Who: Watanuki + anyone
Where: Baths!
When: Day 148, early morning
What: Morning bath! And moontime mingly post.

[after the mess that was yesterday, there's a noodle trying vainly to bathe himself. getting soap and ... actually getting into the bath without running into things is proving to be stupid hard without his glasses.]

-- ow! S-since when has that been there?

(( Sleep! I'll be back to pick stuff up later. ))

	Sort of. I don't sleep as well as I used to and we keep losing fighters, so I get up early to bring food back. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sorry to hear that... This doesn't seem to be a great place to get a good night's sleep. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-13 03:01 am UTC (link)
	It isn't, really. You sort of get used to it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-13 03:08 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, there's a lot to get used to around here... I guess either I'll find a way to sleep through the night or get used to less sleep. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-13 03:22 am UTC (link)
	Those are basically the options. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-13 03:26 am UTC (link)
	Heh, yeah, there's not really a third choice. Least there's probably a lot of other people in the same boat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-13 06:38 am UTC (link)
	If you get restless, you'll probably find someone else out there who shares the condition. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-13 02:18 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. There's definately no shortage of things to give you nightmares around here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 12:00 am UTC (link)
	Unfortunately. ...this topic is far too depressing for so early in the morning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 01:00 am UTC (link)
	Sorry... m'not quite awake enough to figure out a better one. Even though I've been up a while today. Went out for a walk, got knocked over by a magic guy's tricks... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 01:09 am UTC (link)
	Don't worry about it. Which guy? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 01:16 am UTC (link)
	Orion guy, named Chaz. Sort of got caught up in his earthquakes this morning. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 01:21 am UTC (link)
	nods He's a good friend of mine. Don't worry, he doesn't do that very often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 01:39 am UTC (link)
	laughs I'm not worried. He was nice, made sure I was okay and explained how he was doing it... I didn't know there were ways other than yours to do magic, it was cool! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 01:44 am UTC (link)
	grins It seems like almost every plane has different techniques; it's really fascinating, actually. Materia are interesting because they're trapped memories, essentially. They're from Zack's plane. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 02:48 am UTC (link)
	Trapped memories, huh? Seems kind of appropriate for this place. So is Materia the only way people like me who don't have real magic can use it around here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 03:11 am UTC (link)
	It sort of is; it might be some sort of parallel development. My team's never gotten one, so I haven't had a chance to study one in any real depth, but I'd like to one day. You've got that transmutation thing, don't you? Once you remember how to do it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 03:31 am UTC (link)
	Mm, yeah, I'm just curious what else is out there. Wouldn't have time to do the missions to get one anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 03:40 am UTC (link)
	I'm surprised sometimes at how many different ways people have to use magic. It's different on every plane, but in my memories, they all use the same basic principles. Not here, though; I've seen everything from drawing on the power of spirits and demons, to words that bend the universe around them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 03:50 am UTC (link)
	Wow. Cool! Makes me wonder how my ability works... absently putting his hands together like he's trying to dredge something up, then back to bathing As soon as I remember, I'll be sure to tell you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 03:59 am UTC (link)
	I'll be interested to hear it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 04:03 am UTC (link)
	Mm! nods Hopefully something about it will be the next memory I get back. All I remember now is the motions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 04:15 am UTC (link)
	With some people, the ritual to cast is the key. For me and some others, it's just will and intent, and drawing mana from the world around me, so words and gestures are just a focus. Can you remember how it felt when you did it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	clap_your_hands 2010-07-14 04:18 am UTC (link)
	thinking intently, then bringing his hands up again It felt like energy was moving through me, like putting my hands together was necessary to let it move so I could redirect it. But I can't remember where the energy came from or how to call on it yet... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_mind_group 2010-07-14 04:28 am UTC (link)
	...hmmm. That almost sounds similar to the way I draw on mana: gather it from places it collects in the world, focus it with my mind, release it as a spell. You can't sense any places around you that feel like that energy, can you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
