Hello Travelers,

In your opinion, what's the best type of illusion?

((ooc: WOOOOOH, ??? is officially LEVEL 3 for Telepathy! This is as close to a personal celebration post as it can get since he's a paranoid brat who doesn't like to talk about personal things. Unless he's tired.

Dorm internet's still crappy. Pardon the slow-ness.))

[She had started to catch the idea that her font choice might have been recognizable. She switched to another and tossed her reply in an anonymous fashion. For a moment, she felt some of her old paranoia kicking in, enough to keep her from being too terribly obvious with this one.

Perhaps it was the fact that illusions used to be her forte.]

The sort that the person wants to believe. They will do half the work for you.

I would think most good illusions would be set up that way, but would be the best?

[Too general for his tastes, and this is coming from an illusion.]

[samantha_grey]

It depends upon the viewer, but to me the thing that is desired the most is never a thing that is believable. People disbelieve those things, even when they possess them in their very hands. We cannot comprehend having what it is that we truly desire.

To me, the finest illusion is of the soul's worst fear, the fear that is deep enough within them that they have not personally accepted that it even exists. Something so primordial that it afflicts not their mental process, but the sub-processes that occur in the medula, regulating breathing and heart-rate. Something which causes the person, afflicted by fear, to be enraptured in their own fears to the culmination of the experience.

[In reality, she'd hated that spell. She'd had a lesser version of just that trick, and it had been a cruel, vicious illusion, one that could make the body damage itself without knowing it. She'd only used it once or twice for a reason, but in the end, there were far more perfect versions of it.]

[.........Wow, Euri. Good thing you gained 999+ respect points beforehand or you'd be in the negatives at the moment.]

How so?

[occulthymns]

[Psh, so picky.]

I mean visual illusions. Those can be really pretty.

Whatever you want. It's an open question.

[corona]

Why are you asking?

[Permanent Filtered Anon Text]

[key_illusion]

Because I feel like it.

[imhome]

Do you have the power of creating illusions?

[begrudged]

I don't really know if I like the idea of illusions at all.

[Sob, Painwheel, you break his nonexistent data-heart.]

Depends on the illusion. [Even he knows from Roxas' experiences that illusions like virtual realities really do suck.] What about magic tricks?

[begrudged]

I'm okay with the magic part. It's the trick part that I don't like.

I'd prefer none.

This wasn't a question based on whether you want them or not.

[argyria]

You asked an opinion and I gave it to you. There is no best type.

[ ᴛᴇxᴛ. ]

[refute]

I think a better question would be why you want to know. Unless you are plotting something, many would find this topic questionable at most. Perhaps even suspicious.

[Permanent Anon Text]

[key_illusion]

Do you think I really care if people think it's questionable and/or suspicious? The answer is no.

As for why I'm asking, I was merely curious. Whether people respond or not is up to them.

[ ᴛᴇxᴛ. ]

[refute]

You may be 'merely curious', but are you aware that being curious can be quite dangerous? If you pry too deep, nothing good ever comes out of it. It is as the expression says; curiosity killed the cat.

The subtle type, of course.

[key_illusion]

Why?

[deputychief]

The type with layers.

How so? Like a puzzle? [Mostly his mind is going towards system sectors...which aren't really illusions, so he's becoming side-tracked.]
