[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.]

I'm guessing that it's just what it sounds like.

[oneandmikleonly]

That could manifest in any number of ways! Like -- what, would you be treating other people like a seraph treats a human vessel? Doesn't that have the potential to be dangerous?!

[imsorey]

That's not what it is! It's just like--visiting, I think. That's the kind of feeling I get from it.

[it could be dangerous, certainly, but that's all the more reason to train and know exactly what he's dealing with.]

[sighs]

Just to practice it you're going to have to go up to someone and ask, 'hey, can I pop in your soul?'

[imsorey]

There might be someone who doesn't mind. But I understand if no one wants to. If that's the case, I'll just figure out a different way of training.

[it is, by nature, something that he needs someone else's help with in order to improve, but the look on his face says that he's already planning alternatives]

[oneandmikleonly]

[makes a face at him; almost casually]

You can use mine.

[imsorey]

[raising an eyebrow]

Are you sure it's okay?

[oneandmikleonly]

Consider it payback, or something.

[imsorey]

I don't think it works like that. But I won't say no to the help.

[oneandmikleonly]

I spend enough time in yours that it feels silly not to return the favor when I can.

[holds out a closed fist, in a familiar gesture]

[imsorey]

[fistbumps]

We'll keep it short to start anyways. I wouldn't want to overstay my welcome.
