Spartan rests in the sands for a moment, his scars glowing red as scarlet.

I figure he must be using Quickening to heal after that...

I figure that Spartan's ear drums must be out and cal over the Brazilian guy," Hey man! That was awesome! Come here, I wanna talk!"

The man holds up his hand to us and takes out his earphones, had he not been listening that entire time?
" Hey, what you guys want? You like me spar?" He says, walking over to us.

I scratch my chin and tilt my head to the side," I liked it, I liked it... What was that though? You use sound?"

Katie gives me a pinch as she giggles, "Of course he does Omar, you saw it!"

The Brazilian seems to be trying to understand," Yes, I... Use the sound.. It is.. my Magic. Had to make the air hard to stop those blades though... The music did him in... I started playing it from the start. Forced him slow when he came on me."

I get a feeling that I could take him... I'd just have to adapt my ears... But... "So... did he try to feed off you? How did you stop it?

"Feed? What do you mean?"

Spartan walks up to Katie and I, he turns to the Brazilian and bows," Thank you Antonio. That was brilliant."

"Ah, no, no, Wallie calls me, ah.. Tuni... I like that."

Spartan scowls ever so slightly, his scars giving him an unsettling appearance,"I will not use such a ridiculous name... We will clash again soon.. Antonio... As for the question, Omar... I did not feed from him. He made it difficult by making most of his attacks last only an instance. Feeding is harder during brief intervals. Evokers accustomed to Invokers will make use of that. Good day."

"Nice talking to you... Uhh, friends. Have nice day." Tuni walks off, putting his headphones back in.

Katie decides that she's going to play again as well, while I turn in... not much more to do while you're so tired...

Before continue, I'd like to post an interpretation of what invokers do/how they work that an anon posted near the end of last thread. I wanted to clarify, that they were, in fact, spot on.

"My interpretation, which might be a bit inaccurate, is that the Flow is a giant river/ocean of concepts, ideas, truths, lies, legends, souls, gods, dreams, and so on. It's magic.

What Invokers do is they take part of the flow into themselves. There's big currents, little eddies, and everything in between, and an Invoker can't take too much bad things happen. On the low end exhaustion, on the high end DEATH. Also if we try to Channel a big concept, like say "Dracula" and we fail it might just kill us, if we only partially succeed it might cause horrendous pain and require a lot of healing before we can use Magic again, if we do better but not really well we might get some "Dracula" stuck bouncing around in our system.

When we're doing our chambered fist we're taking the idea of "Mantis Shrimp" into ourself and molding our arm to fit with their club arm. The details work themselves out due to magic, our DNA and body Shift. The best part of our transformation is that when it's done it's there, we don't need to channel Flow to it to keep it there, it's part of our body, it's physically possible, it meshes with the real world so we don't need to keep channeling Flow at it to combat Paradox, which is pretty much the world shutting you down because you're doing something impossible.

Other transformations like the Phoenix are impossible so once we change into that we need to keep pumping Flow into it because we keep on needing to tell the world to fuck off. Same thing goes for Quickening and Reinforcement."

So credit to that anon, wherever they may be.

>>23019715
Thank you, I do my best.

Note, we should spend some time one morning gives ourself a giant bucket of subtle enhancements that we can just keep on without anyone being the wiser.

Mongoose's reflexes, perfect eyesight but still looking like human eyes, people notice compound eyes, better hearing and sense of smell, more powerful and enduring muscles, tougher/denser bones, red blood vessels that can carry oxygen around better, more efficient lungs and digestive system, better kidneys/liver for toxin filtering.

Katie decides that she's going to play again, however I'm pretty much out of it for the day. She smiles at me and heads off to challenge an invoker. It seems she has a thing for fighting those she has an affinity against, or maybe it's just the style of combat that we invokers use that appeals to her?

Heh, an animist that wants to be an invoker.. I wouldn't mind being an animist if what she said is true... Not getting tired from using my power.. right now that's like a dream.

