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.

[Why is this so complicated gosh.]

Yeah, it's for fighting. I mean, I'm not going to be a professional candle-lighter or something. [Though showing off by lighting a candle across the room is on the top of her list.] So I get it from practicing a lot right?

[Because magic!! No easy hadoukens for you, Kido!]

Training, and a lot of it, especially for you. You were given magic by magical people ruling a magical society. Even if everyone here doesn't or can't use it, this place has it everywhere. They were born with and grew up with it. Be aware of that, but don't rush ahead because of it. That's asking for trouble. But, please, find someone to supervise you, especially at the beginning. "Fire magic" isn't actually very telling on its own, and that adds another layer of danger. Self-discovery is very important to magic, at least where I'm from, but you're starting from the ground up. You might have the best of intentions or will do your best to be safe and careful, but you don't know all the ways you need to be because you this is new to you.

[concealingeyes]

Eh really? What sort of types of fire magic are there? Is it that difficult?

[showmeyourwreath]

Well, it depends on what kind of fire, first of all. It can just be more or less the usual, fire started with light magic, or fire started with dark magic. They may all behave as fire, but they'll exhibit different properties and have different feels to them. But there's also what you can do with it.

[concealingeyes]

[That first bit isn't comforting. Does that mean her fire magic might be 'dark'? It seems like enough trouble to be vague on what side she's on but it'd be worse if her magic just gave her away.]

Hey, do you think the magic the two castles give out is different then? This whole thing is light versus dark right? But aren't they all the same... species sort of?

[Fairies are confusing.]

[showmeyourwreath]

It's possible, perhaps even likely, but hard to say without a doubt without having a basis for comparison.

[Oh, you sweet sweet summer child.]

Yes, but think of it like...flowers--mundane flowers to make it easier. What ties them all together is that they have chlorophyll, but daffodils aren't nightshades aren't roses. Just because they may both be fairies doesn't mean they're going to have the same powers or be the same way.
