Even if you did mention you were going to make me a knife a long time ago, I think I was happy every time you brought me your other little projects anyway. All of them are pretty important to me. [ like how he still wears the crow scarf in winter, despite its handmade fashion, or any little runs in it from the years of use by now. ]

But this is... special. It's like an amalgamation of all your months of training. It's... honestly the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. And you made it? Look at it.

[ he turns it over in his hands, thumbing along the handle, where the deep color meets the lighter color, how it sparkles even in the low light of his living room. ]

And then there's the spells you've fused with it. They're all incredibly thoughtful.

As much as I love the idea of creating illusions or finally being able to heal myself a little... do you know what's the most important thing for me, here?

It's ... probably life changing, for someone like me.

[ he flashes her a little bit of a blank look--he knows FOR FACT that she'd given him the skill so he could recall thrown blades, but. She has no idea what his mind actually drifted towards, does she? ]

Never again will I spill a coffee or drop my keys down a drain. [ THAT'S THE BIGGEST LIFE CHANGE HERE. ] The ability to catch things mid-air? And bring them to me?

I've never needed a skill more in my life.

[ That... does make her cheeks burn a little red again. She has seen how he still uses and wears the things she's made before, even after all this time - and she's always touched every time she sees that.

And she turns even more red as he praises her work; she is very weak to praise, especially from someone she cares about, so she can't help but smile a little more as her tail wags harder against the floor. It's impossible not to feel giddy at how much he seems to like her creation, warmth filling her chest now as she resists the urge to just... hum happily. But there's a little sway to her now, clearly very pleased.

Lapis very rarely feels proud of herself and anything she does or makes, but now she lets herself bask in the feeling.

Only to then blink when he mentions about something being life changing, head tilting as she wonders what he means. Is telekinesis really that important -

Oh, that's why.

And then she ends up giggling anyway, shoulders shaking as she clears her throat and nods. Ah yes, of course, that would make a big difference for him. ]

As long as you have the dagger, you can do that! I think the weight limit is... around a person? Nothing bigger than that.

[ She holds and waves her hands apart in some... close approximation. ]

So you can catch multiple keys and coffees.

[ he's still grinning a little silly for a moment, his lips slowly curling with a look of mischief on his face. His eyes remain half-lidded with that ever-serious look on his face as he considers his shiny new dagger. Taking a moment to spin it between his hands --an action he'd not do back when his luck was as bad as it was, but with Lapis nearby it's fine.

He then clicks his teeth in a grin... ]

[ and flicks his wrist, pointing at Lapis, and causing her to suddenly rise up and float in mid-air. ]

--Hoh.

It works...!

[ Hmmm... Something is afoot. While she is still very pleased that he likes the dagger so much, she can see that mischief too.

But she notices a little too late. ]

Ah-!

[ And up she goes! She blinks owlishly for a good moment, before huffing with a pout as she floats here. ]

O-of course it does! I should've expected you would test it on me...

[ She says, not sounding upset in the slightest. ]

I could have tested it out on other things, but. I'd hate to float something that could easily get broken.

The way I see it, I'm testing it on something that's a good size... and extremely durable. Honestly, you should be complimenting me.

...

[ he's gonna readjust his grip, a little, because as he finds himself laughing, he almost drops her. Shit, fuck. ]

--Ah.

This takes a lot more concentration than I thought...

Hmm... I can compliment you when you put me down.

[ Is that a flirt or a threat? Yes.

Her expression is as calm as always, though there is a muffled 'pfft' when his concentration wavers. ]

And you better not drop me either.

[ Though then she looks a little more thoughtful, a finger tapping against her chin now. ]

It is a new skill, so it will take some time to get used to it... And I guess you can use me to help practice.
