It's been a couple months now, so i've gotta ask...

Does anybody here actually understand how this dreamotion stuff works?! I tried watching people, I tried asking the locals about it, I tried doing it myself, and it's not making any frickin sense! it's like magic right? so maybe i'm just no good for it, my people aren't exactly known for their skill with astral artes.

[unless you're Rinwell. But she's special.]

Unless somebody can actually teach me maybe I should just give up. It's not like I actually need this stuff, right?

Maybe you're just not in tune enough with yourself and your emotions. Emotionally stunted, if you will.

[zephyrean]

What? No way, I'm totally in tune with my emotions!

[He really isn't. Not like he thinks he is, anyway.]

[darkcharge]

Oh is that right.

So can you tell me what you're feeling right now?

[zephyrean]

Annoyed.

{Hey, he asked.]

[darkcharge]

Because your magic isn't working?

[zephyrean]

because some punk is implying I don't know how I feel.

[Even though he's kind of right about you, Law.]

[darkcharge]

To be fair, I'm a bit shocked to hear that you even know emotions beyond 'anger' or 'good' or 'bad.'

[zephyrean]

That first one is something I'm feeling pretty strongly right about now.

[darkcharge]

Now now. Letting those sorts of bad, nasty things get the better of you is a sure way to attract a nightmare. Or become something of one yourself.

[Ugh, Vanitas is quickly working his way to the top of Law's shit list here. ...Well, behind all the people he really loathes, of course.]

Ugh, you're what they call a troll, aren't you?

[darkcharge]

Not exactly. An expert on emotion, actually.
