Stiles is flicking paper footballs at someone's head in homeroom, which is, in his opinion, a productive morning. If he can't learn magic, and he has to deal with cardcaptors and sorcerers and bears...well, he'll make his own fun.

"Interesting. Although, I expect, ultimately not terribly useful when magic's around."

"People probably feel different about it, and we can't very well ask them."

"I'm honestly going to go through all of this thinking it's just precognition because the alternative is kinda scary."

"I'm not sure it's really a moral question. It's not our choice anyway."

"...it kinda was my choice so I sincerely hope I knew what I was doing then."

"Yeah. It's probably fine. And if it's not, we can deal with that after we stop it, I guess. No use worrying."

"Okay. So the problem with the Time card is that it pretty much gets everything once it notices us. We need to get close enough to capture it without it realizing."

"Alistair suggested using a spell that calls on the Shield, which might make us immune to it."

"It worked with the Erase, so it's worth trying on the Time, even if it is more powerful."

"Maybe fooling its senses works? But maybe it just senses magic. Otherwise we could try to distract it."
not_my_card
"Did it actually look at you? And I'm not sure distracting it helps if it's very trigger-happy."
trying_to_catch
"No, you're right. It noticed me, but I don't know if it heard me or just knew..."

"So I invoke the Shield to get us close, and then you do your usual thing?"
trying_to_catch
"The Maze. It warps space, it might get us near the Time card without actually being near it. The Move could close the gap, maybe. I should try seeing if I can move my staff with it, maybe capture from inside the maze? Unless it reacts to the staff, too. The Change could maybe affect its environment, making it vulnerable at the right time."
