[ She hurries through an abbreviated version of her usual routine - there's no point in makeup and all the rest of it if all she's doing is staying on the house - and pulls on something comfortable and clean, trying to pay no attention to the unease creeping up the back of her neck. He'd made this sound so easy and Ai doesn't think he'd waste their time if it was entirely pointless, but...
That unease colours her face when she makes her way to the living room, even if she's doing her best to keep the worst of it out of her expression. She eyes the mat uncertainly for just a moment then decides they might as well get this over with either way before sitting herself down on it. ]
Magic... circuits?
[ A familiar little knot of shame ties up her throat - the embarrassment of not knowing something that's clearly common sense. She tries to rearrange her expression into a smile and doesn't entirely succeed. ]
I guess I must've missed that part of the book, huh?
