conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Eeek! Cease stroking my palm at once!"
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  C’mon, it’s not every day we hold hands like lovers. I’d be remiss not to enjoy it as much as I can!
conversations.prefix: Rae:

conversations.value:  "Next, try channeling a small amount of pure, attribute-less magic through your hand."
conversations.prefix: Mr. Torrid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Right-o."
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Wait just a moment, Rae! What are you thinking, Mr. Torrid?!" Claire said, incredulously.
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Is something the matter?"
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Yes, of course! Sending pure magic into another person is extremely harmful. This is elementary magic theory!"
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Ohh, really?"
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "You didn’t know?!" she exclaimed.
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  Such a fact hadn’t been anywhere in Revolution. I suspected it was such common sense in this world that it wasn’t even worth mentioning.
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "You are correct, Ms. Claire. Under normal circumstances, it isn’t safe. I lost my daughter in just such a way. But the apostle insisted you two would be fine, so…"
conversations.prefix: Mr. Torrid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "So we have no choice but to try it. Fine. In the event something goes wrong, I’m trusting you to heal us, Mr. Torrid."
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Don’t worry, I will."
conversations.prefix: Mr. Torrid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  What we had to do was similar to what May had done when she opened the Box of the Forbidden. Attribute-less magic dispersed rather easily, so controlling it proved somewhat difficult. Taking extreme care, I slowly sent my magic into Claire’s hand. "How is it? Do you feel sick in any way?"
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "No, not particularly. In fact, I feel something warm flowing from your hand. It’s comforting."
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Well, your magic makes me feel all hot and tingly inside."
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Phrasing, Rae."
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  What? It’s true.
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Hmm… It would seem the apostle was telling the truth. Your magics must be compatible—they’re melding together very well. Tandem casting shouldn’t be a problem, then. Let’s give it a go. You should be able to jointly cast any magic either of you have an attribute for."
conversations.prefix: Mr. Torrid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Meaning, between Rae and me, we can cast earth, water, or fire magic?"
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Indeed. It’ll likely be a bit hard to control at first, so start by casting an extremely simple fire bullet."
conversations.prefix: Mr. Torrid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Understood. Are you ready, Rae?"
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Yes." Fire magic was uncharted territory for me. I wasn’t certain how well I could do.
conversations.prefix: Rae:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Extend your connected hands forward."
conversations.prefix: Mr. Torrid:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  "Like this?"
conversations.prefix: Claire:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  "Good. Now imagine a fire bullet forming in front of your hands. Let’s have Ms. Claire focus on controlling the magic while Ms. Rae focuses on supporting." Positioned as though we were about to begin ballroom dancing, Claire and I focused as hard as we could. We held our wand hands forward as we kept our other hands joined together by our opposite sides. But nothing happened.
