Open~! There is going to be a concert!

Yuna had done this a few times before but each time she hadn't done the foot work. There was a lot to do and she was trying to do it all by herself. Luckily time was one thing that she had in abundance. She ran down the halls with a wide smile looking perhaps a little too happy with paper gripped tightly in her hands. Each one had a hand written notice on it informing them of a concert that will be taking placing on the holodeck. It had specific directions and a time. She wanted to see if she could get everyone to come even though she still have to finish getting the scene together in the holodeck and then make sure she could use her spheres without it getting in the way of what she had in mind.

She stopped everyone in the hall with a wide smile holding out the flyer. "Here! I'm having a concert! You should come!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later in the day she can be found shouting at the holodeck as she tries to get the scene to change according to her memories. To be far the holodeck had no recollection of Spira in its data so she was trying to do it from scratch and it was a lot harder than she had thought. Yuna through her arms down to the sides getting perhaps a little to angry with the machine.

"Come on."

Yuna and technology didn't always mix well and even from the hallway her shouts could be heard.

[ooc: feel free to tag either! I will have a concert posted up in a few weeks as well. :3]

Everything that Merlin mentioned sounded familiar to Yuna though she could help but be curious.

"You can summon things here? Like what?" Her tone was curious but steady her eyes looking up at the woman before her.

"Not summon, make, out of magic." Merlin smirked at her and gestured, reaching into mid-air, and pulling out a small beret, in the brightest of pinks, just her size.

"Like this." he bowed, and handed it to her.

Yuna took the small beret and smiled. "That's amazing. How did you do that?"

She could do a lot of things but they were mostly based on combat. She couldn't create anything so useful. She inspected the beret closer her eyes reflecting her amazement.

"I used magic to scan your head, then used my imagination, plus magic, to create a hat that would fit and look good doing so." Merlin nodded.

"Scan my head?" That was an odd sentience and Yuna wasn't sure what that entailed. She lightly placed the beret on her head feeling how it fit perfectly a top her hair.

"How does it look?"

Yuna was practical but she couldn't help and like clothing. She had a lot of clothing that she kept with her and rarely a chance to wear it.

"The shape of it. I can magically see the entire shape of something, and feel it, as long as the person is close." He nodded to her. "Hence the good-fit." He grinned at her.

"It looks pleasant upon thy brow."

"That makes sense. I wonder if I can do that?" She had been able to sense people's energy's but she hadn't ever tried shapes. Yuna focused for a moment on Merlin's head using his example to fuel her efforts.

"Maybe. I don't see why not." Merlin grinned at her, and relaxed his magical shields, waiting to see if her magic would let her sense his basic head shape. He was curious and the feeling of watching someone stretch their magic was exciting!

She felt her magic reach out, she felt the pulse of his life force and mapped it, outlining his features until she knew its shape. Her eyes slowly opened landing on Merlin curiously.

"I can't make anything but I think, I got it."

Merlin smiled. "Maybe in time. And this, this sort of scan, is also a good step in shapeshifting, allowing one to take on the form of what their magic has touched." He grinned at her.

"So the things you shift into where once people or animals you encountered?" She wasn't sure that she understood what he meant.

Yuna's head tilted to the side her gaze curious as she studied him.

"Some are. Some are just my creations." Merlin grinned. "But it is a good place to start if one wants to shapeshift." He nodded. It took much concentration at first, but it could be done in later years without that.

"Do you think I could turn into a bird?" It might seem like a silly question but more than anything Yuna wanted to be able to fly. To feel a freedom that she wasn't able to feel in Spira.

"Probably. But you should try smaller and more normal things, first. Other people, smaller land-bound animals, should be first. " He waggled a finger at her.

"Like what?" She didn't have the same animals as he did and she didn't want to turn into a chimera or a water flan.

"Cats, dogs, mice." He shifted then, becoming one after another, smoothly, and then back to his male human form.

"If your world has not the same ones, I can become one long enough for you to scan it."

"We have cats and dogs." Though they weren't exactly like what he turned into. Her eyes watched him move, her head moving as he changed heights.

"Could you tell me what I would have to do? To shift?"

"For me, it is knowing the animal with my magic, and feeling it. But also knowing myself, better than most know themselves. Being aware of every part of my body and mind, and then picturing what I want to change into and willing the two images, the two forms to merge, then exchange. " Merlin grinned at her.

"It can take some time to learn it, but it is fun."

That sounded like it would take a fair amount of time though she was used to focusing and channeling so she at least knew how to practice. She took a step forward looking hopefully up into his gaze.

"Would you walk me through it.. just once. I don't think.." She paused looking for for a moment, her hand resting on her chest. "I don't think I've ever been that aware of myself." But she knew she could be taught.

"Of course." He reached out to gently lay a hand on her shoulder, if she should allow. "I would gladly help you." He waved a hand behind him. "Come to the arboretum. We need a place a little quieter and where we can concentrate. If you wish to do it now." He arched an eyebrow.

She didn't mind him resting a hand on her shoulder and she almost jumped as she answered him. "yes!" She paused. "I mean: yes, I'd like to do it now."

Yuna flushed brightly moving the flyers to her hands. She let them rest in her palms for a moment before focusing on them. The papers glow for a moment before vanishing into her spheres.

"I'm ready!"

Merlin smiled. He led her toward the arboretum and nodded as he walked with her. "The biggest thing to remember is to be calm, and to act with confidence. Magic is fueled by will. confidence and sureness help."

He nodded as he headed into the arboretum, and led her to a quiet corner. "First, we want to give you something to change into, so... scan me, from head to toe, just the physical form, with your magic. See how well you can feel my body and what it looks and feels like."

"Right." Yuna nodded. She had been schooled in basic practices when it came to magic and calm concentration. Magic was something that the ex summoner knew and it was easy for her to feel confident about it.

She followed falling in step behind him until they were out of the way and tucked into the small corner. "Is that alright?" She felt like she would be invading his personal space if she scanned his physical form and she wasn't sure if she was ready to turn into a man.

Merlin grinned at her. "It's okay with me, but if you are not comfortable with that, we could try another form, instead. Perhaps a cat?"

He thought she should try a human first, but comfort was important too, so maybe a cat would be better.

"A cat? Alright." That would better for Yuna though she might be a little embarrassed to say so aloud.
