A question
[Yes, it is rather easy to send one of these out when you have the internet back home. Connie was a little vexed that there was no network quite like that here, but she'd make do].
Ok, I know that most of the people here have a lot of questions about how things work and how to fight and all, and so far there have been plenty of you who have graciously given us answers and time (I'm very grateful to specific people here like Mr. Crackshell and Webigail and Princess Deetz, but many of you really helped, thank you). I have a different type of question though.
For those of you who live here and work, how easy is it to do all of your magical studies and keep a stable job? Back home I have to be attending college, but I'll be living on campus. That's different from working here and living AND learning about magic.
Basically, how do you budget your time? Any tips?

[Some red crept into his hair.]
Not pleasant.
All valid questions, and you won’t be just sitting back studying, kid, there’s missions to do. Hands on experience.
Re: (Video) & lock
[She was really going to have to ask him about the hair].
No, I figured. And step one, which people keep telling me to put off? I have to get a weapon.
Re: (Video) & lock
They’ll give you one when you get trained.
Re: (Video) & lock
I don't want to get rusty. It's been awhile since I sliced a car in half.
Re: (Video) & lock
Eh, killing is like riding a bike. You’ll be fine.
I'm going to assume it's warrior even though they put me as hero for some reason
That's just it. Back home I was REALLY concentrated on my book studies, and we hadn't had to have a real intense fight since that one rogue gem came and tried to blow up my town.
Makes sense
Until then, get creative! Broken bottles, kitchen knives, find something with a little range to it. There are so many things you can do—-
I’m a demon so that stuff isn’t hard. It’s the whole losing my real powers and having to use their bargain basement powers instead. Drawbacks. Ugh.
Re: Makes sense
I guess I can do that, although I'm not exactly a thug. I should probably just wait until I have my weapon.
That does sound upsetting. So what can you do with the magic they granted you here?

[Jazz hands.]
At least, that’s the most common one I’ve encountered.

You mean to tell me when you use magic afterward you get depressed?!

Also, demons get depressed? I did not know that was a thing that could happen.
no subject
And—well, sure? I mean, feelings are a thing!
[He pouted a little, purple creeping into his hair.]
no subject
Sorry! There's still a lot about, well, lots of different people I don't know about.
no subject
[Slightly mollified, green crept back, overtaking the purple.]
Ah, s’alright. I’m weird even among demons.
no subject
And I really hope it works out better for you.
[Connie had a feeling she would have to be practicing a LOT to perfect this kind of thing].
There are other demons here, right?
