Dear Gowther, I am tired of being a boring magic-less human. How can I become more awesome like you as nd the other Sins?

Dear human,

You can do nothing to alter your genetic make up. If you are a human that is what you shall remain, unless you find some way of taking the fountain of youth from Ban.

When you say the Sins and I are awesome I presume you are referring to our power levels and abilities. The man masquerading as the Grand Master of Liones was correct when he said that power is a combination of will and experience. If you are diligent you may unlock some kind of power. I can only suggest you keep trying until you are too old and exhausted to keep going.

Merlin is looking at me strangely as if I have done something wrong...

Dear Gowther, My boyfriend is a horrible cook but he thinks he's amazing. What should I do, or should I keep swallowing it down with watery eyes and a fake smile?

Dear Anon,

I do not understand your problem. Logic tells us that if your boyfriend’s cooking is sub-par it will remain so unless you tell him otherwise. Without feedback he will continue to produce repasts of the same quality. I cannot see why you would not just tell him so. What is stopping you from explaining to him just how terrible his cooking is?

... I see. Merlin has explained that to hear that criticism might hurt one’s feelings. I do not understand why. If you cannot cook you cannot cook. There is no point in your dissembling. It serves no purpose.

Dear Gowther, How do I make nachos?

I am not sure I understand the question. Nachos are not something I am familiar with. Is it some sort of craft? I have trawled through every book in my library in The Boar Hat and have found no reference to “nachos” so I will conclude they do not exist...

Please excuse me, Ban is making that funny noise at the back of his throat and his fangs are showing. This is a behaviour I have sometimes observed when he is talking to the Captain. I believe it is what Ban does when he wishes to indicate that he is amused.

Very well, Ban has explained to me that nachos are essentially a food item. Given this my advice to you is to go and locate a recipie book which contains revelant instructions for making nachos. Either that or find Ban, he seems to be confident that he is able to make this particular dish. So is the Captain but based on the way my comrades look when they have ingested the food he prepares I would say it would be in your best interests to stay away from his cooking.

Hi! I am not sure this is a good idea but Merlin says I should engage more with other individuals to find out how normal people think. Please send me problems and I will proffer valuable advice.
