[Though the temperature starts to cool quite a bit once the sun sets, it just assures the air is still crisp and clear and the sky offers a beautiful view: Thusia's three different-sized moons drifting slowly through an endless field of stars, illuminating the fields and rivers below.

If you're still outside, the dimmed lights of the hallways in the HQ shine through the windows to reflect off the water too, and all around there's the chirping, clicking, or squeaking of nocturnal creatures from the ground or in the grasses.]

...oh.

[approve_dammit]

It takes more concentration and training and shit like that.

[swimswiththefishes]

You could work on it here, if it's more convenient than trying to fight transformed.

[approve_dammit]

Nah, I'm too dumb for shit like that.

[swimswiththefishes]

Nothing gets easier unless you practice it.

[approve_dammit]

...you really think that, don't you.

[swimswiththefishes]

Are you saying your magic doesn't work that way?

[approve_dammit]

I don't know. I don't really know how my magic works.

[swimswiththefishes]

Then how do you know practice won't help?

[approve_dammit]

I. I only got real good with this shit when I was given to Kazuma. So it's probably linked to that.

[swimswiththefishes]

What do you mean?

[approve_dammit]

*...sighs and flops down on the bed*

You ask a shit-ton of questions... I mean I couldn't learn jack shit from everyone else. They kept yellin' at me and shit, but it didn't make it easier. I got better with Kazuma cuz we were linked and I could see the magic.

[swimswiththefishes]

...oh.

[approve_dammit]

Her Ugliness was trying to teach me to control shit before I died, so the earthquakes would stop, but I'm no fucking good at that shit.

[swimswiththefishes]

You can cause earthquakes?

[approve_dammit]

Could. Thank fuck not anymore. ...well, I could probably do it now, but it'd be on purpose.

[swimswiththefishes]

Oh...okay.

[approve_dammit]

...it's cuz I didn't have control, okay? I had too much.

[swimswiththefishes]

But you have more now.

[approve_dammit]

*snorts*

Too much magic. I don't have more control, I just have less magic.

[swimswiththefishes]

...oh, I get it.

[approve_dammit]

...yeah. Dunno. Not having control killed me, so I don't even know if I can get control.

[swimswiththefishes]

That doesn't make sense.

[approve_dammit]

...what?

[swimswiththefishes]

If not having control killed you, wouldn't it be better to get control?
