There's something I'm trying to figure out.
[A slightly bruised but quickly recovering Waver could be found on the network today. His right hand was raised to his head thoughtfully, displaying the mostly faded remnants of red markings that were once burned into the back of it.]
Could there really be something that passes for magecraft in this world? Not that I'm complaining, considering Palmon's second form is perfect for me, but I'm just wondering about the implications.
If there's a species of Digimon clearly classified as some sort of magus, just what qualifies as the 'magic' they're using? Some lines of code or circuitry? And if that's the case, could it be something people like us could work on utilizing?
...then again, maybe there's not much point in me considering this. [Waver sighed, shaking his head.] I don't know much about computers or programming, so I guess even if it was possible, I wouldn't be the one to figure it out.
[Someone really misses his magecraft, apparently.]

[ Waving her free hand. ] There's no mana within the air because it has been depleted due to a natural incident. That means magi, as you know, can't create prana due to the lack of this magical force within the atmosphere.
So the world is just like your own minus that. There's a lot of military organizations fighting for power and generally it's a rough life. If you've ever seen a documentary on a third world country, just imagine that more widespread throughout the world. Children are given guns, I mean come on. I arrived here with a rifle on my own.
I suppose it isn't all that bad, but if you're not able to fire a weapon, you're in a real tough spot.
[ See, her world is just fine.
It's just the moon shit that's out of this world HA HA HA. ]

[ It takes her less than two seconds to ragequit the conversation before any retort can be made. Sorry Waver, but that's a really sensitive subject. Congratulations on being the first person to actually cause her distress. ]
