When: Day 197-200
Open/Closed: OTA

[ If you've never experienced that ear-splitting, spine-tingling, bone-crushing headache that comes with Qri doing...something...then you're in for a treat. It lasts for about an hour on the first day, though usually it fades after a while and things go back to normal.

This time, you aren't so lucky. As soon as the headache passes, you notice there's a certain something missing within you. You may not notice it immediately, but the next time you hear someone talk their words might be equivalent to gibberish. When you go to ask someone what's going on with your telepathy, you find that your words just circle your own brain, no one answering because the message simply can't be received.

This...may be a problem. Hopefully you know how to play charades. ]

[ she nodded, hesitantly. ] Yes. All right.

[ this is going to involve a lot of pausing and correcting herself, Ritsuka can already tell. ] I am sorry for the cat. It was helping. [ she gestured to herself, then the bench. ] Can I sit?

[witchwithoutacause]

[ Amanda's not in any rush - she'll slow down a little from fast-talking city girl, just a bit. ]

It was helping?

[toblueskies]

You did not hear? He said to move. [ as if it's perfectly normal to understand cats. ]

[witchwithoutacause]

I don't speak cat without magic.

[toblueskies]

[ blink.

blink blink. ]

The animals speak to everyone. Every time. [ don't they??? ]

[witchwithoutacause]

...you can talk to all kinds of animals? All the time?

[ Damn don't let any really curious witches near this girl. ]

[toblueskies]

Yes. [ Ritsuka sits down and stares at the ground like she's just come to some kind of horrible conclusion about herself. ] Yes, I think... so.

[witchwithoutacause]

That sounds really useful.

[ Although Amanda's wondering how this is a revelation for her. ]

[toblueskies]

Is it not okay. [ no wait, that's the wrong phrasing. ] Is it not ... Can you talk to them?

[witchwithoutacause]

Not here. I would need magic that I can't use here.

[ That should be intelligible yeah. ]

[toblueskies]

[ did she hear that right?

surprised, Ritsuka pointed at Amanda, and reverted back to Japanse, using the term for various kinds of magic users; sorcerers, magi, or witches. ]

[witchwithoutacause]

[ The one for 'witch' sounds closest to what she's heard once or twice. Akko's English was really good though...

Amanda repeats that familiar one, nodding. ]
