18 | Shadow sneak

[ecstaticfear]

... let me know once Valentine's Day stuff is over and done with. It's one of the things I'm not very good at. And it seems some here are interested in me. Why. Time to practice on hiding in my shadows again

...Been meaning to ask you, but what exactly have you been doing as far as practicing with your shadows so far? I've noticed that you seem to severely....suck at it, so you've had me curious over what's going on with that.

[ecstaticfear]

Can't be perfect in everything, sadly.

Creating and controlling, mostly. I know how to hide in shadows, pretty much, but controlling them is really hard for me, for some reason.

...You're control over your shadows is as bad as it is...and you're trying to create your own despite that fact? ...Seriously? Well, no wonder you're having trouble then. You're trying to go for something your skills aren't good enough to handle yet. You'll need to work with a different method for doing things until you've gained enough talent to actually be able to manage shadows that you can create yourself.

[ecstaticfear]

Well I had no idea how to work on them so I tried something... I figured I might have been doing something wrong.

I feel like you would be very good at it.

That would be fine. I'm sure it looks great though. How should I style my hair?

[ecstaticfear]

Valentine's Day or hiding in the shadows for the whole day?

Hmm, I think just a simple style will do for this. Though we can also try different styles once we meet.

[kaminokusaki]

Valentine's.

That would work. Where do you want to meet?

[ecstaticfear]

I don't think so. I wasn't good at it in middle school because of how assertive the girls are on that day... then my powers awakened and I was too scary for them, fortunately.

Would your cabin work?

Generally Valentines ends on the 15th.

[ecstaticfear]

Generally, but sometimes not. Sometimes it even starts before the 14th.

[spawnofpluto]

I'm of the belief that Valentine's started at the beginning of this month if not earlier. People are in "planning for love and affection" mode starting then, so the annoying behavior has already begun before the official day has even gotten to us.

[revolutionbegun]

.......That's disgusting. It's not "the month of Valentines", it's February. It better end on the 15th or I'm ruining the mood myself.

[inappropuri]

I'm planning on having a post-valentines day hoohah on the 15th. To go raid for left over bargain chocolate and indulge. What are your thoughts on the subject?

[ecstaticfear]

That sounds fun. Want some company?

[zenzaitensai]

What's there to be good at? Reap the rewards of discount chocolate afterward.

[ecstaticfear]

Getting surrounded by girls.

[zenzaitensai]

Tell them that you're in sweet, passionate love with someone back home and she'll get too jealous if you accept their chocolate.

[ecstaticfear]

Would that actually work?
