un: man's greatest treasure (video)
[She switches on the video function of her device knowingly this time, as she climbs the stairs to a relatively quiet deck. It's daylight, and the moment she steps foot outside, she flinches; not that she believes in divination, but those fucking fortune fish were right.]
Ugh. Sun. [She squints and shields her eyes with one hand.]
Hello - I hear there are people who've newly joined our journey due east. I'd say welcome, but the circumstances of us meeting for the first time will never be better. Take it from experience. [The way she scrunches her nose here has little to do with the sun glinting in her eyes and more with the experience of circumstances.]
Anyway. My name's Hermione Granger, I come from a world where the planet I inhabit is called Earth, and the country I come from is called England. [A pause.] I am also a witch. It's not a thing we broadcast in my world, what with the rules about secrecy and not wanting non-magical users to know witches exist, but I figure when in Rome...
[ANYWAY 2.0] Tell me about yourselves. [She goes to turn the video off in wait, but it still catches the last mutter:] Bloody hell, I need a hat.
[ooc; NOTE ON TIMING: backdate this to before the plot rolls start, please.]

[He's only been human for a short time, okay, cut him some slack.]
Yo!
[He raises a hand in a quick greeting.]
I'm Izumi. I come from Japan and I used to be part of the Shinsengumi. I don't know if you've heard of them, in particular, but we worked under the Tokugawa Shogunate, if that helps.
...What do witches do, exactly? I can't say I've ever met one before.
video
Nevertheless, as her muggle history got frozen in time around the time she was eleven (she knows, atrocious that the wizarding world never prepares students for the muggle world!), she can't pinpoint when the Tokugawa Shogunate happened. But.]
Hi Izumi, it's nice to meet you? They don't sound familiar, I'm afraid - although, Japan does!
[And, as for witches.]
We do all sorts of things. Unless you're asking what I can do here specifically, in which case that'd be...brewing potions, sneaking into places, creating wards, summoning things out of thin air, turning objects into other objects... [A beat.] No fortune telling.

You seem to be omitting a fairly significant detail.
'Man's greatest treasure' indeed.

Or equal dry.] It's after a saying, actually. Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure - not that I expect you to know what it is. [The saying. Or wit.]

Are witches on your Earth still biologically human or do you possess a biological difference?

Biologically still human. There are wizards as well, I should've specified - it's not limited to a single gender, to better put it.

What are the rules about secrecy?
( and she supposes in fairness she should give something back )
Call me Number One. I've spent many years travelling the stars and seeing many different planets. Including Earth.
video
They're a long set of rules that the wizarding world developed to stay a secret from those who are not magic. Mostly they were develop as a result of the witch trials of Salem. If I were talking about this in my world, I'd get arrested.
[But talking about it was the first habit she adopted, rebel that she is.]
It's always nice to know that Earth rings a bell to - wait, are you also from the future?

Ah - yes. We do actually. But the hats are for official matters only, and brooms are ridden mostly for sport.
