[The PCD has apparently turned on in Molly's pocket as she's out exploring -- for a moment or two, all that can be heard is the sound of her walking. Then, she stops, quiet and staring for a moment, until there's the sound of something lunging for her, and a soft breath from Molly.]

Oh shit oh shit oh shit I'm too young to get eaten.

[She digs in her pocket, pulls out the PCD and tosses it aside, where it settles on Molly, wand at the ready, facing off against a parasite in the distance. She grits her teeth for a moment or two, then mutters a quiet word in Japanese, and a fireball goes shooting towards the creature. However, fire and defensive magic aren't exactly her strong suit, so the fireball promptly gets bigger and bigger, until it peters out a short distance away from the parasite. Molly curses quietly and closes her eyes, and to all appearances, disappears after a moment or two. The parasite quickly loses interest and leaves. When she's sure it's safe, Molly drops the veil and tentatively picks up the PCD and pokes at it, shaking her head. She looks a little sooty and singed, but otherwise unharmed, if slightly tired.]

Dammit. You guys weren't supposed to see that. Sorry.

Gotta watch out for these things. The on button's a bit touchy.

So, magic, huh?

[There's a slight haze of leftover static when she replies, but it's mostly intellgible.]

Yeah, magic. Better at some things than others.

Isn't everybody? Ya did a pretty good job of duckin' that thing, that's for sure.

[wishgrant]

We weren't supposed to know that you're a witch?

[magicalpadawan.livejournal.com]

Um, no, you weren't supposed to see me sucking at fireballs.

[everwotching.livejournal.com]

Everyone has moments of panic.

[expunger]

[Angel headtilt™.]

Why?

[magicalpadawan.livejournal.com]

...Because I messed up?

[expunger]

Then practice.

[Usagi is much less concerned with the spell backfiring and much more concerned with the possibility of Molly being hurt.]

Are you alright?!

[magicalpadawan.livejournal.com]

[A sheepish laugh.]

I'm okay. A little singed, but at least I didn't make myself pass out or anything this time.

As long as you're alright, it's ---

[Wait.]

Does that mean those things happened before?!

If your skills lie somewhere besides simple offense, you'd be better off going directly to what you're good at. It's always better to play to your strengths.

[Molly totally wanted unsolicited advice, I'm sure.]

[She rolls her eyes.]

Gee, thanks.

[crux-ofmylife.livejournal.com]

Might want to practice that a bit.

[magicalpadawan.livejournal.com]

I've been trying, it's not really my thing.

[Ahaha, fire. One of Jack's few triggers. Still, it's Molly, and he wants to be sure she's alright. Video's turned off so she won't see how pale and shaky he is right now, but his voice is still trembling slightly.]

Molly! Are you alright?

[audio]

[magicalpadawan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm fine, just a little singed. Don't worry.

[video]

[kill-joo-ded.livejournal.com]

Not bad.

[video]

[magicalpadawan.livejournal.com]

Um, thanks.

[He hadn't planned on keeping an eye on Molly once he'd found her a shower and a place to sleep, but it's pretty hard to ignore it when Molly pulls a Harry.]

I think you'd be better off with a flamethrower, Molly.

[video]

[magicalpadawan.livejournal.com]

[Yeah, she has a tendency to do that.]

...Probably. [Have a sheepish look, Thomas.] I'd have to find one first, though.
