"Oh, goodness... that's perfect." He can appreciate her choices of fuel, recognizing them for the same properties for which she chose them. While she sets up the fire, he pulls out kettle and canteens, preparing to run a quick purifying spell on the water even before he heats it for tea. "Well, from here, I'd intended to first go straight home. But now that I've been there and know my way back, there are two methods to reach it. There's always the PINpoints- little electronic devices that allow teleportation between coordinates. I didn't bring it with me, on this journey. It seemed too much like... cheating, if that makes any sense? But travel using them, first you're simply one place, then you're somewhere else. It's a bit disorienting. Not everyone can do magic, though. They're very useful." He's comfortable using his now, but it took a while to get used to.
"To get from here to home, the way sorcerers usually travel, is more like what you're probably used to. It's closer to opening a gate... except that you pull the gate around you, like a cloak... mm. It's a very small fold in space, designed to quickly self-correct. I'm not sure how to describe what it looks like... a brief rippling opening from one place into another." She'll get to see that, when he does go. "I can get anywhere I've been, so long as I've marked it well enough in my mind. I'd thought... perhaps I could come for you at the house you took me to?" He's certainly memorized the place well enough to return to it.
