[OPEN] Trials and tribulations / I've had my share
Who: Kairi and YOU!
When: March 24th 2017 - April 21st 2017 (January 18th 2019 - March 14th 2019)
Where: Leo's Temple, near the Meeting Hall, the Library, or anywhere else in the Far Shore
What: Training, of the Shinki Spell variety
---
Option A: Training - Leo's Temple, near the Meeting Hall, etc.
[ No matter what day it is, Kairi and her fellow Shinki friends inevitably end up talking about spells. She's kind in her offers to talk about Spellwork after finally being confident in her mastery of several of them, but she always comes back to the same thing...
It's one thing to talk about it, it's another thing entirely to make the spell happen. It requires practice. It requires a real stare-down of one shinki against another, trying to overcome each other's willpower. And Kairi, well...
She's pretty sure that around the time she felt confident enough to explain spells to someone she didn't know that well was around the time that her will to defend against another shinki's spell started to increase too. Now she has another reason to keep up her training - with Hajime gone, she's at her 3rd god, and she doesn't want to lose another. Some of that she knows she doesn't have control over, but the times when she does? Fighting ayakashi? That's when she doesn't want to let Leo down - or by extension, Forrest.
So she'll go wherever her training partner wants to in order to practice today. ]
Option B: Research in a New Age - Leo's Temple, the Library, Hakkai's School, etc
[ The funny thing about knowing so many spells herself was that Kairi started to become even more curious about what other spells were out there. She couldn't contact Kazuma or Yukine anymore, nor Lavi or Izuku, so she resorts to going to the Library to look through the books on her own.
Maybe she'll find a new spell, or maybe she'll find more about the... theory behind spells, for lack of a better word. Kairi knew enough about the magic of her own world now to know that some things were predictable, or advancements of other spells and not really new spells at all. So what kind of "theory" made the Shinki spells work? And could she crack it enough to stop needing to learn individual spell names - especially with her old tutors all gone? ]
Option C: Wild(card) Magic!
[ If it's anything related to spells or magic from your canon's world, that would be cool to talk about! If it's anything else you can think of related to Shinki spells and magic in the Far Shore, that's cool too! ]

OOC: Plot with me at
no prob
Wow! You know so many spells now, D2! We know almost all of the same ones.
[ She presses her fingers together in excitement - an absent Naminé gesture, actually. ]
Have you heard anything about songs? As in - another type of spell, harder to cast? There's that and one other thing I'm thinking about.
no subject
Have you ever heard me sing? I'm trying to learn one of those songs but I still don't really, have it down because I really am terrible at it. Normally that's not an issue, I'll sing anyway, but when you actually need to hold a note...
[ And being competent is important to him. He determines his value after how useful he is. ]
no subject
[ Kairi gets contemplative. ]
Well, there's quite a number of people here who like to sing, and even formed groups to perform together... maybe one of them would be willing to teach classes for shinki who are struggling, like you are...? Or one-on-one mentorship too.
[ Since Kairi's sure that she could get plenty better at singing, even if her natural ability appears to be just a little higher than D2's. ]
no subject
[ Why did some of the spells have to be songs? He isn't bothered by being unable to sing but he's bothered by not being able to do something that's useful. That makes him useful. Because what is he if he's not useful? ]
Yeah- yeah that might be an idea. That might help.
[ But what if it doesn't? ]
no subject
I guess it doesn't matter for Ginia, at least... when casting regular spells. I don't know if it would be possible for her to do these kinds of song spells, but... she's overcome it already with the regular spells. I wonder how that would even work for her, and if it's something that you could learn too?
