[What's to be embarrassed about? Sagi isn't sure - it's hardly "WickedGawd" levels of cheesy pseudonym - but he catches just enough of Kadoc's reaction to leave it at that. Still, there's definitely a muffled note of recognition in his voice. And yeah, despite him knowing that they have a job to do, every momentary distraction from the smell helps.
Anyway, the username... turns out to be none of his phone's suggestions, thanks a lot. Undeterred, he just types it in.] OK, done. If it says it's from Sagi, that's me.
[A text will pop up in short order, not from "Sagi" but the almost equally imaginative handle "0123": one picture of what the finished magic circle is supposed to look like, the spell they're supposed to chant at it, and below those a numbered list of instructions.
1) Draw circle with chalk 2) Place candles 3) Light candles 4) Recite prayer together 5) Link magic together 6) Blow powder into middle of circle
Maybe kind of lacking in fine detail, but it seemed good enough to Sagi at the time. Once the message goes through, he proceeds straight to rifling through his waist satchel.]
So, I have the chalk here... [Ta-dah. Along with a handful of chalk dust, and a little extra smudge of it on his scarf when he moves to tug it back up over his nose.] Are you any good at drawing?
