So it was true. She had heard about people wanting to use void dust as being a little dense or messed up in the head, but this confirmed it rather well. The girl wanted to ‘learn’ about it and divine dust to figure out something about someone from her past, that much she could discern. She had a weapon on her at this very moment that she thought used it. Aside from memory, she produced no applicable evidence of this individual’s experiments. The only way to figure out what they had been doing, or what they had wanted to do, was completely lost save for that memory. The trail was cold, and the only way to figure out what their goal was would be to either somehow recall this person’s thought process or conduct the experiments herself.
For some reason, the most humorous thing in this entire story was not that the girl failed to realize this, but that she had skipped right over anything noteworthy on how many could actually utilize Divine dust with any proficiency. To her knowledge, there wasn’t a person alive who was, and even if they were, they were probably some unfathomably well-disciplined individual when it came to dust. She was fairly certain Professor Deshantis skipped over it in favor of covering more about Void dust in her class, citing some ‘no one in this room will ever have the skill to use this to its fullest extent’ as the reason. She frankly laughed a bit at the girl’s defense. It was comical, really.
If the girl honestly thought she could follow the trail she was trying to follow without touching Void dust itself – without any notes, at that – she may as well not be trying. If she thought she could prevent something from happening without having the faintest idea of what was coming, her efforts would be laughable. And if for one moment, she thought her behavior wouldn’t go unrecognized, it would be in fairly poor taste on her end. At least Guinevere could report her to restrict her access to the books so she didn’t end up down a dark alleyway somewhere in Setek looking to get more Powder.
And so she turned the page, continuing her leisurely reading.
(OOC: Yeah, well unless Amethyst responds to the laugh/chuckle here, I think it's basically done.)
