* CallingYourAttacks: Discussed, deconstruxted, then reconstructed in the same conversation. While training with Andromeda in "10,000 Years", Lightning calls out "LIGHTNING BLAST!". Andromeda, unamused, points out that magic does require an incantation, but saying it out loud is impractical in battle; it only provides an opportunity for your opponent to dodge the attack, then strike you down. The best way to cast a spell, according to her, is to think it, or if one must say the name out loud, whisper it. The latter technique is show to be powerful but not as effective when Lightning tries it, and the former takes time to master properly.