I watch her "play" against her invoker opponent, she seems to be good at using her hands and feet to get around. I see her pull a cartwheeling kick that catches her opponent by surprise and throws a load of sand in his face. She must've done that to me...

There doesn't seem to be much else to do around the sparring field, though katie may be done with her "game" soon...

Ethnicity: Caucasian
Injuries: None
Magic:
Reinforcement(Expert)
Quickening (Adept)
Shift(Advanced)

Note: Kyle Bulwoski has been for the better part, an exemplary agent, using a combination of high reinforcement, quickening, and a well adapted skill in boxing and other martial arts. With us for some time, he laid in the inspiration for key training rooms such as the Butterfly room, and the Water Skater room. We thank Kyle and hope for his continued cooperation, trust, and excellence.

Antonio Tovar

Danger Class: C
Overhuman type: Evoker
Ethnicity: Latino
Injuries: None
Magic:
Manipulation(Adept)
Conceptualization(Adept)
Wave manipulation(Natural Specialization)
Mark of Power: Bulls eye pattern.

Note: Antonio Tovar has shown great promise as an Evoker. His training has yielded his natural ability to manipulate sound waves, changing their frequency, wavelength, and focus to: Cancel sound,
deafen targets, and dissemble structures. While his ability is powerful, it has yielded him little in way of defenses against certain opponents.

Aria Seer
Nick: The Handler, Aphrodite

well we can fast heal anything but ok no Byrd bones

After a brief examination of the three profiles on the sparring sands' console, I bid Katie a quick farewell, she waves goodbye in the middle of a roundhouse.

The travel from the sands to my chambers is uninterrupted by any.. pests.. I think of Violet.. I wonder why she hasn't visited me since the incident.. If it's just because I'm not "incredible to her or not now.. I'm not sure..

In my own quarters, I slip off my shoes and feel the shag carpet with my feet. Oh man, Renaissance did good on this.. Opening my mini fridge, I take out a soda and regard my mother's ashes.. To think, she was alive not even two weeks ago..

Is my vendetta against Renaissance true? do I really intend to bring these guys down? Hell, can I even escape without being hunted?

I think we would rather take this place over rebirth it in the ashes if its cruel leader and ways make it a home a safe place for us and our kind away for those who would wish to hurt us and those like us to make a new home a new family from these broken people.
and maybe help make sure something like what happened to us doesn't happen again to others.

An update on current status.

>>23020305

Omar wouldn't know about Ecto Coolers.

>>23020339
If we're not feeling too tired for some shifting tonight we could work on the sensory/reaction package tonight. Get perfect eyesight, maybe hit part of the ultra-violet and infra-red spectrum, always a good thing. Make sure our eyes still look human. Inhuman sense of smell, taste, hearing.

Also Mongoose reflexes for a poor man's always on quickening.

>>23020401
then I will weep for him

I think about how I really feel about Renaissance while I pace in my room, glancing at the urn with my mother's ashes...

Reflecting on what's been going on with Renaissance, how they've treated me.. It's no exactly humane. But the people that are apart of this organization have been good, bad.. and some even family.

I look at the ashes again. Family... With my old one gone, I need a new one... right?
I grit my teeth at that thought, tears stinging my ears as they seep out and spread hotly on my face..

I can forgive the supervisors for being so cold, I can forgive, but I won't forget... and I'll try to change this place in any way that I can.

That is.. That is what mother would want for me.. If I left, I'd just be an Over on the run, and who knows where others end up...

Wiping my face, I buckle down and go through data on the console pertaining to animals.

Quickening first, it's too much of a waste to use it just to get out of the way. I need to naturally move faster. Snakes have good reflexes but.. but the mongoose is faster still.

I close my eyes and think of the mongoose taking down the snake as it strikes. . .

