Knoll was becoming known to practice magic in the area around Grado Keep. The larger things that couldn’t be done in a practice room, at least. Which is what he was doing now. Four large sigils were written out on the ground around him. Reaching his arms out and up, he started speaking. Words to a spell long forgotten.

He was about halfway through, the sigils glowing bright on the ground, when a tremor hit the area, shaking the mage and breaking his concentration. A small explosion burst from each sigil as Knoll fell over, catching his breath on the ground.

“Fantastic...” He muttered, slowly picking himself up. With a slightly irritated look around him at the cracked ground and now useless sigils, he began to clean up.

Cooking Headcanon

I can imagine Ephraim being… incredibly average at cooking. He certainly wouldn’t have the patience to be a gourmet chef, but I think he also has the common sense to like, not burn water? So he’s somewhere in the middle. In a modern AU, he’d probably either order takeout all the time or make really low effort meals, like sandwiches and spaghetti. I suppose if he really tried, he could make something good, but I don’t think he cares enough. Maybe if someone he really cared about expressed interest in him cooking something, he’d give it a shot.

Driving Headcanon

I assume this would also be for a modern AU, since we already know Ephraim is capable of horseback riding. But I think Ephraim would be a terrible person to drive with. He’d race his friends to get to places fastest and would speed up at yellow lights rather than slowing down. Surprisingly, he’s never gotten in an accident, which is incredible considering how many stop lights he’s ran and how completely he throws caution to the wind. But he’d never drive drunk, and he would never wish to actually endanger his passengers or other people on the road, even if it doesn’t seem like it.
