[X] Talk with Tamiko's uncle.
-[X] Do you mean Ghost form, when you're talking about my special magic? Ghost Sword would be cool!
--[X] Actually, about Ghost Form. Do you think it's possible for me to use it and still be awake? Maybe some lucid dreaming technique?
-[X] Sorry for personal question, but... Do you know there is some magic in you? Could it be Cathy? Could it be love spell?
"When you say enchanting my weapon with my own special magic… Do you mean like when I dream?" you ask while nonchalantly materializing your greatsword next to you. It embeds itself to the ground, sticking out for you to grab at a moment's notice. You turn slightly to give it a quick, appraising look. "I think a ghost sword would be quite interesting."
"Unfortunately, that's not exactly what I had in mind," the man tells you, but doesn't get any further before you continue your musings.
"Oh, actually, I also meant to ask about that," you say, eyes travelling up towards the sky. "Last time miss Catherine suggested lucid dreaming, but I fear my progress is quite slow there, despite finding some guides already. Do you think there's something else I could do, mister Higekino? Or maybe even somehow do that while being awake?"
The man sighs and lets his shoulders sag a little before he answers you. "Spectral formes are not exactly my area of expertise, I'm afraid," he says, looking like he's going over something in his mind. "That said, I do believe it might be possible to do something like that even while awake. Your magic is fueled by your dreams, no? The best I can suggest to you is to try and bridge it with daydreaming, and continue from there if it works."
You nod in response. He doesn't have much to give for specifics, but you can understand what he means there.
"Now, did you have anything else you wished to ask?"
Ah, right. Perhaps this might be as good time as any… "Hmm, yes, I was also wondering about something else," you begin, dragging out your words a bit as you focus your gaze on the man before you. "I apologize if it's a personal question, mister Higekino, but I've noticed that you have magic around you."
His eyebrows rise up in response. He's actually surprised by your perceptiveness, and you decide to tell him as much.
"Do you know what it could be about? You certainly look surprised," you wonder coyly. "Perhaps it's a spell from miss Catherine? Perhaps even-"
"I'm going to cut you off right there, miss Verrier," the man cuts you off with an amused laugh. "It's true that I'm probably coated in some sort of magical aura, but it's all on me."
This time it's you who's taken aback as you blink in surprise. "Um, how come?"
There's a small flash of pink light. As if on cue, the sword next to you twists on the ground and shoots into the air towards the man. He catches it from the pommel with a smooth movement of his hand, and you stare as thin strands of pink light shooting from his fingertips vanish from the blade's surface. "Incidentally, it's a very elegant design you have on your weapon," he notes with a smile.
"...How did you do that?"
"Magic," he says, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "Duh."
You walked right into that one, though you refuse to admit it out loud.

For the record, Auntcle is taking the rare chance to troll Ariane as much as she can there.
