    Hi everyone. You can get some MAGIC MIND by clicking here: magicmind.com/anyaustin and using my promo code ANYAUSTIN20. I enjoy this little green drink. I generally enjoy little green drinks honestly. And little drinks in general. I used to drink 3-4 of those Dollar Tree Energy Shots a day, which is definitely bad for me. Magic Mind is an improvement.
    Anyway have a great day.

    Imagine running a taxi service and the guy doing the job survey marks you down as a con artist instead because he doesn't understand that he has to actually sit in your cab for you to take him somewhere.
    Boss: "Why does the jobs report list us as some kind of con!?"
    Driver: "Shit, I didn't know what was going on. The guy walked around in circles, gave me $300, and left."

    Important to mention, is that if you do manage to catch Calixto during operating hours, he charges a couple gold pieces for a tour of his museum; one that offers a couple unique items such as Ysgramor's soup spoon and the dancers flute. Bad hours and bad returns aside, I would argue that his museum is still more of a hobbyist endeavour, but being that he does still charge a flat rate for a service renders him employed.

      @@HappyBeezerStudios Tl;dr: I don't need to fortify my Magicka or health
      I use enchanted gear for fortify Magicka and fortify Magicka Regen and as a mage I just don't get hit, destruction's impact perk stun locks enemies if you're careful and then there's also followers and conjuration to draw aggro away from yourself. If I do get hit I probably won't get one shot so I just pop a close wounds spell really quick before switching back to destruction. With the enchanted gear I have, almost every enemy will stay staggered long enough with fire bolt that I Regen more Magicka than I used so I can spam it until I get low then carefully stun lock them until they die. Fire bolt shoots pretty fast so anything besides other mages are not an issue since you can backup while firing. Some animals like bears are tricky because they're fast and have very short stagger times but you can still shoot fire bolt fast enough to stun lock them. Mages are tricky because wards and/or shock spells so stealth is handy, especially with the illusion perk that makes spells silent, I'll often kill enemies with fire bolt before I'm fully detected. The less enemies the easier it is but the more enemies there are the farther back I'll pull to focus more on summoning and staying out of aggro

Also, there should be a writer and a hireable follower in the inn and a nanny with a child outside of Aretino residence (which has another child inside). Lastly, if you move forward a bit with the Blood on the Ice questline, you can pay Calixto for a tour of the House of curiosities, which should mean he is employed.
