Greetings From Maka!

[The video switches on, and Maka comes into view, giving a friendly smile to the screen. She adjusts the camera a bit, as if trying to balance it, and then it grows steady again.]

That's better... Ah. Welcome to all the new people here in Death City! My name is Maka Albarn, and I'm a student and Meister here from Shibusen. I know this must be a

You can see souls?

That's so amazing!

[fearless_tech]

Eh, you really think so?

Ah -- thanks, I guess.

[aliensbestbuddy]

Yup! I've never met an actual person who could see souls! I'm a little jealous now, actually. What do they look like?

[fearless_tech]

Jealous -- [Okay, she can't help but grin. Just a little!]

-- well, everyone's soul is a little bit different. Mostly they look round... like an orb, you could say. The color and general feel depends on the person themselves.

[She could talk about this all day! Especially as someone so interested.]

[aliensbestbuddy]

So like orbs...

'General feel?' Can you touch them as well? Do you see them just floating around the person or on them?

[fearless_tech]

Sometimes you can. Not normally, but it's easier to feel the soul of your partner when you're resonating. And I suppose you could say it's on them - or more like inside them. The soul is a part of that person, after all.

[Pauses.] I could tell you what yours looks like, if you want?

[aliensbestbuddy]

Really?! You would? That'd be so cool!

[fearless_tech]

[Wow, so enthusiastic!]

Yeah! All you have to do is turn on the video.

[aliensbestbuddy]

[Soul-seeing is a super cool thing, dude. Anyway, video on!]

Got it!

[Usually Maka just tells the person whether they're a Meister or a Weapon, but she doesn't mind going into a little more detail for this kid, since he seems so interested.]

Well, first of all, it looks like you're a Weapon... your soul's a very light blue color, too.

[aliensbestbuddy]

[He sort of frowns at the mention of being a Weapon.]

... Oh.

Light blue? I guess that fits!

[Video]

[fearless_tech]

Something wrong?

Mm, I would think so.

[Video]

[aliensbestbuddy]

Um, I didn't really want to be a Weapon.

Can you see your own soul?

[Video]

[fearless_tech]

I see. It's not all that bad, though. The role of the Weapon is very important in a partnership.

I've seen it a couple times, but I don't exactly look at it all that often.

[Video]

[aliensbestbuddy]

Ah... thanks.

What color is yours?

[Video]

[fearless_tech]

Of course! A Meister couldn't do much without their Weapon, after all.

It's kind of orange.
