#Con taught me that I am actually a real furry

I me myself needs a good few days of rest and relaxation.

Instead of torturing my personas in my own emotional distress, I will instead draw my personas just having a good self-care day.

This is a guide on... how to, magically... pizza, this is

“Log 094: The Magic”

What am I saying? That’s not what this should be... Eh! Let’s try this again...

Dear video log... dear video log, I’d like to document the... what? ...... *annoyed sigh* ehhh fine!

Log 094: The Magic

I keep it that way... I just want to make this short ramble about, magic!

Today I baked a pizza with my mind, and really, this is a big achievement. You know, Inkwell energy patterns are almost incomprehensible! Do you have any idea how hard it is to do magic here, huh? It’s a necessity to sense and know exactly what I do or there will be undesired consequences... *quietly and quickly said* and apparently I still blew it in the end even when I had a decent idea... Well, let’s start by saying this! The day I arrived at this new universe, this Inkwell place, it was the WORST! I lost the physical form I was used to because of a supposedly common Lapse, I tell you these Lapses had done worse... I got off lucky but still I felt it, this universe hated my guts, I’m furry, I look like I am supposed to be a cat, this form looked stranger the more you looked at it!!

So, how am I finally able to bake this pizza with magic? I came a long, long way.

This... magic, it’s a normal part of me that I am used to and comfortable with, like my arms, or my legs, it’s something, so, so familiar, something I don’t usually take notice in, but when it’s gone or out of order all of a sudden, I’d feel that nothing is right. The first few days in Inkwell I can’t use magic at all, curse you universe! Firstly I though of it as just an Energy-Conflict which will eventually smoothen out, but looking back I think that was not the only cause, anyhow... I told you, this universe is the worst! It’s NOT welcoming especially if it decides to disrupts my magic. I got very worried! I would have never gotten used to Inkwell, if not for how Dice taught me this simple method of somewhat regaining my magical abilities.

I would begin with an object, a medium, not specifically a wand it can actually be anything from this universe, just something to take hold of and focus on. *lowers voice* Psst, wands are cool, I was just nervous when Dice presented me a vase as target practice and told me to try and blast it, possible failure hurts my massive ego then, so me not wanting a wand was a lame excuse... and I just realized now as I am recording this log that Dice probably knew for certain I was someone that would pull this excuse five days after we’ve met... but I don’t regret it because now I have an awesome trident made with love. This sounds so ridiculous but it actually works, I started by thinking about hitting the vase, making a wild guess of how it should be done, then I poked on and altered the energy patterns I could map out with the trident according to my guesswork, and... I destroyed the vase, and the wall, and the woods, and some random hill site beyond the woods; fun fact, the hole I made then is now the cave for our casino.

And so for a long time I used the trident, for all sorts of stuff. To be honest if I were to bake this pizza with the help of the trident it would be much easier, I’m very used to the trident by now. The reason I wanted to go without it today was because I wanted more of a challenge.

John and James are jerks! So I was heating this pizza for Dice, eh the way John said all of a sudden, *exaggerated impersonation* “don’t push yourself too far, you know Mr. King Dice accepts you for who you are, even if you can’t bake this pizza the way you’d like to” HAHAHAHAHA what do you mean by pushing myself... TOO FAR, heh?!! ... typical John made something soothing sound so miserable once again by choosing the most inappropriate moment to squeeze it in!!! This is almost magic itself!

Me repeatedly shouting “PIZZA” was actually not baking it. Probably because I don’t use spell words, different types of spoken spells combined with some awkward body movement like *moves around to give examples in background* “abracadabra”, “wingardium leviosa”, or in this case, “PIZZA PIZZA PIZZA!” Eh... spoken spells have their own pros and cons, for me pros usually being fewer than cons, now it’s confirmed. Though shouting “PIZZA” was not at all a useless move. Guess Dice meant for me to get the stress and rush out of my system as I shouted “pizza pizza pizza” first rather than doing the baking.

Oh yeah, through much hardship and Dice’s step to step coaching plus encouragement, this one day I FINALLY moved on to this new level... Just two weeks before I am finally able to shoot fire out of my fingers without the help of the trident. It would have been way cooler if I could actually breathe fire before in Sugarland, but that’s another story entirely... Because it took so long and was so hard for my foreign self to calibrate according to the Inkwell environment, I lost it. That day I could light our stove, I screamed, then ran around lighting every inch of my way.

Not one word could get to me! I almost burnt the casino down to the ground if I wasn’t stopped by force HHHHH good times...

Blasting stuff with fire... all that out of the way, I concentrated on that pizza. John is effecting my level of concentration just by standing there so first I made him leave. Deep breath, center myself, energize, bake it well, and...

That pizza was unbelievably efficiently done, the first perfect pizza that came out of my hands, there was not a single glimmer, not a single spark no nothing, just the perfectly evenly baked pizza, which was gone in a flash, a literal flash... I blew it!

EHH!!! Isn’t it always supposed to be... I mean when you harness some energy from your emotions... the more your feelings build, the stronger your magic gets? Here’s my question now, why, does crushing on someone screw things up instead... *blush* uh I hope Dice skips this crappy entry entirely this is embarrassing to look at! Perhaps such a sudden, unpredicted blast of emotions is always too much to handle no matter who you are.

I ended up making lasagna in the end, BY HAND...... Sometimes I wonder why I don’t just ask Dice to whip something up for me instead... I mean science something up instead of me pathetic attempt of making magic here in Inkwell. His techie stuff, like this video log, and the trident I keep with me almost all the time, covers more than what I can do with my, *sigh* Inkwell-restricted magic anyway.

Oh right, I suppose learning to harmonize with a universe right from the minute you get there is the real idea behind my magic training...

Hey thankfully I didn’t persist on “the guide to pizza” as the title, because you end up with Lasagna instead, completely off topic!

*suddenly busting in* “How was you lasagna “Boss”?”

“Aye! I’m busy!! Make your own logs John so you have something to...” *cut off*

I decided to make this look like an unstructured video diary thing, Devil didn’t explain every magical terminology/concept, because when one is born with magic they tend to forget there are those whom don’t know as much about magic as they do, besides there is also going to be communication obstacles if there is a difference in terms
