[In the early afternoon on the 18th, the journals are graced with the voice of a witch who’s had something on her mind for a little while. She sounds more than a little jittery; chalk it up to her not wanting to screw up again.]

H-hey, Luceti. Oh! Welcome, and good luck, to all of you New Feathers…my name’s Willow.

Uh, for those of you who’ve been here a while, and know more than I do… [How to put this? Her words are laced with a frustrating amount of shyness and uncertainty.]

So, lately I’ve been trying to learn from the filial spirits here in Luceti, a-and…it’s going good! It really is. But um…I was wondering. Is there any sort of…. I mean, I’ve contacted Nala already, and like I said….no complaints here! Everything’s fine, just…

…Who should I pick next? [There, she said it. And it sounded horribly direct and rude and ugh…] I mean, i-is there any sort of….order I should be going in? Least to most difficult, or…friendliest to…like on a scale of one to…ten… [Aaaand she trails off awkwardly.]

I was just…curious. [And also super anxious.] Thanks in advance.

[And then she manages to perk up for just a moment, as she remembers an addendum:] Oh! And if anyone’s interested, Yuri’s organized a volleyball tournament that’s going to be happening soon. So spectators and participants alike would be very awesome.

[For more face-to-face interactions, Willow's going to be out and about today. After her morning routine at House Seven she could be spotted at Seventh Heaven and the library throughout the afternoon, followed by Good Spirits in the evening. Or just walking from point A to point B, whichever.]

Oh, yeah. In theory! I know others whose worlds have no magic at all, but they can still do it here.

[Ohohoho, mister!]

I see...have a friend who's interested?

Yes. A friend. [THAT IS HIS STORY, AND HE'S STICKING TO IT.] I volunteered to find out a bit about it. You know--public service and all that jazz, I try to help out where I can.

[Ahem.]

Well, of course. You've now done your good deed for the day, Mr. Stark!

Anything else your friend would like to know?

Hm--let me think. They'd probably want to know which type of magic to start with. That sounds logical.

Sure! And that sort of...puts your friend in the same boat as me. At least when it comes to the Luceti brand of magic.

Like I said, I started with Nala, for healing. She's pretty patient, and receptive. I think...well, if you can't get anywhere with her, you probably couldn't with any of the others. That's the popular opinion, at least.

Uhuh. [Well that's encouraging. At least he hasn't tried it yet--or, um, his friend.] I'll be sure to tell them that. And the choice way of communicating with said spirit? Any magic words?

Not exactly. You don't really speak, but...

Well, have yo--has your friend ever meditated? At least in my case, I first reached her that way. If you go somewhere without any distractions, and focus on your wanting to learn from her, that might be a good start.

[Oh goody. Meditation is so not his thing.]

That's it? You just--sit there. And think about learning. And it's supposed to happen.

[...Really.]

[She chuckles weakly.] That's how it worked for me, yeah, but...well, I have prior experience, and then some.

That's Nala, though. She's one of the more approachable ones, I guess. So maybe...whatever you think would work to reach her...would? A-and if you wanted to learn water magic, word is you can find Sona easier around bodies of water. Etcetera. [She doesn't even realize that she's not referring to "a friend" anymore, oops.]

[WELL HE DOES and he must correct her. Because certainly it isn't him wanting to know about all this magic junk, nope.]

You mean, my friend. Whatever they think will reach these magic spirits. Just, you know. Making that clear.

Right! Yep, that's...what I meant. Silly me.

Anything else you'd like to pass along?

...I think that'll do it. You've been of much help, Willie.

Glad I could help! Best of luck to your friend.
