Ooh, I hadn't thought about the name thing. I gotta think of a workaround on that. Overall I think I'm getting a lot of mileage out of incorporating "Appendix A" as a standard clause, it's loaded with a whole bunch of the usual "party of the first part doesn't do all this bad stuff to party of the second part". Seems a lot easier than writing it out every single time and maybe forgetting something.
Way ahead of you on the sex thing.
It seems like a really powerful potential magic, just relying on playing it very right and meeting the right people. But not really useful day-to-day like kinesis.
Smart you're writing it out. Not everyone writes the full text out and goes by bond of word. Easier to forget exact wording, that way.
Not all magics are for day-to-day use, but I guarantee you'll reach much higher heights than you will with anything you can use on a daily basis.
Though with more common ones, maybe try thinking side-to-side rather than up. Try building devices that work with kinetic energy. Think about those bikes that power blenders, but you've got magic.
I wish I could explain how hard that makes me laugh, but it's all about stuff from my old world!
I'd still like to understand our limits and how to overcome them, but this has been a pretty enlightening talk nonetheless. You've given me a lot to think about.
The only limits are your creativity and energy levels, Morgan. Everyone's experiences are different, and how you find a way to advance your magic is something only you can answer.
Hey, unsolicited advice and all and I know it might spoil the carefully-cultivated social media image, but you oughtta let this side of you slip out occasionally. I don't think a lot of the arrivals think you actually know your stuff. Might do them some good to get a better look at you.

Do you think I'm more of a Robin Williams or Will Smith?
