[A rare video feed from Kaneis comes on, partly because one of his roommates had to turn on the tablet. It becomes quickly apparently why- it seems his hands and locks of his hair are tangled up with strips of brightly colored leopard print duct tape. Someone attempted to do home repairs when they knew absolutely nothing about home repair. The background shows one giant hole in the wall about six inches in diameter, just to give you an idea. Allen is next to him, trying to get some of the duct tape off]

Okay okay- I'll ask! Just get me outta this stuff!

[He gives a huff and looks at the camera. He looks rather disgruntled]

Say, does anyone out there know where a person can get a couch? Ours kinda...got wrecked the other day and we can't fix it.

Oh and, stuff to seal up holes in the wall? That'd be good too.

Thanks in- [And then he YELLS "OW" as Allen his roommate pulls a piece out of his hair not so gently]

ALLEN! THAT WAS MY HAIR!

[Transmission end!]

... What even happened there, anyways?

[wilder]

I already said, someone had a magic fit- that's all.

[pride_of_amarcia]

... Is that common in your world? There's not a lot of what you'd call "magic" where I'm from - at least, it's not magic to those who know how Cryas and Eleth work.

*Yes, she is in fact curious about this and not suspicious or anything. Pascal Logic at work.*

[wilder]

[And he is more okay talking about the science of it than his family trauma, success!]

Magic? Uh yeah- it's mostly the manipulation and use of mana- but we call it magic for simplicity.

[pride_of_amarcia]

No, no, I mean the magic "fits".

I need to know if I need to keep blockies on me when near sick people from your world.

[wilder]

Oh uh...

I don't think they happen when you're sick? At least I've never sneezed fireballs or anything...

[pride_of_amarcia]

... So what would cause it?

Just so I know what to run away from.

[wilder]

Oh you know, intense emotions sometimes!

But don't worry! It doesn't happen that often!

Now on right account

[pride_of_amarcia]

Huh. That must make some things, uh, highly destructive where you're from.

Like eating a really good pie.

[wilder]

You...really like pie, don't you?

[pride_of_amarcia]

Yup!

Especially Banana Cream ones. I can eat eleven of them before I fill up! So much banana-y goodness...

[wilder]

Eleven?

[A sigh]

Don't you ever...get sick of the taste?

[pride_of_amarcia]

Nope!

[wilder]

That's...really something. Think I'd get dead sick of eating the same thing every day.

[pride_of_amarcia]

That's silly! If it's only something you enjoy sometimes, it's totally not your favorite food!

[wilder]

Maybe I don't have a favorite food then.

[pride_of_amarcia]

Aw. And here I thought I might try cooking for you next time I'm over.

[wilder]

-- What?

[pride_of_amarcia]

I just thought it'd be fun, you know?

[wilder]

Hahaha...

Have you been practicing in your own kitchen?

[pride_of_amarcia]

I don't have one.

[wilder]

What.

How does your apartment not have a kitchen?

[pride_of_amarcia]

I don't even have an apartment. I have a cot in one of the training halls, which I haven't bothered using.

*Actually, by now, she DOES have a room she just hasn't noticed this yet...*

[wilder]

- What, seriously?

But you've been here like a month! They haven't given you a room yet??

[pride_of_amarcia]

Nooope!
