[Edward's been seeing all of these different posts come up. It's obnoxious to him, but he can see the potential of being able to communicate with so many like this, so he decided to give it a try.]

It's come to my attention that there's a few people here who use "magic." From what I've seen, there's nothing like it where I come from and I have a few questions for anyone who's willing to answer.

In science, you've got different laws that everything follows. Is that the same for magic? Does some magic have laws while others don't?

Are there different fields of magic? What are they?

Where does the energy or power come from?

What makes it "magic" and not a field of science?

I won’t pretend to be clear on the metaphysics of the whole thing, since I’ve never really looked into it beyond what I might need to know for practical reasons. I’ve got a few acquaintances who could probably talk your ear off about it, but as far as I know I’m the only one here from my particular version of reality.

I see. Thanks for telling me about your world though. You were a lot of help.

Would you mind if I asked you for a demonstration of this bending? I'd happily show you some alchemy is exchange.

[bloodisthicker]

You’re welcome. I’d be happy to discuss it anytime, but like I said, my knowledge is limited in some areas.

Anyway, that would definitely be interesting. Would you prefer to do it in person, or would you like to switch to the video mode of our devices?

[milkisgross]

I'd prefer in person if you don't mind. The video function is pretty good on this little thing, but it still doesn't beat seeing something with your own eyes.

[OoC: If this is something you'd like to play out, just let me know! I'm not sure it would go any further than them showing each other their powers, but I'm sure it'll be fun regardless.]

Oh, I agree. I've been checking out some of the locations, so maybe we ought to head towards the beach so there's some space? It's probably the best place for it for obvious reasons.

[let's do it! I think it will be fun even if it just stops there. i've got an open post over here.]
