[ Howl knew he was a meister-- he had even resonated before-- but he had never thought to ask about his ability before reading a post on the network the day before. even if he wasn't signed up for a mission anytime soon, it was good to know, wasn't it? ]

[poisonwords]

[Speak of the devil - you have the choice between running or dealing with this guy, Howl.]

Hey. Are you here because you want help figuring out your Meister ability?

[sorceries]

[ he doesn't move, simply nods at him. ]

That's exactly why I'm here.

[poisonwords]

Do you have any idea what it could be?

[sorceries]

Nope.

[ he gives a humored shrug. ]

I'm not exactly sure how I'm supposed to figure it out, either.

[poisonwords]

Usually it's something that is related to what you were doing back home, be it skills, abilities or a hobby. Does that help?

[sorceries]

Perhaps. I did magic back in my world-- it was involved with everything I did. I'm not sure how that translates to a meister ability, though.

[poisonwords]

Magic? What kind? [You have his full interest not, Howl. He's from a clam of 'magicians' himself.]

[sorceries]

All kinds. I'm a wizard. [ by now he's realized not all worlds have wizards, so he's not sure how it'll be taken. ]

[poisonwords]

[For a moment he is tempted to fake disbelief or surprise. But then he decides against being childish since this is work and you don't play with what you eat or teach to be more dangerous.]

Really? So am I. My Meister ability is a form of my strongest spells. [Which is the truth. Technically.]

[sorceries]

Are you? [ he actually does sound surprised. ] So maybe you know what I mean about knowing different kinds of magic.

[poisonwords]

My whole family is. [It's an open secret, even if most don't believe in its truth anymore in this day and age.] And I do, which is why I'm asking. With what do you associate your skills the most?

[sorceries]

Is it excepted in your world?

[ he thinks for a moment, before answering: ] Transformation, for myself. Or manipulation of others.

[poisonwords]

Quite the opposite. Nobody believes in things like magic anymore. [At least those who could. He preferred it that way since that meant that they didn't know about the less pleasant sides of the supernatural that lurked out there either.]

Transfiguration or manipulation.. So, it's basically 'change'. [He goes to a small desk to the side and returns with two books. Each have various markers in them and are about various known Meister and Weapon abilities and wavelengths of the soul. He opens the first at the second marker and the second on the fifth before offering both to Howl.] Look through these and tell me if anything in it sounds like something that might come close to those skills.

[sorceries]

Thanks. [ he reaches out and takes the books from him. holding them both open, he places the first book on top of the second so he can scan through them one at a time. ] Is that so? Sometimes people don't believe in magic even when it's happening right in front of them.

[poisonwords]

And sometimes they refuse to believe in it no matter what. [He shrugs.] I don't care about what they think as long as they don't run blindly into any danger.

[sorceries]

Unfortunately. [ he gives a slight shake of his head, still skimming through the books. ]

[poisonwords]

Unfortunately. [He repeats, voice and expression in his eyes growing darker for a moment. Just because he had teased Yura for crying for the lives lost when they had found XX-villages' victims in that hut didn't mean that he had felt nothing about them at all. They might have been clueless idiots, but their untimely deaths had still made him angry.]
