007 [Video]

[Like the last few posts that have occurred, this is also clearly in regards to the Null's latest announcement; however, Lance is trying a different tactic, because he's doing his best to avoid getting kicked out of seeing their list. So he's wording this very carefully, and that's purposefully obvious in his tone; it's also probably pretty obvious in how intent his stare is, and in how he's casually fiddling with his FBI badge in view of the screen.

He's really hoping the Null aren't too good with subtle body language, and that the people here aren't as generally bad at it as he's concerned they are.]

In light of recent occurrences, I'd like to remind everyone that I'm a psychologist, and I have an office in the clinic should anyone wish to speak confidentially. Additionally, although I prefer to work with individuals, group meetings are also possible.

[Aka the Clinic is available for anyone who wants to have private conversations about all of this going on, and Lance will be lurking there himself both to participate and keep watch on things.]

I don't exactly know what that means, but anything is better than nothing.

[One more thing he can spring on someone unexpectedly if he ends up at a disadvantage is going to help; he's purposefully allowed people to think he can't fight beyond shooting a gun, and he's made it no secret that he doesn't have any magic, so if he can learn anything at all that'll give him two trump cards instead of one.]

Thank you.

[evocation]

Oh, uh, maybe we should start with that. Evocation magic is elemental stuff—lightning, fire, that kind of thing.

[lifetothefullest]

[Right, give him a moment to remember his D&D knowledge; that sounds vaguely familiar.]

Okay, yeah, sure. Whatever you think is best.

[They don't even have magic--or at least not that he's aware of--in his world, so he's completely willing to trust her judgment on this.]

[evocation]

[She raises a hand, wiggles her fingers.]

I can teach you how to zap people. Like a built in taser, you know? Or make basic illusions. That might help.

[lifetothefullest]

[This is easily making up for how bad the rest of the day has been.]

Both of those could be incredibly useful.

[Zapping people especially, if it came down to a fight, but he can see how illusions might also be beneficial in some situations, particularly to avoid getting into a fight to begin with.]

[evocation]

Cool. We'll start with those.

[She hesitates.]

Whenever you're not slammed.

[lifetothefullest]

[...Yeah, he's not sure when that'll be, but it's probably best to at least let things settle for a day. Besides, if he's honest, he's too tired and has too much of a headache to be messing around with trying to do magic at this exact moment.]

That's probably a good idea. I'll send you a message tomorrow or the day after, if that works for you?

[evocation]

Yeah, sure. Do you need help around here or anything?

[lifetothefullest]

Aside from the rotation guarding outside, we're alright right now. There hasn't been anyone hurt yet, and hopefully there won't be at all, so everyone is mostly just taking precautions and then waiting.

[Which isn't at all fun, but it's also all they can do right now.]
