If that was the case, and you didn't intend on swapping out those books and instruments for others relatively often, it seems like it would be a better idea to have the floating be an ability/enchantment of the objects themselves rather than an ability of your character. That also lets the teleportation be more powerful.

"...umm... cars?"


"Cars are a type of private transportation humans use to get around much faster than they could on foot. They're usually powered by petrol, gas, or diesel, although purely electric ones or other more exotic fuel sources exist. Typically they'll carry... "

Alex explains the general purpose and functioning of the car in decent detail, also touching on trucks, motorcycles, vans, scooters, trailers, and caravans.

"It's probably a lot to try and understand, but cars are something like the boat of the land."

"Wow~!"
She sounds genuinely happy, and stares at the ceiling fan like it's made of solid gold.
"Thank you, Alexander."

Alex smiled at her reaction, he was glad to hear Relspi so happy. Helping her come to understand the world was wonderful, and he liked her, despite her oddities, so... Why did he feel so sad?

"There are other things a lot more amazing than a ceiling fan. What else did you want to know about?"

I wrote this in the Discord chat but I suppose I should put it here too...

@Imic. My character already has Telekinesis as his power, so unless you really want to use it, would you please try to figure out something else you'd like to play around with (or focus on teleportation), or at least have it be developed later into the story as a tertiary ability rather than a primary one?

245
Emilia ignored all the whispering and just focused on her newfound feeling of agility. If they got into a fight, she'd need to make sure she didn't accidentally miss her attack timing due to unexpected speed.

246
Alex had underestimated the sheer amount of things Relspi did not know. Uncrossing one of his arms from behind his head, he points to the fan on the ceiling of his room.

"See that? It's one of those. And if it becomes turned on..."

He uses his ability to activate the fan without having to go to the switch. It begins to slowly turn, and a light breeze drifts through the room, gently playing with errant strands of hair.

"It pushes air around the room, and some people find it refreshing. Usually they're used in hot weather, though."

247
"..."
She mumbles something far too quiet for him to hear.

Alex couldn't hear what Relspi had replied with. Perhaps his arm had been slightly blocking out the noise, so he removed it and placed both arms under his head instead.

"Sorry, I couldn't understand. What else did you want to ask about?"

248
"No... I'm sorry if I'm taxing your mind too much."

Alex softly laughed.

"Don't worry, if there's one thing I have confidence in, it's my mind. To put it simply a propeller is something like a ceiling fan, but used for different things and far more powerful. The spinning creates a force that moves whatever the propeller is attached to. They're usually how ships that aren't sailboats move."

One thing he could sometimes struggle with, however, was making sure to explain things in a simple enough manner. It was no use talking to Relspi using terms she had never heard before, that would just make things even harder for her.

249
Alex, with his arm over his eyes, of course does not see Relspi blushing. Even if he had, it was unlikely he would understand why.

"Huge propellers beneath the waves, powered by varying sorts of energy systems. Do you know what propellers are?"

He expected her to, but she was also oddly clueless about things that Alex had always taken for granted as understood by anyone. Perhaps she had been raised in a sheltered manner, free from the troubles of the world, but also unable to see its beauty.

250
"The enormous cargo ships, huh? Is there anything specific or do you just want a general rundown?"

At least in terms of the mundane, Alex was confident in his ability to explain almost anything. There were a few things that might have escaped his attention, but outside of the extremely obscure or disgustingly obscene, he had at least a basic knowledge.

Here's the roleclaim for if something goes pear-shaped investigating Tiruin tonight.

Adored Med School Student

Nurse (auto): When a doctor dies, I will become a doctor.
Foo (night): I am apparently a vanilla townie with no abilities... Except for naturally amazing scum talents which allow me to inspect a player and learn their alignment.
Unlynchable (auto): If I am lynched, you will return to life.
Sleeper Reviver (auto): Currently not active, but if Weirdo dies you will become a Reviver. This insinuates Weirdo has some sort of revival ability, likely tying into why she's playing in such an obvious "lynch-me" fashion.
[Reviver (disabled auto): I will revive once on death.]
Motivator (night): At night, I can choose to grant someone an additional vote for the next day. Sort of sad to lose this one, but oh well.

Absolutely worth a watch.[/color]

Redwallzyl already posted that like 7 pages back. Also, CGPGrey has some good stuff.

I know, I've almost all of his, and this one bears repeating.

254
"Most things, huh..."

Alex wasn't sure where Relspi had come from that let her know so little, but he didn't think it was right to ask. At least, not yet.

"Alright, start small. Ask me what you want to know about, and I'll do my best to answer."

255
"Then what do you need to know more about? I might be able to help."
