[Raistlin's amused. He can see that the tables have been turned in his favor, and that this stranger once again let him have the control here.]
Well, I never said whether or not interesting was a good or a bad quality, Sebastian. It is, simply put, a fact. A statement. You are interesting, whether or not you enjoy being called so. [Raistlin shrugged.]
Don't expect me to magic something simply because you've inquired it of me. That would hardly be fun at all. [Raistlin chuckled.] If you'd really like to see magic, make yourself presentable to me. Perhaps one day, I might enlighten you with a bit of wizardry. [Raistlin's not going to admit that Marina has nearly stripped him of all his powers, not to a complete stranger. That would be something devastating if this man found that out. In time, perhaps. But not on the first meeting.]
As for your master, if he's anything like you, I'm quite certain he's well. For a man to be able to have some sensibility even when wounded as you are...[Raistlin studies him carefully] you remind me of someone I once knew.
