Hello, this is Carlisle.

I mean, it's not Carlisle as in I'm actually answering you right now, so if you're trying to reply to me at the second, you should probably save your breath because I'm not really here. This is some kind of a recording of my voice, but this is my communicator. I'm going to assume these devices are as common here as they are in other places — not my world, but others, ones more technologically advanced than where I come from— so if you'd like to leave me a message, then you may do so here, or er...

Right. Here is fine. So just leave yo—

I will consider it.

[Maybe. He straightens his glasses.]

Are you interested in learning?

Me. ( she shrugs. that's not untrue, but still. ) Settin' up classes at th' clinic. Wanted someone to talk about magical healing.

[He scratches at his hairline, his nerves showing.]

Healing is not as easily trained as glyphcrafting. One must already possess some talent for it, and even then, it can be dangerous to someone who does not know how to properly manipulate their energy.

( alright, but; ) Think it'd be enough for a talk about how it works. People here who never had magic in their worlds, after all.

( come to think of it, it must be pretty weird to be magically healed you'd been convinced that such things weren't real.

and, actually. she's curious. )

There healing glyphs?

[Talking to a person or two in private on how magic works is far easier than talking to multiple people, especially when Carlisle is dealing with hangovers and headaches.]

Yes, though if someone unskilled were to activate one, the results could be disastrous for them.

( more reason to drink less! )

Howso?

( because having more healing methods would be incredibly useful, but she can see the danger in allowing people free access to these sorts of skills. the damage Confusion's revival did was enough proof of what happens when powers are allowed to run amok. )

There is a reason that, when teaching glyphcrafting, you start with something that doesn't require much eksth'alva. That is what magical energy each of us innately has. Or at least humans.

[Don't ask him to teach Shadow or Glacius magic. He's lucky enough that humans from other worlds can learn.]

Not everyone has much of it, and if someone who doesn't were to activate something as taxing as a healing glyph, then that may be the end of them.

( that's pretty clear, thank you, Carlisle. )

Reet.

( maybe not, then. )

You at least gonna talk about what th' process is like?

( Kate. there are nicer ways to ask that. )
