Who: Everyone
When: Day 43, Nighttime
Where: The clearing, now no longer a beach

[ The beach fades away, leaving everyone back in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of the clearing and their-- beloved?-- train. There are some new stars in the sky, twinkling in ginger goldenrod, thyme apple, senna terracotta, jasmine blue, and clover pink.

The sound of a giggle fills the air and leaves behind bubbles-- touching one will give the uncontrollable urge to hug the nearest person. They will persist throughout the night. ]

To make Des's magic go uphill, I need to send something downhill to compensate, or that something is me. We can hold it back for a short time, or build up reserves, but that's about it. And it's only because Des is a very old demon; she has a lot of learned control.

[daydreamshimmer]

But she doesn't need to for sending things downhill?

[learnedfool]

Less so, since she generates the chaos on her own, and downhill magic is mostly helping things that happen on their own.

[daydreamshimmer]

Well, at least there's that. Your chaos is still weirdly rule following for chaos. [It's downright odd.]

So is uphill hard for you because she's around or is that just an always thing?

[learnedfool]

Before she arrived, I couldn't do anything magical. Most humans can't.

[daydreamshimmer]

....how does she make magic move through your body?

[learnedfool]

I don't know. We'll have to work on translating how she sees it into something I can explain in words.

[daydreamshimmer]

....we don't. Necessarily need words?
