One question.

Why is it harder to fight monsters in video games than in real life?

[It's not, he's just bad at video games.]

[starwill]

And I'm an expert in all things slang. So yes.

[happydreamed]

Aha, I see. I could learn a great deal from you, in that case.

[starwill]

I take lessons at the cheap price of one random trash item.

[happydreamed]

Hmm, I'd feel bad giving out trash. Would tea suffice instead?

[starwill]

I'm a trash raccoon that appreciates trash.

But I will accept tea as well.

[happydreamed]

I appreciate your willingness to compromise.

[you can't just pay people in trash, you at least should pay them in nuts you found off random monsters]

[starwill]

Just name the time and place!

[happydreamed]

In that case, are you busy this Saturday?

[starwill]

I should be.

[happydreamed]

Sunday then? Or perhaps next weekend?

[starwill]

Either works for me!

[happydreamed]

Wonderful.

[He sends the address of a nice teahouse and a time to meet. Tea friend tea friend.]

[starwill]

I'll see you then.

[happydreamed]

If I include pastries with the tea, will you teach me how to make tiny pictures like that?

[starwill]

Of course!

to action

[happydreamed]

Wonderful.

[And on the appointed day at the appointed time, he's at the teahouse, humming cheerfully as he waits for Stelle to arrive.]

[starwill]

[ And Stelle herself looks rather confident when she arrives, but she's not just going to show up normally. Of course not.

Instead, she shows up in style, like a gust of wind (literal) as a whirlwind of cherry blossoms swirl around her before falling onto the ground. ]

Like the winds of spring, the teacher of slang, Trailblazer Stelle, the Galactic Baseballer has arrived on the scene!

[happydreamed]

[What an entrance! He's genuinely impressed and ends up applauding for her.]

Goodness, you certainly do know how to make a first impression.

[starwill]

I've always wanted to do a more exciting introduction.

[ And now she has.

She's satisfied. ]

[happydreamed]

Perhaps I ought to try emulating you. I could do the swirling flowers with spring powers, I think...

[starwill]

That's pretty much what I did, actually.

[ She doesn't have any wind powers naturally, after all. ]

[happydreamed]

Ah, is that so. My natural element is ice, but I don't know exactly how I would incorporate ice into a display like that...

[starwill]

Hmmm... well, you can control the movement of ice in the air with wind, maybe...? And have the air be used to help melt the ice?

[happydreamed]

Perhaps. I could try to make snow, I suppose? I've mostly used ice magic for offensive purposes thus far, not for decorative ones.

[starwill]

Who says that decorative can't also be used in offense?
