Woah, woah, calm down. I am not trying to attack you here. I was just curious, that's all.

[Kell takes a step back and lifts his hand even before he has a moment to think. True, he should have remembered. That's not the first time he hears it. But, and that's an important but for him, it's also unfair from Mat's side to go full on explosion on him for one, well-meaning question. They come from such vastly differing backgrounds that sometimes Kell wonders how are they even able to communicate at all. It's honestly a small miracle such incidents like this one do not happen more often.]

I've never called you an idiot, Mat. But alright, no love for magic, I get it. End of story, won't pester you about it ever again.

[That leaves them kind of short of topics, given how much of what Kell does revolves on magic.]
