Mundane, I don't share your desire for others to arrive from my 'canon' as you call it.  I've no wish to be disturbed once I begin studying the magic of other worlds.

I am perfectly well enough alone. Remilia is an exception to this, of course.

Zere ist no such zing as magic. Vy does everyvon say such zings?

[stardustreverie]

Now that ya say that, My mun is curious. Maybe I'll join ya there!

[Probably the LAST person you'd want there huh?]

[magicoftheday]

Why do you not believe?

[magicoftheday]

That won't be necessary.

[Oh no. Patchy hasn't even gotten a chance to touch that library yet. Must find it faster.]

[pocketsurgeon]

Vy should I ven it doesn't exist? I believe in science instead.

[magicoftheday]

They are in essence, one in the same. Both are used to determine the root cause of all things.

[pocketsurgeon]

Ja. But science ist quantifiable und magic is merely randomness.

[magicoftheday]

And yet you require machines to manipulate the elements for you. Whereas scholars of magic like myself can control them on our own.

[pocketsurgeon]

But it's not real!

[magicoftheday]

[Patchy mumbles something unintelligible, and raises her hand. Oh look, there's a fireball heading in Medic's general direction.]

[pocketsurgeon]

[He may not think magic is real, but that doesn't stop a fireball being launched at him from being TERRIFYING. Hence he turns and runs. What is pride?]

[magicoftheday]

[Guess who is slightly amused by this?]

[pocketsurgeon]

[Once the fireball has passed he peeks out of his hiding place.]

Don't do zat!

[magicoftheday]

It's no fault of mine that you fear what you don't understand.

[pocketsurgeon]

Nicht true. You shot a ball of fire at me. I haff every reason to run. Und zere ist much I don't understand, but viz science eventually I vill be able to.

[magicoftheday]

So you will inevitably cave in and attempt to study magic.

[pocketsurgeon]

Nein. I am nicht von of zose Alchemist fools. Zere ist no need to study magic viz a firm understanding of science.

[magicoftheday]

Alchemy is a perfect example of science and magic blended into one. So...let's see how your science allows you to understand...

[She begins flipping through pages in the book in her hand. That's probably not a good sign.]

[pocketsurgeon]

It's a fools errand. Turning lead into gold. Tch.

[Oh. Books. He likes those. Time to try and read over her shoulder.]

[magicoftheday]

[She begins mumbling another longer incantation, but before she can finish, she's interrupted by a coughing fit. Well, Patchy won't be casting that spell today.]

[pocketsurgeon]

Vat language ist zis?

[magicoftheday]

[It takes a moment for her to compose herself again.]

One that someone of your nature will never learn to appreciate or understand.

[pocketsurgeon]

Tch. Zat's hardly an answer.

[magicoftheday]

[She goes back to flipping through her book.]

Usually, you have to work for an answer.

[pocketsurgeon]

Zese are spells ja?

[He's still trying to decipher it even though he has no hope.]

[magicoftheday]

[Spellcasting take 2! This time, she uses a shorter incantation, summoning a powerful gust of wind towards the Medic.]

[pocketsurgeon]

[Aaaaaand he falls over. But there's definitely a scientific explanation for this. Yep. Sure is.]

How are you doing zat?
