[ cloud who routinely summons god from little shiny rocks: cannot relate ]

... That it?

[mygod]

[ fuck u ]

Yes. Call it research if you want.

[residentmerc]

What, you a scientist?

[mygod]

[ hojo is out here. ]

I am a wizard.

[ they say this very seriously. ]

[residentmerc]

...

[ is a wizard who joins a cult to summon a god too cliche. this isnt a cloud thought this is a me cult. cloud is like ok sure ]

Then why'd you need the cult to summon a god?

[mygod]

[ a you cult. ]

I want to see the way they perform the summoning and if it works. Do you know many wizards who are able to summon gods?

[residentmerc]

[ they come in little glass marbles... ]

Don't know a lot of wizards in general.

[mygod]

[ cheaters. ]

That's rather disappointing to hear.

[residentmerc]

[ get good! ]

Hoping there was an easy fix for your god interest?

[mygod]

Well, I am not entirely interested in meeting a god to beg them for something. I dislike them, if I'm honest. Gods, and faith, and other such things which can't be studied and quantified.

It was... skeptical curiosity.

[residentmerc]

... So magic's fine, but you draw the line at gods?

[ is he SURE he's not a scientist*

*ignore the pronouns ]

[mygod]

[ YOU ASSIGNING THEM HE ]

I perform magic. I can see it, feel it, create it, destroy it. I have never seen a god.

[residentmerc]

[ he-coded...

thinks about how odin was in his back pocket. anyway ]

Destroy it?

[mygod]

[ shoots cloud dead honestly. ]

Yes. It depends on the school, but if it's created, it can be destroyed.

[residentmerc]

[ please. ]

Like a counterspell...?

[mygod]

[ no i take it back ]

It's a very... base way to look at it, but yes, like a counterspell.

[residentmerc]

What's the difference?

[ NO TAKEBACKS KILL ME ]

[mygod]

Nothing to you, I suppose. But as someone who studies and practices a very specific kind of magic, there are some tiny differences is all.

[ no ]

[residentmerc]

Guess I'll take your word for it. [ but on that thread ] What kind of specific magic do you study?

[mygod]

It is a branch of magic which my culture keeps mostly to ourselves, and I would rather not say.

To put it very simply, it deals with time and some other such correlating things.

[residentmerc]

... Time, huh.

[ ah yes. like haste and slow. the time materia. nods ]

Fair enough. You don't wanna share, you don't wanna share.

[mygod]

Yes, time.

[ see? cloud gets it. great! ]

Thank you for understanding.
