
I'm just looking for sex, no attachments, nothing serious. I'm okay with that.
no subject
[Still, he will help her find what she seeks.]
It's not too hard to find some of those things. And what I meant by 'deserve more' is 'you deserve mind blowing sex'
no subject
( she sighs, a little sadly )
I can't even think when my last really good orgasm was. And... I'm trying not to be needy enough to ask for a hand.
( she's thought about it before. a lot. but some friends she actually tries to not cross that boundary with. sometimes )
no subject
[He smiles. Like he would refuse a friend such a thing when he himself is single.]

You are very good and if I've never said it before then I'm a fool.
no subject
My dear, you've told me every time.
no subject
( she always appreciated hearing a similar thing, needed it at times, so she'd always say it )
I didnt actually expect you to agree.

( it's a good rule to have, it stops her friendships from getting messy )
And I didn't think I was what you would go for.

( she laughs softly, leaning her head back against the sofa )
A good orgasm. In your bed, your natural talents... I think I'd even let you top.
( the look she gives him might convey that it doesn't happen often. but she's really curious about what he's got )
no subject
[He laughs and shakes his head.]
My dear, I am not merely 'allowed' to do things that I get involved in.
no subject
Oh? What would you prefer?
no subject
Two people finding something good and temporary together.
no subject
( she didn't trust many people but she trusted him to be good with her, to her, for the evening to be enjoyable for both of them )
Though you've set yourself a high bar.
