Hello everyone. My name is Julius Visconti.
Allow me to take this opportunity to formally thank all of you. I was held in prison for some time along with some others. I understand how much trouble you went through just to aid us.
There isn't a lot I can do to repay the favor. For that I apologize.
[He bows his head down in apology.]
I promise that I'll work even harder from now. [It's the least he can do around here. Julius isn't going to waste his time.]
On another note, I'd like to ask you all a question.
What do you know about magic? I've been intrigued by its concept and origins for some time, yet I hardly know anything. Magic is a difficult thing for me to grasp. I'd appreciate it if we could sit down and discuss it in detail.

[Her concern is only normal! Julius doesn't exactly go around telling everyone what his ability is, but he feels that Sakura deserves to know.]
Do your Clow Cards require some training to use?
no subject
[After all, blood loss can be pretty serious sometimes, depending on how much is lost. But he obviously now has more experience with it and knows his limits, to some extent, from the sounds of it. Which is reassuring but also concerning in it's own way.]
Um, sort of? Kero-chan had to tell me what to say, what to do to seal the cards again. But I have the hang of it now. I've memorized what to say, and then I just....tell them what I want them to do.
no subject
[Julius won't use something so troublesome. There's no point in taking unnecessary risks after all. ]
You command magic with your mind and voice. It's something you had to accept and grow accustomed to. Wasn't that difficult to do?
[It doesn't sound simple to say the least...]
no subject
[That sort of thing only really seems useful in combat, so Sakura can figure for now without seeing it and imagining other uses.]
I guess I never really....thought about it. I was just doing what I had to, to keep everyone safe. But Kero-chan said if I hadn't had even the potential, I wouldn't have been able to open the book of Clow to let the cards out in the first place. It did get easier the more cards I sealed.
no subject
I don't know magic, but back home I was an instructor. Can I some teach you important life skills you might need?
no subject
[Back home, she knows she has support from Kero, Tomoyo, Syaoran. She'd manage. Even here, there are those also looking out for her. So she has faith she'll pull through with their help, if things did indeed get more difficult.]
An instructor? Oh, like a teacher? What did you teach?
no subject
When you told me you could transform your staff into a sword I thought I might be able to help. You may pick up some new techniques from me.
[She might even be able to use it during her final test.]
no subject
[If it gives her more ability to potentially help, or simply in defending herself later on, it can't hurt. Pearl's techniques certainly seem rather unique with her seeming to dance.]
no subject
My techniques were intended to be used against monsters. One might show up around these areas. You can never be certain.
[He's not trying to scare her, that's just how it is.]
no subject
[Even if they might hope she doesn't encounter monsters. Better to know how to deal with them when and if that time comes.]
no subject
Of course if you choose to learn from me I'll take your powers into consideration. [It's the least he could do after all.]
no subject
[Though she's still pretty protective of her cards and more tends to use Mirror to try make her family less worried. Toya already knows something is up and can tell the difference between them, but Sakura herself doesn't know that.]
no subject
[That would be impossible..maybe. Even some magic has flaws? Julius wonders how it works in detail.]
no subject
[Even knowing as much as Julius does, he can probably guess Sakura's main use for this particular card.]
no subject
[Yup, he has a small idea.]
I suppose I can give you some suggestions on how you can use it in battle. Combining that with your sword skills even I'd be afraid to stand up against it.
no subject
no subject
How have you been finding your sword training with Pearl so far? I want to see where you stand with your physical build. [Sakura's just a child, but still. She's working out she can probably sprint a few miles.]
no subject
But I have been enjoying my practices with Pearl-san! I guess the best way would be to start practicing with you so you get an idea?
[Because it's kind of hard to describe where she thinks she is at with this. The Sword card can definitely make a difference, but she's also training without it as well in case she might need to improvise too.]
no subject
You had fun last time. [He nods to her words. It's strange to him, he'd never consider this kind of work to be fun since it's necessary for survival. Julius is trying his best to see things from Sakura's perspective too.]
no subject
[She gives a nod of agreement there, ready and willing if it means she can improve. If she can then help more somehow. Could help defend others.]
I did. I do, yes! But I guess...I'm used to this from P.E at school and all, and cheerleading. And with the Cards. It's almost like dancing, when Pearl teaches me, really.
no subject
In the military we have many drills that need you to be fit.
Somehow I feel that cheer leading takes about the same amount of energy and effort.
no subject
I guess they are both pretty tiring and intense. The military must be hard work too! I hear you have to be really fit to join with them, right?
[She figures that must be similar if not the same sort of standards regardless of which country or world, exactly.]
no subject
For some jobs yes, for others not so much. Office jobs are just as important as physical labor ones.
[A military can't be founded on brute strength alone. You can still work there as support instead of a combatant if you aren't physically fit.]
Did they have a lot of secretaries in your school, Sakura?
no subject
[Of course there are all sorts of roles even within the military. It's just most kids, like Sakura, probably think more of those actually out there in the front lines, fighting. The soldiers risking their lives to protect their country, their people.]
no subject
I assume you were a diligent student in class.
