[The weakness of Rowan's magic is one he actually admitted to when Noel first saw him casting those wards. He needs to move freely. With his mouth filled even his less preferred types of magic are off limits, and he's sluggishly effected enough to lose track of his arms as well, but only after forging close enough that he can almost- almost- press his forehead to Noel's leg, can almost touch him.

But he doesn't make a sound in response, but on purpose, too ashamed by his current situation.]
