I'm easily offended.

I don't know. I doubt we get any special magic training or knowledge.

Though if you didn't visit Elphame last month, I recommend you do at some point. You can get your magic upgraded and that's a step towards something. Kinetic mages can learn to phase through walls.

Maybe you can sneak into some secret section of the library. I can turn a blind eye.

[schmisse]

I've already learned to teleport, albeit short distances. With more practice, I'm sure I'll improve. So I don't see the need to learn that sort of magic.

I'm sure I'll be able to break into the library easily.

[ Five seconds later, she sends a follow-up text. ]

Wait.

Don't you dare think I intend to be a criminal in this place!

[ D: being a former wanted criminal in Atlas is enough! ]

[rustyhonesty]

[He's laughing at her. Definitely laughing.]

I don't know. This conversation is giving me a criminal image of you.

[But he will also send a follow up text.]

You do know I'm kidding, right? I wouldn't let you even try to sneak in.

But I am serious about the magic upgrade. Drag Cloud with you if he hasn't been there either.

[schmisse]

Joking or not, I would never commit a crime, or break the rules of any library.

[ Why is the second one important to even note??? ]

I want to make that point clear.

And I suppose visiting Elphame will do me some good. I'll ask Cloud if he has the time to go. I don't know if he would be fine by himself if I went.

[rustyhonesty]

Just the library?

[You give him too many opportunities to tease.]

Why do you think that? Surely he would be fine by himself for a little while?

[schmisse]

In this conversation? Yes.

I suppose, but he'll miss meals, get into fights, and be late for his appointments.

[ ... and she probably won't be able to sleep. But that's a secret she'll keep to herself. ]

[rustyhonesty]

You make him sound like a child.

[schmisse]

He's not, I assure you! But he's not used to taking care of himself just yet.

[rustyhonesty]

You know, somehow I can see that. That flu post of his was pretty telling.

[schmisse]

I don't think he's used to getting sick, either.

That was probably the first time he caught a cold in ten years or so.

[rustyhonesty]

Oh. That would explain a lot.

Come to think of it, I don't know much about Cloud in general. Or you.

[schmisse]

Don't the two of you talk often?

[ She doesn't know much about Jean either, but... he's more Cloud's friend than hers, so this is surprising. ]

[rustyhonesty]

We do, but usually nothing too deep about our lives.

My original world isn't really a fun story to share and I guess I've never really asked about Cloud's.

[schmisse]

I don't think he'll open up if he's not asked...
