We Are Our Avatars X (Closed, Ended)

[ShindoL Shill]

Utarra - ~24:00

As Robin looked around, he wouldn't see any areas in the city suitable for camping. Outside of the city there was more snow on the ground than there was inside, and the ground was mostly rocks rather than stone slabs. However, the Mason sisters would find another inn nearby.

Utarra, like, two minutes ago

[color=FF0080]"Go, check on your friend. I think she's hurt."[/color] Madeline told Robin, the Masons, and whoever else was watching her. It was just as much to avoid conversation as it was actually caring for Cybil.
[hr]
Utarra, now, still ~24:00

Madeline stood shivering, since her clothes were not all that warm.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Robin looked to the shivering Madeline, wishing he had a spare coat, and waved her nearer to the flame in his hand if she needed it.

Utarra~24:00

The still very shaded Madeline became static again and looked at the ground in shame, but walked toward's Robin's flame, avoidin eye contact all the while.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"What is that?" Robin asked. "That... Strobing?"

 

[username sucks]

[color=FF0080]"I can't help it, please don't look."[/color] She asked, becoming slightly transparent as well. [color=FF0080]"I'm part light elemental. I've been living with it for a very long time..."[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Robin looked away. "Elemental?"

 

[username sucks]

[color=FF0080]"Yes. All powerful Magisters become part elemental where I'm from. I just didn't know the consequences of choosing light."[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"You seem to be made of it."

 

[username sucks]

[color=FF0080]"I- well, partially, yes. That comes from being part elemental."[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"I imagine it has benefits and downsides..."

 

[username sucks]

[color=FF0080]"I despise it. My emotions always show on my body, and I can't control it."[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Then why do it?"

 

[username sucks]

[color=FF0080]"Because I was lucky enough to be born with magic. It's just how things are back there. I didn't know that any of this would happen."[/color]

Utarra Area - Day 5 - 07:24​

At Anik mentioning things didn't go as hoped, Timea looked up to her. "It didn't... . You may have been conned, if this is all it can do", she mentioned, then continued to dig. "Well, there isn't a river nearby, but there is frozen water all around us. You could try to capture and unfreeze enough to wash yourself with." she continued, not knowing the word "thaw". " But, to save time, I could also produce the water for you. Whichever you prefer."

Digging up the meat, Timea picked up the blanket, and somewhat begrudgingly, held it over the meat, to roast it without needing to expend energy, herself.

 

[Slenn]

"Hey ummm... Luminara." She said, a little hesitant. "I've dealt with light for mostly my entire life. Maybe there's something I could help you with. I know my abilities with light are probably not the same as yours back where you're from, but maybe there's something that's translatable that I could teach you." Her voice grew more confident. "I kinda want to make it up to you. No mind tricks, promise."

 

[username sucks]

She looked up at EMily, smiled weakly, and a faint rainbow effect briefly covered her body. [color=FF0080]"I doubt you could. But you're the first person to ever even consider trying to help. Thank you. But that's not my real name."[/color]

 

[Slenn]

"D'oh... shoot, I forgot." She slumped her head humorously, and then brought it back upright. "Try me anyway. I mean my tool is named after the quanta of light itself. And light is an electromagnetic wave. And I'm greatly attuned to matters concerning electromagnetism."

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Robin stepped back, watching EMily work but analysing for any kind of magic or effect she was pulling off.

 

[Silence]

Utarra Area - Day 5 - 07:24

"Nah, I wasn't conned. I'm just not powerful enough, yet." Anik said. "Well, we don't have something to store the unfrozen water, do we? So, it will probably be fastest if you do it.

... especially because I will not know exactly when I am clean."

Smelling the meat roast, Anik's stomach began to grumble, as the previous stuff had taken quite a lot of energy off her. Knowing that the meat was for Timea, she did not talk about it, wanting to buy something later. Or hunt, if there was the possibility.
