No, I can't say that I am, although from what I've heard, there's a cleric who writes a rather famous one under a secret penname somewhere in Montwise. [ fufu. ] I like to read histories and scholarly work, but I'm fond of mysteries, too.
but he smiles back at jolyne after, just all mischief. ] Are you the sort to read romance novels under the table? We do accuse others of things we often do ourselves...
[ smh!!!!!! her ears are like the lightest pink. whatever! as she turns to grab a book she bangs her knee on the table with a wince. bad luck. deserved even! ]
[ rubbing her knee, but shaking her head. she's good she's good. ]
Seeing's believing. I've got a friend back home, his soul is tied to this ability that lets him interact with the ghosts of objects, memories... even an entire room that was burned down years before. it exists as if it'd never been destroyed.
These particular abilities from my home are called Stands.
People will end up awakening abilities inside of them that manifest in all kinds of ways. Sometimes you're born with 'em, sometimes they manifest on their own.
Every Stand has a name—mine is Stone Free. The ability to unravel my body into string. It's got a lot of applications. If you can do it with string, then I can do it with my body.
[ he smiles, something lighting up in recognition. ] 'Unwinding'.
That is... a fascinating sort of ability. I feel as though I've met all sorts of people with all sorts of them, here; the variety compared to home is impressive.
Just magic. There are seven types; my abilities here are not that different than the ones I most commonly utilize, at least in the form of attack magic.
[ he gives a little wave of his hand. everyone saw him use it yesterday, so. ] But we'd just align them to elements, using spells.
