video 🧙 npc: Merlin
Good day, Otherworlders. Merlin here and I decided to do an AMA because I'm currently stuck indoors, sick with this magical flu. You don't want me to go around sneezing on people, so I have to stay at home.
[He looks amused.]
... though you should have seen the donkey ears I accidentally and temporarily grew on Arthur!
[But anyway, onto the actual business, right?]
So, all questions are fair game, but I reserve the right to not answer if I feel like it. Ask me what has been burning in your mind.
Oh and happy anniversary to those who arrived around a year ago!
[ OOC NOTE: Merlin will reply to new top-level comments posted before the November 15th in order to maintain feasibility for mod replies. Threads posted 11 / 16 or later will not be responded to. Any threads started before that time may be continued after that, but may be cut short due to this being an AMA-style post. Unlike Arthur last month, Merlin is more likely to answer to troll-y posts with trolls of his own, but those may be even more short-lived. ]

Then take videos anytime when you see him or anyone else to catch all of those moments into it??
[Listen, there would be so many instagram likes to all of those videos / pictures / anything.]
If they're listening, I say bring it on by coming to try that! [It would be easy if it was just Rin sleeping in a room alone but she doesn't sleep alone...] But if you're not giving me more magic types, then at least give me more to do with my current ones.
[Not that's bored with them, but... She wants more, not that anyone's probably surprised by that. Even if she may have not mastered this world's Elemental yet, who knows, she's doing pretty great with it anyway but there's always more to learn with magic.]
no subject
[It just amuses him she' try to boss him around.]
You underestimate pixies. Even if you'd sleep with ten other people in the same room, they could still surprise you.
no subject
It's not like I need to hide them here.
[It's just a challenge for everyone trying to get to know her, whether or not they like her true colors or not after seeing fake ones at first.]
I don't, though I can see how it sounded like that but that is true about them surprising anyone.
[If anything she thinks they'd sneak in while everyone is asleep whether that's one person, a group of three or ten or more people... Seems like he's not going to answer to the thing about more magic, huh? Well, guess there's nothing she or he can do about that. Does he even decide those things? Or is that the fae? Probably those, actually. Well, whatever.
Anyway, she actually gets to talk with Merlin of all people right now and she sure has been excitedly waiting for this! Hell with anything else, let's talk about MAGIC!!]
So tell me, what are your favorite things to do with kinetic magic? Same question about elemental too? What about with a combo of both? Favorite magic type in general if you have one and why? Favorite combos of all magic types here?
no subject
Teleportation and heating or cooling down a drink when needed. I don't exactly have a favorite magic type or a combination... but I do think technomancy is pretty cool with variety of magic.
no subject
Rin nods because yes, teleporting is great. But she looks surprised by the other answer(s).]
Ah yes, the little simple things in life like being able to do that to drinks. But I guess many would think your answer would be something else. [Instead of it being -- that which okay, yes, that's nice too.] I'm almost surprised, that you don't have a favorite but then again, that makes sense too when you have all of them.
[T-Technomancy?? Why that??? Kinetic is obviously much cooler with anything. Rin's really trying to keep a prim and proper face here but she's kinda like allergic to technomancy. Thanks home for your rules with mages and technology!!]
...Is that so? Well then, tell me some pretty cool things, that it might be able to do with kinetic and elemental?
[Pressing X to doubt your words, Merlin!!]
