After looking for a few seconds, Castalle points out the pikachu doll about a foot behind where Mitsuki was standing - somethign that could easily be chalked up to her wind experiments.
"Alright, I guess that makes sense. Anyway...Evocation is magic used for offense, attacking and stuff. I don't think you'll need to rely on it as much as I had to, but it's useful if you run into a thief or pervert on the subway." Mitsuki's mind wanders to what kind of things Castalle had to have dealt with in order to need to master attacking spells.
"Alteration is the magic that changes things - mostly for altering how things look. If you wanted to you could turn yourself into a high school beauty queen with a quick wish, although I reckon when you do get into high school you won't need magic to pull that off. Mentalism is stuff that works on a person's mind. Telepathy, illusions, even wiping someone's memories and personality. Wasn't my strong suit but you may be better suited to it. Last is charms, but it's kind of a misnomer. We used to call them 'curses'."
That word sends a brief shiver up Mitsuki's spine. Was she going to need to curse people?
"It's not as ominous as it sounds. Most of it is just affecting random chance, giving people good or bad luck. Again, I didn't have much a use for it but you could. Now that you know what they all do, which do you want to work with first?"
The power to change her looks, read people's minds, attack, or change luck...it almost boggles the girl's mind that she could do all that. Still, she had to choose somethign to start with...

Mitsuki picks up and brushes off the pikachu. "I'm sorry I dropped you," Mitsuki says to the pikachu while brushing some of the dirt off of him and huggles him in her arms again. She then begins to think over what Castalle had just explained. 'This sounds more and more like Harry Potter or Rosario+Vampire's Ruby and Yukari with what's given. I wonder if a wand would be more convenient than this staff...'
Continuing to ponder, Mitsuki finally gives in to her urge just to see how Castalle would respond. "Rictusempra!" Mitsuki shouts pointing her staff and directing a large gust of wind in Castalle's general direction.
Castalle, was stunned. Not by the effects of the supposed stunning spell, but by how Mitsuki was acting. Sure she had a lot of different kinds of magic at her disposal but there was somethign to be said for tact and self-discipline; even for a pre-teen girl.
"Can we please focus?" Castalle said dryly. "I understand that it may seem weird, but I have a theory - if we had wands it would be too easy to just run around and cast whatever and not fear reprecussion. With the staff, if you do something in public it's bloody obvious. Now, do you want to learn about this stuff or are you just trying to get a peek up my skirt?"
The blonde girl doesn't seem too amused with the stunt, and given that she's likely the only one who knows how to (eventually) get them out of this crazy dream, it would be a bad idea to piss her off too much.

"Hmmm... I guess that just goes to show how much I stink with this right now.... That blast of wind was suppose to have enough force to bowl you over... and I was hoping that you'd demonstrate how to block it instead of just letting it hit you head on... Or did I put enough force into it and you magically deflected it because you're you and you're just that good?" Mitsuki rambles.
"And I am focusing! I was trying to attack you as a show of initiative!" Mitsuki emphasizes by jiggling the pikachu up and down in an excited manner. "I am only fumbling with the wind I guess. I read in a fantasy novel once that it takes a lot of force and pressure to move even the smallest amount of wind, so does that apply here too?"
"Main reason? It's because you've had access to magic to all of 30 minutes. I've had it for 3 years. Plus, it would take hurricane force winds to knck even a normal person down, to say nothing of someone who can manipulate the wind as well."
That makes perfect sense, Mitsuki concedes silently. Still there's a lot of things to cover, and just screwing around to be funny won't help matters any.
"So unless you have a real pressing interest in mastering one of these other branches of magic from the get-go, I'm just gonna do things in order. Got a problem with that?"

"There's an order to this?" Mitsuki asks. "Like easy to hard? Vice versa? Or are you going to start from the beginning beginning like with a history lesson?"
'Yeesh, if there was a beginning beginning, then she should have started there in the first place.' Mitsuki thinks a bit peeved at Castalle's attitude about her enthusiasm. 'At least I hit her with wind and not a lightning bolt. Maybe I should have gone with the lightning bolt. That would have made her deflect it. But then if I took her by surprise it might have killed her too since I don't have the best control yet either, so that would have been bad...'
"There isn't an easiest or hardest school, per se. Just you didn't have any preference on order so I'll go about them in the order I want to." Proving that she can act like a child too, Castalle sticks her tongue out at Mitsuki, much to her displeasure.
"First thing I'm gonna show you is alteration - basically taking somethign and making it look different. As a general rule, the more detailed the alteration, the harder it's going to be. However, the more familiar you are with what you want to turn it into, the easier it'll be. You want a visual demonstration or do you think you have it?"

