Eighth Summoning [Voice] || Sometimes I'm nervous when I talk
-right.
[There's a small pause, and Nathaniel takes a deep breath, before starting to speak.]
As you all know, there is a festivity of sorts, held on Friday. For preparation, I am willing to teach a class on the basics of dance Thursday evening. Though I am not a certified instructor in the matter, I have attended several galas which required such... things, and I have had instruction on- dance. [God, it sounds so girly when he says it like that. But with friends like Makepeace, he knows the basics, which is far more than you barbaric lot.]
I will also be attending the prom of sorts if anyone wishes to speak to me face to face- on any matter. Thank you.
[Private to Hino Rei || Unhackable]
[There's a long pause, as if he's not sure if he really wants to say this- but he goes with it anyway, taking a deep breath.]
...I have located another spirit that I believe to be residing in Adstringendum. Something a bit more powerful than Faisal. If... if you like, [a deep breath] you can watch the summoning.
[He lets out a soft sound, like he's nervous, maybe.] Um- not that I think it would be particularly entertaining, but you seemed... curious about that sort of thing. It would be easier than trying to explain everything.

[Shifting a few books under his arm and motioning for her to follow him out of the room.]
There are always magicians in my world. They are always researching new ways to use their magic, new ways to advance it. It's an art that will never be outdated. So someone puts a lot of effort into a punishment spell- it's just another brand of magic, and another way we try to progress and advance our knowledge base as a whole.

[And she gets up to follow him quickly, musing as she goes.]
Just building a spell instead of a nuclear bomb.

[Yes, exactly like that. Because that's exactly what people in his world did- magic over technological advancements. For all that he was from the same time as a majority of the people here, his world was a hundred years in the past with technology.]

It's -- a really big bomb. The Americans used them in World War II, on Hiroshima and Nagaski, in Japan.
[Rei shrugs a shoulder lightly.]
It destroyed both cities and killed thousands of people.

No matter what world, Americans don't change.
