Ah, she would never get tired of atypical reactions to her appearance magic. Except that she really already was, had been three minutes into Keeliai. It made people unpredictable, and China much preferred it when she had some idea what to expect, rather than improvising the entire way.

This one flinched. Looked, perhaps, like he'd seen a ghost. China would have loved to know what her magic did to him, especially as it seemed to make him think leaving was the better option.

She headed after him with somewhat hurried grace, heels clicking. "Certainly not with that attitude," she said after him, keeping her voice amused. Perhaps he'd catch it, perhaps he wouldn't; slightly more pertinent right now was keeping track of him. She didn't want someone unbalanced loose in Keeliai without some supervision.
