With Monika taking over most of the day-to-day duties running the refugee school and me only really teaching one or two classes a day there, now, I've come to realize I am left with well more free time than I should probably responsibly have.

[ there were reasons for that, of course, but she doesn't go into them. but anyone that's seen her since February already knows why, or can at least reasonably guess. her disability ran a bit further than simple needing a cane to get around. ]

So, seeing a whole new batch of mirrorbound, many of whom are witches new to this world's magic, I figure since I've been here well over a year myself I could

offer myself as a magic tutor!

Personalized, one on one lessons. Any school you could think of, I know at least enough to help teach it by now. But I am especially interested in helping those who have an interest in divination. Astrology has always been my specialty.

[ please give her something to do, her Bonded are going to be driven crazy at this rate. ]

I'm sure I could vouch for you, too.

Although I may come off as a bit biased!

[beariot]

Well you HAVE worked with me for a good while now. I'd say that accounts further than bias.

[loadme]

I'll still expect to see you there, though! One-or-two classes may be all, but don't think you can disappear completely!

[beariot]

Trust me, the kids would definitely never let me hear the end of it if I missed the classes I'm still teaching.

[ they'd all been traumatized by what happened to her during the kidnapping enough, as it was... ]

[loadme]

They ask about you all the time, too ♥

You've done so much for them, after all.

[ She comes across the post after an unfortunate morning of poorly executed magic. Granted, she is very new here, with no prior experience, and surely it's only natural that she wouldn't get a grasp of it within just a few days, but...

McCree is catching on quicker than she is, and it bugs her.

She's composed a message several times, deleted it and then put it off for later. Rinse and repeat that cycle throughout the day. Finally, by the end of the day, she's fed up and too tired to care anymore. ]

Alright, I'll bite.

I need a tutor.

I don't even care what you teach me, so long as I can come out the other side hating magic a little less.

[beariot]

Well

You definitely should try to approach magic with a more open heart than that, I think. If you approach it with resentment, it will definitely effect how your mana flows.

[deadlock_diva]

Think I'd rather approach it with a baseball bat and beat it into submission.

[ Frustrated? What's that? ]

But we'll do it your way.

I don't have any experience at all. Didn't even believe in magic before coming here, because there was nothing like this back where I'm from.

[beariot]

[ Well, it wasn't like Ashe's approach was entirely new to her... She'd have to adjust her tutoring method, to be sure. ]

We don't have to do it my way. This isn't really about anyone's way. What's more important is finding something you're comfortable with.

Not everyone learns the same way. I can help you get there.

[heartmunculus]

If you're offering, I'd like to take you up on it. There's a lot I don't know. The magic here seems to function very differently than what I know.

[beariot]

I'm more than happy to help! You're not alone in a lack of familiarity. It takes some getting used to.

[heartmunculus]

How long have you been learning magic here?

[beariot]

Over a year now. And I was an experienced witch and educator back where I come from, too.

[beariot]

[ Oh. Oh Akko. ]

I appreciate the vote of confidence, Akko.

[recklessbelief]

i'm glad you're finally advertising yourself!
i've been telling lots of people that they should ask you for help if they're getting stuck

[beariot]

Wait, just how many people have you been telling about me?

[judgementor]

How generous of you to offer your services.

[He doesn't need said services, but it's been a while since they last spoke... and maybe he was looking for an excuse.]

[beariot]

I wish I could say it was just generosity, but that can't really take full credit, if I'm being honest. Part of it's boredom, after all.

[judgementor]

That's fair, though there are many things one might do to alleviate boredom that don't involve helping other people.

[beariot]

That may be so, but I know what I prefer to do when it comes down to it, and teaching is just a calling I can't ignore, you know?

[inheirence]

You've really been here more than a year?

[ He'd heard at the Head Witch's meeting that this Mirrorbound stuff has been going on for a while, but a whole year and beyond... wow. ]

I'm new, if that didn't give it away, and a Witch. I've never thought about magic in terms of schools before coming here, so
Help would be
Helpful.

[beariot]

Well my tutoring should hopefully be of use to you, then!

Was there a particular specialty you wanted to focus on?

[inheirence]

Thank you very much. I hope I'll be a good student, too.

I want to make a barrier. That falls under abjuration, right?

[beariot]

Correct! See, you're already on the right track if you're getting your vocabulary down.
