[Ooh, comfy. Not metal or wood though, huh... Definitely cool. Maybe Rembrandt can teach him how to make furniture appear out of nowhere, that'd be neat.]

Excellent taste, then. [goth aesthetic is best aesthetic] As for your question... Well, there isn't nearly as much of a difference between them here as there is in my world. "Magic" requires a conduit - a spell tome or staff, typically - and is channeled, while abilities are something innate that don't require any sort of casting.

[A pause and then he shrugs.]

At least, that's how I've defined it back home. Things are quite a bit different here. Illusio should technically be considered magic, but it doesn't require a cast. That's not to mention any of the other worlds, with vastly different methods of utilizing magic, if it even exists in the first place.

[...this is a really long-winded reply to say "idk man".]

I'm curious if you differentiate between them any.
