[ UHHHHHHH ]

Nothing! Anymore anyway . . .

[jackoclubs]

Should I change the question to what were you doing?

[bejeweled]

[ ssssssssigh ]

I was trying to use a rock the same way I would a jewel . . . there's no reason as to why it shouldn't work but . . .

[jackoclubs]

[a bit dryly] That would make slightly more sense if I knew how you usually used jewels.

[bejeweled]

I told you I was mage, right . . .?

[jackoclubs]

When we first met. But you didn't really give details.

[bejeweled]

I usually use jewels for magic.

[ slight huff ]

But when I arrived almost all of mine were gone.

[jackoclubs]

[aaaaah] So that's what you were looking for.

. . . wonder if you could convince a god to give you some.

[bejeweled]

Ambre offers jewelry but I was hoping I could just use a rock instead. They have some of the same characteristics . . .

[jackoclubs]

[glancing at the charred. . . thing]

But apparently aren't similar enough.

[bejeweled]

[ s-sigh ]

. . . yes. It should have worked but . . .

[jackoclubs]

Maybe you need to adjust your spell to make up for the differences between jewels and rocks. They're similar, but not the same.

[bejeweled]

[ hmm ]

That's a thought. . . at home I don't have to use rocks so I never do . . . I guess that's made me lazy, right?

[jackoclubs]

[snrk] The great magus Tohsaka Rin? Getting lazy? Geez, and here I thought you weren't the lazy type.

[bejeweled]

[ HAIR TOSS ]

Even great magi can get complacent in our power! That's the burden of being so amazing.

[jackoclubs]

[pfffft] Truly amazing mages don't become complacent in their powers at all. Confident is a different matter, but you've always gotta be improving yourself!

[bejeweled]

Hey now!

[ tries to shove him '-'!!! ]

[jackoclubs]

[ducks out of the way, snickering]

I'm teasing, I'm teasing!

[bejeweled]

I'll turn you into a frog or something!

[jackoclubs]

Oi oi, do you really want to room with a frog?

[bejeweled]

. . .

A puppy then.

[jackoclubs]

. . . so cruel, Tohsaka-san.

[bejeweled]

It might agree with you! Puppies are definitely adorable too.

[jackoclubs]

I don't need a puppy to be charming.

[bejeweled]

Oh? Somehow I didn't notice.