I feel my body become more responsive, as though my nerves are greased lightning. it was a small change, however with a small move, I find that my body is a bit out of control. I hold off on further enhancements tonight.. I'm going to get used to this one first...

>[] Call someone.
>[] Go to sleep, time for a new day.
>[] Order something.

(can do all three if you'd like, just specify.)

>>23020567
[X] Go to sleep, time for a new day.

We've had a long time, it's sleep time.

>>23020567
sleep its been a long day

I decide to strip my clothes off, going about it very slowly to avoid overstimulating my reworked nerves.

Carefully folding up my clothes and setting them in a hamper, I lay down in my memory foam bed and go to sleep...

Question: Is shift capable of changing limbs in such a manner that you aren't specifically mimicing an animal but rather you are just taking different parts of different animals and combining them in a way that you effectively create a new tool?

For example reinforcing a joint to the point where it becomes static/unmoving with additional bone but becomes extremely durable while also combining it with animal feature(s) for increased effectiveness.

>>23020789
we can try an see

Waking early the next day, I feel sore to start with and my nerves seem to have adjusted well enough to move around without too much difficulty.

With the events of yesterday still fresh in my mind, I figure that I could probably skip training, see Drake, maybe play with Katie..

I also wonder about how Wallie's doing and whether Fauna, Kill, Eliza, and Lock are back..

And then there's Violet... my mind keeps drifting to those strange eyes of hers...

>[] Skip training, socialize and spar.
>[] Check training assignments.
>[] Check Mission Log.
>[] Call someone

>>23020789

Yes, it can. And Omar's natural ability makes that easier.

>>23020806
Our order for glass components ought to come in today. We should get that thing made ASAP. So use our console, check when they'll be arriving, and ask if we could borrow a somewhat heat proof room for some practice, promise not to melt this one.

>>23020806
>[] Check training assignments.
check drakes profile see wear he is at and if we can visit if he is alive

>>23020806
How about a change of pace, let's check that mission log.

>>23020838
Cool. I've been playing around with some arm form designs that may be of varying usefulness. So far I've thought of a Ram's Head Fist and a Shark Tooth Blade. I can elaborate further if anyone cares.

While on the console, I check Drake's profile to see what it says, and if he's ok...

Drake Machete
Nick
Male
Danger Class: C
Overhuman type: Invoker
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Injuries: None
Magic:
Reinforcement (Advanced)
Quickening (Dismal)
Shifting(Dismal)
Rage (Natural Specialization)
Mark of Power: Red Crest upon right hand.

Note: Drake has been one of the more difficult to deal with. He has excelled in assessment, far more than the two other new recruits in terms of sheer power. However it seems he can only attain his true power under circumstance of severe anger. Training him in areas other than reinforcement will prove difficult.

Status: For any that it may concern, Drake is out of critical status incurred by overfeeding. He has not yet awoken. Visiting is currently prohibited in case of another incident involving his power.

>>23020907

Please do.

Though his current known arm mods are: Pistol shrimp Claw, Mantis Shrimp Club, Mantis Shrimp Harpoon.

>>23020907
that works too

>>23020907
As for the pacing, as we've made the decision as to his current objective, he's gone through primary training, I had thought of a timeskip coming up soon.

Though, there's like to be some thing happening today.. It'll happen after that...

>>23020918
Man, poor fuck. Maybe he needs to get into meditation so he can channel his rage properly.

I check the mission log while I'm at the console, I figure that I might as well do something beneficial.. I've been cooped up in this compound for almost two damn weeks, I could use a change of place!

However I find that the mission log is empty, save for one.

>Infiltration and sabotage (A)

It's an A rank... I'm an A rank danger level but... I'm kinda apprehensive about this...

The console says that the debriefing will be given once the mission is locked.

Do I take it?

>[] Mission Accepted.
>[] That... that seems like too much..

>>23021059
That seems a bit much. The main reason we're A is because of Phoenix, great at setting everything on fire, not good at sneaking.

