Voice ✦Unseelie & Seelie

[concealingeyes]

Yo.

[It still feels weird to talk at a locket but oh well. She tries to sound as casual as possible.

Like usual, she also doesn't plan to reveal what side she's on in any way either. But asking for advice from both sides seems like it'll get her the best variety of responses.]

I guess a lot of us asked for magic, huh? It seems practical enough in a world like this. Well, anyway, I'm looking for advice from all you magic-users. Since I'm learning now, just tell me what works for you. Tips or something like that. I don't care if you think maybe it won't work for this world's magic. It's worth a shot, right? Aah but I don't need a teacher. I'll learn it myself from these books.

Even if you don't use magic, if you knew people who do, I'll hear about it. [A beat. Oh right.] It's fire magic if that matters. [She laughs softly.] Well... I guess that's fitting for me.

Mm... That's about it.

[paraleyes]

I-I didn't trip this time...! And -- I'll remember... next time.

[But study setup all done, she comes and plops down next to Kido with her own books.]

I'll make sure I ask next time...

[concealingeyes]

[She grabs a book and flips it open before realising oh right she has to like, study for real. So she opens it to the first page.]

What are you going to ask for anyway?

[paraleyes]

[Geeze, Kido, don't put her on the spot that way. She sort of blurts it out:]

I want to ask to be stronger...!

[Strong enough to pick up a sword and defend everyone. Strong enough that no one bothers them. Sakura Mary.]

[concealingeyes]

[She imagines physically stronger, too. Mary with big muscles. Mary with arms so huge she can use them to walk like some weird fluffy gorilla. Mary grunting!!! Mary the sumo wrestler??!!

Oh. Oh god.

Kido pulls her hood up and puts her head down. She's not laughing she's not laughing she's not laughing she's-]

Y-Yeah! That's... that's a good... good wish...!!

[paraleyes]

-- D-Don't... Don't laugh at me...!

[She doesn't mean to be so loud, but she's so flustered she forgets she's in a library. It's not a joke. It's serious.]

It's not funny, Kido! I... I'm going to protect you and Kano too...!

[concealingeyes]

[Kido waves her hands because soon she won't be able to breathe. She's trying so hard to hide her laughter that her eyes are red but it isn't doing any good when Mary is staring right at her like that.]

Y... Yeah! M-Mary the Muscle of the M-Mekakushi Dan...! [She's sinking down oh no help her.]

[paraleyes]

[Which, of course, means that Mary is screaming at the top of her lungs in a library while seemingly alone. As usual, she's starting to get a little upset -- her voice is wavering just slightly.]

I-It's not funny...! Don't laugh! K-Kido -- be serious about this -- !
