Well.

It's been rather interesting so far, hasn't it. I think I'll consider it a success. [And he was truly amused, relaxing contentedly.] Very nicely done.

You wish to know of her, or her training? I shall warn you, I am beholden to her mentor to help her survive. [read: no poaching golbin king - only Lea gets to toy with this one.]

Her training, my lady. [Jareth chuckled, an exaggerated innocence about him.] I'm quite content to listen, I assure you.

[Oh isn't that nice, so many people have forgotten important things like politeness have a smile]

Lovely. With her mentor gone she is left to fight some minor powers so sometimes I direct a little action her way and we work on veils and defense. She really is quite magnificent at illusion and hiding. Given enough time she could become a top talent. So useful. [Lea might be a little wistful that she can't just trick the pretty thing into the Nevernever]

Ah, quite the rarity, finding strong talents anymore. More often, it seems science has taken human attention. So unfortunate. [But then, that did make them all the easier to trick. Usually.]

The wonderful thing about those best with magic in the human realm, they tend to destroy anything too complicated by proximity alone. In my world they call us still. And I am always eager to lend a helping hand in exchange for a favor owed.

Ahh, fair exchange - always encouraged, of course. And to keep them beholden. Wise of you. Without some sort of guarantee, they never keep their word.

It is the manner of things. Three favors and they are ours. My hounds have never looked finer. It is never wise to skip out on the sídhe.

Have you had difficulties cashing in on bargains, your highness?

Long ago, yes - but I learn very quickly. And isn't experience always the best teacher?

Oh yes. I find experience and impending death are the best motivators one can come by.

Mm, impending death... That would require the ability to die.

[Of course, he could be killed - but he preferred if people think it impossible.]

Humans die every day, sire. Death is their motivation.

[because of course she considers him to be his world's version of the Erlking and like the sidhe he cannot die]
