40th Draw = Open Trolling Season Redux

Alright! Listen up! All of you! Especially you three knuckleheads.

I have a boyfriend!

Thank you and good day! [With that said, the book slams shut and she's gonna go bury her face in the biggest bucket of sand she can find.

ooc: thread is still ongoing but this post just had to be made! Threadjacking encouraged!]

Not much really. Been secretly nicking volumes out of the library when no one can notice I actually read.

So what's this about a boyfriend? Not a pirate, I hope?

Oh? What're you reading then?

No, no, he's not a pirate. He's more of the Knight in the Shining Armor type.

Hm, a little about the magic they have here. I was looking more for history and mythology though. There's a lot to go through.

Oh? [Sounds very approving.]

You didn't happen to find out anything about Nala did you?

Mhmm! His name is Ceodore.

Not yet, sorry. What is it?

And he's a good kid?

Nala's one of the magic spirits here! She's supposed to be the easiest to find and communicate with but maybe I'm not having much luck.

He is. I think you'd like him.

... Huh. Damn. Maybe I have a book on magic from one of the other worlds. Just my luck...
In any case I'm not trying to learn it.

Yeah? I'll have to keep an eye out for him then.

Which world?

Or... you could come down to the House sometime.

Beats me. It's all about... spells? Potions. Whatever. Maybe I should stick to things I know.

Oh. Yeah sure? Would anyone else there mind?

There different kinds of spells. There's ones that heal, others that can do damage and others to protect.

I don't think Ceodore will mind at all.

And people can hypothetically learn all of them?

I'll see what I can do then.

I think so? Where I come from, we can't learn magic at all. We have to equip a special summoning monster called a Guardian Force in order to use magic at all.

Great!

I see. I think I can understand that a little easier, if they're like devil fruit. You keep the forces for life or something?

[And now he's trying to figure out how to openly admit he's an antisocial 34 yo jerk who doesn't have the slightest clue of how to go about just showing up to meet this guy. HM... Enjoy the awkward -thinking- silence Selphie.]

Well... we use magic a bit differently than I think you're thinking of. We can use magic to strengthen of life force but we can also use it to make ourselves stronger. We also use it for defence, healing and attacking.

[Selphie's tempted to break out the coloured pencils and draw something in the meantime...]

... I see. Very different than what I was thinking of. Tch. Such is the complexities of entirely different worlds I guess.

[That would probably actually help him sadly enough. He deals best with little kids.]

I know people that do learn magic though. It's definitely different from world to world.

[Or she'll be her pint-sized semi-bossy self and drag you down there.]

Confusing. Oh fuck it. I'm going to stick to the books on politics and history. Or mysteries.

[That's definitely for the best, since that's how his bff Hina treats him.]

Now where's the fun in sticking to the norm? Ya gotta think outside the box, Smoker!

Tch. My curiosity was only so strong.

Then give it a workout more often!

[Chuckles.]

Maybe. But I'm mostly just curious about the other worlds, so maybe sticking to something familiar will at least make more sense for it.

But you can always broaden your horizons a little bit at a time though.

I still think I'll start with military tactics or something. Maybe work my way up to magic.

Sounds like a good place to me!

So what have you been doing to keep busy?
