So I hear there are all sorts of different types of ~~sympathy~~ 'magic' here. I know I'm new here, but I thought it might be a good idea if we all got together and learned what we could from each other? It seems like we'd all end up gaining something from that.

	I have known a witch who shared with me her craft. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A witch? I'm sorry, I don't know this word. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Female version of 'wizard'. Generic term in some worlds/timelines for magic user. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So a wizard is like an arcanist...? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As I said, it's a generic term. Applied to almost anyone who practices magic. Harry might have more to say on the topic; I'm from a magicless world. Long story short is witch is a female magic user. I can't speak to further distinctions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, thank you for that. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You come from a world of flight and that is not magic? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	afterthendtimes 2013-09-14 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	No, it's science. Cesare compared it to Da Vinci. Like that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have never met Leonardo himself, mind you, but I understand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yes, like your brother said, inventors. An airplane isn't magic any more than a gun or boat is. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	for_family 2013-09-14 07:58 pm UTC (link)
	Inventors. They do things that are like magic, but call it science. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vaticanjewel 2013-09-14 08:02 pm UTC (link)
	It is difficult to tell the difference between the two, brother. ~~They are both beyond us~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	for_family 2013-09-14 08:06 pm UTC (link)
	I know, and they're not gifted at explaining the difference either. Though Georgia and one other tried. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vaticanjewel 2013-09-14 08:11 pm UTC (link)
	Do you yet understand the computer, Cesare? I want to see an airplane. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	for_family 2013-09-14 08:13 pm UTC (link)
	Understand? No. But I can use it, I'll show you an airplane sis. The google is unhelpful but for that it'll be enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Are you a witch, then? Were you able to...practice the craft? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vaticanjewel 2013-09-14 08:01 pm UTC (link)
	I- Such a title can be dangerous, Cassiopeia, but I can see why such knowledge might be useful. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucrezia cassiopeiablack 2013-09-14 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	I shan't tell anyone. I know your brother isn't...appreciative of witchcraft. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cassiopeia vaticanjewel 2013-09-14 08:19 pm UTC (link)
	Thank you. It is not that I fear his reaction, but I don't think he could understand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucrezia \| Cassiopeia cassiopeiablack 2013-09-14 08:24 pm UTC (link)
	No, I don't suppose that he would. Don't fret, I'll be sure to keep your secret. Only - it's your decision, of course, but you might want to consider whether meeting up with these other magic users here is a good idea? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucrezia \| Cassiopeia vaticanjewel 2013-09-14 08:28 pm UTC (link)
	I will not go, but I find it difficult to deny any instruction that will make my time here less unpleasant. Five hundred years is... a very long time to not know a thing about. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucrezia \| Cassiopeia cassiopeiablack 2013-09-14 08:31 pm UTC (link)
	Then have Cesare teach you? My brother is teaching me what I need to know, and anything outside of that I can find out about by talking to others here that I can trust. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucrezia \| Cassiopeia vaticanjewel 2013-09-14 08:33 pm UTC (link)
	I believe I can trust Georgia. May I count you as well? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucrezia \| Cassiopeia cassiopeiablack 2013-09-14 08:39 pm UTC (link)
	Georgia? Yes, she's awfully honest and straightforward, you can trust her. And you can trust me, although this place is as foreign to me as to you and I can't promise I'll have answers to give you. In my case it's eighty-two years rather than five hundred, but it might as well be the latter, for all the good it does. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucrezia \| Cassiopeia vaticanjewel 2013-09-14 08:53 pm UTC (link)
	Even so. It is good to know someone who is similarly removed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
