[Boys Cabin 7, but not locked!]

[blackandwhiteox]

[today, Boys Cabin 7 has woken up to a banner over its door that says "~Welcome to the Sohma embassy~", a line of knee-high bushes (which are, surprisingly, NOT mistletoe), leading to the bunks occupied by Tohru and the Sohmas, a flag with animals, rainbows, hearts and balloons hung on the wall, and pamphlets. lots of them. in neat piles all over

...odd.

Hello, Francescu-san.

[fingeroflife]

Well met, Hisoka. If you are free...?

[esp_not_pms]

Ah, now is fine.

[fingeroflife]

Excellent. We will need a more open location for this lesson, I think, in case of accident; a short distance from the cabin should do.

[esp_not_pms]

...all right.

[going?]

[fingeroflife]

*going indeed. And stopping a safe distance away from the cabin. A significant safe distance*

Until now, you have been simply creating patterns, or disrupting existing ones. Today I will begin to teach you how to manipulate the structure of existing or created patterns for your own purposes. Mistakes at this level can be dangerous; hence our relative isolation.

[esp_not_pms]

[oh like that isn't ominous at all]

...ah.

[fingeroflife]

*it was kinda supposed to be*

Do not worry overmuch; we will begin simply, and I can stop anything which becomes too out of hand. A certain degree of caution will serve you well to begin with, however.

[esp_not_pms]

[...thanks :/]

...aah. Understood.

[fingeroflife]

*pulls a candle out of the air. and a small table appears between them; Francescu sets the candle on the table and lights it with a thought*

Watch closely; I will set your truesight in place. *carves the signs before your face and waits for you to adjust

[esp_not_pms]

[that is still SO weird for the first few seconds. He adjusts faster than before though]

[fingeroflife]

*goodgood. Will probably eventually teach it to you*

Observe the flame closely; note how it interacts with the candle.

*and as you look closer, you can see it clearly; how the flame applies heat to the patterns it touches, disrupting them in visible ways and drawing the fragments into itself, converting them to energy and radiating them as heat in an endless cycle*

[esp_not_pms]

[hey, that's kinda cool]

[kagekachou]

*he'd been out collecting errant Sohma pamphlets, which had been blown out the cabin window, when his attention was caught. he approaches them, but remains at a respectful distance while Francescu does his stuff.*

[fingeroflife]

*glances up from the now-unlit candle*

Well-met, Tatsumi. You are welcome to observe, of course.