"Demonstration onegei shimasu!" Mitsuki exclaims interested to see what Castalle will do next.
Mitsuki wonders to herself while waiting for Castalle's tutelage, 'Is Castalle going to turn grass into food or maybe make pikachu bigger? Or maybe she'll magically change her clothes. It'd be cool if she did like Erza from Fairy Tail and could change her clothes outfits at a time. Though I don't think I would care for that since I'm not into the latest and greatest fashion like those snooty ojou-sama at school. If I could use this power to poke holes in their clothes though, then it'd have possibilities. That'd at least make the time at school go by more quickly...'
Castalle has a twinkle in her eye, the kind of look that lets you KNOW that she's up to something. rolling the red marble between her fingers, the blonde witch nods and takes a step back, before saying two words that Mitsuki really should have seen coming.
"Set Up!"
A bright flash of light forced Mitsuki to turn away from the effects of the spell, but when it dies down (and it did so quickly, she notes) she will see that not only did Castalle change her wardrobe, but her body had been transformed as well. Her formerly green eyes became a dark blue, her short blonde hair now a bright auburn red, tied up in twintails. As for the actual clothes...there was no way Mitsuki wouldn't recognize the barrier jacket of the Ace of Aces.
Castalle had, with one seemingly basic spell, had transformed herself into a teenage Takamachi Nanoha.
"Fashion isn't somethign I care a lot about - but cosplay is. You have no idea how useful this school of magic can be for conventions. Of course you may wanna start with something small, just change your clothes to something else you own - a school uniform, perhaps. Up to you, I guess."
It dawned on the girl just how much power she actually had at her fingertips, and she was itching to attempt to mimic the older mage's feat. Of course, she was still a novice so one ahould advocate some caution...

"That looks cool! How'd you do it?" Mitsuki jumps about excitedly.
'Hmmmm... I didn't think about the cosplay possibilities. Now I wouldn't have to go to Akihabara to get outfits anymore! Or have to slave over a cosplay outfit ever again! I can get figures with all the money I'd save! $.$'
In retrospect, it was kind of obvious. But it was still hard to beleive that with such a simple spell Castalle could change everything about her, and have everything come out so flawlessly - Mitsuki was well-versed in the subject matter and couldn't find a thread or gem out of place, from the girl's jacket all the way down to the thigh-high socks and sneaker-like shoes.
"If you're done drooling..." Castalle interrupts, twirling the metal staff in her hands effortlessly. "I'd like to see if you learned anything. It doesn't have to be as flashy or as big a change as I did but a simple wardrobe change should be enough to show you figured out what you're doing. Any questions?"

"Well, here goes nothing then," Mitsuki shrugs and begins to focus her power onto her pikachu in an attempt to make it into a copy of her larger pillow at home. After a bit of magical swirling in the air, the pikachu plumps up and becomes a replica of the one she had at home. "Yatta!" Mitsuki exclaims as her first try at this alteration business seemed to have worked out alright.
"Do I have to keep on feeding it power for it to stay this way and not to turn back? Or do I have to will it back into it's original form for it to revert?" Mitsuki asks as she hugs her enlarged pikachu. "I guess that's a good question, so I don't turn into a pumpkin at midnight or something."
"Once you've changed something, it'll stay that way until you will it to change into something different. Don't need to feed it, unless you turned it into an animal. And you won't be able to do that for a long time, so don't get any ideas."
It's almost as if Castalle is reading Mitsuki's mind.
"And yes, I am reading your mind. Which brings me to the next topic: mentalism. You might have guessed but this deals with spells that affect the mind. Illusions, mind reading, that sort of thing. It's not a very showy branch of magic but it can save your butt if you're smart about it. Anything you wanna know or do you want to try right now?"
Mitsuki frowned. She wouldn't get any feedback as to whether or not her magic was working...but she could trust her abilities, they'd gotten her this far.

"So it's the good old Jedi mind trick? You just kind of put something into the person's head and they see it? Is this an illusionary pikachu?" Mitsuki asks while holding up her pillow.
Going for another try at alteration, Mitsuki decides to change the color of her shirt to a yellow one with a pikachu face on it. She concentrates for a while hoping to get the right feel for altering her shirt and not making her body pikachu designed too. When she finally releases her will upon the shirt it does as she says and simply changes color and design.
"Neat," Mitsuki says, "does it work if I try to change the color of your clothes too?"
"Probably not. With stuff like clothes or other items it shouldn't be any problem, but if you're trying to target someone, or something they have on them or are holding then the spell will be resisted and, unless you're a powerful enough witch, negated.
In short, don't try to alter another person or anything on that person. It probably wont end well."
It's good to know, but at the same time Mitsuki has other thigns she should be attending too...like trying to get inside Castalle's head.

