“I have a dilemma.” It was said casually, comically so, for how distressed he actually felt. Sitting at the small kitchen table, Leighton looked up from his book to glance at Hippolyta as she entered the room. It was something about magic, one of the few books he had on it. He’d been pouring over it all morning, trying to get a grasp on it. It was hard to understand something you didn’t have the chance to put into practice in any way, and again, it wasn’t like he knew that many witches. Hippolyta had connections though, but he didn’t really know if it was appropriate to use them. “That includes a woman and not a crossword puzzle, so you don’t have to pretend to be interested.” @hippolytamigonitis
