[She's been laying low for the last week or so after all the adventure with the riots. Things have not apparently been any calmer this week -- she'd gone out today in the midst of everything and tried to help a few injured people, but she suspected she'd missed quite a bit ( Read more... )

Is that some type of new French cuisine? Chocolate frogs?

Video andromynous August 13 2011, 05:14:52 UTC

Oh, no -- they're treats from where I lived before here.

I'm sure you'd like them. They're really just made of chocolate with a simple sort of mechanism to make them hop once you open the box. They come with trading cards too, if you're into that sort of thing.

Video xuffasch August 13 2011, 05:22:32 UTC

How are you expected to eat them if they're hopping? ...cards of what?

( he purses his lips, as if ashamed of being so curious. )

I don't have much interest in sweets.

They have one really good jump in them, and then you can pretty much catch them to devour them.

It's a gimmick mostly, but the chocolate's pretty good. The cards are of famous wizards and witches.

[She shakes her head, laughing quietly.]

I'd say they're mostly for children, but I know plenty of adults who enjoy them.

Wizards and witches?

( he sort of rolls his eyes at that. )

Is this fake magic or real magic?

Video andromynous August 13 2011, 05:44:45 UTC

Oh, very real.

[She chuckles again.]

And it can be very nasty, too, on a not-so-cheerful note.

Video xuffasch August 13 2011, 06:02:21 UTC

...so are you magic, then?

( he finds this idea unsettling but isn't sure why. )

Video andromynous August 13 2011, 06:06:11 UTC

You could say that.

[She draws her wand out and shoots some fireworks out of the end of it in front of the screen.]

It's not so strange where I'm from. It just isn't something I'd mention to people immediately on the streets.

It's not so remarkable. No more than the other abilities people here acquire.

Video andromynous August 13 2011, 06:12:33 UTC

I suppose that's true - the difference is that I had my abilities before this.

Do you have your own ability as well?

Video xuffasch August 13 2011, 06:14:43 UTC

That's not so different, either. I would say a near-majority of imPorts arrive with some sort of preternatural ability already.

...everyone does, once here.

Video andromynous August 13 2011, 06:17:05 UTC

The ones who arrive here, you're right.

Did you have an ability before arriving here, then?

Video xuffasch August 13 2011, 06:56:56 UTC

As a matter of fact, I did not. I am normal.

( spoilers: he's not. )

Video andromynous August 13 2011, 06:57:50 UTC

[Andromeda snorts.]

I don't know any people who are completely normal. And you've got powers here, don't you?

Although I suppose that's the norm for the IMports.

Video xuffasch August 13 2011, 06:59:50 UTC

It's not even a proper power, just an annoyance.

Video andromynous August 13 2011, 07:00:38 UTC

I'm sure there must be some use for it.

Can I ask what it is?
