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!

[Qrow had been eyeing a conveniently nearby tree, figuring he could maybe climb up and at least knock the grief seed down when Madoka's suddenly on the move.]

Huh?

[He blinks but doesn't get much chance to question her before those glowing wings suddenly sprout from her back and lift her up into the air easily. He's actually about to chide her for using magic she doesn't need to but-- wait, she hadn't actually transformed to do that, did she? Can that even be done...?]

... Hey, how'd you do that?
cyclicalconcept: (what is awesome?)

Assuming she knows his name in this scenario

[Madoka, meanwhile, is cradling the seed as she makes her way down the fire escape.]

Done what, Mr. Branwen?

I was assuming that much myself

[personal profile] drunkle_qrow 2015-12-04 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Mostly the part where you sprouted glowing wings and jumped about ten meters.

[The jump itself isn't all that astonishing by his own world's standards, any first year trainee would have been able to pull it off, but he hadn't been able to do something like that since he got here. Kinda been under the impression that nobody could without transforming first.]

Or did you miss that part?
cyclicalconcept: (this is just awkwardly awesome)

[personal profile] cyclicalconcept 2015-12-05 12:01 am (UTC)(link)
[Actually, she is transformed in her magical girl form. Still! She looks genuinely confused and surprised.]

I did?
drunkle_qrow: (pic#9743131)

Bleh. Where were you on that one, my brain?

[personal profile] drunkle_qrow 2015-12-05 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
[... So she is! Huh. Either Qrow had a few too many drinks for breakfast this morning or one of those knocks to the head was harder than he thought.]

Hn. [Whatever. He shakes his head.] Either way, next time save your magic for when you really need it.
cyclicalconcept: (this is just awkwardly awesome)

[personal profile] cyclicalconcept 2015-12-05 02:52 am (UTC)(link)
Right! Ok!

[Seriously did she grow wings?? She doesn't remember doing it!]
drunkle_qrow: (pic#9743125)

[personal profile] drunkle_qrow 2015-12-05 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
[It's not even the weirdest thing that could happen around here. Probably just some ability or another, not worth dwelling on.]

Anyway, better go ahead and use that thing. Gotta keep the batteries charged.
cyclicalconcept: (so is toast!)

[personal profile] cyclicalconcept 2015-12-05 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
[Nodding, Madoka proceeds to clean her Soul Gem. There's thankfully not much that needs cleaning, so when she's done, she offers the seed to Qrow.]
drunkle_qrow: (pic#9743135)

[personal profile] drunkle_qrow 2015-12-05 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[Taking the grief seed, he uses it to clear out his own Soul Gem. His is noticeably darker to start, although maybe that's partly because the light shining from it is a bit gloomier in general.]

Okay, good as new. [With his Gem back to normal, he reverts to his human form in a flicker of light that somehow manages to look shadowy and gives Madoka a considering look.] Y'know, you're packin' a ton of power and got a lot of potential but your style could use a little work. If you want, I could show you a few moves.
cyclicalconcept: (is it 100 billion hot dogs awesome!?)

[personal profile] cyclicalconcept 2015-12-06 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? You could??

[WOW THAT WOULD BE SO NEAT]
drunkle_qrow: (pic#9743133)

[personal profile] drunkle_qrow 2015-12-06 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, sure. That's what I did back home anyway.

[A shrug and he flips the grief seed toward her again.]

Just to warn you, I can be a tough teacher.
cyclicalconcept: (I think this is awesome)

[personal profile] cyclicalconcept 2015-12-08 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm all right with it. I'm willing to learn!
