[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.]

If it's a 'power' I'm suppose to use then it stands to reason it's different...probably? It's the 'probably' that gets me.

[he shakes his head a little and folds his arms, mouth crooking wryly]

Sorry, you probably didn't come here to see someone bellyache about being able to do something new.

[burnblonde]

Hey. If we're all supposed to work together then it's important we understand each other, right? I don't think it's bellyaching.

[She considers what to say next.]

But...you're never going to know for sure if you don't try now. Might as well do it now while we're all practicing than find out by accident some other time when it might cause even more trouble. Better to face your fear I say.

[he half-smiles, just for a moment]

Hey, thanks. I know that's what I should do too, just --

It does mean something to have someone else say it, as well.

[burnblonde]

It's usually easier to tell yourself something, but actually accepting it can be hard. What I mean is...listening to your head can be a lot easier than accepting it with your heart.

[Logic wasn't always easy to accept. Just because you 'knew' something didn't mean it was easy to go through with.]

Hmm...sorry I guess even that was a little cliche. Still, I hope it helps.