>>23021098

Omar's not the only one taking missions.

This just happens to be all that's left.

>>23021115
I agree, but it doesn't really fit out skill set, we're good with Shift/Reinforce, but we're still green as grass, and going Phoenix and setting everything on fire isn't good for most infiltration missions.

>>23021059

It's too much.

Go eat, then train some more in Reinforcement.

>>23021161
>going Phoenix and setting everything on fire isn't good for most infiltration missions.

Well if we set everything on fire then we can fit right on in with the background, can't we?

>>23020907
I know.

I suggested both the pistol shrimp arm and the spike attachment for the mantis fist.

Truthfully I thought of the shark tooth blade prior to the ram's head fist. You start by reinforcing the wrist into a rigid structure, as well as the bones in the palm. Next you form a megalodon tooth over the hand (fingers should be together, but not curled into a fist, sticking straight out). The end of the tooth should go to the wrist, about. Next the outside edge of the forearm should be armored/encased in something hard, probably the same material the tooth is made of. Then you put a couple rows of tiger shark teeth on that edge. Was originally thought of to be used with quickening as an assassin's weapon, although you could just go full on reinforcement and tear people in half with it.

Ram's head fist is made by reinforcing the arm in the same way as the blade, but the fingers are curled into a fist instead. Next a plate of bone is formed over the fingers and then at the wrist you grow out a pair of ram's horns so that they curl over the fist. Truth be told I'm not entirely sure in what situation you would use this over the mantis fist. Perhaps it scales better with reinforcement/other muscle changes? Or, you could probably combine it with the mantis fist for something that would probably be more suited for demolitions than hitting people IE using the reinforced fist component with the chambering of the fist for a very hard striker.

>>23021059
I'd pass on in, not really our strong suit.

>>23021059
well we are a red and gold glowing body tattoo black male we are in no way good at infiltration unless its mardi gras

I think we should train see what they want us to do

An A rank mission seems like it should be beyond my real expertise... I can't just ride the coattails of the phoenix to get ahead in this place.. That power is dangerous, destructive, wears me out, and it's not suited for such a mission.

I hear the sound of a doorbell, taking it for strange at first, and then seeing what it is after the second ring.

At the door, stands Violet, holding a parcel.

She's wearing yet another nice dress today. A black Halter that ends just below her knees with a lavender fringe. Her hair's cut into a a short bob, and she stares at me expectantly, her eyes not glowing for once.

"Hello there, Omar. I have a present for you." Her lips curl into a smile.

>[]Shut the door on her.
>[] See what she wants.
>[] Ask her why she didn't visit me.
>[] Call her a bitch.
>[] Write in.

>>23021226
>[x] see what she wants

>>23021226
>[] See what she wants.

No reason to be rude about it.

>>23021226
invite her in she probable couldn't visit?
like with drake

>>23021279

Kill was visiting. Omar's situation was different.

>>23021226

(OP, mind archiving this thread now? You can be ambiguous in the description for what happens, I just want this to still be available when I wake up.)

(It's about 1:14 AM here and I wanna sleep)

>>23021288
well lets see what she has to say.
for all we know she was gone on mission

>>23021288
so open up with "ware have you been stranger come in "give her a hug

>>23021226

(Thank you OP)

Standing at the door, I put my arms on the frame and lean out a bit casually as I meet her eyes.

"And what might that be Violet?" I ask with less patience in my voice than intended.

Her stare becomes one a tad less friendly and she shoves the package into my chest, albeit a bit forcefully.

"Oh, just take it."

Holding the package, move it around a bit. It's light, really light. "And this is?"

"It's the odd materials you ordered, I think one of the supervisors said that it was for glass. So, what are you up to, may I come in?" She takes a step closer, and leans in, staring at my face and putting a single finger to her chin, being cute or something...

>[] Thank you, but sorry Violet. I'll see you later.
>[] Invite her inside, she can't mean any harm..
>[] Ask her what her angle is.
>[] Write in.

