Breathing Fire (Miro)

[Aello]

While Miro spoke to her, Aello remained silent, and while he drank, she did the same. Nor did she bother to follow his advice; to move as he readied himself, and then hurled another wave of magic in her general direction. The first was easy enough to see. A ripple beneath the earth. A slithering snake that rocked from left to right as it came for her, and then paused just beneath. Before trying to rise. Swiftly, she side-stepped as the earth split, leading to a spew of what felt like a cool air coupling with water. A geyser, whose edges sprinkled her lightly, despite her having moved away from where it rested. For a few ticks, the earth spat at her, before everything receded, seemingly sinking back into the earth. She smiled weakly as her first task was completed- dodging the first magical entity Miro had conjured. The next few however, proved to be a little more difficult, for a rain cloud seemed to four over her head. Buffeting her with water before she bothered to push up against the ground with her feet, forcing her body back as she pushed out her chest, and leaned back. Throwing her hands into the ground before pushing up against them as the ends of her long mane brushed the moistened earth. Her legs swung back, forcing her body behind, ending her flip as soon as her feet had smashed into the ground once more. Jostling her heels as she looked intently at her opponent Just then, the first current coming from the right caught up with her, splashing her with another portion of water, as she moved off to the right, dodging the other two currents. Aello shook her arms, sending several droplets flying. Splattering into the parched soil. Like a dog left out in the rain, she glowered. Her eyes two smoldering coals, throat rippling, as though she were stifling a growl. Petch him, Aello thought to herself. Condescending mage who likes to fling water around. For the second time in a manner of ticks, she shook her arms out, ridding her form of a bit more of the dead weight. A few more droplets, although it scarcely seemed like much, considering how the fluid ran off her form in rivulets. Winding down her flesh as though they were slender rivers. "Thanks for that," Aello grumbled, as she stood tall, and silent. Waiting for what would come next. Wondering what it may be. OOCI think I got that... yeah...

[Miro]

Miro could only smile at the results of his spell. It was certainly exciting enough to watch. There was no way of ever catching Aello off guard, though she was only human. Being forcibly bathed did not cause her to strike out in anger though. She still keeping a friendly attitude about her, amusing him further. Such an show of character was deserving of mercy, and Morwen could understand this. He closed his eyes, holding his palms together in front of him. A deep sleepiness began running down his body. He let out a drawn out yawn, covering his mouth with one hand. His focus was broken and his mind spun around as he attempted to force it to attention.

No, it was not time to rest yet. Miro bit his lip, sending a jolt through his body and awakening his mind. He forced his hands out, willing his djed to break from his being and form res. His entire body tensed as he fought through the sluggishness, producing a small stream of liquid res. The result of his broken will caused the spell to weaken, only producing a thin blanket that was nearly transparent. The wizard staggered forward and held his hands out to guide the res forward at Aello. When it would finally reach her it would wash over her, pulling away all of the water from her body and releasing it on the ground behind her. Finally done, his res too would fall to the ground.

With a dismissive wave Miro tread out of the clearing and into the woods nearby. One tree in specific tree stood out, seeming to inviting him in. It was large, having two roots that made a small nook he could rest in. His mind was blank, he moved only on instinct. Even his body was giving up, his vision that slowly darkened as he crawled. The boy slowly came to a stop and turned on his side. His vision went black and with it the world went silent. His body would call him to rest in deep slumber and recover, little having the ability to disturb him.

[Aello]

Aello's eyes flickered with the man's movements, her pupils two dark, smoldering coals, encased in molten mud. Water trickled down her skin as she watched his hands come forward, and then the mist materializing, inching closer until it enshrouded her behind its ethereal veil. Drying her flesh, tossing the moisture away. Aello's ears prickled as the splash came from behind her. As she listened to the water seeping into the earth. She smiled weakly, unsure of what to think- of him, of his power. Of his having wandered off before she felt their practice had so much as truly begun. Sighing as Miro disappeared behind the line of trees, the huntress went to gather her things. She sheathed the daggers with relative ease, before putting her packs, back in place, and retrieving her bow. Her fist tightened around the supple curve, as her thumb danced over, and soon, within a tick or two in fact, she felt like herself again. As her eyes glimmered, Aello stepped forward, following the trail Miro had left in his wake. Upon happening upon his slumbering form, her lips curled into an even wider smile. "Sleep well young mage," she whispered, "for tomorrow will bring madness anew," she finished, before sauntering off into the forest, to be lost in shadow. -Fin-

I think I basically got everything as appropriate. The techniques I gave you both I didn’t currently see in your character sheets, so they should be unique and useful. If you have any particular comments or requests, feel free to PM me.
