[Kadoc, in turn, isn't aware Ritsuka isn't looking at him, because he's also not looking at her. This sure is turning out to be a productive mushroom hunt, for all the focusing on harvesting those that he's doing because it's something else to focus on. At least to focus his eyes on. His attention is still entirely on her; in fact, he has to stop when he accidentally tosses a poisonous mushroom into the wrong basket, letting out a breath of relief that he caught it and then sitting down to go through that basket more carefully and make sure that's the only time he made that mistake.]
A homunculus wouldn't be beyond her capabilities. She'd have an advantage over modern-day mages, even if her time was centuries after the Age of Gods. She still comes from a time when Mystery was abundant in the world.
