Hey.

[That’s it. One word. Dylas’ voice is low, like usual, but there’s something unsteady about it. Maybe it’s nerves from using the pocketwatch, a device he’s still not used to, or...well.]

I know people have been...changing. It’s, uh. Not great. But...do the changes hurt for anyone else? There’s this spot on... my friend’s arm that’s all grey, and it hasn’t stopped hurting ever since it showed up. Does anyone else have that?

I’m asking for my friend.

[He’s not asking for a friend.]

[OOC; Dylas is infected by the Cwyld after an encounter with some Shades. He’s been hiding it under his clothes, but now his arm is hurting real bad.]

You don't see it on the screen at all?

And I'm still a beginner, but yeah! Everything I learn just a little bit more, and that's what's important.

[He hasn't figured out how to make the punctuation marks switch and at this point he's too afraid to ask twice!!]

that must be nice

i dont think magic fits me at all but i could use it back home

i dont really miss it

[loadme]

You don't? Not at all?

Why's that?

[inquiring minds would like to know.]

[sullenstallion]

[Which statement is she asking about? He's not sure, but then he realizes it's the same answer either way.]

im better at fighting

it feels better to me too

its weird that something i can do is missing but

i can still punch things so thats fine

[loadme]

That's good, isn't it? At least you still have that to fall back on.

I never really learned self-defense, and I'm pretty new all this magic I'm hoping to learn.

I can only get better from here, huh?

[sullenstallion]

you should learn self defense next

magic is fine but not everyone is going to wait around for a spell to be cast

when you get better with magic you should pick up a weapon

[Because THAT'S helpful advice for a young lady. Always.]

[loadme]

You make a pretty good point! I wonder what would be the best weapon to learn.

I've never really used anything like those before.

Any suggestions? You sound like you know a lot!

[She probably still won't pick up a weapon, but at least it's fun to talk about.]

[sullenstallion]

if youve never used a weapon you dont want to start with a blade i guess

so maybe some sort of blunt weapon like a staff or a wooden spear

maybe even your fists

stuff like that

[loadme]

That sounds like a good idea!

The blunt weapon part, not using my, ah, fists.
