[the thing about it is, the change of heart is a little too sudden. so he looks at her for a moment before he kind of looks away instead toward the other christmas boxes and begins packing up his own stuff.]
...don't worry about it, Luxanna. I'm sure you'll do whatever you think works best and it'll turn out.
[she doesn't have to humor him, basically. so it's fine.]
I think that's probably because you're so used to your own world. [a light grin.] People who aren't used to yours would probably say the same thing. When the digimon first came to earth, there was so much they didn't know and wanted to learn but it was all the mundane stuff for us. Ever since then I guess I've tried to think about what it would be like for someone else.
It wasn't like we chose to go to the digital world ourselves the first time. Your magic is something you can do yourself without anything or anybody else.
[ it's not MY FAULT?????? but she is happier to talk about that! ]
Well! I can create light, but I can also manipulate its refractions to create illusions. What we see is all thanks to light, after all! Or I can use the light to create shields, snares, lasers, and other offensive abilities!
That's really cool. [like?? yes?? he pauses, debating if he wants to continue and then deciding maybe lux won't mind.] ...all of us have certain things we embody that help our partners evolve. Hikari's is light, so her partner uses a lot of light attacks in her Perfect form.
[ oh! she looks excited to be hearing about this! she's interested in how magic works for other people, but also in learning about her dorm mates. ]
That's interesting. So it's... Something that you - she - embody, but it doesn't manifest for yourself? [ like you're just a source for someone else? ]

Yes, you're probably right. It's just something I'll have to work on, I suppose!

I appreciate the thought. Hopefully this time, that will be true.

[if only because he maybe understands a few things now.]

Of course. I'm sorry to have... Taken over the conversation.

[he could have just not questioned what he saw.]

I'm far more interested in getting to know everyone else better than I am in talking so much about myself.

I suppose I never really thought about it?

I used to burst into a glow without meaning to, as a child.
no subject
That would've been a huge surprise to anyone, I bet. How'd you learn to control it?
no subject
... Sylas taught me how.

...I see. [hm. time to change the subject.] And then you got stronger. What all can your magic do?