>>23021417
Let her in, I guess.

>>23021417
>>[X] Invite her inside, she can't mean any harm..

"making a Phoenix with my moms ashes need something solid to shift a push "

"so how do you like the room "

>>23021417
[X] Invite her inside, she can't mean any harm..

"Thanks Violet, needed it for an arts and crafts project.

So, what can I do for you?"

I stare at her a moment," Well, thanks... I'm making a phoenix out of my mother's ash..." I stand to the side and tilt my head for her to come inside,"Take your shoes off, feel the shag carpet. You like the room?"

While Violet fiddles with her shoes, I set the package down near the urn, opening it to examine the materials that have been separated in test-tube vials to exact measurement of the order... Renaissance really doesn't play when it comes to these requests...

Violet finally steps into the room with her fishnet stockings on.

She shifts her eyes a moment and stares at me coyly with her hands together," Omar, trying to undress me before we even get started?"

How do I react?

>[] Thought you'd never ask...
>[] I'm sorry? I.. I don't want...
>[] No. Get out.
>[] Violet? There's someone I like... (State)
>[] Write in.

>>23021708
"Violet. You're very pretty but I trust you as far as I can throw Kill. Why are you doing this? What are you after? Why me? What do you actually want from me?"

>>23021708
>[] I'm sorry? I.. I don't want...
Perhaps in the future we can take her up on her offer, but at the present it feels like she's trying to stake a claim in order to increase her position/power, and I don't feel comfortable with being used as a means for others to acquire said power.

>>23021708
"Started?"

"any way what you been up to haven't seen you in a wile "

"haven't been getting around much my self, yesterday was the first day I was able to get some training in, since an accent in the butterfly room. put me in the hospital fore a few weeks, kill and wally came over to say hi, I was kinda wondering what happened with you we were getting along so well..."

>>23021805
thats a little harsh but yea I want to know her intentions

>>23021822
but lets not total refuse her we can use her right back. with such a high Conceptualization that she has if willing she would be the best to feed off. for a powerful shift she would do like half the work for us meaning we could boost our selves to new heights with her help

I take a step back and hold my hands up in the space between us as she takes a step closer, pulling down her halter...

"Violet! Look, you're pretty and all.. But.. I really don't trust..."

Her eyes glow, radiating this time," Shhh Omar.. You know you can trust me..."

I begin my feeding to cancel her power, "No. Violet. You need to stop." I say half-heartedly.

"You know you don't mean that... Omar, why wouldn't you trust me?" another step closer and she wriggles more of her body from her halter.

"Why... Why are you doing this?" I feel myself waning and redouble my feeding to take the edge off of her power.

"I want you, and I want to know more about you... I want your body..." She smiles as she reaches around to her back and undoes the zipper, her chest exposed. She's only a couple feet from me.

I recoil from her further, I don't know what'll happen if she touches me. I look to my right and I see the urn.. If I.. if I burn her...

(She's "in control" right now. She's like to not answer any question honestly.)

>[] Kick her in the gut.
>[] Touch the urn and threaten her with fire.
>[] Continue to resist peacefully.
>[] Give in, it's just so hard...
>[] Write in.

Ironically, if this was a "normal" quest thread, all the votes would be to bone.

>>23021965
I say its time for fire. She worked with Renaissance 'against' us before, we can't trust her.

>>23021965
"I'm sorry, but no means no."
>Threaten her with fire.

>>23021972
Well, in normal quest threads the consequences of boning aren't quite as (potentially) severe.

>>23021965
>>[X] Continue to resist peacefully.


>>23022009
no we are better than that

"I want you, and I want to know more about you... I want your body..."

"I wanted a friend some one I could trust "
:( Please don't make me do something stupid"

>>23021965
[X] Touch the urn and threaten her with fire.

