[Video] ice ice baby

[saigawa]

[There's a necklace dangling in front of the screen, with the simple dagger shaped ornament shown hanging from the chain. Some people may recognise it as the Moonstone Necklace from a certain shop. Kashuu move it away from the screen, holding it up next to his face with a wink. From the cat ears on top of his head, it's pretty obvious that he's a Cordis.]

See this? Do you think it looks good on me? Although, I rather have it in gold.

[... Right. But that's not why he's here, even if he enjoys getting attention and validation.]

Anywaaay, I got this from that merchant guy. Lumi, I think? [Yeah, he knows the guy's name.] Said to like... increase our elemental powers during our moon cycles.

[As if to show, he raise a finger with his other, free hand. With a wave, some frost starts to form around that digit. Until there's a visible, thin layer of frost covering it... Which he soon breaks a moment later by just bending his finger.]

That thing. So what I want to know is this! Who else have this? Because I haven't prick myself with this yet, and I want to know how much more powerful these powers can get after you do.

That's all I want to ask! Please tell me if you know the answer to this.

Can't exactly show it no more now that Sanguis is up, but I tried those necklaces this month myself. Hell of a boost in output an' intensity. I use my fire magic for welding, usually, but now - feels like I could burn a dang house down if I ain't careful.

Doubt you'd have to worry about somethin', ice an' all, but you get the idea. Big damn increase.

Wow, that sounds pretty big! I guess in my case, I can probably completely freeze over something really big.

[It's a good thing he asked! What if he underestimate himself and freeze too much things?]

But that sounds pretty dangerous... I kind of want to see it. Your fire, that is.

dont be a coward

stab yourself live

[saigawa]

[He blinks, and blinks again when he reread this text.]

What, no? Stabbing myself isn't cute at all!

[teaserving]

live as a coward then

[spah]

Likely. Sorta dangerous in its own way, I reckon. I'd say test it out somewhere safe 'n outta the way, if you can. That way, you get a feel for the difference on your own.

[He chuckles.]

Yeah, well. Sanguis just wrapped up, so you'll have to wait a few weeks before I can make anythin' happen.

[saigawa]

I could go to the park... Actually, I wonder if the beach would be okay?

[Something along the line of letting the ice melts away into the seawater.]

Well, I don't mind waiting! So you don't mind showing me?

[Since he doesn't know this guy (yet, Kashuu can't exactly barge in out of the blue.]

[spah]

Long as you ain't botherin' people or animals, I suppose.

Hey, now, don't you gotta ask first? [Pfft. He shakes his head, amused regardless.] Maybe sometime, sure. I'm Dell. Dell Conagher. Folks call me "Engie."

[saigawa]

[WOW. Actually, he's not that prideful enough for this BUT.]

I'm not stabbing myself, no way! And how did you get "stabbing" from "prick yourself"?

[saigawa]

Then, can you please show me next time?

[Good thing this guy doesn't seem too bothered. People either go along with him, or get annoyed. Not like the latter ever bothers him.]

Name's Kashuu Kiyomitsu. Nice to meet you, Engie!

[spah]

Sure. [He chuckles again.] Say, if you go through with it... you mind showin' me your magic too? Maybe we oughta compare notes on how it amplifies each cycle's magic.

Good to meetcha too, Kashuu. How long you been here?

[teaserving]

booooooooooooooooooooo boring

[saigawa]

Sure. Since you're going to show me yours, it's just fair.

[He can be reasonable sometimes! But he blinks at the question.]

I've been here for about... [He take a moment to actually think. The passage of time never really register for him, beside when he's feeling lonely dumb about certain people.] Four months? About there.

[Huh... that long already. It feels weird.]

[saigawa]

What's so fun about watching someone stab themselves?!

[spah]

Thanks. It oughta be worth the research.

[He hums.]

Guess I ain't met everybody yet. I've been here about five. Not far off.

[teaserving]

blood is cool

[saigawa]

Blood is annoying to clean.

[#Priorities.]

[saigawa]

I know some people that's been here even longer. But on the other hand, I haven't meet everyone else yet.

[He's in no particular hurry, really. Unless they cross paths one day.]

Doesn't five months feel long for you?

[spah]

I was one of the first Moonblessed 'round here, so I reckon so.

[saigawa]

Oooh...

[That does pique up his interest.]

That means you probably saw a lot more stuff since then.

[spah]

Yup.

[Probably not much different than this kid's seen in his time, though.]

By the way, if you ever got a time or place in mind for experimentin' with our magic, lemme know.

Can wrap up here if you want!

[saigawa]

Of course! Once I find the perfect place, I'll let you know.

[Time to use his admittedly too much free time to hunt down a spot later.]
