After the handshake and Nancy continuing her own introduction, all Nathan felt compelled to do was smile and nod at what she said, though his enthusiasm was much more toned down than hers. He didn't have anything other to say to Nancy or ask seeing as his question was answered, and was glad that the druids motioned for them to come towards them so that the Sacramentum could be performed. It meant that the conversation could be cut short, in a way, and he was fine with that.

Having placed his hand on the pedestal after his soon to be bond partner, he watched curiously as the druids did their chants and dripped water on the duo's hands. It must have been the seal he was waiting for... Though he couldn't properly describe the feelings that came with it. If he had to describe it, it was like the feeling of a warm embrace vibrating on the back of his hand, and he was glad that it didn't last long. Nancy was the first to move her hand away after the chanting, while Nathan slowly moved his own hand off as he stared at it. The seal had faded to a brown coloration, and he took note of how the color would turn red on Nancy when she practiced her magic. Maybe that red color would only appear when using magic or abilities? It was a question he was sure he'd find the answer to once he had time.

But it wasn't just about him anymore, and he looked up at Nancy as she said it was best to get to their rooms, to which he nodded once more. Not wanting to waste time, he hastily went off to grab his luggage, getting to the volunteers slightly faster than his partner. This was it, the start of a new, exciting school year with someone he barely knew. But on the bright side, at least he knew OF them, and all things considered, Nancy could be worse... Far worse... Which was all the more reason to be glad that he felt she wasn't.
