[There was a lot of pilfered alcohol, fumbled attempts, and finally resignation that had led to this video. Jessica wasn't great at asking for help, or showing that she didn't know what was going on, but this was so far out of her paygrade, she had no idea where to start. She'd poked around the library, but there were things that she couldn't learn there. Not really.

So the network is treated to a semi-annoyed looking dark-haired woman that some might find familiar. The introduction was minor.]

The name's Jessica Jones and I'm looking for- fuck -help with something. I can do this now-

[She'd never been one to shy away from showing what she could do or trying to hide it. She'd always been one of the more open freaks. But like she'd said to Spheeris, people felt safer when they could pretend they didn't know.

So for the camera, she made a fist with her right hand. A small line of concentration creased the middle of her brow and then - Woosh - a sword made of pure fire appeared in her hand. She didn't drop it, though she did flinch because that was never not going to be disturbing. She waved it around a bit. It looked a little like a scimitar, flaring white hot in the center. Then she opened her hand and it disappeared.]

-and that's great and all, but I don't know shit about swords or weapons or anything.

[She was doing an amazing job of not looking like that freaked her out.]

Who's gonna help me figure out how not to slice my other arm off?

Well, you never know. Just wait and see. Or ask. Maybe someone else here can help, or the gods can if you ask them.

The gods can magic shit up. Why can't I magic shit up?

[keybearing]

Because we aren't gods? We have some powers but nothing like what they can do.

[Even while he learned magic and to use the Keyblade back home, he knew the Gods were probably on a whole other level. Especially after meeting Zeus and Herc. Hades....well, Sora managed to defeat him too, but still.]

[And they were back to the gods topic again. She sighed and shook her head.]

This has been fun and all, kid, but I'm going to go... do stuff now. Thanks for the offer, but I really hope it doesn't come down to me needing to have a teenager show me how not to kill myself.

[keybearing]

You -- ah, okay. I just hope you figure it out.

[Until next time? But she really shouldn't be too hung up about it. Given some of Sora's teachers back home....]

[assholic]

[Until next time. They lived in the same city, after all. And maybe he'd see her attempting to badly spar and laugh.

A quick wave, and Jessica turned the feed off.]
