[color=80bb00] "Hmmm.... Well, yeah, I can basically mold into anything I can think of... So long as it's not overly large." [/color] Pix stated, smiling a bit. [color=80bb00] "I guess so, but since I told you a lot about me, why don't you tell me about you?" [/color] She said, sitting on a couch nearby and looking to Solaris expectantly.

 

[Chungus]

Solaris sat down on the couch, on the other end of where Pix sat, and crossed her legs before looking back to Pix. "Well, no matter how you look at it, there isn't a lot to tell. I'm no fighter, and I live a quiet life... So don't expect anything exciting." She stated, then paused. tilting her head slightly. "What would you like to know about?"

 

[DotSlash]

Pix smiled a bit. [color=80bb00] "Something you think is equivalent to all the information I just told you about yourself. I'll probably just keep prodding you for more info if I'm not feeling quite satisfied with it yet." [/color]

 

[Chungus]

"Right..." You won't get anywhere if you do. "Well, as far as combat effectiveness goes; I've had basic self defence training, so I know some hand-to-hand fighting moves. Mostly, this is striking weak points in the body, but I know some moves for disarming an attacker, too. That aside, I know how to handle a pistol, in theory, but I've never fired one. And that's just about it." She explained, then paused for a moment. "More personally, I was born in Central City, the capital of Amestris, and lived there my entire live. I used to be a journalist, but resigned about a year ago. For reasons I won't get in to. Is that about enough to sate your curiousity?"

 

[DotSlash]

Pix tilted her head as she listened to Solaris' little backstory. Afterward, Pix still had her head tilted, looking more than unsatisfied. [color=80bb00] "A journalist? What were the kinds of stories you covered? What kind of place is Amestris? How was magic used there, since you spoke like you knew about it a little earlier?" [/color] She interrogated, face oddly calculating.

 

[Chungus]

"I covered whatever I thought would help me climb the editorial ladder, so big stories, although I shied away from reporting from warzones. The biggest story would have been about a serial killer, targeting speciffic military personel. Although the state wasn't too fond of the idea of that story getting out, so I was shut down." Solaris answered as she returned Pix's gaze, noting her expression. "And Amestris is a country of variation. The nation grew as it almagated neighbouring countries, as such, both the climate and culture is diverse. It's also the world's largest alchemical power, being at the forefront on that area. And I, personally, know nothing of magic. My brother accidently traveled to another dimention not long ago. I heard of it from him after he returned."

As she looked to Solaris, Pix would be hard-pressed to read Solaris, the only notable thing being that her were rather focused on Pix's face.

 

[DotSlash]

[color=80bb00] "So you live in a country built on conquest... Interesting. And what's 'alchemy'? I've never heard of it." [/color] Pix asked next, not seeming all that phased by Solaris' neutral expression. Once Solaris brought up dimension hopping however, she blinked her expression changing from her untrusting look to one of confusion. [color=80bb00] "...Traveled to another dimension? ...So what, is he, like... 2D now?" [/color]

 

[Chungus]

"No, no. Dimensions are other universes, laying besides one another. I don't really understand the specifics, but what I do know, is that you're likely in another dimension right now." Solaris explained, shaking her head lightly before doing so. "And alchemy is the science of reconstructing, and reconstructing matter, otherwise known as transmutation. There are nearly endless fields in which alchemy can be applied, although civilians may only preform more forms of alchemy, and some basic forms are even banned all together."

 

[DotSlash]

Pix blinked and sighed to herself after a while. [color=80bb00] "Jeez... I'm not even in another world, I'm in a different universe...? That... really sucks... not just for me but for everyone here..." [/color] She said a little saddened by the news. [color=80bb00] "Uh.... Isn't moving matter around kind of... dangerous? And how can that be used for other things...?" [/color] She asked, now seeming more curious than anything.

 

[Chungus]

"Yes... It sure does. Our best chance to escape would be to find whatever was used in getting us here, and using it to return us, if this is even possible." Solaris commented, moving her eyes from Pix, and looking up to the ceiling for a few seconds, before looking back. "And, yes. It can be dangerous if an alchemist doesn't know what they're doing, or otherwise make a mistake. Then, a rebound can happen, in which a transmutation horribly backfires, which usually doesn't end well for the alchemist. This is partially the reason why civillians aren't alowed to study some forms of alchemy."