In a secret attempt to see the answers she seeks, Mitsuki decides to follow the telepathic link Castalle had established with her to hear Castalle's thoughts.
'So can I think what I want you to hear into your head now? Or should I be asking for directions and permission into your head before diving right in? Whoever thought there would have to be etiquette for these kinds of things...'
However, upon establishing a mental link with Castalle, Mitsuki finds that Castalle has done a thing or two to stop just anyone who wants inside from waltzing in to take a peek at all her secrets.
"Nice try though. Still, you get it, and that's good." Mitsuki can hear castalle's voice - but not with her ears. it's like the voice is coming from inside her mind. Of course since the elder girl's mouth is staying shut, that's probably exactly what's happening.
"For most people, just a little bit of concentration will reveal surface thoughts and general emotions - things that person is thinking about right at that moment. Dig much deeper and they'll get suspicsious. And against another witch...that changes everything. a mage has a natural defense against most mental magic, and unless there's a vast difference of skill a mental duel will likely stalemate.
I probably could crack your mind open like a book, but it really isn't my thing. As for manners...if you just want to send a mental message, that's fine. It's doing any reading or digging that you really should ask first, since you'd need a willing or unconscious subject to get any farther down."
The whole thing reminds Mitsuki of that one American movie, and for some reason she felt she should be holding on to a top or something. Still, if she doesn't understand something she should speak up.

'So what's next?' Mitsuki mentally sends the message to Castalle's head. 'If you're already in my head, do I need to try and send it to you?' Mitsuki decides to see if she can paint Castalle a picture of the eclair she had for dessert last night.
'And then I guess there's the question of can you teach me how to protect myself from other mental mages so they don't just go in there and read my every hope, dream and fear?' Mitsuki then begins picturing a gruesome scene in her head taken from one of the guro pictures she'd seen on iichan the other night.
"as far as I can tell mages are incredibly rare. I mean, I more or less got dragged into my powers, cardcaptor sakura style. You on the other hand...you hit the genetic lottory - you were born with these abilities. So I wouldn't worry about defending yourself from a mental attack. Chances are it'll be at least 10 years before you run into another witch, and that's being optimistic."
that does make mitsuki feel a bit more safe, and a bit more confident as well. Still, she had a lot more to learn.
"so...the other half of mentalism is illusion spells - projecting the image of something that isn't there. Get good enough at it and there's no telling the tricks you can pull...just don't be stupid about it, ok?
I suppose you're gonna want to see this in action as well?"

Deciding to take a leap into the unknown without Castalle's instruction or demonstration, Mitsuki begins to pull together the image of a basic wooden table and chairs with a giant teddy bear sitting in one of the chairs. To Mitsuki's amazement, after a long while of concentration and effort, a table, chairs and bear appeared, but then as soon as she stopped concentrating, the image disappeared.
'Okay, maybe you better do another demonstration. You have to give me points for trying without knowing where to start though~'
"I gotta say, props for effort. Of course this kind of magic is sorta self-explanatory, so there wasn't too much room for you to screw it up. And there is one thing that you need to remember for next time. Even the strongest illusion in the world can be shattered as long as the target is able to disbelieve the image. If you're confident enough I could demonstrate...but it could go pear-shaped real quick. Your call."
While Mitsuki was confident, something in the back of her mind gave her the chills. If only she could find out what illusion she'd be subjected to before it happened - it might give her a little time to prepare herself...

Concentrating with all her might, Mitsuki begins to form the shape of a small rock in her hand behind the pikachu she still coddles. All the while feeling out Castalle's general presence in her mind and placing her new independent thoughts in a separate part of her mind. Mitsuki then begins tossing the rock up and down in her hand to get a feel for maintaining an illusion of such a small thing. Castalle looks at Mitsuki wondering what in the world she's doing.
"Well, did you still want a demonstration? Or are you going to stand there playing with that rock?" Castalle asks a bit petulantly.
Mitsuki catches her illusory rock and casts it in Castalle's general direction before taking her mind off of it to make the image disappear in mid-flight.
"I see young grasshopper. That was even good enough to fool me." Castalle smirks as her eyes begin to twinkle slyly. "I think I know just what to do for you next."
"Show off..." Castalle shoots back with a smirk. "In hindsight that was probably a lot safer than what I had in mind. Got the point across too. Now, these last two branches are kinda tough to demonstrate, it's more of a surreal thing. Evocation is attacking and offense magic - mostly for non-elemental stuff. Charms or curses is even more of a mixed bag, because luck is very hard to show or explain. Which do you wanna try first?"
While Mitsuki was still riding the high from her last endeavor, she knew there was more for her to do.
Not that she cared that much at the moment.

