[ It's been a long few days. Not nearly as long as it was for those on the draft -- a fact of which she is keenly aware -- but her heart feels so sore. Miyabi is dead, Kairi returned with a broken leg, Elicia reverted back to a little girl and left her that message that was so bittersweet... She feels a powerful need to find Nami and Sanji, to talk to both of them, but ... that ... maybe that should wait. Until she can look at them without crying... and comfort them, instead of being a burden. In the meantime, she needs to focus on something else -- actually put her energy into something useful.
An idea has been brewing in her mind for some time. And all of this mess -- all the pain and the fighting -- and Luke, coming to her just days before with a request -- has finally prompted her to act on it.
In her room there are quite a lot of books. They vary widely in subject, but there is one solid section dedicated entirely to medical texts, ranging wildly in their complexity. Teaching herself has been difficult; basic first aid is all well and good until you have to use it in an emergency situation, and anything beyond that...
Well. You just can't learn everything from a book. She knows that... has known for a long while she probably needed to do something like this. So when she opens up the journal, turning on the video function, she looks pensive.... but also quite serious. ]
Are there any doctors in the village who'd be willing to take on a student? I -- I know some magic methods of healing, but ... [ She shakes her head. ] I want to learn the real thing. I promise I'll work hard. Really hard. This means a lot to me.
[ A beat. ] And, if ... anyone in the village would like to learn some healing magic... [ She's already been teaching Haruhi, and now Luke. ] ... I'd like to help. I know some magic from my own world, plus I've got a lot of practice with Nala.
[ After that, a thought occurs to her. ]

Can I ask you something?

How about... your place? Or mine. Any place, really.
[Voice]
[Voice]
Fifty-six. Right in front of the barracks, you can't miss it.
[Voice]
Okay. I'll be there in a few minutes. Be ready! [ ... with what, or why, she doesn't say. She just shuts the journal. ]

[Action]
Hey, welcome. Make yourself comfy. [He goes to plop down in one one of the couches in the living room area.]
[Action]
Jerk.She smiles and heads on in. Ooooh, stone floors. Neato. She'll sit on whatever couch is nearest him -- not the same one -- and look at him somewhat thoughtfully. ]
Whenever you're ready. But you won't get it right away, so don't get frustrated, okay?
[Action]
Hey, it's not my first time learning something. I know that. [Except he's kind of awesome and a quick learner, so he totally expect to get it in one sitting.]

[ The first thing she does is demonstrate a Cure spell. Obviously it has no target, but her hands glow green as she holds them up. Between them, too, is a gentle green light. ]
It's basically just energy. It took me a long time to work my way up to having a lot of casts of all my spells. It's sort of similar to the way you build stamina, when you exercise. Just a different kind of energy. You have to think of which spell you want, and focus on what you want it to do. Once you get good at it, you won't have to do that second part. It'll just come naturally. But it helps at first.
[Action]
[Veeery interesting.]
[Action]
... she couldn't really deny him that. It isn't what she signed up for, but it's fair, and Sokka is her friend. She nods. ] Yeah. It would get easier after the first spell you learned, too.
[Action]
Interesting... well, anyway, continue.
