I do not know magic! Magic is AMAZING from what I have seen.

[Granted, that's not actually all that much.]

It is interesting to think about what is incommon with us, as well as how we are different.

[scholiast]

It's pretty good. (It's common where she's from, so it's very normal for her.) What kind of magic have you seen?

I know what you mean. I've never seen so many different people all in one place before. It's exciting.

[feelybug]

I have only seen the magic of people here, since I have arrived. Magic that changes things, and magic which can make one thing look like another thing.

It seems to be very versatile and useful as well.

[scholiast]

Oh, so transmutation and illusion work? Interesting. The school of magic that I know is called abjuration.

I'd be happy to show you that too, if you were ever interested.

[feelybug]

I did not know there are schools that teach magic. I have never been to a school.

I am very interested in learning new things! I am learning there is so much I do not know.

[scholiast]

Oh, sorry. When I say 'school', I just mean the type of magic. Though I suppose literal schools also, um, exist.

Same here, actually. I'm enjoying the experience more than I thought I would.

[feelybug]

OOOH. I am sorry for the misunderstanding.

I am also very happy to be meeting new friends. I hope that you can show me abjuration. I want to learn more about MAGIC.

[scholiast]

That's okay! I can see how it would be confusing.

I'd love to show you some abjuration magic. I might even be able to teach you a little bit.

[feelybug]

I would like that very much!

Does it require equipment?

[Mantis, after looking up pictures for magic, discovered a lot of seems to involve pointed sticks.]

[scholiast]

You do need a sort of arcane focus, yes. A wand is what a lot of people think of first, but it could be a crystal or a glass orb or a staff... something along those lines.

(But yeah a pointed stick would do just fine!)

[feelybug]

Should I attempt to acquire one? Or do you have some for demonstration?

[scholiast]

I have a spare. It's more of a mental connection than actually having 'proper equipment' though, so if you have anything of significance with you it would probably work just fine as a conduit.

[feelybug]

I have a cactus, and a lamp with colors, and a pink stick with a star and ribbons.

They are the first items I have ever owned, but I do not know if they are significant.

[scholiast]

(s-she's so honest.)

If you have to question it, they probably aren't significant.

But that's okay, we can stick to using my spare.