 

[DotSlash]

Pix blinked a bit. [color=80bb00] "....Interesting... Alright, last question: Do you think you could teach something about alchemy?" [/color] She sighed a bit as Solaris looked to the ceiling. [color=80bb00] "Looks like it... How breakable do these walls seem to you...?" [/color] Pix said, her hand beginning to morph form.

 

[Chungus]

"Possibly..." Solaris answered initially. "Hmm... Yes, in theory, I should be able to teach you a few basic things. However, I can't garuantee you'll be able to do it, since you're from an other dimension then myself, and ontop of that, not all forms of alchemy can be practiced by everyone. What may work for one person might not for another." She added, then raised an eyebrow slightly. "Why do you want to learn, however? As for the walls..." Looking towards one of the walls, Solaris shrugged slightly. "The walls here, specifically? They're nothing special. Elsewhere, I don't know."

 

[DotSlash]

Pix smiled a bit. [color=80bb00] "I'm just curious about new stuff is all. And we might as well try the brute force method to bust out of here, right?" [/color] The slime girl's right hand formed into a glistening goo drill and began to spin. [color=80bb00] "Ora~!" [/color] She screamed with a smirk as she jumped up and punched the spinning drill at the ceiling, waiting to see what would happen.

 

[Chungus]

"Well, we'll see what happens. On both accounts." Just remember; curiousity killed the cat. Solaris responded. Once Pix jumped up, Solris stood up herself, and moved away, not wanting to get dust in her hair. "My. Energetic, aren't you?" She commented while watching Pix drill into the ceiling.

Beyond the plasterboard and various wiring, the ceiling was made of concrete, as such, Pix might have a difficult time drilling through it. Some of the lights in the lounge went out as the wiring was cut by the drill.

 

[DotSlash]

Pix continued her assault on the ceiling, pushing upward as hard as she could as she left her form stick herself to the ceiling. After a while, Pix sighed and dropped from the ceiling, only managing to bore an inch deep hole into the building. Her hand reverted to normal as the slime girl flopped onto the floor and splattered a bit, loosing cohesion for a moment before pulling herself back together. [color=80bb00] "Oh... phooey." [/color] She said, reforming with a pout and her arms crossed across her chest.

 

[Demonjazz]

A turtle that had unusually human attributes and size. Walked in on two legs up to the lounge, he was narrating to himself "And then the turtle of ninjutsu training kicked in the door challenging..." He looked at the door which was taken down by the golem "Fuck! Somebody already did that for me!" The turtle wore a raggedy blue cape, some knee and elbow pads(Safety first), and a sword with giant spikes on the handle. He looked a bit like he was wearing some sort armour but that could have been his shell for all any body knew, his skin had black stripes, and he wore a pink bandana that trailed down his neck

 

[Chungus]

"Getting up to the floor above would be easier if you found a lift or flight of stairs." Solaris idly commented after Pix fell from the ceiling, and hit the floor with a splash. "I didn't expect you were able to stick to surfaces as you did, however..."

Hearing a new voice, Solaris looked over her shoulder, seeing the anthropomorphic tortoise walked in, which prompted a confused expression from Solaris, his words not helping the confusion. I don't think you could present yourself in a more riciculous way then you do now if you tried... "Who are you?" She asked.

 

[Demonjazz]

"Kirby, The Amazing Karate Tortoise!... Well technically I'm a Terrapin... I also only know ninjustu but it doesn't really have a good ring to it... Perhaps The Spectacular Fighting Terrapin?"

 

[DotSlash]

Pix looked over to Kirby and blinked a bit. [color=80bb00] "Well then... I'd probably stick with the first name you gave yourself. Think it has a better ring to it." [/color] She simply nodded at Solaris. [color=80bb00] "Yeah... sticking to places isn't that hard... but gosh, is it tiring..." [/color]

[hr]

In the arena, Carmen was casually strolling into it, twirling her dagger around her pointer finger.

 

[Demonjazz]

Kirby looked at the slime women "So you got hit by the mutagen too? I was taken by the Kraang. What's your story?"
