♣ 29

[Kutner is sitting on the roof, practicing his spells. He's got his spell book open to one side, the journal open to the other, and this is mostly requiring a lot of time and focus.

Feel free to bother]

[And this is Dragonlance day.]

His kind of world, lol - Actiony

[wishmadeinfire]

[He'd just been coming up for some air, and spied ... Kutner? Yes, that was the doctor he had met that one time before, collapsed in the lobby.

Curious, he comes over, cocking his head.]

I did not know you could use spells, Kutner.

[prodefibrillist]

[glances back and shrugs]

I'm not great at it, so I usually don't advertise.

[wishmadeinfire]

It's just strange. You didn't seem like the sort to have magic in your world at all, the way you talked....

What spell are you working on?

[prodefibrillist]

[flips through the pages and points]

Not much, but I need the practice.

[he's confused at the first part, though, because that didn't make any sense]

[wishmadeinfire]

Practice makes perfect. What are you having trouble with?

[prodefibrillist]

[scratches the back of his neck a bit]

That's the problem -- I'm not sure.

[wishmadeinfire]

[Ashura took a seat beside him]

Why don't you try one? I may not use words for my spells, but perhaps I can give you pointers for certain things. I have seen that much of the basics are essentially the same between the magics of the worlds.

[prodefibrillist]

[nods]

Okay.

[and goes to start doing the spell again]

[wishmadeinfire]

[He watches the other, watching how he breathed, how he moved, the way he recited words. He, personally, did not need words for his magic, but he did need good breathing and excellent motion, else he loose control.]

[prodefibrillist]

[he finished as it fizzled out again, looking a little frustrated]

[wishmadeinfire]

Adjust your breathing. Breathing is an intricate part of concentration, believe it or not. Keep your breaths slow and deep.

[prodefibrillist]

[nods]

I'll try that. Thank you.

[wishmadeinfire]

I would offer more advice, but beyond that I do not really understand how the spells work. I thought they might have more in common in the way they worked, but it seems my hopes were in vain.

[prodefibrillist]

I'm sorry. But thank you for that help.

[wishmadeinfire]

I am glad I could offer something.

[He touched Kutner's shoulder and then rose.]

I will leave you to practice then. Good luck.

[prodefibrillist]

[nods as he lets him go, before turning back to his spell book]
