Why? Is the knob broken?

Re: [audio, action later]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

N-no, my fingers keep going through it! I-I think something's wrong with me! Hurry before they're ruined!

[audio, action later]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

Huh?! Okay! I'm coming!

Re: [audio, action later]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

[Tiffany is flailing trying to grab at the knob but her fingers keep slipping through it. She's all gray like when Noir goes intangible and she can't touch the stove]

H-h-h-hana! Help! *Tears*

[action later]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

... What the hell happened to you?

Re: [action later]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

I-I-I don't know! *Flails and tries to clutch at him falling right through him and crashing to the ground*

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

Woah, that's pretty cool, is it a new spell?

Re: [action]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

N-not really. It just happened a-and I can't touch anything except my D-comm!!!

[Flail flail flail]

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

Huh... Maybe you're dead?

Re: [action][1/2]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

[Sort of a choking noise like she's trying to cry out in fear but is so scared she can't even function that much, clutching at her chest in a panic]

[Enters the kitchen walking right through Tiffany]

C-c-c-COLD!!!

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

Oh, hi, Sandy-chan.

[Reaches out and puts a hand through Tiffany right in her chest of course!] Hmmm... But, if you were a ghost, I should still be able to touch you.

Re: [action]

[justoutrunyou.livejournal.com]

What's going on?

[And of coarse she's blushing as he pokes around in her] I-I'm all...Ghosty...and stuff!

...cool!

Not cool!!!

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

I still say you were messing with magic.

Re: [action]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

W-was not!

[Foom and the cookies are now on fire, Sandy casually points at them]

Fire.

FIRE!!!

[Ryu busts in through the door] FIRE?!

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

See? It has to be magic. When ever Tiff-chan does magic and it goes wrong, there's fire.

Re: [action]

[pompadourpower.livejournal.com]

Ya know he's got a point.

Now Miss Tiffany, didn't we have a discussion about doing magic experiments in the house?

I-I was not doing a spell I was baking!!!

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

... Maybe you're turning into a bad cook? Like that saying 'practise makes perfect', you were already so good you're just gonna start getting worse.

Re: [action]

[justoutrunyou.livejournal.com]

W-what? No t-that can't be it!

Aw man that would suck. Then who would cook for us.

I enjoy cooking [Oh right turns off the oven...the cookies are still on fire though]

Oh, we're good then.

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

... [Tries to pick one up and eat it.] OW!

Re: [action]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

H-HANA!

Dude! Why?

I'll get the first aid kit.

C-cold water! Run the burns under cold water! Hurry!

[Sandy tries to lead him to the sink to do that]

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

They smelt good! ... Under the burning.

[Following Sandy.]

Re: [action]

[justoutrunyou.livejournal.com]

[Sandy's blushing and smiling as she runs his burns under the cold water] You're so manly Hana! You're not cryin' or anything!

M-maybe this is a virus...I should check the network. So weird I can still use my d-comm

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

[Pulls face when cold water hits scolded skin but otherwise shrugs.] It's not that bad.

Maybe it's a witchy thing?

Re: [action]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

ooo like a magical time of the month?

*squeak* I-i-it's not that!!!

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

Time of the... [Jumps back and hides behind Ryu's leg.]

Re: [action]

[justoutrunyou.livejournal.com]

I got the burn...ointment...why are we hiding?

It's Tiffany's magical Time of the month.

Urk!

I-it is NOT!!!

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

Careful, she might throw burning chairs at you, Ryu.

Re: [action]

[pompadourpower.livejournal.com]

I-I can't even lift anything let alone throw it!

Don't listen to her Hana she might use her magic floaty powers! Let's hide while we still can.

W-when have I ever done anything more then hide in my room with books and some chocolate when it's that time!??!

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

... Is that what you were doing?

Re: [action]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

W-what did you think I was doing?

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

I dunno. Sewing?

Sandy-chan said 'it'd be better if I didn't know'.

Re: [action]

[justoutrunyou.livejournal.com]

Well you do freak out whenever someone says "Time of the month" or "Monthly monster"

a-actually I do sew some too...last month I made you those socks you're wearing.

[Meanwhile Ryu is putting bandages on Hana's burned fingers]

And it's the only time I get to cuddle with him because when you're not locked up in the bedroom you're attached to him like he's covered in web.

H-he's very comforting.

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

It's really scary!

[Is liable to chew at those.]

Tiff-chan likes cuddles is all.

Re: [action]

[justoutrunyou.livejournal.com]

S-sorry f-for being scary...

[Don't make me put a cone on your head like a puppy]

So do I! [cuddle nuzzle]

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

No, the monster is scary. Tiff-chan isn't scary at all.

[... Chew.]

Re: [action]

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

I-I wish I could cuddle right now. *whimper*

[Cone of shame!!!]

[action]

[asakura-flower.livejournal.com]

Heheh, Tiff-chan really like hugs.

What the... Ryu, what the heck is this thing?

Re: [action]

[justoutrunyou.livejournal.com]

It's so you don't chew on your bandages.

He's not a puppy! *Tries to help him take it off*

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

Oh dear...

Tiffany, it's a bit late to help with the cookies, but... don't you think this would be a good opportunity to hone your skills in the event that something like this happens again?

Every hardship offers a learning opportunity, after all.

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

I-I suppose so..b-but does magic even work in this form?

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

I haven't been affected yet, but the spells I've been teaching you shouldn't be affected by whatever this is.

They may not affect the world around you, but that doesn't mean you can't get creative in order to make OTHER things affect the world around you.

Cause, effect, action, reaction. Magic is all about breaking the laws of physics, I'm sure you can come up with something. :)

[hctiwknip.livejournal.com]

[Sound of something being magically pushed off the table and Tiffany squeaking]

G-goodness you're right! I-I was in such a panic before I-I didn't think about it. A-and then I got embarrassed and distracted because Hana and Sandy decided i-it was a magical side effect from um...a monthly issue...

[scrapperzen.livejournal.com]

Unless you're from Lina's world, the only thing a monthly issue will do is slightly affect the flow of your body's energy. ;)

And you see? A little creativity can go a long way. Always remember that you're able to rely on yourself, even when the situation changes radically. Your body won't fail you until you let it. Keep track of your own energy, and you can do anything as a mage.
