"Unfortunately not! Sylphs use a far more raw source of magic than the Five-Races, and have a very different way of casting it, so we just have no idea how to replicate it other than asking very nicely," She laughs.
Though she's very grateful that he doesn't laugh, she can also see the way the corners of his lips turn down, trying to fight a smile. It's fine, she knows that her race isn't exactly the most common here. She's yet to see anyone else like her at all, in fact.
She takes in his description with an easy understanding and a confident nod.
"Okay, I can make some clippers, at least, and that should take care of the shorn sides for you, and then just the curls on the top to be taken down?" She manipulates a pair of manual clippers out of Liminal matter and sets them down onto the table, trading them in for a comb, a spray bottle, and a sharp pair of scissors.
First things first, dampen and brush out the hair!
"So, Elliot. I seem to recall my party members talking about you vaguely, but I've not had the pleasure of talking to you myself. What kind of world is it that you come from?" Pinya asks conversationally.
She knows that the other two had found this man aggravating, but she also knows that she's the same.
"Party members?" Eliot asks, folding his hands genteely over his stomach. He's completely unaware Pinya knows Felih, or Q'uila, who he considers somewhat a friend.
"And that's a very vague question. I suppose I come from a mostly non-magical world as far as most humans know. Humans are by far the most prolific of the sentient races that live on Earth full time. Magic and magical beings are hidden and somewhat secret. Probably to give them more power - it's hard to manipulate the world if the world knows you're doing it. We do have technology - computers, internet, airplanes, all of that. But we haven't gotten to mundane technologies for space travel yet, or instant teleportation. Even with magic, those things are a serious pain in the ass."
