 Prompts Arrival: So you've just arrived in Nyoi-Cho. Congratulations! You must be so excited about having your wish granted. Or maybe you're upset that the result wasn't quite what you expected? If that's the case, then that's too bad! There are no take backs and no redoes, so you're stuck with what you have! Maybe you should have been more careful about how you worded that wish... Oh well. There's no use in dwelling on it. You're a magi now, and that means adjusting to a whole new lifestyle! Maybe one of the townspeople can help you out. Only... they're acting a bit strangely, aren't they? They're all too happy to show you around, but there's something unsettling about the way they're behaving. Almost cheerfully dissonant. Any questions about the history of the town are met with blank stares and brief silence, before they plaster a smile onto their faces and change the subject. Any attempts to tell them about your duties as a magi or anything else that relates to the magical will get similar reactions. Isn't there anyone normal here that you can talk to at all? Home Improvement: The houses that the magi are given access to really are something, aren't they? There's almost no limit to what they can do! Why don't you create the house of your dreams, or maybe recreate and relive your favorite childhood scenes? Invite some spectators over to marvel! A Corrupted Soul Gem: You neglected to take care of your soul gem, and now you don't feel quite yourself anymore. You feel like you're losing your sense of self - all you seem to be able to focus on is your old regrets and past failures. What's happening to you? A Successful Mission: Congratulations! You met up with your first Witch, and you fought valiantly. For your efforts, you've been awarded a grief seed - and with it, access to a brand new power! What sort of power did you get? Is it a useful one, or is it not so useful? Maybe you've mastered it beautifully, and now you're showing off to all of your friends. Maybe you're having a hard time keeping it under wraps, and now you're wreaking havoc across the town without meaning to! A Dreadful Nightmare: You had an absolutely horrid day. As you drift off to sleep, your mind dwells on all the injustices you've had to endure. In response, your bed swallows you up, and your room shifts into a horrific Nightmarescape. What sort of Nightmare are you? What kind of Nightmarescape do you create? Hopefully your fellow magi can stop you before you cause too much damage! Wildcard: Feel free to use any information from the FAQ or the World Info page to make your own prompt! |

Hm... [ She taps a finger to her chin, and her eyes flick off to the side for a moment. To be fair, she really could stand to switch it up a little now that busting out of dresses like tissue paper when she releases her humanoid form isn't a pressing concern. ] You say it like that, but a sloppy attack is just as unbecoming if it ceases to be effective. If one looks at it that way, then focusing on appearance is a luxury only the naturally strong can afford, isn't it?
[ Wait, is that a compliment to Nui's talents or an implication that she's not strong? Is she just being anime dialogue levels of vague? Can it be all three? ]

Of course not! Clothing is how you tell the weak from the strong! Or at least it is to someone like me. Not putting care into your appearance is absolutely unforgivable! But... I suppose some faux pas are understandable at the beginning of a new season.
[She flickers her fingers back into claws for a second as she picks up her parasol for emphasis. She's only been fighting this way for a little while, you know!]
no subject
How is that?
[ Her voice lilts with honest curiosity. Taking pride in one's form isn't quite the same thing, as she sees it -- at least not when the form is one like hers is. (Was. Riful's expression sours, if only for a few seconds.) Is there something particular that sets Nui's conception of clothing apart and makes it of interest, or is it just vanity? She genuinely delights in hearing about novel powers and experiences, so long as they might be of use to her later, so she hopes it's not the latter. ]
I would like to understand, you see. After all, the best part of making new friends is learning new things.

As the Grand Couturier of the Revocs Corporation, I think about clothes a lot, and I guess I'm a little biased as someone who makes them. But think about it this way - clothing is what separates people from animals, right? If you're naked, you're basically calling yourself subhuman - so it's the duty of people who are more powerful and know better to make sure their outfits show it! If you aren't taking care of your appearance, you're wasting the potential of your clothes, and you might as well not wear any at all!
[This makes more sense in the world she comes from where clothes are aliens and people literally fight with them, I swear.]
