shitposting rave 4: (almost) anything goes

[aw, she is pretty cute! he puts his hand to his chin and crosses one leg over the other in his air-chair]

Hmmm. Hmmm!

Sounds like you might be able to do a lot more if you did the ritual whatsits! But-

[he wrinkles his nose in distaste. he has a weird feeling about this kid, and doesn't want to get on her bad side]

Math. Disgusting!

 

you sure i should be pointing you at my head, then?

 

-She laughs.-

Well, it's more- don't tell anyone this okay?

 

Wouldn't think of it! Us magicians have to stick together, yeah?

[he leans in and cups a hand over one ear. this is completely unnecessary and looks kind of silly, as his ears are a bit larger than his hands, but oh well]

 

Of course, Good Sir. Such is the mercurial nature of empiricism. It is through trial and erring that society has advanced to a state of industry and growth. It is through further acts of empiricism that we feed the hungry flames of society's belly. You'd be sure to win a Darwin award for your contribution to science.

 

wait, isnt that a muggle thing? youre clearly not a muggle thing.

 

I'm not as good at math as my brother. He's really smart. I feel stupid.

 

A nonmagical metaphor for a truly magical experience. Subtle ironies such as this are sure to evoke fervent laughter. A good joke can mean the difference between life and death, you should know. The multiverse is vast and ever expanding. In one universe, you might have lost your life so soon as you had lost your humors. A good balance of them is needed if one wishes to use their life productively. An excess of cholera with a deficiency for the sanguine may prove quite hazardous to your health in the long run...>_>......<_<.........Or in the short term. :o)

 

shut up.

 

Jezebel sighs. "I'm not as good at math as Mason OR as either of my parents." She looks like she'd like to hug Mab. "But actually, the rituals really do help."

 

There's a lot of things I'm not good at. I think that's just, hm, I think it's part of the trade off for being good at other things!

I'm not even good at every flavor of magic! I think you can still be smart and not be as good as your brother at some things.

[he is struggling somewhat with how best to handle this tactfully. how even do you treat kittens]

 

Is something the matter, Orphaner? I am only acting the harlequin. :o)

 

Well, Mason can't do magic at all, so there's that.

-She looks smug.-

 

[he laughs]

Well, there you go! He's probably jealous that you can conjure things up and make people tell the truth and all that.

[decisive nod]

 

"Our Mason can," says Jezebel, "but he and Alex are good at different things. I'm not nearly as good at magic as either of them. But--I can fight!"

 

*grins* That's exactly how my magic works!

 

"I live there in my dimension as of now, but I originally came there to do something I'd forcefully forgotten about for a majority of my existence- not too long after I first gained the power I have now. Honestly? I probably would have thrown the entire dimension into a state of chaos and destruction. Nothing pretty, and nothing I'm proud of."

[ Ooh, no worries! S-411 definitely has some things bent away from canon as is. ]

 

Yeah! And let me tell you, together we make quite the team!

 

I believe it!

[he's a little hesitant now, wondering exactly what she and her brother could do if they put their minds to it. a lot more than have someone tell the truth, probably...]
