"You know, I haven't actually been reading any of the labels so I barely noticed that they had them, I was just looking at the food."

Permalink

"Huh, I don't know how I would go about not reading the labels."

"I did see some of them, they just didn't catch my eye. Get me a bowl of fruit salad," she tells a maid-hand. "- I wonder if there is some customary gesture or something to make it sound less like I am ordering people around instead of my nonsapient constructs.'

"Looking in their direction helped this time, I think." 

Permalink

"I should get around to actually sticking them in T-shirts."

Permalink

"--Ooh, yeah, that'd probably help--or you could drape them in embroidered shawls or something else manaful like that--"

Permalink

"Good idea once I have acquired some embroidered shawls!"

Permalink

"--I wonder if I can use metallurgy to embroider things."

Permalink

"Ooooh. Is it that high-precision, my sense of the elementalism is benchmarked on all the stuff about how it operates at big combat scales."

Permalink

"I suspect that depends on skill level! It seems like a good source of sorceress practice, at any rate."

Permalink

"Are you both sorceresses?"

Permalink

"I am; Edie's not." 

Permalink

"I'm an Academic."

Permalink

"I would probably have been an academic if it weren't for the fantastic bribery."

Permalink

"I did not actually get to pick, and I suppose if I missed out on any bribery as fantastic as you got that's a pity, but really, I'm just glad I came out of it as well as I did! I haven't found anything yet that makes me go, 'hm, couldn't be me.'"

"Let me know if there are very cool theoretical underpinnings to read up on."

Permalink

"I will absolutely do so! Probably you need some theoretical underpinnings to invent a whole new discipline."

Permalink

"It does seem like the sort of thing that might help!"

Permalink

"Ooh, hang on--" Emily gets out her phone and starts typing something. "I'm adding people or groups who are known to have invented disciplines in the past to my research list--I know digicasting was developed here at Arcadia but not by whom--"

Permalink

"Yeah, and witchery was invented by our mutual ancestress, but I haven't heard of anything being definitely between the two in age..."

Permalink

"I'm not sure I'd know how to confidently identify someone as being in-between--I mean if they're in the last couple millenia sure but aside from that. But I hadn't heard of anyone else who'd done it at all so that doesn't super matter." 

Permalink

"Well, we don't even know Witch Mom's name, so presumably we don't know much about how she pioneered the field, either, but anything more recent than that like digicasting will presumably be better able to provide references to build on."

Permalink

"Hm. Do we not know? I mean, you and I don't, but..." to the Alphazon search engine. After a few minutes she makes a face. "It would seem we do not." 

Permalink

"I figured if it was known people would call her it. I guess now that I think of it it could have been unpronounceable." Fruit salad appears before her. Nom nom nom.

Permalink

"It wouldn't be that weird to me if people tended to call her by a title instead of a name even if the name were available...anyway, I suppose you'd have a firmer foundation to place expectations on, if the person who awakened you mentioned her."
