oo2 ;; Accidental text ;; Alex likes to draw, m'kay?

[Alex was doing a chalk doodle mostly because of boredom. The drawing just so happened to be of New York above and below as she had drawn what felt like years ago. She didn't know why she wanted to draw it, it just happened to be on her mind. Something from back home. Something that she truly was proud of, after all. She sent it to the network and huffed before sending a message shortly after]

Sorry about that also oh my god this is so cool!

[Except she totally wasn't and it totally was cool. Her first text to the network. In her own handwriting. Oh my god. It was beautiful.]

[Sorry Alex -- Victor doesn't know he's bringing up painful stuff.]

Yes, exactly. My parents tried to make me into someone I'm not, and that didn't work out at all.

Oh -- sorry to hear that. I'm an only child myself, if I haven't mentioned. Still, I often felt like I was being held up against some "ideal" child and constantly being found wanting.

It is, isn't it? Always trying hard to be a good son for them. . . Of course, these days, we're not on the best of terms, so I don't have to worry abut that anymore.

[Wait. Back up a minute there.]

Save the world??

You're a wizard. That's -- well. That's amazing. The only other one I've known was a rather ancient skeleton.

[Literally.]

Do you do any special sort of magic? Or are you what they call a 'jack of all trades?'

Yes, doing whatever you want would fit 'jack of all trades.' Incredible. I've only recently learned of magic's existence, but I find it fascinating.

I assume lots of fiddly little rules to follow and suchlike?

[Not that that bothers him -- he still wishes he could know more. He'd love to be able to do magic of his own.]

I suppose "The Guidelines of Magic" doesn't sound as impressive as "The Rules of Magic" or "The Laws of Magic."

I still think it's interesting, though. Maybe because the first bit of magic I ever really saw was -- well, someone sending me between the barrier of life and death.

. . . I must have skipped that area. I went to the place where everyone was walking corpses and they had more fun than any living person I'd ever known.

I don't know if I'd call it lucky. . .but I did end up enjoying my time down there. Lots of color and fun, and everyone so welcoming. . .

The version you saw sounds a lot more like my hometown, honestly.

Oh yes, a absolute cavalcade of thrills and chills.

[You can probably taste the sarcasm on those words.]

Still better than Whitechapel, though.

Astralfield? Very interesting so far. Both the place and the people.
