Yeah. Another name for them could be portals, but that's simplifying things a little... Basically, a wormhole is a kind of tunnel through spacetime. Well, the time part is theoretical - I've only ever managed to make one through space. It's a really complicated kind of magic where I'm from, though, because you have to make sure that it's safe to go through, and they're really unstable unless you're careful. They're rare for a reason.

It's a necessity, for me. Like anything you learn it when you practice. [...] You can ask whatever you'd like.
no subject
Well - you don't have to tell me, obvious. But why do you say necessity...?
no subject
To suppress my homicidal urges. [...] They are under control. You don't need to worry.
no subject
[anything she could possibly say seems so inadequate but also not saying anything seems bad]
Sorry, um, we don't have to talk about it. But we can if you want...?

I don't mind. If you'd like to know about it I can explain it to you, but I've long made my peace with it.

I don't know. [she kind of does, but.] I think if I knew better, I might not need to meditate.
