Good morning, everyone.

[Guess whose floating illusionary words are showing up on the screen again, academy? Zexion is back, leaning back against what looks like a giant pile of blue feathers- oh, it's just Imogen, who pokes her large, avian head over the boy's shoulder in curiosity. He's clearly in the stables.]

Meanings...

[For a moment, he simply sits and thinks, wondering how to convert that into a way more suited for images than sounds. Perhaps...]

We'll try an exercise. If you can, calm your mind. Try to get into the mindset you use right before you begin a song, that creative feeling. But instead of focusing on any meanings, focus on a color. Something familiar to you, like the color of your hair or the green on leaves.

[Seeing that soft glow has him smile for a moment. Ah, he'd thought she would catch on quickly. This sort of thing is in her blood.]

That is another thing important to the art of illusion: focusing on everyday details and a sharp memory. But for now, simply concentrate on this exercise. At the end of the week, we'll move on. Alright?
