[Action - School]

[Marisa is sitting on top of the table in the cafeteria, legs crossed, as she's finishing up telling a tale to the other students sitting around her at lunch.]

...and that's why you need to be careful when you see lots of flowers just suddenly appearing all over the place, like they did here, ze. They could be a bunch of dead people just waiting for a lazy shinigami to take them across the Sanzu to Higan.



[Action - Makeout Point - Evening]

[Anyone attuned to the flow of magic with the capacity to sense it feel a surge coming from Makeout Point. In fact, this sudden concentration feels VERY much like Shana's Guren no Souyoku Unrestricted Method that grants her wings of flame.

Only it doesn't feel quite right. It doesn't feel like fire, but... starlight? A shimmering yellowish glow can be seen from the Point.]


[Phone]

So who wants to go to the Drive In? It's almost dark and I feel like seeing a movie on that really big screen with popcorn and some friends and b--

[She cuts herself off. No, no drinking tonight because... The phone is partially muffled as Marisa yells something back into her own house.]

Oi! Ciel! I'm taking the car tonight. No, I'm not going to drink. Yes, I know how to drive. And no, you're not stopping me. I already got the keys, ze.

[And back to talking on the phone.] So who wants to come with me? No boring people allowed.

And you can fly with your wings. What would you do if your wings were cut off? Would you be earthbound or find another way to fly?

[badladyscramble]

What, did someone take your broom?

And besides, my wings would grow back.

[adropofjupiter]

Are you sure about that? They could be cut off by silver.

And you didn't answer my question.

[badladyscramble]

It would be a pain, but I could fix them provided I'm not dead.

In any case, if they were sealed in some way or another, I'd find a way around it.

Now answer my question. Have you somehow lost your usual method of flying? Considering how you've been invading our houses, I know you had it before.

[adropofjupiter]

My broom's perfectly fine. It's over there. [And she points to a nearby tree where her broom is indeed resting against it.]

[badladyscramble]

Then I don't get what all this sparkly fuss is about. You look silly.

[adropofjupiter]

You're not a magician; you wouldn't understand. Ask Patchy about this sometime. She's probably the only one that would be able to explain the reasons behind this in a way you could understand.

[badladyscramble]

Don't act like I can't understand magic. Or are you just that poor at explaining things?

[adropofjupiter]

It's less that I can explain things and more this is really only something another magician will really understand.

It's for progression, growth and understanding how to open up a new metaphysical corridor. And exercise in deconstruction and reformulation. And it's cool as all hell.

[badladyscramble]

[A frown. She didn't exactly understand all of that, but she catches some of the concepts - she's a minor practitioner herself, after all.]

You could have just said that to begin with then.

I still think it looks silly.

[adropofjupiter]

Your sense of aesthetics suck with the dark gloomy colors. Magic should be flashy and these are indeed flashy~

[badladyscramble]

It's not the colors, it's a the whole winged-witch thing. You're not an angel or a devil. It clashes with such a wide-brimmed hat. Your usual magic orbs are much better.

[Marisa should regain her laser skittles some time...]

[adropofjupiter]

You'll either get over it or deal, ze. It's not like I'd use this much anyways.

[badladyscramble]

Hmph. Well, it's not as if I care. You're the one looking silly.
