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?

What if I could punch 'em with shields? Like, put a shield on my fists and then BAM hit 'em with that? That'd be a good way to get closer to 200% right?

[...Yeah sorry Satan he is indeed ONE OF THOSE.]

[angelbirth]

Okay. I don't want to agree with you, but I do concede that if you did that then you'd have a better visualization of how your dreamotion energy is progressing.

Seriously, though? It's doubtful that FIST IS FOR FITE is going to get you very far with magic. I implore you to explore other options.

[zephyrean]

What about my legs, then? I could put magic shields on my legs to make FRICKIN' AWESOME greaves to elevate my leg strength even higher than it is!

[Do you regret suggesting shields now, Satan?]

[angelbirth]

[ He's regretting a lot of things right now!! ]

I think you're jumping the gun here. It's probably going to take you a long time to get noticeable results.

But sure, give yourself magic greaves. Just hope they're solid enough so that when you swing your leg into something your bones don't shatter on impact.

You're giving me mixed signals here. Giving me all this encouragement and knowledge and then telling me it'll still take a long time to get anywhere, seems kinda at odds at one another don't you think?

[angelbirth]

I don't think they're at odds. I'm setting up realistic expectations for you. If you were to prove me wrong and excel quickly, wouldn't that be for the best?

Take it as a challenge and prove me wrong.

[Satan is playing mind games with Law here, and unfortunately he's completely winning at it.]

Fine, you can take your expectations and shove it, because I'm gonna smash right through them!
