"That is a very dangerous question," Circe said with a grin, "because I can think of all manner of things that I would like to do with you. But I suppose that asking dangerous questions is your job, isn't it?" Priya's mind would make her a danger even if she were not so astonishingly gorgeous. And she was, without a doubt, astonishingly gorgeous. Together those things made her deadly. Literally as well as metaphorically. "Ah, but let me think. You are so hard to seduce, when everything you want is in your lab. I might need to steal your lab to entice you. You know, there is an alchemist's guild in Akvero? I do not care for them, because none of them are as pretty as you. But maybe you could steal their secrets, if they've any secrets worth stealing."
Circe knew not a damned thing about alchemy, except that sometimes the results were lovely and sometimes they exploded, and sometimes there were lovely explosions. Akvero's alchemists specialized in fireworks and forgeries, neither of which seemed like the sorts of things that would interest Priya. Circe simply did not know enough to say for sure.
"How could I possibly, pretty Priya, when you are so unforgettable?" Circe fluttered her eyelashes again, as if she had thought of no one else in all her years away and back and away again. This despite how easily falsifiable a claim it was, having brought home no shortage of lovers both current and former. "There are so few men here, I cannot imagine who has been trying to entertain you." Those men she brought were usually more interested in the books than the women, and that was intentional on her part. "Never say Arjun tried to kiss you in my absence," she teased, a curl to her mouth. The thought of Arjun trying to entertain anyone was amusing all on its own.
"Hmm." She watched smoke curl away from Priya's lips, and wondered how angry she would be if Circe kissed her. They were pursed so perfectly, after all. "I would ask Nadra," she said, "where to find the finest flowers. And she would tell me that her flowers were the finest, and be very angry with me for needing to ask. But, eventually, she would tell me where to find these flowers that I seek. They could grow on the very moon itself, and I would fly there for you, though it would pain me to leave you for so long."
