closetpervert | [Poly Entry 11:] Decent food GET!

[Accidental Video:]
[Have a scene where it appears to look like a view from the edge of a counter, which one can deduce as the kitchen from the refrigerator seen in the center of the screen along with the pile of dishes and towels everywhere. One perfect mess that can be expected of the home of a diligent researcher ~~without his girlfrie.. I mean assistant;; /cough~~.

The sound of sluggish foot steps are heard when the gray-haired man finally managed to drag himself into the kitchen for, what he hoped, a decent morning breakfast. A scratch of his head, a light yawn and his stomach growling, he hadn't eaten anything decent since yesterday besides drink plenty of water ~~and alcohol~~ and possibly nibble at what seemed edible amongst the excessive pile of grease that he was forced to eat. In fact, the pile of towels were all covered in nothing but grease from trying to dab some of it off the food. A quick glance towards his efforts made the man sigh as he placed a hand onto his forehead.

What a mess...

He reluctantly opened the frig when the expression on his face spoke for him- a relieved smile on his face. If one were to observe closely enough, a sneaky saliva glistened by the corner of his mouth. Klarth basked in its glory for a few more seconds like an idiot before taking a few things out to make and bringing it over to the counter. Noticing that the device was on, he quickly picked it up.]

Achaaaa... This thing was on all night? Geez... Where is my head, honestly.

[He gave it a weary look before turning it off.]

[ooc: Hey just returned from a long hiatus! And so, to explain what Klarth's been doing, he's been first checking on his friends when they were here, then a short grievance process since they all left him so he did quite a bit of thinking to himself and what to do next for a few days, and then back to researching the new information he was able to acquire before those ppl left. He was also helping people during Prince Nuada's raid and usual things when there's a curse going on and so forth. If there's a conflict let me know! But those are my assumptions for now~ also this is backdated to morning! Thanks!]

[He watched her graceful movements and recognizing the color of the glyph, he held his hat down and braced for it. His eyes widened as it came and a bright smile accompanied it along with a whistle.]

Phew~ A human casting Stalagmite. Never in my lifetime did I think I'd see it! This is amazing, Rita!

[Rita was busy inspecting her handiwork to judge how well she had improved the output and only half-listened to him.]

Huh? Oh. Yeah.

Hmm...looks a little more stable this time. Another seven or eight inches in diameter...

[He walked over to her while looking at the damage made. It really was Stalagmite, similar looking to Arche's and all. He recalled the feeling the blastia had given him and understood the power behind it. It was amazing and yet far too dangerous to be in just anyone's hands. As much as how he would have liked for humans to be able to perform an arte with a blink of an eye.. he knew there truly was no need for it now and probably was best that it never be. Catching the little bit she was mumbling, Klarth brought his attention back to her.]

Hm? Is something the matter?

[She took a few more moments to look over the rock spire before turning to Klarth to answer.]

Not really. I've just been working to improve the blastia as much as I can since I arrived here. I'd barely put together a working prototype before I ended up here--one to run off of mana instead of aer. The efficiency isn't like the old ones, but I'm working on it. It's actually improved quite a bit.

That's good to hear. This is the first time seeing it but from the looks of it, that spell is no basic level magic. Were you not able to cast it before?

Hm...It was probably possible but not without risking some serious damage. Now it's no problem for a spell like this--and you're right, that one was an intermediate-level spell.

[He sighed hopefully and gave a smile.] Now to work towards casting a higher level spell. Not that it's been necessary but it's best to be prepared for the worst.

Exactly. I'd rather have all my spells available for whatever the City throws at us next.

[She thought for a moment, then looked at him with a more serious expression.]

But just improving the blastia itself might not make a big difference. We still have the problem of some kind of...power dampener, like when Origin's mana was being siphoned away.

Hm. [He nodded.] Gathering enough mana to overcome that will be a big challenge not to mention dangerous. If we're to go that route, it's got to be precise. Not too little, not too much or it may run wild and get out of hand.

[The serious expression left her, replaced with a look of confidence. If it used aer or mana, she'd make it work somehow.]

A challenge, sure--but definitely not impossible. I've got the basics of an idea worked out already. I'm sure it'll be precise enough.

[He smiled to that look. He could see it in her eyes how determined she was.]

That's the spirit. We'll get it done. I'm certain of it.

Of course. Between the two of us, this should be a cinch! I'll start running calculations immediately.

[She was confident, but that didn't quite solve their equipment problem. Well, they'd work with what they could find--if that wasn't enough, then she'd consider a last resort. For now, she didn't mind working with Klarth. It might actually be...fun.]

[ooc; Good place to stop? or did you have more in mind that you wanted to play out? I'm fine with either way~<3333]

[I think it's fine if we stop here! It's a good spot and...wow, we've been at this one for over a month already. XD]

[koo koo~ and yeah! I know, right? lolol But heeeee~ it was really fun! Thanks for letting me get creative!]

[Haha, same here! These two are such dorks about magic and spirits, so put them together and they'll really get crazy. XD]
