journal 🌸 dreamotion training!

[indolentaxe]

Hello everyone! Hilda here. ♥

After all of the craziness with the dream thing from last month and everything, I was wondering if there are other people who were surprised to find their dreamotion abilities kind of... lacking.

[Someone slacked off a bit too much, she's realizing!]

Would people be interested in getting together and practicing? I'm not thinking anything violent like fighting. Maybe we could create something cute and practical or something.

Those of you who are in, let me know.

Cute and practical? Hell yeah! I'm in!

I would most appreciate joining your training session, if you have the space. I've found the magic of this place to be rather challenging to use.

[ TBH, all magic is challenging for Zelda. She would rather ignore magic altogether, but it seems like that won't be possible in Songerein. ]

If you don't mind someone who's brand new to this place, I'd love to take you up on that! The more I can learn the better!

[indolentaxe]

That's the spirit! I'm glad I'm not the only one who appreciates that kind of thing.

[indolentaxe]

Ugh, you and me both. I'm finding the whole dreamotion thing to be kind of a pain.

[Even back home, Hilda's not the most magically talented. Couple that with her lack of effort up until now, and... yeah.]

But the more the merrier! We can figure it out together. ♥

[indolentaxe]

OF COURSE I don't mind! You'd better be there when we get it organized.

I can't believe you didn't ask me outright!

[Really, he's kidding— the more people in on something like this, the better, but the need to practice has been on his mind, too.]

I'd like to learn how to put mine to good use, too. Feels like a real waste if we don't, and I don't know that I was much good in that dreamshift without it. I'm always good for hitting things, but might need more than that.

[burnbrighter]

You can count on me!

But if you don't mind my asking, what happened last month?

[topgun_textiles]

Not a lot of people do for some reason. Less when they work out I'm into that stuff, since I'm a guy.

[refire]

I just got here recently so I could use more training myself. Last time I tried using dreamotion it was a mess.

[ He hasn't forgotten how everything spiraled into disaster QUICKLY...so yes alphen would like to learn. ]

[ What's that? Someone else who doesn't particularly like magic? Zelda had been feeling a little ashamed at needing to ask for assistance with something that should already be easy for her (considering how long she's been training). But the possibility that she's not the only one struggling makes her perk up. ]

It all seems rather inconsistent, doesn't it? Something you did once with this dreamotion magic suddenly won't work the second time, or it'll happen when you're not intending to use it.

I haven't spent much time experimenting with dreamotion. It wouldn't be a bad idea to work on getting a better grasp of it.

I'd be honored practicing my dreamotion abilities with other volunteers here. I know like there's a lot I can learn and it's important to never keep a closed mind.

[Maybe he'll get to see what others are capable of. Just. Might be good to know for the future.]

[indolentaxe]

I hate when people get all weird about guys liking those kinds of stuff! Guys are allowed to like cute things.

[In her opinion, MORE guys should be into it. Wouldn't kill them to have some taste.]

[indolentaxe]

It does seem inconsistent. I guess it might be the "emotion" part?

Which is why I want this to be a positive experience for everyone involved.

[indolentaxe]

Oh right! You're new.

Last month we all got sucked into a dream that started as a cute party but turned into a pretty rough nightmare. For some of us, it was kind of a rude awakening.

[Ha ha haaaaaaaa. :| ]

[indolentaxe]

You don't get special treatment just because I know you from back home, Baltie. ♥

[She's also kidding! They're just Like This.]

I think it'll be good for both of us to practice. You could depend on your fists a bit less, and I could afford to fight a bit more glamorously.

[Read: "with less physical effort"]

[indolentaxe]

SAME! And when I first got here it was worse. I nearly keeled over the first time I tried to use it!

[Because she tried to build a whole manor with it without any training. But, details.]

[indolentaxe]

No time like the present! We could use people of all types in our workshopping.

[Hey hey look she's actually taking initiative aren't you proud of her?]

[indolentaxe]

We would be honored if you could join us! It sounds like open-mindedness is what we're going to need most. :)

I'm also willing to join. Having some kind of exercise might help give everyone focus.

[grappleking]

And why the hell not, huh?

[They are absolutely just Like This.]

It would be good to learn to be a little more versatile.
Does that mean you're hoping this will be less work than swinging an axe around?

[dangoism]

[ Ferris is yet another who has been neglecting her dreamotion abilities, though of late has started to do a bit of poking. She has very little aptitude with magic, so it never really occurred to her to bother until she saw how useful they can be...

Cute and practical though, not just swords? Dango is cute and practical. Perhaps, just maybe... ]

Could you mean something like food?

[topgun_textiles]

It always pissed me off, all those dumb whispers thinking I couldn't hear them. But I think they wanted me to hear and feel bad.

But fuck them! I can like whatever I want! I'll never get why people are so stuck in their ways, but they'll never stop me from doing what I want! I made a bunch of cute puppies just this last week.

[Give him a minute. How'd it go? Focus a thought and put a picture in here...?

Soon an image of a spread of plush puppies appeared on the page in a variety of different breeds. There was a dalmatian, a corgi, a shiba inu, a german shepard, a beagle and a few others.]

[abyssbound]

[He is, actually!]

Have you decided on the time and place?
