003 ☆ ( 03.10 ) TEXT;

[guilds]

[ When idle, her mind would naturally wander to home and concerns or vague considerations revolving around Fiore of the guild, and today was no different. And, well, it’d be a lie to say she wasn’t mildly curious. Carefully, transferring the message over to text, she begins to type, a watchful finger for each key. ]

I’ve noticed that not many of you seem accustomed with the concept of a “guild,” but “magic” is different, right? Which brings me to my next question! ☆

What was magic like back in your world? Was it something commonplace? Reserved for certain types of people? I guess, you could say that I have time to spare and I’m really curious! I’ll be waiting for your replies--! ☆

[ Woah, reins.... what kind of sick hobbies did this guy have? ]

Why are people riding you...!? Are we even talking about humans anymore?

[kuramaless]

[Whaaaaaat?]

What're you talkin' about'ttebayo!?

You know, there's lines in your body!? Everyone's got 'em right?!

1/2

[guilds]

You said reins!

[ Wow, she's only going by what you're telling her!! ]

Yeah, you already said that, too! Poles or whatever!

[guilds]

[ Wait, let her think about this... ]

... did you mean veins?

[kuramaless]

Not poles okay!?

[...]

Er. Yeah, that's what I said, ain't it?

[guilds]

But, you said poles!

[ Geez!!! ]

No, that's not what you said...! You said reins. The material you hold onto when riding an animal.

[kuramaless]

That's stupid, why would anyone have poles or reins in 'em?

[GEEZ. >:|]

Anyway-- It's kinda like that I guess.

[Wow, so much complication for something so simple. He's just frustrated now.]

[guilds]

That's why I was asking!

You think it made sense to me? [ Why is there someone else in this world with logic like Natsu? ]

So, they're basically like veins? And this is the source of your power?

[kuramaless]

Maybe?

Mmn, I guess so. I mean, you could probably ask Hinata-chan, or even Hanabi an' Neji 'cause they have this thing with their eyes where they can see the-- vein things. Man I forget what you call 'em.

Chakra-- veins. Yeah okay, so... I guess you know the chakra goes round and then like. Oh! You know, if you wanna walk on water? You just gotta think about all the chakra goin' to your feet.

[guilds]

They can see them...?! Even though they're supposed to be in your body? [ Well, no matter what, at least there weren't poles or wires or whatever in their bodies. That thought alone was relieving in itself. ... but, doesn't that mean his friends had x-ray vision? ] They can see through skin?

Goes ... round? So it circulates just like our blood... [ She supposes that makes sense in the grand scheme of this entire explanation. ] Is walking on water really that... simple? [ It sounds way too good to be true. ]

[kuramaless]

Yeah. Creepy right? That's cause it's part of what you get when you're a Hyuuga. Er, that's the clan they're in. They don't see it like that all the time, gotta use Byakugan first, right?

Mhm. It's how I learnt how to control my chakra.

[But that's a whole different story.]

It's easy.

[Once he figured it out some many, many hours later.]

[guilds]

[ She shudders at the thought of someone peering at her veins. This is definitely not the mental image she desired! ] It's not something I'd want done to me, that's for sure. Though, I could see why they do it... if chakra were supposed to be where your power is derived from then... [ Hm, that's actually pretty interesting. ]

That easy...? [ A brief pause. ] Would it work if I tried...?

[ LMFAO, say no. ]

[kuramaless]

Yeah, well - there's a whole bunch of other stuff they can do too. There's places where they like-- jab you, and then it stops the flow of chakra?

[That sounded about right.]

Mmmn, well you ain't a ninja, are ya?

[Looooooseeeer.]

[guilds]

Don't they have a special name for that...?

[ Hm. She supposes it'd be something similar to "acupuncture." ]

But, you said it was easy! [ Wow, rude. ] I'm more skilled than I look...!

[kuramaless]

Er. Well, there's a whole bunch of those points on your body? They're called-- Ah, gimme a second.

Tincansoup. No, that's-- nevermind I forget.

[Oh wait, topic change, woo!]

Yeah, easy if you're a ninja. You probably ain't got chakra and stuff where you're from. Not everyone in my village can do it yanno? Oi, not even Bushy Brows can.

[guilds]

Tincansoup... [ There's a large incredulous sigh. ] I have a feeling you're telling me something ridiculous again...

First you talk about lines and pipes and now this... [ Just giving this look. ]

It's not like you explained that from the start. [ But, clearly she has her priorities set and so she asks what any sensible person would-- ] ... and who the heck is "bushy brows"!?

[kuramaless]

[Oops.] I'm sure it sounds like that. Just ask one of 'em.

They are kinda of like pipes though, right? [Totally. What's that look for?]

It's what I was tryin' t'say! [Pfft.]

He's got bushy eyebrows.

[Come on.]

[guilds]

I don't believe you. [ Straight up! ]

You just said they weren't pipes! Stop confusing me! Or trying to confuse me.

[ But, back to the point: ] ... are his eyebrows that bad?

[kuramaless]

Well you should! I'm tellin' the truth. Man, where's Hinata-chan when you need her? [Pout]

THEY AREN'T! But they carry stuff, yanno? So that's a bit like pipes.

[Oh, yes the point. Is he calm enough for it? Hardly.]

Yeah. You should see 'em.

[Just putting his fingers over his own eyebrows there to try and demonstrate.]

[guilds]

Whatever...! [ She exhales loudly in exasperation. ] It's the same thin--

[ And the last part gets a small laugh out of her: ] I don't think that's possible..!

[kuramaless]

They're pipes okay! Pipes carry water, and-- well, these things like carry chakra'ttebayo.

[After the explanation however he stops, grinning and dropping his hands.]

Just wait until you see 'em.