Get a small flame going and slowly grow it.
"Violet, I do kind of like you, but I severely dislike you messing with my head. If you want to talk with me or fuck me turn that off right now. I know that your abilities are very focused towards one thing, I can turn you into a pile of ash."

>>23021965
>>[] Continue to resist peacefully.
>>23022039
fire doesn't solve all problems

also stare at her tits

"really you going to play a brother like that? get a little meat on them bones girl"

>>23021972
>>23022039

Maybe Violet is another quest's protagonist!

There could be a Superhuman Rapist Quest going on in another dimension or something.

>>23022095
well then just shift our self to not have genitalia

"I i... can't .."(pulls down pants to reveal ken doll bottom )

>>23022121

Ingenious!

>>23022121
While funny, I don't think that'll solve our problem with her.

>>23022121
its... its to odd not to work worse case she will just nope the fuck out

Keeping my eyes focused on Violet, I touch the urn to rekindle my flames. My hand catches and the fire slowly trails up my arm. Her smile slowly becomes a scowl as she sees I've resorted to violence.

"Violet, I do kind of like you..."

"Then put the flame away and give yourself to me..." She pouts, however she backs away instead of advancing... It seems to be true, evokers are human.. They don't have the same fearlessness as Invokers and Animists...

I expand the flame on my hand, holding it out in front of me, keeping the actual temperature low.

"We can talk, however you need to stop with that right now, I know how you work... You think you'd be able to control an invoker forever?"

Her eyes cease their glow and she glares at me angrily," Hmph, Well if that's how it's going to be...I suppo-"

The console rings and a feminine voice says, "Call for Omar Denis, Call for Omar Denis. Please pick up."

Violet regards me, steps back from again," I'll get that."

Putting her breasts back where they belong and zipping up her halter, she answers the console.

"Violet, that's none of yo-"

"Hello, who are you? I.. uh.. is Omar there?"

"Oh? Who's this Omar?" Violet hums, Katie's on the call.

"Hey, have a guest over, she's a bit crazy but not that bad a girl, what's up?"ill call you back in just a few minuets "

also is the door still open?

(turning to Violette)

look you didn't care enough to visit me when I was hurt and that really hurt. I though we were becoming friends, and and ... you don't think enough of me to not try and mind fuck me. so until you can act mature enough to talk (sigh) I would rather you just leave"

Thank you.

Technically, that would be the most waifu route, since we could create her from concentrated waifu.

Although that might put a huge burden on Omar, since that level of waifu is unnatural.

I've had enough of Violet's antics for this morning, and I've got a bad feeling about this...

Stepping up to the console, I tell Katie," I've got a guest over right now, she's a bit crazy but really not a bad person. Look, I'll call you back in a few minutes, okay?"

Violet stares at the console with a smile," Yes, we just need to finish up here.."

"Oh, alright, well take your time, I'll be at the sands, playing. Omar, meet me there and we can play, okay?"

"Will do Katie." I rub a knuckle into my temple, Violet just had to make this awkward...

The call ends, and I glare at her now," Look Violet, I thought we were on pretty good terms, friends and all.."

"Oh?"

"When I suffered from overconsumption, you didn't visit me, and you obviously don't think well enough of me to not try to force yourself on me. Until you can act mature enough."

I sigh, shaking my head," I would like you to leave."

Violet clenches a fist in front of her chest," Oh.." she says sadly... But then she smiles," I know what'll fix this..." She mumbles and heads out of the door.

What?

>[] Follow her.
>[] Meet up with Katie at the sands.
>[] Call someone
>[] Check training assignments.
>[] Write in.

>>23022442
Meh, I'd rather we Katie than our hand.

>>23022459
[X] Meet up with Katie at the sands.
And explain Violets bullshit to her when we're there.

>>23022459


>[] Check training assignments.

>[] Call someone
Wally

"wally I need some advice are all women her crazy or have I just lost touch with reality ?"

then >[] Meet up with Katie at the sands.

