[@YamiCuoreLaroux] Atticus took a breath of relief, placing his palm on his right pectoral. [color=00aeef][b]"Ah, thanks...I was worried that it'd be following me around for a week. Last thing I wanted was to be called Bird-Poo Haywood."[/b][/color] he says, gingerly folding his uniform to where the bird-splat was on the top and set it before the desk, stepping past it. Curious about the orb, Atticus put his hands on the desk and looked at the sphere from every angle. Yup. It was round. Content with it being completely round and not a trick of the eye, he listened to the Banana-robed mage. Assuming that since the mage was gesturing to the orb, Atticus nodded and moved closer, placing his hands to the side-arcs of the sphere. [color=00aeef][b]"So uh...l-like this, right? Am I looking for anything in particular?"[/b][/color] he asked, leaning close and peering with one eye, like he was trying to look through a telescope, hunched over quite a bit to look into the ball.
