♜ one [ writing ]

I have a question for everyone here.

We're supposed to go sailing, but how does someone willingly go on a ship with so many different people, when doing so could put the people in your crew at risk? How do you live so closely with that many other people when just being near them could be dangerous for them?

[ The penmanship looks really old-fashioned, but still perfectly legible. It's clear this person hasn't seen anything written in a long time, but thankfully, writing is like riding a bicycle. It's not something anyone forgets how to do. There's SOME voices in the background, but it's distant and muffled. Whoever is writing this went to great lengths to avoid others. ]

They might think that, until I lose control of my magic again.

But you can't stay on the island. Plus, with how many people are there, isn't it a danger to less people on the seas than in an inhabited town?

[ ... well, she's got a point... ]

Let's say you're right. What would stop everyone on the ship from dying, even if I were to confine myself to the cargo hold? I still need to eat, drink, bathe, and occasionally have some fresh air, even if I am immortal. And if the worst were to happen, I can't crew a ship completely by myself.

[ And he'd really, really prefer not to live on a ship crewed entirely by Living Magic constructs. Especially after the way some of his more infamous creations turned out. ]

I don't know enough about your magic to say.

It kills on contact by forcibly ripping the soul out of its body.

[ ... not that he has any experience with what happens when the soul was never inside of the body to begin with. ]

Any time you touch someone?

No... no physical contact necessary.

How difficult...

But I still think it's bad for you to be alone.

I hope that some of these people from other worlds will have their own ways to resist my Death Magic. But it seems like a very big risk to take...

I bet a lot of people here are stronger than you expect!

There are plenty of powerful wizards and witches in my world. But Death Magic affects them the same way it would affect anyone else, unless they know a way to resist it.

But you can't assume the rules of your world apply to this one, or to the worlds other people are from.

I can't. I'm cautiously optimistic, but it's a very big chance for me to take.

I understand...

I hope things go well for you.

Thank you.

But if I might ask... my speaking of magic didn't seem to surprise you. Does it exist within your world, as well?

After being teleported to a whole different world, and learning there are a lot of others around, it's not very surprising to hear about.

I see.

[ Nice save, Madoka. ]

Thank you, regardless.

[ thank you, thank you ]

You're welcome. Let me know how everything goes, I want to make sure you're alright.

What is your name?

[ He can't really tell her if he doesn't know. ]

Oh, right! Sorry!

I'm Madoka Kaname. What's your name?

I am Zeref. [ A name he doesn't share lightly, but it's clear by now that she's never heard of that name. ] And thank you.

Nice to meet you. [ and a quick doodle!! ]

[ Hey, that's... actually kind of cute. ]

I'm not very good at drawing.

[ He's more of a writer. Particularly when it comes to books about dark magic that spawned several cults that worship him as a living deity. ]

It's nice to meet you, too.

[ Note to self... don't go near this girl. Nobody this needlessly friendly needs to be exposed to his accursed existence. ]
