Aaron appeared to be the only one who took Maddie bait. The sudden change of conversation in the room to pull away from what had just transpired. Salem thought on the rumor, how there were supposedly a group of mages pulling pranks on abusive vampires. He had to wonder if they based their pranks on evidence or rumors as well? Would they target Victors and his dorm just because he's an Astorio? Hopefully that was unlikely, what's more he hoped that Victor took it in stride if they did.  Last thing they needed was another mage being chucked across campus to set an example of true strength or something to that nature. There was an itch to sigh, his hand twitching in response as it threatened to pinch the bridge of his nose in annoyance. Luckily Maddie pulled him away from it as she directed the new form of conversation to him.

His cheeks began to grow hot as blood rushed beneath them, his tan skin being a saviour in hiding the blush. Lilie spoke of him? And in good light? Salem was typically more on guard about others talking about him behind his back. If anything it was to spread baseless rumors, or simply speak ill of him without his knowing. After all that was what many did at such parties, swap stories and information as if fact and use the new found information against others in the long run. He gave Maddie a polite smile before answering. [Color=82ca9d]"It certainly is nice to meet you in person for once and have a conversation. Though I wasn't aware that Lilie spoke of me,and so highly at that. I can only hope to live up to the image she's painted of me."[/color] His posture changed as he sat in the chair. Somewhere between relaxed and yearnfull for the life he could've had before all this happened. 

[Color=82ca9d]"Before I was awoken I had begun my studies in the medical field. I ran a clinic to help those who couldn't afford it, dealing with a wide range of injuries and illnesses. Had I not awoken to my magic I would've just continued my work, helping others and doing what I could for those in need. I still wish to help with what I can however. I plan on using my knowledge of horticulture combined with my magic and transmutation magic to create stronger herbal medicine so that more treatments can be produced and distributed to the clinic at a faster rate. What about you? What was your plans before you awoke?"[/color]
