"Him?" Peter bursts out laughing. "Oh no, it wasn't him that gave me these at all. I think he's still too intimidated by my skill to even think of something like that!"

Once the laughter fades to chuckles he continues. "I won't deny I've been teasing him a bit. A skilled teacher should never be so easily intimidated and jealous of another's skills. He wouldn't have been hired if he wasn't good."

He slows and comes to an eventual stop, knowing they'll be nearing one of the unicorn's groves soon, and pondering the issue of Murdoc. The unicorns know him well enough by now not to care that he's a man but they usually don't take well to men. There's either leaving Murdoc to his own devices or a fun charm he knows. Decisions, decisions.
