Eighth PSI

[a_gentle_boy]

Hi, everyone.

Um.  I guess this is kind of a silly thing to mention, but I'd like to say that what I got back the other day was my PSI.  I think most people think of it as magic . . . But it's a bit different.  Anyway, most of the PSI I know is used for defense and healing.  So if anyone is ever hurt or anything, please let me know.  I'm sure a lot of other people here know healing magic, too, but I'll be glad to fix you up as well as I can, which is, well.  Pretty good, actually.  I can heal mostly anything . . . As long as you're not actually dead, Lifeup will do the trick.  Oh.  I can't turn people back from stone either.  Which actually happens more often than you'd think it would.

I was thinking about finding a job at the hospital . . . But I don't think they take kids.

Anyway, thanks for your time.

EDIT:
[Lucas's PSI skills are put to the test.  Unfortunately, the poor guy was dead before he could do anything at all.]

 AH!  Mr. Captain . . . He -- I think he's dead.  W-What should I do?  When will he come back?! . . . . . How could something like this have happened already?

Yeah... Yeah, most people're good. That's the most important thing to remember here, I reckon. Most people're good.

[He laughs thinly.] Think I'm startin' to get bitter. Y'make sure I don't, alright, Lucas?

I meant to write musician. >_>

Awwww.

[Some tenderness creeps into her voice. She sounds relieved.]

"You're a very brave little boy. What's your name?"

[steel-massifail.livejournal.com]

It's kind of complex and I really don't want to get into the details...

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh. Alright, then. Sorry to pry.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Lucas. It wasn't a big deal, really. We couldn't have just let it go out in the street and stuff.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

OK. I can yell at you every time you start to believe otherwise.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh. I'm sorry. I'm only passingly decent at singing myself, I think.

. . . Why is it that you, um. Keep croaking, then?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh, um. Right. Thank you . . .

Because I'm a frog - Ribbit! I can't help it!

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Really? Does that mean you're the Frog Prince, then?

[veggiephobe.livejournal.com]

FROG KING - Ribbit!! FROG KING!!

[He coughs on the phone, making a mental note not to yell on the phone until his throat heals]

Hurr hurr whoops already asked his name before, I should pay more attention

[pinkplumblossom.livejournal.com]

Well, still... I could never have done that. I'd be too afraid.

No problem. =P

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

That's OK. Different people are good at different things . . . And you know, I never would have been able to do it a few years ago, either.

[pinkplumblossom.livejournal.com]

It sounds like something that requires a lot of practice and concentration.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh. I guess kings are more unpleasant grouchy angry unreasonable well-regarded than princes.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Fighting monsters? . . . Yeah. Lots of practice is pretty helpful, though it doesn't really get much easier.

[pinkplumblossom.livejournal.com]

Well, I meant psychic powers, actually, but I suppose it would apply to fighting monsters too.

[veggiephobe.livejournal.com]

Why would anyone care for a prince when a KING is above them? It makes perfect sense to disregard the one who tries to overthrown you!

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Well, a prince would probably be more around my age, so he'd be someone to play with.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Oh! Right. Concentration and practice . . . You know, I'm still not really sure how I got them in the first place.

[veggiephobe.livejournal.com]

Any child with royal blood wouldn't dare play with a commoner! It is distasteful to even consider being around one for such purposes - Ribbit!

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

B-But you just said you wanted me to be around you all the time.

[veggiephobe.livejournal.com]

Only for work, not for play - Ribbit! That's all you inferior lowlifes are even good for!

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

That's not very nice. If you want people to do favors for you, you should ask nicely.
