Video - un:IZZYGRRRL83

[notwearingthekeds]

[Izzy is doing her very best, when the video starts, to look presentable and like she knows what she's doing. She is, however, fourteen and so the tension is real. She looks nervous and a bit uneasy. Although her hair is all neatly combed for once. And a new outfit, but it mostly makes her look like she's trying too hard.]

Um, hi. I'm Izzy. I... kinda want to move out of the hotel. I don't really know how to cook and I can't just keep eating bread rolls and cookies after work every day. If anyone wants to meet somewhere public so I can get to know you and see if it's- like, a good idea to move in?

I can help with rent, but I don't really know how to cook or anything. And you have to be okay with me playing the violin. I need to practice and all. I can clean, not like I do a lot of it but enough to keep my room from being a safety hazard. And- like other chores if they aren't super degrading.

Like- I guess the other thing is don't be a shithead who tries to make me go to fucking school.

[...she realized she was doing so well at not swearing until that last line. Looks deeply embarrassed (she tried to be respectable), and clicks off the feed with that.]

You have kinetic magic? Same as me. I also found out recently I can do more than just that, but it's been making a huge mess.

There are mentors and professors that can show you all of that. There are safe spots to practice it. Training grounds. I don't count that as school.

[notwearingthekeds]

I haven't been able to do it when I want, it just kinda happens. Usually when I'm practicing violin or painting.

I don't count that as a school either. I'd be okay going places like that.

[uenosama]

If you arrived very recently then yeah, that'll happen a lot. It happened to me too. But you'll get the hang of it.

I can show you the training grounds. I've been using them a lot myself recently.

You play the violin? For how long?

[notwearingthekeds]

I'd like to stop breaking cups and plates when they drop out of the air. So anything that helps with that.

Um... like six years? It's one of the things I've just always had in my schedule.

[uenosama]

haha yeah it will definitively stop that
I hope the reverse doesn't happen again
I had things fly away from me when I was near them

that's pretty cool. I can help you get a cheap one if you don't have it here
I work at the music store

[notwearingthekeds]

I guess making things float can be dangerous if they float fast enough huh?

It seems okay from my trip in the lake. But I'll probably need new strings for it eventually.

And maybe replace it with one that's ACTUALLY mine.

[uenosama]

Yes. I managed to levitate and push some logs once to defend myself and my friend against some trolls? I think? But it was really useful.

I work at the music shop and I'm pretty good at maintaining the instruments. If your violin is damaged, I can help you fix it. One of my bandmates also plays violin, he's really good.

Well, better a violin than no violin at all

[notwearingthekeds]

Throwing whole logs seems like it'd be a lot of effort.

But I've never had magic before, I don't really know how well it works.

And I guess it could do with a bit of maintainance, after the whole lake thing.
