[Hello Luceti, the Ion on your screen today is actually Florian wearing a colored paper headdress with green feathers taped onto it. Also his old newfeather dress, because why not. Lying on the floor in a sudden fit of ennui, he picks up his journal for some chatting.]

Ion's chair broke...I wanted to play with it, too. [He pauses for a moment, thinking. If Ion's chair is broken, then does somebody have to carry him around? Or do they find a new chair? Or--oh hey there's a big stick under his bed he'd totally forgotten about that.]

...Is there a special way to punch people? Like how there's special ways to use a sword, and you have to practice and all of that. So maybe I could learn to fight like that, and then I could save the day and be a hero and ride a dragon and--

[He's been lifting the journal higher and higher over his head as he says this from his position on the floor, to the point that it's practically touching the floor--which is when it slips out of his fingers and falls shut. Oops.]

.....The running's more fun than homework, too.

[wise_maiden]

I'm sure the homework could seem more fun if you applied yourself more. Why don't you ask Tear for more help? She is a tutor.

[positivelycharged]

I guess I could...I'll ask her for help later then.

[Reluctantly, but he'll do it.]

[wise_maiden]

I'm sure she wouldn't mind. I'm sure you'll feel better about the lessons with her help. And even from Anise, when she gets back, or Ion himself.

[positivelycharged]

All of them?

[wise_maiden]

It might help to get different ideas. But in regard to studying, Tear is probably your best bet for now.

[positivelycharged]

Okay. I'll ask Tear then! Is she the smartest one?

[wise_maiden]

She's the most experienced. That goes a long way.

[positivelycharged]

Ohh that makes sense. Because she's older, right?

[wise_maiden]

Yes, and she's spent a lot of her time studying, so she knows how to apply herself.

[positivelycharged]

Did she go to school too?

[wise_maiden]

She was going to school here before she became a tutor. You can ask her about what she's learned from Auldrant as well.

[positivelycharged]

Oh, that's a good idea! I should probably know more about Auldrant, since I'm from there and all.

Knowing the history of your own world is very important. It'll give you more to talk about once you get an understanding for how it works.
