[ Marina's sitting on her bed, laptop on her crossed legs, making the video a little wobbly. The wall behind her has some popular band poster or another - she rotates the spot above her bed fairly often - and she looks relaxed. More than she usually does when Numbers stuff is involved, at least.

She drums her fingers on the laptop. ]

Anyone here have a sword?

[ Very serious about this. ]

Other me had a sword, and Anais has a sword here, and other her had a sword back there. I figure I can get an echopulsething if I like, grab a real sword? Or learn how to use it? I'm not just crazy thinking that, right?

[ Actually looking for Echoes is new for her too. ]

So, I guess what I'm saying is, if anyone would like to help? Um, promise I won't, like, get myself hurt either, okay? Thanks. You're great.

At least you guys with swords.

What uh -- [Darts a glance between her and the sword and her again - clears his throat with a voiced " -- Hmm!"] -- What is -- she...

-- Doing with swords; how was she trained...? Um.

-- Why does she fight - ? - I mean -- Is she a.

[Gives up on that phrasing. Starts again and retries from the original thought.] ... -- What was she - ?

[dragon_blossom]

[ You're difficult to talk to man, holy hell. ]

Figh...ting? I don't know, most of the fighting I remember was with magic anyways, but I figure she, y'know, jabbed it into some baddies.

[scramasax]

Oh -- then uhmm... [Another fidgety back and forth glance, voice thins out and withdraws a little...] -- Swords weren't - her... - focus -- ... [That shall do well enough as the word.]

You're right - sp -- ...Specific would - be... - best, perhaps...

[dragon_blossom]

Might've been? I don't have enough memories back to be sure how she fought, just that I already had a sword... she... had one before she learned any magic.

[scramasax]

[Just barely skipping another halt.] -- What type of magic - ...?

[Tapping at the short sword's point.]

[dragon_blossom]

Water! A big fuckoff dragon made out of water that pretty much just smashes people. I bet it like, breaks people's bones.

[ She looks pleased with that. ]

[And he, on his end, looks impressed with the image!

His brow is elevated a tad. Some of the movement size is distracted out of his fidgeting.]

-- Uh, how did it work -- ? [Not a crack but a rasping edge as his voice sort of crashes into a padded spot.] -- Casting - ! I mean. - Er, did she need anything to do it - ? Or - was it just a - just a learned skill?

[dragon_blossom]

[ She's awesome yeah? Yeah. ]

Well I like, raise my hand, and... there's... I have to think really hard at it and yell the name of the spell like an anime.

I had it beamed into my head by a wizard talking through a Tinymon, though, basically. Weird shit.
