hey
so has anyone else noticed that their magic is all fucked up?
if you're not used to magic it'd be sweet if we could skip past the whole disbelief and shock part of this convo
i'm a wizard and it's cool as hell and i don't have a big white beard and now we're moving on
anyway my point is, nothing but the bonfire and lanterns seems to be casting any light
i figured maybe the darkness here was caused by a spell, but i have fire and light spells that are supposed to work anyway and they're not
so i guess my question is if anyone has spells or magic that are actually casting light
everything else i've tried casting has worked fine

[ultimatums]

Yeah, my magic is all out of sorts
Can't do any of my many spells or charms at present
And my hexes? Forget about it

[ :/ ]

@username

[dualikey]

oh
i guess i should've thought of that sooner



aw man! my fire's not working either!

@drake

[nonscriptum]

yeah prestidigitation is all fucked when i try to light something

@mikaelson

[tribridfreakshow]

i thought it might be a spell too, but i can't figure out how to dispell it without more information. that's if it's a spell at all.

my magic isn't casting any light either.

[evocation]

omg you're the worst
i'm being serious for once

[ultimatums]

Try as I might, Kyna, I just can't get any of my jinxes to work properly
And here you sit on your throne of lies
Calling me the worst

[evocation]

it kind of works, right?
it just looks super weird and doesn't set anything else on fire?

[evocation]

what did you try?

[evocation]

wait
you know prestidigitation?

[evocation]

i'm totally gonna curse you
don't cowboys know how to start fires with like
their teeth or something?

[nonscriptum]

yeah, taako taught me a bunch of "intro to wizarding" stuff

everything else is working here except the spells that create light

[ultimatums]

Must've missed that day at cowboy school
I could probably start a stick fire but it'd take some elbow grease

[evocation]

try it
uh
please?

[ultimatums]

Let me get this straight
You want me to leave my room and find myself some sticks outside and try to make a fire

[evocation]

yep
come on
sticks aren't even hard to find

[evocation]

do you know any fire spells?

1/2

[ultimatums]

Fine
But only because I think you're funny

[ultimatums]

[ like, twenty minutes later. his arms are hurting and so is his back. kyna, you owe him bigtime for this. ]

Not even a spark

[evocation]

shit
did you get any smoke or anything?
and thanks for calling me funny
does that mean you like me?

[ultimatums]

Maybe

There was smoke, yeah
Nothing came out of it, though

[evocation]

that's fucked
right?

[ultimatums]

You have such a way with words
You're right though, it is
Looks to be Beacon-wide, although I can't say I'm surprised considering the bonfire and this lantern bullshit
What's your lantern look like, out of curiosity?

[evocation]

it's the elfiest bullshit i've ever seen
what about yours?

@dysmas

[chardismastic]

[ the disbelief lingers, but there's been some shit seen already and rafe can't help but let practicality win at the end of the day — and at least someone's looking for data and patterns to try and find a loophole ]

not just the magic. smartphone from home and this new tablet, neither throw any illumination outside the screen. it's just enough for the screens to function and be read but past that nada

i would say this isn't how light works but
i'm assuming you got the bonfire tutorial [ god knows the squawking was loud enough ]

[tribridfreakshow]

fire. illumination. they don't produce any actual light.

it's definitely not normal darkness, which makes me think the bonfire isn't normal fire either. same with the lanterns.

i've never heard of anything like it.
