I don't understand how you don't, in this place.

What is the point, then?

I prefer to have my wits about me.

Magic, apparently.

I don't want my wits about me here. I've had about enough of that.

How does yours work, anyway? I've never seen equipment like yours.

And I haven't. Losing my head over every little thing is hardly productive.

You mean my wand? It's more like a conductor, really.

I wouldn't call this a little thing.

What are its stats?

No, but consider this: With the amount of drinking you does it really change anything? Things still return to the way they were. If not worse.

Wands don't have anything like that. They're just used to help focus our magic.

I got a good amount of time I don't have to think about anything? It's either that or sleep.

Right, they're magic-boosting equipment.

[ What if I've learned something bad and leaned in to flick you on the head. ] And then it all returns. Nothing changes.

Not exactly. You can still perform the same magic without it, but it's much easier with it. Like, for example, as a child I could levitate objects the same way I would now. But it had no focus or control, really, that's where the wand comes in.

Right, it boosted your Magic Power sta-

[FLICKED]

Ow, what the hell?

You're going to do stuff with me from now on. Understand?

[ r... rosella... ]

... Are you asking me out?

[ looks... faintly amused. ]

Of a sort. If that's what it takes then, yes. I'm asking you out everyday here on out to give you other things to do.

-- Wait- you are- What?!

[PLS HOLD I'M CONFUSED AND ALARMED]

If you're drinking to escape then I'm not going to let you. [ Frankly. ] So I'm going to make sure you stay occupied.

... You know, my only hobbies are drinking and sleeping, so if you're wanting something, you're going to have to come up with the something.

That's fine. I can find plenty of things for you to do.

That just sounds like you're going to put me to doing chores.

Maybe sometimes, but no. Even I realize you can't work all the time.

So what do you have in mind, then? Because I don't think you want to see the little fun I had in my memories.

[ ha... ha... I only know mostly work, too. :( ]

I mostly know of spending time together.[ and nearly getting killed, whoops. ] I'd say games, but I think we have enough of what they call that here. Reading, perhaps, or exploring.

[i have studying, failing at studying, failing at making my parents happy, and fucking my best friend]

Dungeon run sounds okay, I guess, but I didn't think reading was a group activity.

[ ...idk this reference so i'm just going to pause at that. ]

It can be. You read out loud.

Seriously?

[is our first group activity together going to be explaining my vocabulary]

You should know by now I'm hardly ever not serious.

[ possibly ]

Seems a little childish...
