41st Resurrection

[Look out below, Mayfield! There's something being dropped on you. It's small and light, made of wood... why look, it's a chess piece. It might have been dropped right on you or nearby you from above, by a large black crow. It sits on a phone wire, cawing. Does it sound just a little bit like laughter?

Elsewhere around town, Theo can be found searching for the pieces, grumbling to himself. A different crow is sitting on his shoulder, occasionally hopping or flying nearby to help look. Theo's talking to it.]

No, go over there. Higher! You're a bird, don't you have better eyes than people? He's taken almost all the pieces. Just know when I see him next time, I'm gonna wring his neck.

[They stumble across a piece every once in while, but didn't you just get hit with a chess a few minutes ago?]

[[Please just specify if you're approaching the first crow - he can talk to people - or approaching Theo and the other bird!]]

[because he's weak to moe- OH NO WAIT NO HE'S NOT]

And I'm Mami, so now we aren't even strangers.

[brief curtsy] So, how long have you had those crows?

[He's is secretly thrilled to have someone to teach.]

Hnn. July or August, I suppose. About when I got my magic back.

[mentally calculating- he means last year?!]

Wow, that long?

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Though, I have to redo the spell every morning as Mayfield likes to reset things back to normal every few days. They're not from home, they're from here.

[headedforhope]

Does that mean it's not a terribly complicated sort of spell, if you can cast it that often?

[sanctusdei.livejournal.com]

No, it's an easy one. It doesn't take a lot.

[headedforhope]

I see....how interesting! This town certainly has a lot of magically-gifted people, it seems.

Most people in town seem to have some sort of "unique" ability.
