[Cloche is out in the village, getting what may seem like a late night snack from the store. However, she looks as if she hasn't been sleeping well. She might blame it on her injuries that are still healing up from her mallynap, or something else entirely.

You can catch her either on her way there, stopping to rest at the fountain on her way back with food, or on the path back to her community housing.]

It's true! I think you're just fine! You could compete with some of the Reyvateils I know! You'd certainly be an anomaly if you were to ever to visit Metafalss, but I'd know that you were just as powerful.

[falenanthief]

Thanks, Cloche. [He's rather tempted to pat her on the head.] If I remember right, you said songs have magic in them in your world?

[implanta]

Oh! Yes, made from our emotions. We sing and we can produce magic or bigger effects.

[falenanthief]

Like when you helped me that time. [He really appreciate that.] And...uh, thanks again for that.

[implanta]

Of course. I wouldn't have let you stay hurt. We can create stronger magic usually, but I don't think I can while I'm here.

[falenanthief]

I think I heard something like that. Our powers aren't as strong here...but I know we can use them at full strength outside of Luceti.

[implanta]

Well... no, not quite like that. There's a potential that I can create stronger magic if... certain conditions are met. Since I sing for magic, I have to have the emotions to go with it.

[falenanthief]

Certain conditions...conditions like what?

[implanta]

[Ohhhh boy here's where the explanations make people kind of... scared? Thinking terrible thoughts? Cloche remembers the reaction Touma had, at least.]

Er... well, in my world, it's called Diving. Someone I trust would Dive into my subconscious and help me create magic from emotions. There are no Dive machines here, so no one can really do that.

[falenanthief]

[Okay, so...] So with someone you trust, you let them...inside your mind? Soul?

[implanta]

Yes. As I said, it's called Diving. We have to trust the person to let them deeper into our minds.

[falenanthief]

Doesn't it hurt? [He's not expert, but is that safe? And doesn't that mean letting them know stuff?]

[implanta]

Hurt? No, it doesn't hurt. It's... well, we enter a Dive machine - a machine where we both sort of... sleep. I'm in one pod, the person Diving into me in the other. I'm not really sure how else to further explain it, I don't really know how else it works beyond that.

[falenanthief]

Oh... [Even if she knows how to, Roy's not sure if he can understand it.]

Still...it's kind of too bad you can't do it here. I'm kind of curious on how it went.

[implanta]

[...is he saying he wants to Dive into her? serdytgku blushing like mad now]

I-- well-- i-i-it's fine! It's fine if I can't!

[falenanthief]

[MAYBE. Even if he doesn't...realise what he just implied. WHOOPS.]

Alright, if you say so.

[implanta]

I-I don't even know if I'd want to let anyone... anyone... [setrytyguhl oh man being a reyvateil is suffering.]

[falenanthief]

...? Let anyone what?

[implanta]

D-Dive into me. B-but that could change, but there's no way to even... to even Dive into me here!

[...innuendo everywhere.]

[falenanthief]

Oh, that. [All the innuendo...] Well, if that change ever come up, we can do it together!

[...fly over his head? IDEK.]

[implanta]

[pfffffffff


just--

ignore Cloche.


She's about as red as a beet right now.] Y-you'd want...

[falenanthief]

Yeah? I am a bit curious, y'know.

[implanta]

Th-that's... that's embarrassing! It's showing you everything...!

[mun is dyingCloche is dying of embarrassment here.]

[falenanthief]

Everything? [Wait for it...wait for it...]

[falenanthief]

Everything as in everything?!
