hey forums! my name's prompto argentum, i'm another one of the new guys. if you're one of the people who helped me last week i wanted to thank you all and let you know i'm fine now!! (*´╰╯`๓)♬ i've been staying with my friends in bluo and so it took me a while to go look for my laptop in flavo.

anyway i'm sorta curious about something. do a lot of people here come from worlds where magic is really commonplace? like, magic's deffs a thing where i come from but not a lot of PEOPLE have it, you know what i mean? it's in the environment and of course the astrals are magic and some wildlife and monsters have it but it's restricted to only a couple important bloodlines in humans, them and the people they share it with.

you don't have to answer if it's personal and you're like a magical vigilante with a double life or something, i just sort of wanted a sense of where everybody's at since it's so weird to me to see so many people talking about or using magic powers so casually. not bad weird!! just weird.

here's hoping it doesn't rain today! fingers crossed!! x꒰✩˙˟˙✩꒱x

i don't see any button to press to make those emoticons. are you ... typing them out manually? [ this is high-tier dedication. josuke doesn't actually have anything useful to add, though. whoops. ]

sorry, as far as i know magic ain't a thing in my world, unless you're talking the 'smoke and mirrors' variety. can't really help you on that.

really? no magic at all??? how does that work???????

[nipzips]

[ prompto... ]

that's a surprise to you? i would think having magic would be the surprise.

[photoshooter]

no way! just bc people don't have it doesn't mean it's not there. it's EVERYWHERE honestly especially in insomnia since that's where the king lives.

there's no magic at ALL where you're from? not even at like, elemental sites?

[nipzips]

in insomnia? that's really the name of a place? [ the land where nobody can get any decent sleep??? ]

uhh, not that i know of. if you're talking bizarre phenomenons though, we do have Stands.

[photoshooter]

insomnia's the name of my hometown. it's the capital of lucis. which is a country.

what's a stand?? like a music stand??? (´･_･`)?

[nipzips]

what a thing to name a town. do the people get enough sleep?
[ it's a joke but also, do they ]

no, man. you kinda gotta see it to understand what i'm saying. people who don't have them might call them magic.

[photoshooter]

hardy har. i've never heard that one before. (；¬д¬)

what do these stands do? what makes them not magic if people would think they're magical???

[nipzips]

[ he'll be here all night!!! ]

too many things, man. what a Stand can do honestly depends on who's the user, since Stands are a manifestation of a person's spirit or something confusing like that.

mine's mostly able to fix things.

[photoshooter]

oh whoa that sounds really cool actually??? so everyone gets their own kind?? how does it work???

[nipzips]

kinda like a ghost? mine phases outta me when i need him. he's been around since i was 4 years old.

[photoshooter]

whoa!! weren't you scared??? i would've been scared if a ghost came out of me when i was that little!!!! ━(◯Δ◯∥)━ン

[nipzips]

dude, that emote's looking way too dramatic there. its eyes are gonna pop outta its head [ let him laugh at dumb kaimojis. ]

i wouldn't say i was scared but i did get sick. Stands are a lot to handle if your will ain't strong. i'm thankful i didn't die then.

anyway, i got an awesome Stand outta it all. i'm able to fix almost anything!

[photoshooter]

that is pretty awesome! does it work on people too? i mean can you heal???

[nipzips]

yeah, man. if you ever get a cut or scrape, or lose your freakin' arm, feel free to look for me. my name's josuke.

[photoshooter]

you can reattach someone's whole ARM????!?!?

(also my name's prompto!! oh wait i said that already in the original post oops!)

[nipzips]

[ If he told Prompto he once put someone back together after they exploded, would that count as bragging? Hmm. ]

i've done it a few times ... oh, it's better if the injury is fresh. i've never actually reattached a rotted arm and i don't know what would happen.

nice to meet you though! you've got quite a weird name.

[photoshooter]

my name isn't weird!! ( >д<) it's a normal name!!!

[nipzips]

it's pretty weird, man ...

so magic's all over the place where you come from, huh?

[photoshooter]

yeah literally. it comes up out of the ground in some places but it's kind of useless to anyone but the people who can, like, use it.

[nipzips]

wait, comes outta the ground? like some weird geyser? i wouldn't wanna get caught in one of those.

[photoshooter]

no more like ummmm. you know the way sap comes out of trees? so imagine that but up out of the ground and made out of ice or fire or lightning. kind of like a crystal growth but charged up with an element!

[nipzips]

still not following here ... so fire or ice can just burst out of the ground? wouldn't wanna get caught in that either.

[photoshooter]

i've never seen it burst except in really dire situations involving the gods themselves dude!! they're just kind of sticking out there usually. most of the time they're close to havens though so maybe the magic there has something to do with it?
