[Kari was sulking.]

[Or at least, that's certainly what it was, even if she wouldn't admit it to herself. She's been out of sorts since Beardface went home -- the first time someone "close" to her has left Luceti, after over a year of being here. It felt strange, and she wasn't really sure what to do about it. Should she be sad? Angry that he went home while she's still stuck here? Or should she just get over it because that's the nature of this place? She wanted to go home. She could feel it so strongly in every part of her body. And yet no matter how many times she tried, the magic to take her back to her home world just wouldn't work.]

[On the table in her apartment, the notes left to her by the spirit who possessed her body for nearly a week still sat there, staring at her. A voice in the back of her head that she wasn't entirely sure was hers silently urged her to pick them up. She wanted-- no, she needed to be stronger. And if she had to risk a deal with the devil to do it, so be it.]

[Of course, then she finally picks up the notes and realizes they're written in code.]

[Son of a--]



[Voice - Hoshikyo]
Hello, Lucetizens! Okay, now that I've heard it myself, that's actually kinda terrible... [/ahem]

So, I know that school thing does some kind of class about magic, but I was wondering if there was anyone out there with experience in teaching the more serious stuff. You know, things not related to the filial magic here. Ideally someone with experience dealing with magic that might not come from their own world... but I'm not being terribly picky here.

Of course, I'm not just expecting someone to offer out of the goodness of their own heart or anything. But, I mean, I don't think I have all that much to offer myself, but I'm sure we can figure something out!


[Action - Hoshikyo/Kari]
[Sometime after her journal entry, she reverts back to Kari and goes to the library to get some studying in. She'll need if she's going to figure out exactly what these notes say. Thankfully, it's not entirely code, but the language is pretty heavily ancient. Perhaps if it were written in a nicer hand, it could be picked up by either Luceti's or her own auto-translation power... but for now, it gave her something to do. She's got quite a few stacks of books around her, and no less than 4 open at once. Though every so often, she leans back in her chair with a sigh of frustration. That spirit is a goddamn troll.]

[When she gets too frustrated, she heads over to the battledome as Hoshikyo for some stress-relief. It's been a little while since she's trained proper, so she's a bit rusty -- all the more reason to practice. She'll be focused more on form for her sword fighting, though she may attempt a few tries at magic while she's there.]

Most people in my world probably wouldn't believe other worlds exist too.

[Often theorized in books, yes, and there was still the ongoing search for life in the rest of the solar system, but most people saw it as fiction. What would happen if she came back with stories of another world with wings? Get locked up most likely.]

Is there some kind of census or data pool of where people in Luceti originated from?

[A project for the future? Ginia considers it and jots it down. Maybe others would be interested enough in the project to help out.]

I'll have to go there sometime. I think it would be fascinating reading literature from other worlds.

Mmmhmm.

[She nods and unslings a heavy, traditional longbow from her shoulder. She hasn't progressed far enough at home to have unlocked the Flame Sniper technique, but thanks to Harry and a few others she's more than able to make up for it.]

I need to stay in shape, and in practice don't I? If I don't, I might get slow. Are you here for the same, then?

Isn't it difficult to teach yourself something that comes from another world? [He already has enough trouble managing magic from his own world.]

I suppose if you're using currently comes from another world, it should come easily enough to you.

That's not even including the time you use when you need to control it.

You're really strong. [Hoshikyo has amazing persistence and Shu can't help but be astonished.]

Um...keep up the good work. I'm positive you can reach your goals.

No, of course not! ... But I have learned some stuff on my own! And with help from Helios.

Any particular books you suggest I check out?

Level...up? [She doesn't play video games, okay?]

What sort of technique is it?

[Ginia laughs lightly, a soft chuffing more than a real laugh. A nightmare for any librarian, but exciting for anyone browsing the shelves. A treasure hunt in the most mundane.]

That is always exciting. I'll have to keep an eye out for some novels from other worlds.

What kind of books do you like?

I'm happy to hear you say that. That's a good thing to strive for. More people will be safe thanks to you. [He half wishes that someone like Hoshikyo was in his world.]

You're the first magical girl I've met in Luceti. Are there any other magical girls from your world?

Oh? So...you can't really direct the energy well, then? Is that it?

[Mars looks over and inspects the hand as well. Huh.]

Have you tried focusing it, forcing the power to flow up into the blade, away from the hilt?

Exactly! And about half the things I try don't work for me anyway.

[Mars reaches out quickly to stop her on reflex...but...then the sword goes through and she blinks.]

What? Well...that's certainly not a normal sword, no.

Why is it like that? It doesn't seem like it'd be much good in a fight.
