[There's no telling how on earth did the communicator end up on the floor, but here you have it, recording a very blurry image of Umi trying to get the wild flood that's the fountain back to normal with her magic.]

...What's with this thing?? Why is all this water acting crazy?! THIS ISN'T HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BEHAVE!

You look like you're having fun.

I AM!

That's...

...what's funny...

[soulofocean]

...I don't know. I was feeling pretty aggravated about how this place is making water act like this just now, but...

Suddenly I just feel like having fun with it.

[moresake]

This seems like a fairly harmless curse at least.

Well, I doubt that anyone could best you in a waterfight if you were really trying.

[soulofocean]

They'd have a tough time keeping up, for sure! But...

Do you think this is all what this curse is about? Getting us all into a water fight??

[moresake]

Perhaps the deities have heard my our complaints about the heat, and decided to solve the problem in their unique way.

[soulofocean]

In that case... I know I should be worried about how the water in this place is acting like it's OUT TO GET EVERYONE...

2/2

[soulofocean]

...But nothing wrong with a little splash to help us deal with the heat. This place has a point there.

[moresake]

Well, no one appears to actually be drowning, so I'd say carry on.

[soulofocean]

I'm not taking things that far. But if anyone is up for a REAL water fight I'm not going to hold back either. It's a good excuse to exercise my magic too.

[moresake]

Perhaps you'll run across another person with a similar affinity for water? That would be a battle I'd like to see.

[soulofocean]

That'd be great. But so far I think the only other water mage in the City is Miss Megumi. And I wouldn't fight her. Looks like she'll be taking me in as her apprentice.

[moresake]

Megumi... Ah, that was the woman who checked you over when you were having your memory loss, correct? Good luck with that.

[soulofocean]

That's her. And thanks! I'm... kinda nervous about it. Healing isn't exactly my thing. But this is the chance to see if it's possible for us to learn new spells even here.

[moresake]

I don't see why it would be impossible. People grow and change, and their abilities should be able to, as well.

[soulofocean]

That's how it worked in Cephiro. But there it was always clear that our magic depended on our will.

I'm just not sure how similar things are in this place...
