"The map took me a minute to make, so it really didn't hold much value to me"
"...Technology can be so amazing sometimes..."
She seems a bit awed.

X-001 grabs the totem and examines it closely.
"You are right about one thing, the totem itself is easy to make and I can feel the magical properties in it, must the magic be divine to make it work? cause of if not, I do have a way to apply magic to it"
Melanie yelps a bit, surprised, but allows X to take the totem to take a look.

The magical properties indeed can be felt too. It feels warm and fuzzy and - huh. Seems like it even has some kind of signature you can kind of just sense, assuming you possess sufficient magic sensitivity. Feels vaguely like what it feels to persist...
"...You can..work magic?"
"..."

Melanie thinks for a bit.
"...I mean, the main point is just to imbue my blade with magical properties."
"The divine magic component I think just...recharges the magic it stores within automatically, and aids in the imbument process on my sword too."
"...Not sure what's possible with the er...magic you'd have access to."

(assuming the totem is still charged with Primordial Light, X-001 might get a nasty surprise...)

(..I have that either in my sword still or tucked away in my sword sheath sash, thankfully.)

Speaking of which though, X might also pick up a certain...Primordial magic aura from Melanie's sword.
 
(Hmm, yeah I'd say Cord's mainly free. Like I said, he isn't really a character to be relevant to whatever goes on)
 
There's a quiet clanking and beeping throughout the camp. The MMU, in all of its foot and a half tall glory, comes sprinting through, clutching what looks like a huge bomb above its head, weaving between all those present.

Arma is skuttling in the machine's wake, lens wide in anger.

"HEY. GET BACK HERE YOU BRAT! YOU CAN'T JUST STEAL MY PROJECTS LIKE THIS!"

She tries getting through the crowd.. to moderate success, likely bumping into a lot of people, the MMU gaining distance quickly.


Zinque is watching all of this blankly from his spot against the tree.

"Awaiting.. deployment."
*As MMU is running through camp, Tethin picks the bomb up, the MMU with it.*
"Now what are you doing with this, eh?"
 
"...Technology can be so amazing sometimes..."
She seems a bit awed.
"It can, I'm gonna guess that where you are from magic dominates over science, correct?"
Melanie yelps a bit, surprised, but allows X to take the totem to take a look.

"Not exactly work magic, you see, I can't cast spells like Xueqing and Astra nor can I summon spectral objects like Bright, but I do know how to engrave runes with magical properties to weapons and armor, and any object really"
X-001 then realizes his mistake and gives the totem back to Melanie
"Sorry, shouldn't have grabbed it without permission, By the way, your sword is causing great disruption in the magnetic fields, what kind of magical properties does it have?"
 
"It can, I'm gonna guess that where you are from magic dominates over science, correct?"
“…I…guess?”
Melanie seems to lack a frame of reference to confirm that.

"Not exactly work magic, you see, I can't cast spells like Xueqing and Astra nor can I summon spectral objects like Bright, but I do know how to engrave runes with magical properties to weapons and armor, and any object really"
Melanie nods, seeming to understand.

"Sorry, shouldn't have grabbed it without permission, By the way, your sword is causing great disruption in the magnetic fields, what kind of magical properties does it have?"
"Thanks."
Melanie then glances at her sword, giving X a confused look.
"...Also...magnetic uh...what now?"
"...Pretty sure my sword in itself should have no magical properties..."
"..."

Melanie perks up a bit, remembering her other totem.
"..Oooh. That Primordial Light Totem I somehow convinced the Empress to give me has some magic in it too."

(Going to sleep so. See you guys later.)
 
"Thanks."
Melanie then glances at her sword, giving X a confused look.
"...Also...magnetic uh...what now?"
"...Pretty sure my sword in itself should have no magical properties..."
"..."

Melanie perks up a bit, remembering her other totem.
"..Oooh. That Primordial Light Totem I somehow convinced the Empress to give me has some magic in it too."
(love how Melanie isn't going to elaborate on this)
 
“…I…guess?”
Melanie seems to lack a frame of reference to confirm that.
"I'm gonna take that as a yes"
"Thanks."
Melanie then glances at her sword, giving X a confused look.

"...Pretty sure my sword in itself should have no magical properties..."
"..."

Melanie perks up a bit, remembering her other totem.
"..Oooh. That Primordial Light Totem I somehow convinced the Empress to give me has some magic in it too."
"The Empress gave you primordial magic that easily? She is one careless Empress then"
X-001 and Melanie continue walking towards the marked spot
 
(What do you guys do for ideas?)

Cord is still doing nothing but wandering a forest for nothing but boredom.
 
If you guys want a major antagonist... I could shove Rope into the RC, which would make a great combination with his near insanity from the Eyenite...
 
(...Let's not right now. I already had to delay introducing Malis enough and I'd rather not delay it too much more at this point. Besides, I feel like the cast needs a bit of time to rest.)
(I'll try to get back to work on my real antagonist for here again soon, but I can't right now because I don't have access to my documents and don't really have alternatives for getting ideas right now.)
 
*As MMU is running through camp, Tethin picks the bomb up, the MMU with it.*
"Now what are you doing with this, eh?"
Holding on tightly, it stares at him and beeps in annoyance.

Arma is almost there now..
 
{…still have to go through the airport. I’ll be here, but no sprites/Discord/whatever for an hour or two.}

(Bright is whistling a familiar tune to some people IC.)

(August is taking a nap.)
