no subject
native to here
guess it's just personalities
been here long enough, having gone through it
i guess maybe some of them think shit's just obvious now ?
i dunno
(see: it's really not)
anyway i'm alright otherwise yeah
it's no fun but not so bad that i can't like
walk and get stuff
no subject
Desensitization's a real thing, I can't blame em but you're right. It's not obvious.
no subject
and like
thank god for it
the only thing i've been hearing about more than like
GET YOU A BOND IMMEDIATELY
is like
oh hey the coven will help
there are Resources
possibly the only reason i'm not like
out of my mind
options are good to have
no subject
What is with the bond stuff. afaik it's to stop your magic/instincts from going haywire, but I haven't actually gotten extreme reasons. I've seen witches walking around with your avg animal familiars. ig older witches but idk.
It's kind of uncomfortable to think about, isn't it?
no subject
they started in on that since like i got here
they try and rope you into speed dating to make it easier or smth
other people tell you outright like
lol yeah you're gonna go feral if you don't it's SO funny !!
i guess that can be more or less extreme depending on how you feel about going feral
or having your magic flip out
it might be easier for witches
i dunno if monsters can like bond with animals or something
but yeah real uncomfortable between like
IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD IF YOU DON'T
and also like idek
FORM LITERAL BOND WITH ACTUAL STRANGERS
then they say it's actually not a big deal
so it's like
"this isn't a big deal except it's actually a huge deal so stay on top of that"
extremely weird
no subject
Maybe we should start some kind of support group for people who're pissed off about having all this treated so lightly, lol I'd join and be like one of the heads of the organization.
I don't get on well with most ppl right off the bat so how am I supposed to bond within like a month or smth??
no subject
and not just because free donuts
lol and then they'd probably tell everyone in the group to bond with each other
cuz clearly we're probably all gonna be un-bonded
you'd think if they wanted people to like.. connect like that
they might bring people here who are most likely to wanna connect
'they' being whoever makes executive decisions about who gets sucked in through the mirrors or whatever
i basically just don't want people all in my head like that haha
but also tryna save whoever tries bonding with me the trouble too lol
like no one understands someone's particular flavour of bullshit better than they do probably
i'm realistic about this
i'm not out here wanting to inflict that on others lol
no subject
That's not the regular kind of response I'm used to hearing about people having someone in their head. Usually it's shyness about the whole "sharing feelings" bit. You okay?
We've got time, so don't stress too much about it. Worst case scenario, if you wanna try it on for size then temporary bonding potions might be your best bet. Just to get you by without you and a partner inflicting too much of yourselves on one another?
no subject
some people have said that too
more or less
just that 'you're overreacting stop that' mood
see, i'm fine
i'm used to whatever goes on in my head
i've basically seen the kinda stuff that sticks with you after awhile
since i dunno how much gets passed through bonds that you don't want to pass
i have no idea how much stuff that no one planned for is gonna get piled onto whoever bonds with me lol
i'm guessing (hoping?) those temporary bonding potions are like
bond-lite?
so maybe.. less of the above ??
because i could maybe deal with that
no subject
My teachers seem to think it's a good alternative to actual bonding, but not a full replacement (obviously). I stopped paying attention after that. Lmfao
(( rolls up to the club late af orz ))
that's like hella generous lol
and appreciated ofc
that goes both ways too btw just in case that needs saying lol
i would argue that magic overload > going feral in terms of like
general unpleasantness of the experience so like lmk if you need help with that too
1. you're lucky you get teachers for this !!
2. it sucks you get dragged here and have to go to school
2a. ima guess school sucks because people say it does i wouldn't know rofl

School doesn't so much suck as it does...... make you want to sleep. I'd rather be sleeping. Here, it's cool bc you're learning about things you could never have imagined. And it kinda feels like I stepped into a fantasy novel. I've got a bigger attention span for practical stuff.
You've never been to school?
no subject
[ he has chosen to selectively ignore every instance of blowing something up whenever he'd applied energy to it in his own experience with his own powers back when he still had powers. this is different!! also there's all kinds of other nonsense to worry about so why add to it? IT'S FINE BE POSITIVE GO. ]
yeah i've never been lmao
i mean we were like... educated basically
and someone helped me learn other languages
but it wasn't really "school" at all
no subject
(sweet summer child)
no subject
[ you have no idea ]
no subject
(WE'RE MISINTERPRETING EVERYTHING NOW.)
ig it teaches kids to socialize and stuff but they expect all kids to learn one way when we all think differently. Or maybe I'm just a dumbass, who can say?? Lol
What was that like? Did your parents teach you or whatever?
no subject
ah yeah kids are weird tho so it's probably not just you lol
we had a lot of like.. stuff to memorise?
you know like multiplication and whatever
or how to write all these really difficult words no one even uses cuz the practise is supposed to be good or make you mindful or whatever idek.
my father helped me learn other languages tho so there's that
no subject
What languages do you know?? ik they aren't too useful in Aefenglom but whatever it's still smth you gotta brag about.
no subject
i know japanese and korean and english
which is like five alphabets
but so pointless now ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
no subject
(why that in particular? we aren't sure.)
Or knitting, or filling out crosswords.
no subject
i'm pretty good at video games
which is really nice for making extra money
but we can't really do that here either
so i guess i mean i don't really have any useful skills for magic fantasy land incompatible with all my most awesome abilities
someone should teach me how to fight or smth
no subject
You've got abilities back home?? I think ik just the guy who knows what that's like and who knows how to fight.
You see the responses from that guy struggling to communicate desperately with emoji? Ask him.
(yeah, he's reading that adorable bullshit right now. you two are a gift to him.)
no subject
i'm sure i'd like a lot of stuff too but those are the ones people would try and bet on
OH
and like
dancing games
PARA PARA PARADISE
one time the guy who ran the arcade i went to all the time let me have free plays
and i played it so much my arms got so sore and tired i couldn't lift them above my head for like a few days
WORTH IT
idol games and the horse racing games are fun too
also there's one with like a piano
i think i hurt myself playing pop'n music too but no REGRETS
also yeah i used to be able to do a bunch of stuff before but now it's like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
it's weird not having it
i'm not saying i cheated at stuff but like... SOME THINGS were easier
kinda like saying a person's cheating because they have hands if everyone else in the world was a dog :T
he knows how to fight ?? his emojis are telling me that he wants to dance really badly
no subject
I haven't played most of those like the idol ones or the horse racing ones (didn't even know those existed tbh), but I was like super into NBA2K and the GTA games. Some shooters ig too, like Modern Warfare. War games were cool. I tried DDR once, is that like para para paradise...??
How did you get your arms involved????? I was tripping all over the place, but I hung onto that bar like I was gonna die lmfao.
(he's a dudebro... you've met a dudebro.)
Is he mad at you or smth? They definitely aren't dancing emoji, so it sounds like he wants to fight.........
no subject
i played some shooting games before but i don't think i played modern warfare. they had a few with like zombies or whatever tho!
lmao para para paradise is kinda like ddr but instead of stepping on arrows you move your arms around instead and the machine can like read that
i think it had like lights or lasers or smth so you'd block those with your hands to know you were doin it right
anyway you could like just do whatever as long as you put your hands in the right spot at the right time or you could actually learn the dances for each song so i was tryna learn the dances..
soooo i dunno if he's mad at me
I HOPE NOT I'VE DONE NOTHING WRONG
HMMMMM
