"Magic will be much faster to make" Samir thought out loud, grinning like an idiot. All it took was the mention of a plan and he was acting like a kid.

"Working is all I got" he shrugged. "Hell, it'll sure be worth it anyway. I can see it now, darlin'. Fat moms running after their kids, cryin' and wobblin' everywhere" he joked.

"Mmm," she sighed contentedly, just thinking of the flames.

She getting a little giddy thinking about all the chaos. It made her swell with excitement. Up on her tip toes she gave him a peck on the cheek. "It'll be splendid really. I can't wait to see what you have in store."

Samir rested his cheek on the top of her head briefly after her affection. It was an odd relatonship to have, a boss and a friend all in one. It was not often they got to be so affectionate. At least not surrounded by her other followers.

"I could charm the flames to be the school colours" he teased her.

It was nice to finally have a moment without the others. It wasn't exactly the most conventional use of "free time" as it were but still she found herself enjoying his company, considering him more than an ally, a friend.

She snorted at his comment. "Now that would be spectacular. A little school spirit to top it off. A very fitting return to Blue Ridge, don't you think?" she smirked.

"Only the best for these precious kids" Samir said sweetly, although his eye twitched involuntarily. The first few weeks back were always the hardest with the students. Especially the homesick ones.

"D'ya ever wish you were a kid again?" he asked Gemma curiously.

She smiled warmly and let out a low laugh. "Of course," she said sweetly. "Our darling future protege only deserve the best."

She thought on it for a moment, quirking her head to the side. "It certainly was easier back then but I was... weak and foolish, I let a silly thing like love get in the way," she said lowly. She had never gone into detail about her past with anyone, she figured it was pointless to rehash things she couldn't change. With Samir though, she knew she could trust him with the vague truths. "I learned my lessons though. Idealists, revolutionaries, radicals... they get nowhere if they refuse to shed blood."

He smiled kindly and stroked her cheek with real affection. "That's what I like about you. You aint afraid to do what needs to be done. Besides, it's awful pretty that blood gets spilt" he murmured.

Gemma smiled warmly as his touch and even leaned into his hand a little. She felt like there was a sort of fortitude there, like what they were doing was right and okay because they had each other and a few others who believed, really believed in what they were doing. "And that's why I like you," she said.

Her eyes flashed when he mentioned blood. "You're quite right about that. Never seen a prettier sight than fresh red."

Just the thought was getting him all riled up. Outwardly still cool and collected, inside his stomach squirmed nicely. Samir's eyes drifted from Gemma's to the student's around them. It would be so easy to take one. A little one, and have some fun. He gave himself a mental slap and sighed. Even now he wasn't sure if he was capable of killing an innocent.

"We could drive into town" Samir suggested, getting entirely distracted from the recon mission. "I've only had two beers. We could go to a bar and find some nice asshole muggle.."

"Shhh," she hushed him gently. "You're already getting distracted darlin'," she reminded him. "Why don't we made a few more laps around and then we can head into town to... celebrate," she smiled.