"By attacking does that mean summoning things to attack for me like Saber or Archer? Or will I have to do the attacking myself with magical attacks like Divine Buster?" Mitsuki asks in an excited manner bobbing the pikachu pillow up and down as she goes.
'Or there's always that lightning we called forth earlier. I'm sure if I can conjure lightning a Chun-Li fireball wouldn't be farfetched either. Maybe I can summon Luffy or Ichigo or Naruto to fight for me. Kyaa! What a wonderful thing that would be. Or I could have my staff turn into my own magical sword like Nietono no Shana or Hyourinmaru. But who the hell am I attacking?'
"well...mostly it's magical attacks of various ranges. Your lightning shooting abilities can be used for attacking but it's not your only weapon. As for summoning people or things to fight for you, that's out of wind's preview. Even if it wasn't, good luck having enough magic to actually pull it off."
While the inability to summon an idol was dissapointing, she was apparently able to create magical wave-motion guns, even if they weren't necessarily pink.
"as for your target..." with a simple handwave, Castalle took a swath of overgrown grass, fashioning it midair into a decent sized target, which floated on the wind a good 25 meters downrange.
"while I'm sure you could bolt it out of existence, I wanna see you do something with a bit more...energy behind it, if you can manage."

In short, don't try to alter another person or anything on that person. It probably wont end well."

'So can I think what I want you to hear into your head now? Or should I be asking for directions and permission into your head before diving right in? Whoever thought there would have to be etiquette for these kinds of things...'
However, upon establishing a mental link with Castalle, Mitsuki finds that Castalle has done a thing or two to stop just anyone who wants inside from waltzing in to take a peek at all her secrets.

"For most people, just a little bit of concentration will reveal surface thoughts and general emotions - things that person is thinking about right at that moment. Dig much deeper and they'll get suspicsious. And against another witch...that changes everything. a mage has a natural defense against most mental magic, and unless there's a vast difference of skill a mental duel will likely stalemate.
I probably could crack your mind open like a book, but it really isn't my thing. As for manners...if you just want to send a mental message, that's fine. It's doing any reading or digging that you really should ask first, since you'd need a willing or unconscious subject to get any farther down."
The whole thing reminds Mitsuki of that one American movie, and for some reason she felt she should be holding on to a top or something. Still, if she doesn't understand something she should speak up.

'And then I guess there's the question of can you teach me how to protect myself from other mental mages so they don't just go in there and read my every hope, dream and fear?' Mitsuki then begins picturing a gruesome scene in her head taken from one of the guro pictures she'd seen on iichan the other night.

that does make mitsuki feel a bit more safe, and a bit more confident as well. Still, she had a lot more to learn.
"so...the other half of mentalism is illusion spells - projecting the image of something that isn't there. Get good enough at it and there's no telling the tricks you can pull...just don't be stupid about it, ok?
I suppose you're gonna want to see this in action as well?"

'Okay, maybe you better do another demonstration. You have to give me points for trying without knowing where to start though~'

While Mitsuki was confident, something in the back of her mind gave her the chills. If only she could find out what illusion she'd be subjected to before it happened - it might give her a little time to prepare herself...

"Well, did you still want a demonstration? Or are you going to stand there playing with that rock?" Castalle asks a bit petulantly.
Mitsuki catches her illusory rock and casts it in Castalle's general direction before taking her mind off of it to make the image disappear in mid-flight.
"I see young grasshopper. That was even good enough to fool me." Castalle smirks as her eyes begin to twinkle slyly. "I think I know just what to do for you next."

While Mitsuki was still riding the high from her last endeavor, she knew there was more for her to do.
Not that she cared that much at the moment.

'Or there's always that lightning we called forth earlier. I'm sure if I can conjure lightning a Chun-Li fireball wouldn't be farfetched either. Maybe I can summon Luffy or Ichigo or Naruto to fight for me. Kyaa! What a wonderful thing that would be. Or I could have my staff turn into my own magical sword like Nietono no Shana or Hyourinmaru. But who the hell am I attacking?'

While the inability to summon an idol was dissapointing, she was apparently able to create magical wave-motion guns, even if they weren't necessarily pink.
"as for your target..." with a simple handwave, Castalle took a swath of overgrown grass, fashioning it midair into a decent sized target, which floated on the wind a good 25 meters downrange.
"while I'm sure you could bolt it out of existence, I wanna see you do something with a bit more...energy behind it, if you can manage."
