[some doodles of clouds across the upper bit of this page]

How many of the people here know of, or are able to use magic?


{added later}

It would be appreciated if you could elaborate a little with regard to the magic of your world, though that is optional.

Magic does take different forms. In my world, that'd be a lot like magic.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Well yeah, then. I can use magic. So can this kid I know called Lucas, so you can note him down as well.

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

Will do. Thanks.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

No problem. Whatcha listin' them for, anyway?

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

Curiosity, mostly.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Huh, alright. [Brief pause while we leaf through the earlier conversations!] Looks like you got a lot more people that have the talent in here than we had back home.

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Yeah? How many'd you have?

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

Magic's...uncommon, at least. Usually, only women can use it.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Wonder why that is. We had two guys and me who could use PSI back home, plus the Magypsies.

[But you don't wanna know about the Magypsies.]

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

[which is of course why that gets her attention]

Magypsies?

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Yeah. [She taps her pen against the page for a bit, one-two-three, before scribbling down a quick picture of one of these fine people (http://files.fobby.net/0000/3324/Magypsies.jpg). You can't see it, but she's smiling.] They taught me how to harness my PSI.

[sweatdrops]

Oh.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

[Nowhere Island is a beautiful place.]

Although now I think of it, Claus and Lucas had their powers awakened by them, too...that must be the trigger in my world. Have you got one?

[Yes, she sees nothing wrong with the picture she just drew. They're the people that brought her up!]

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure what you meant by a "trigger".

[doesn't know what to say about the Magypsies, and so says nothing]

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

[Aw, you know you wanna. Have we mentioned that they giggle and twitter and do your makeup?]

Well, it's hard to explain. They kinda take away the barriers in your mind that were stopping you from using the powers. Like unlocking a door.

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

[they wouldn't happen to work in a nice-looking bar and call the boss Mama?]

Can't say I knew of something like that back home.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

[Nope. They just live in huge conch shells and molest old men. This is a PG game, what]

So how do people come by their powers in your world?

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

[molesting old men...in a PG game...yeah.]

They're usually born with the talent, and get better with training.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

[They only flirt onscreen, but we all know what really happens.]

And you chant spells and stuff?

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

[oh, dear buddha]

No chanting, 'm afraid.

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Interesting.

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

It is?

[pkuppercut.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I only ever knew two other people that could use PSI back home, but in this new place... [glancing over the other entries again, so the words pause] Seems like it's not so strange.

[lilblackdevil.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I can understand.
