imagination 20, afternoon (video)

[magicurls]

Hi, everyone. My name's Mami, if we haven't met, and I'm currently working with the healers aboard the train. But that's not what I want to talk about. Don't worry, this isn't serious or I would've spoken at the meeting.

Is anyone else studying the massage tutorial videos on the ICPs in the spa car? I thought that would be a nice service to offer---sore backs and strained muscles might not be as immediately obvious to a healer as field injuries, but I know so many of us are carrying heavy levels of stress that we could definitely use the work.

Anyway, I've learned a lot from the tapes, but I really think this is the kind of thing that can only be perfected through practice. If anyone would like to help me with that...well, I'd appreciate it! It'd be nice to have a group who can offer those services, I think.

Of course! I'll do my best.

[ And she just beams back. ]

Don't worry, Madoka. I trust you.

[ L-Look at just how much confidence Mami has in her! It's truly enough to render Madoka silent for a moment, though she also nods. ]

I.. I'll do my best too! I can imagine it must be so helpful for a lot of people if at least some of us knew how to do it..

I'm sure you'll be great at it. Come see me, I can walk you through level 1 to start.

Alright! Are you over there already, Mami-san? I'll make sure to come over right away!

[ Don't think she won't be dropping absolutely anything she's doing right now to go to a friend. ]

[magicurls]

Ready!

[ And she is. The room's all set up with soothing music, blankets of her own creation draped over the tables, and cushions dragged near the tutorial ICP. ]

Hi Madoka. Is everything all right?

[ This does seem like exactly the kind of place Mami is supposed to be, huh? Or maybe the kind of place you'd find the other girl naturally. The soothing atmosphere, the blankets. It's so very much like Mami.

After quickly looking around, the girl nods at the other's question. ]

Uh-huh! [ More like Mami is in luck that this is before the train question session happens.. ] I'm mostly excited to learn! You made it look so pretty here.

Okay! Let's take a seat here...as you're watching the tape, sit up straight. You'll want to breathe evenly and focus on your form, because you need to know the important muscles and how they work! It's all in the video, but a little awareness helps.

[ And when she's ready, she turns it on. ]

Just breathe, relax...and then it'll be practice time!
