[Written // Filtered from Aku, Kefka, and Yuber
According to Miss Sage's guide, it seems that it may be possible for anyone to learn different kinds of magic from the Filial spirits. I hadn't given it much thought, as I'm quite comfortable with my own abilities. However, it would be beneficial to expand my abilities, to cover the bases that I lack.
For example, it's come to my attention that Aku is only vulnerable to the light or "holy" element. Therefore, learning the magic from Hyt would be useful…so it's unfortunate that he is also the most difficult spirit to contact. It's not surprising, really. Light is different from any other element, as it's usually associated with a divine figure of sorts. Learning how to heal would also be useful…but because it doesn't work outside the barrier, it'd be useless when fighting the Third Party.
These Filial spirits…are they worth it?
And trying to teach non-combatants how to fight…will that be worth it? Unless they happen to be extremely fast learners, I don't see it working out.

[Jay can be found sitting against the back of the C3 building. It's pouring rain, but the tall building mostly keeps him dry…mostly. He's staring up at the sky, remaining as still as possible, listening for any sort of spirit. Unfortunately, he's not exactly sure what he's supposed to listen for. All he hears is the pelting of the rain, and the loud cracking of thunder.]

So-- you don't find healing useful because you never know if your healing an enemy? What if you were the only one on hand when someone was returned from a kidnapping-- and you could save a life? What if it was a child?
I can't think of a reason that healing wouldn't be worth learning.

[The thoughts cloud Jay's mind. There are plenty of healers here; what difference would he make? Would he even be capable? He really hoped he wouldn't come across an injured child...even if he did, he'd have far better luck calling for a real healer rather than trying to heal the child himself...]

I spend plenty of time outside.
