good morning starshine

[leggierissimo]

Howdy, Grove.

Is anyone here proficient in magic?

Comments

[cryopathy]

Sure. You looking for any sort in particular?

[leggierissimo]

Not particularly. Though, out of curiosity, what kind are we talking about here?

[cryopathy]

Air and ice manipulation, for my part.

How did you discover your pet's... tastes?

[leggierissimo]

Oh, he told me.

Ice is likely the better of the two. Can you make ice, or just manipulate it?

[cryopathy]

You can speak to many animals, or just him?

Both. How does this work, exactly?

[amethystic]

resident witch, at your service

[leggierissimo]

Ah, good. How would you feel about feeding a hedgehog?

[amethystic]

normally the answer would be 'fuck yes' but this feels loaded and i'd like more information, please

[leggierissimo]

Nothing loaded about it. I have a quite sick little hedgehog that I've been taking care of, and he needs magic. I've been letting him feed off of my own here and there, but I'm sure he could do with a variety.

[amethystic]

what methods are you using? trying to separate my magic from me has gone




badly

in the past. but given his recognition of me, mine may be helpful?

[succiduous]

We call it "Arts" where I'm from, but I can assist with any matters pertaining to cryokinesis.

[leggierissimo]

Ah, ice, then? It could work.

Any interest in making a popsicle for a hedgehog?

[succiduous]

...sure?

Come to the lab when you have a moment. The door is unlocked.

[leggierissimo]

Thank you for your contribution.

[And in no time - like, literally no time, almost immediately after the writing appears in the book - Joshua is opening the door to the lab, a small, brown satchel over his shoulder.]

You called?

[succiduous]

[what the fuck okay.]

I did. I believe this is our first time meeting. [Gnosis... does not go outside much. The lab is a fucking mess right now; he's clearly working on something vaguely leg-shaped.] Gnosis Edelweiss. I apologise for the mess.

[purevanillacookie]

Quite a few! What is it you require, my friend?

[leggierissimo]

Good to hear! I'm trying to feed a hedgehog. Any interest?

[purevanillacookie]

Of course! Is there any specific type of magic, or simply the energy associated with it?

[leggierissimo]

Just the energy should be enough. If you can conjure something physical, or imbue something with it, those seem to be the best options.

[purevanillacookie]

Ah, as luck would have it, I have something perfect for such a thing! Where shall I meet you?

[unheiring]

In a manner of speaking, yes. Call it "pyrokinesis" for simplicity's sake.

Am I to understand you are trying to feed a... hedgehog?

[leggierissimo]

Ah, now there's one I haven't seen yet. Adds to the variety!

Yes. He's very low on magic.

[unheiring]

I see. And is this creature native to your world? Or this one?

[leggierissimo]

Oh, no, he was very much already here when I got here. Barely clinging on, but here nonetheless.

[unheiring]

Right...
And how did you learn he was in need of magic to survive? Why not other sustenance?
