[OPENING] magical training log

[spellslash]

Who: Brie, whichever newbies want to show up.
Where: The beach.
When: Day 4
Open/Closed: OTA

[It's about noon on the island, based on the position of the sun. The newbies have had a few days to settle in, but that doesn't mean they've fully mastered their newfound abilities.

As much stock as Genette puts into telepathy, Brie is more concerned about their other newfound gifts. She's aggressively tried to wrangle as many newbies as possible onto the sandy shores of the beachfront area for some magic practice.

She's got a list of everyone's magic -- only a few vague notes, limitations are for you to discover -- and she's handing out missions for magic training. If you want to participate? Feel free. If you don't? Suit yourself.

But understanding your magic isn't just an activity that benefits the group. Learning your magic's abilities may be what stands between you and survival, which is something she makes perfectly clear.]

Huh.

[He has to stop and think. Really stop and think. Waver had rarely paid attention to flowers and plants over the years. Magecraft had consumed his life in that particular way, and it was a strange thing to finally realize.

At least the second question he can answer a bit easier.]

Blackberries. They're hard to get in the city, but good when there's one of those little pop up markets that bring them in from the countryside.

Blackberries...

[She runs her finger down the small list, not seeing that fruit there. But it will be when she gets back to her beach house.]

Blackberries have lots of lore attached to them. As well as magical properties. You can do all sorts of things with their vines and leaves. And~ they make an excellent wine. If I can find the seeds here I will grow them. Everyone should have something that they like in this strange new place. Something that reminds them of home, don't you think~?

[teratias]

I didn't know about the lore, actually. [Waver's thought is a bit more simple than that.]

I mostly just remember blackberries and cream being one of the better snacks I can make for myself. [Living in dorms is hard, after all.]

I'll keep an eye out for seeds though. Promise. [More importantly:] Thank you.

[witchofwishes]

I look forward to your possible findings and I hope I can grow something to reward you for your efforts and more importantly give you something to remind you of home.

[They may be here for a while. A long while. It'll be vital to remember where you came from and what home was like. It can be easier than you think to let such seemingly trivial things slip through your fingers.]

And of course~ You're most welcome.

[teratias]

It'd be nice to have food that's probably not going to cause violent stomach reactions.

[Somehow, that isn't a joke.]

I should probably try and get back to work.
