He's actually startled enough that there's a snow flurry burst before it settles back down, letting her touch the cool snowflakes as if they were from outside.]
...Dreamotion is similar to magic, but it's also more than that. With enough focus and concentration, you can make whatever you have in mind. Your emotions will also affect it.
[ She giggles as the burst of snow cascades around them. The dogs barking and echoing both their surprise and excitement.
From here... the snowflakes look so beautiful. She's honestly come to appreciate them so much more, and seeing them this close makes her eyes sparkle with wonder. ]
I see... so it's the same when the starflowers appeared when we were first walking here! Tifa did that, didn't she?
[A light, soft smile and he forms one out of the snow.]
But you can do that as well. This world is also affected by our emotions. Whenever you feel strongly about something, that emotion will manifest in different ways. You might not have noticed it just yet.
[ she gasps as the snow changes form and pauses to admire the glisten and beauty of the design. Cautiously she will reach her hand towards it to lightly touch the end of the petal, and is shocked when the feeling was cold against her fingertips. It was real… and here… and Eustace had made it! She truly wondered if she could do something as beautiful, too! ]
I can do that as well… [ She considers, and closes her eyes to concentrate, clasping her hands tightly together. Lyria has felt so many emotions since arriving, but right now the one that was shining the brightest was not only her excitement, but her happiness as well. If she just thought hard enough about being happy!!
And suddenly, loudly, a loud pop! sound forces her eyes to rip open. There in between her hands is a magical sparkler. It’s bright and different colored lights dancing around in swirls and shooting off in all different directions until it dissipates as quickly as it came. ]
[ Lyria is still glancing at her hands as he spoke, consumed with adrenaline from what she had just experienced. Sure she had the power to summon godly and deadly beast, BUT THIS??? ]
Hehee, I'll be more careful next time! [ She pauses, considering. Lyria's demeanor slightly deflates, her eyes still staring at her hands. ]
[It's odd how he once used to see them as a threat to be eliminated but now has a more nuanced, neutral about them.]
Can you tell which ones? Admittedly I'm not too familiar with those who had similar capabilities adapting to this world, so I'm not sure how it will work for you.
Only a few... [ She touches the emblem to her chest and briefly closes her eyes. ] ... There are others, but I still feel Bahamut's presence the closest. [ Was one of them Bonito??? She wasn't so sure- ]
But if you are able to, it wouldn't be a bad idea to understand how they work. This world is for the most part peaceful, but like any other there are dangers, especially with nightmares and noctaere. There are also dangerous monsters further beyond the Wildlands.
[ That... was a good question. She peers down at herself again as if trying to listen. ]
I'm not sure if I know the difference yet, but I know they feel anxious and a little restless. It doesn't quite feel like the same connection I had from home, so maybe the dream world has something to do with it.
no subject
That's right. And they're giving their thanks as well.
no subject
[ She's petting the ones that have approached her, giving a small "you're welcome" to them as the pats are given out. But she does wonder... ]
Dreamotion... you said it is like "dream energy" in this world? Does that mean you can still do the same things you did back home? Like with Flamek?
no subject
[A small nod.]
Flamek is now powered with my dreamotion. Its output depends on how much I can give it. But I can do more with it as well.
[He extends his hand and snowflakes appear.]
1/2
no subject
WAAAAH!! Eustace, what!? But how...!? [ She's scurrying up next to him, a hand extending to try and touch it. ]
A snowflake, a real snowflake...!

I want to make pretty things appear, too...

D-did you see that!?
no subject
Yes, well done. But you should also try to be careful and mindful of what you create.
no subject
Hehee, I'll be more careful next time! [ She pauses, considering. Lyria's demeanor slightly deflates, her eyes still staring at her hands. ]
... I haven't tried doing "that" here yet.
no subject
[No why did her expression fall? What could she—
Ah.
It comes a second too late, but Eustace starts to realize what she might mean.]
no subject
Mhmm. I wasn't sure if it would be the same as it was back home... but something about it feels weaker. I can still "feel" them, though.
no subject
[It's odd how he once used to see them as a threat to be eliminated but now has a more nuanced, neutral about them.]
Can you tell which ones? Admittedly I'm not too familiar with those who had similar capabilities adapting to this world, so I'm not sure how it will work for you.
no subject
Do you think I will have to use my powers here?
no subject
[A small pause.]
But if you are able to, it wouldn't be a bad idea to understand how they work. This world is for the most part peaceful, but like any other there are dangers, especially with nightmares and noctaere. There are also dangerous monsters further beyond the Wildlands.
no subject
You're right! I... want to protect the people of this world too, so I'll try to do what I can!
no subject
But I wonder... If what you feel are some dream form of themselves or if you can actually feel their original forms back in our world.
no subject
I'm not sure if I know the difference yet, but I know they feel anxious and a little restless. It doesn't quite feel like the same connection I had from home, so maybe the dream world has something to do with it.
no subject
[He looks at her carefully.]
Do you want to try it?
no subject
Taking in a deep breath, she firmly nods. ] Yes... I'll give it a try! Is there a quiet place we could go to?
no subject
I didn't mean right now if you need more time... But yes, I know a place we can go to try it out.
no subject
No, it's alright! I can do this! [ She glances up at him with sparks of determination in her eyes. ]
And because with you here with me... I feel like I can be brave...!
no subject
All right.
[....Hm....]
It'll be a bit of a walk... How comfortable are you with riding on a horse?
no subject
[ Wait, where did this come from!? She couldn’t exactly recall a time, so she shakes her head, clearly confused. ]
No, I haven’t… Eustace, do you have a horse!?
