Un! RPG magic! Some of the spells my character in Monster World had at that! [[so very very pleased.]] 2 and 3 are the shield and 4 and 5 are Healing, and I know 6 and 7 do something but I'm still not sure what it is... and 8 and 9 are fumbles for no action.

[vintage_magic]

[And there was some confused blinking. One of the side effects of a childhood without friends was not getting to play games.] RPG? Monster World? I don't follow.

[At least, the healing and shield sounded useful.] And you've never rolled the 6 or 7?

[shiromadoushi]

Aaa-- I have! Quite a few times! I just can't figure out what it does...

And an RPG is a Roll Playing Game! Monster World's my favorite one, only I don't think it exists here...

[vintage_magic]

Oh. [She still had little idea of how such a thing worked but presumably these games used these strange dice.]

But if the 6 and 7 never did anything obvious, couldn't those numbers just not do anything, like the 8 and 9?

[shiromadoushi]

No, I'm pretty sure it does something... it feels like something's built up when I roll it, but I can't figure out what to do with whatever's cast then and it fades away. Almost like I'm doing something wrong with it....

[vintage_magic]

Huh. But if you say the other things you can do are like the magic from that Monster World game, wouldn't it make sense to be something else from there? [Or were there just too many possible spells to guess?]

[shiromadoushi]

Un... but there's a ton of different things my character can do! Especially since I was level 13...

It might just be something that has a lot of variables to it, like a buff or something! Since some of those you can use to either increase or decrease an attribute, depending on how you aim it and what attribute you're choosing...

[vintage_magic]

Level 13? Is that supposed to be good? [There seemed to be a lot of 13s in her last case. Or rather the case she was working on before BREW dragged her back here again.]

Attribute? Increase? Decrease? [From her tone, it's clear that Bakura lost her somewhere. She's probably not going to be the person to help him figure out what that mystery spell does.]

[shiromadoushi]

Un! Even Zork was only level 15! And he was the boss of the game!

[[and now the sheepish look]] Aaaa, sorry! An attribute like strength or defense or something like that. In the game, a buff can change that, either to raise it for an ally or lower it for an enemy.

[vintage_magic]

The boss? So, this Zork person ran the game? [Someone wasn't familiar with the RPG meaning of the word...]

Okay, I think I understand a bit better... [Lily wasn't sure if she completely got it though.]

[shiromadoushi]

Aaa-- the boss in an RPG is the one you're fighting against! The one who's causing everything to happen! ...so I guess it could be like the DM too...

[vintage_magic]

So, the boss is the enemy? [That seemed a strange thing to call the opponent. She hoped her employees didn't think of her that way!] Um, what's the DM...? [And it's pretty clear that Lily is completely clueless about this RPG thing.]

[shiromadoushi]

The Dark Master! Or the Dungeon Master, depending what system you're playing.

[vintage_magic]

This sounds awfully complicated for a game... [Would she need to know all of this if she were going to attempt to use Bakura's Weapon form?]

[shiromadoushi]

It sounds more complicated than it is, it's really not that bad! Most of the time the DM keeps track of all the complicated bits anyway~

And I guess it might be good to wrap this up here?

[vintage_magic]

Okay... [She supposed she would take his word for it.]

I guess I'll let you finish your breakfast and we can see about trying to work together a bit later.

[shiromadoushi]

Sounds good! I'll catch up with you later, then!
