[August 3 stars off. . . weird.]

[The morning bell chimes at 6 a.m., as it usually does! But there appears to be a very thin layer of fog settled against the ground outside. Some of it seeps into the school's hallways, before dissipating in a few wisps of haze. Weird??]

[As the day goes on, you feel like you can hear strange whispers echoing in the air-- a voice, hissing the word miiiiiiiine over and over again. Also weird!]

[And by the time the afternoon hits, you may find yourself running into some very unwanted guests. You've been here two weeks, and this is the first time you're seeing these guys?? Where have they been??]

[By the way, the nurse's office is unlocked!]

[ at least it isn't meant to be condescending? girl just has a negative charisma stat. ]

Just now? Yes, undoubtedly. But I am learned in magics; I may yet find us some way.

[ yuffie is just a kid who hates being talked down to like a kid ]

Like what kinda magic can you do?

[velluminous]

I may administer terrible shocks, or puppet another, alter my appearance, influence another's mind, shield against harm, enfeeble and enervate... Oh, it is such varied answer!

[mogger]

Badass.

[ more sketchy than badass, but that doesn't seem to phase yuffie at all ]

Can ya do that any of that here?

[velluminous]

No. [ and this REALLY sours her. she gestures dismissively with her bad arm, flinches. ] I cannot touch threads of Weave, if it even exists here. There is... wall. Between it and I. Horrible feeling.

[mogger]

Yeah, I getchu. I'm missing my ninjutsu right now, and it sucks.

[ she got materia back, but it's not the same!! ]

[velluminous]

I loathe to think what is being done with our stolen competencies.

[mogger]

You think someone has the powers we're missing?

[ that hadn't occurred to yuffie ]

[velluminous]

If I am thinking of this from fey perspective still, it would follow. Fey steal what is not theirs and use it for whatever nefarious ends. Ghosts... I have never known ghosts to care for names, or their power. This maybe is something new.

[mogger]

So Fey are the jackasses who want names and powers?

[ interesting. yuffie's never heard of those kinds of monsters ]

I haven't known the undead to care about names or.... whatever, either.

[velluminous]

Strange, no? And yet... perhaps these ones do.

But... if they are anything like fey, then they should fiercely guard their own name, for this blade cuts in both directions.

[mogger]

Iiiiiinteresting.

[ very good to know ]
