[Fluxxation]

In the forest, r~nko sits, legs crossed, head in hands.

Surely she had done it right? Why wasn't it working?

She gets to her feet, kicking the contraption before her a few times.

She had given so much time, so many other's time, and materials, and yet it still didn't work? All that Coral, exhaust, and digital tears-

Coral. There are only four Coral based individuals on this planet.

She drew her revolver and kurambit, turning towards the camp.

(You are about 15 years too late for that (that was soooo 38-ish pages ago, IIRC))

{Neither have I. We can just time skip if you want.}

(Hm...think I *might* have figured out a working solution...feel free to take it with a grain of salt though, because I'm trying to guess how a medieval person would've done it. Let's just say I wanted to do a little bit of conversation on a slightly unrelated topic. In a sec.)

"..So...first...you take a uh...long, flexible tree branch. You use that as the basis for your crown.."
Melanie glances around quickly, before finding one such tree branch, and handing it to August.
"You want to bend that into a kind of circle, sort of making it interlock with itself to hold it in place..."

(To know where it all started backtrack to page 794, then skip all the way to page 824, which is where they both "confess")

<...Pretty sure that was better than before, so...that's good.>


Melanie blushes again, but this time covers it with a cough.
"..Um...yeah...I guess I do."
Despite the cough, she sounds a bit...confused?


"Hmm...yeah, would be nice to get moving now."
Melanie gets up to get ready to move.

(About here is a decent place to start. I think.)
(Some of it's broken up by other plots though. And there's some stuff that came before you can backread for more context.)

[Creeper326]

Irene hides in the corner, afraid of the charcoal, for unknown reasons.
<Unobtainium! It's Unobtainium! The Omega Reaper's stone! Stay away from it! Stay away!>

*Tethin notices Irene is scared of the charcoal and picks it up and places it in the far corner. He goes back to irene, empty handed, and reasures her.* "Irene, my little one, there's nothing that can harm you here.

*Tethin sits down, making himself intentionally small.*
"Would you like to tell me about what you're thinking about? I'm thinking about the taste of recently baked bread. The feel of it, such softness and sponginess, it all is quite simple, but wonderful. And you?"

Melanie blushes a bit at the contact, as she starts to show August how to make a flower crown.

(Noot gonna be detailed because I uh...don't entirely understand how to make one myself IRL, lmao.)
(I'll try to figure it out though.)

(Twist thin, flexible branches into each other and then once you've made a circlet, you can place flowers in by the stem in between the holes. Add as many vines/branches as you wish. I may have made a few myself irl...)

(For anyone concerned about my sleep schedule, not to worry, I have a long weekend and can sleep in very late.)

 

[Banana_=P]

(He follows the instructions.)

"Then you just uh... start wrapping your flower stems around the branch!"
Melanie waits for August to follow said instructions, before continuing to speak. She does watch August work though.
"...Um..so. The Corruption...kinda dangerous place."

 

[Im_ConfuzzledCobalt🥐🌳🐿]

Bow-Eye looks over at Jesklit, down at his list, and then back up.
-1000. Couldn't do wrong even if she tried.
Surprising.

“Which one?”

to be fair, it should be 0, she hasnt done at all
the negatives shouldnt be the absence of evil, but the presence of good

...
I don't know.
....I can't hear my own thoughts.
.....Thoughts that aren't mine are far louder.
.....They tend to take control.
...I can't do anything but listen.
Irene hugs Tethin, crying.

 

[Fluxxation]

She reaps what she must in the general calm, a broken window and bleeding Coral the only evidence she had been there in the first place, leaving a memento of the two she had taken at the edge of camp.

Armatura's severed head.

The careful listener can pick up quiet mechanical whines at the edge of the camp, fading quickly as a metal body is dragged away.

 

[Banana_=P]

;He does so.)

“Which one?”

"Just The Corruption. Not the Rooted Corruption."
Melanie pauses, checking August's progress on the flower crown.
"..We were underground earlier so X could make an ice totem for me as a weapon to help look through that place."
"X tells me it's a dangerous place...he implied it was more dangerous than the Hallow. That place with the weird blue grass."

[Jesklit once took a goddamn bullet for someone she didn't know. Just willingly. And it wasn't because Jesklit wanted to perish, it's because Jesklit wanted to protect that person.]
[Jesklit actively goes out of her way to help people. This is actually due to how Myscal raised her, because Myscal believes that good actions shouldn't be rewarded, but expected, and that only the best people to ever live should be praised.]

*He wraps his arms around Irene, gently caressing all along her back, trying to sooth her.*

aaaaand so does Ferrin.
there better be a damn good reason for her to be rated among literal angels.

“I thought it was the opposite… apparently my sword was forged from materials from both sides; the Hallowed Bars made it expensive.

 

[Creeper326]

"*Tethin, knowing the more someone is told not to think about something, the more that person will think about the thing they shouldn't, doesn't really know how to speak with Irene about this. He tries anyway.*
"What do these voices in your head say?"

 

[Banana_=P]

“I thought it was the opposite… apparently my sword was forged from materials from both sides; the Hallowed Bars made it expensive.

Melanie shrugs.
"Maybe your world's Hallow and Corruption are a bit different then..."
"My world had neither, so..I'm unfamiliar with both places."
Melanie leans back a bit, relaxing on the grass.
"..Your sword's made from uh...Hallowed Bars?"