>>23022459
[X] Write in.
>>23022502
Talk to Wally first.
Then do glasswork, then hit the sand pits.

>>23022533
forgot the glass work think we could make two things a egg and the Phoenix?

>>23022565
Maybe, but if we're making a focus it'd probably be strongest if we made one thing out of it. And I'm not entirely sure we have enough material.

With Violet finally gone, I stop using my power. I feel like overall, I've gotten better at resisting her. Though she may have just been scared of the fire.

Either way, I fended her off, and she left of her own accord. I like that. I didn't want to actually hurt her anyway.

I dial for Wallie and he picks up in short order, he's still in his underwear and I see that he's got a pretty hairy chest with such a lanky body, I see his mark of power, it starts from his abdomen, and ends along the line of his chin..

"Hey, hey there Kid, what's up? Pretty early in the morning, isn't it?" He says, sleepily. Geeze how long did they go on last night?

"Wallie, it's almost nine o' clock."

"Aw really? Man... I think I need another hour or two."

"You good to talk?"

"Sure, Kid, what's got you all outta sorts so early, eh?"

I tell him the shit I just went through to get Violet out of my room.

"Ahh kid, really gotta be careful with some of these girls. You know what you went through ta get here.. they may not be as quick to get right in the head. Violet.. man when I picked her up, she was about to make a bunch of soldiers shoot themselves. You'd think that people stay away from her because she wants them to, but it's because she can be a psycho sometimes. Just be careful with he, ok?"

The truth from Wallie comes as a surprise, and it also tells me that when I had been in her room before, she had lied to my face. "I'll be careful. I'm an invoker after all."

"True kid, good luck." The call is hung up.

I turn to the materials and look about my room.Too dangerous to fuse them here. I'll need to use them elswhere. I pick up the parcel, and place some ash in one of the test-vials.

I head to the sands, figuring that there should be enough space to not risk burning anything.

I meet Katie at the sands and tell her about Violet's odd behavior, stressing that I made her leave, and that she was forcing herself on me. Katie kind of smiles as she always does.

"That's... good. I'm glad to hear it.. What're those things for?"

I tell her of my issue, and how I feel that this will be my solution, she smiles at this and touches my hand," Oh, you're going to make it out of glass with your own flame? But.. umm... How will you shape it?"

She rolls her eyes in thought for a moment," You know... I could help with that... Now that I think about it...

>[] Allow Katie to help.
>[] Refuse, this is your work.

>>23022778
>>[] Allow Katie to help.
I would very much appreciate that

>>23022778
[X] Refuse, this is your work.

"No thank you, I've got my hands, and the heat won't bother me. If need be I can make them bigger so I can hold it all while I melt it.

This is really personal for me and I don't mean any offense by this."

If it makes a difference, with how animists use their power, that would mean a part of Katie might be left in it. Conversely, she might take a residual bit of "mother" from the ash.

>>23022832
I already voted, but yeah, I don't want part of her soul stuck in our Focus, might confuse things, and putting part of our mother into her might be just as bad or weird.

>>23022832
do it wt the worst that could happen ?
plus it was her idea

>>23022778
>[] Refuse, this is your work.

Seems risky. We can shape it.

>>23022778
>[] Allow Katie to help.

She's been some of the most friendly towards us and plus, she would have a better control at shaping the glass than we would

>>23022778
we could have her make a mold reduce the risk of anything wrong?bad happening
I want this to look good its for mom

I've decided to namefag for this quest. Also. last post from me tonight, I got class in 6 hours.

>>23022778
politely decline.

>>23022890
I've voted, having her make us a mold is okay, but we don't want her soul to come into contact with the rest of it. Mixing her soul with what we're doing will as >>23022832 says risk cross contamination.

>>23022853
We could set Katie on fire when we go Phoenix, without the happy fire protection we get. We could end up being unprofessional whenever we go Phoenix. We could change her soul to make it more firey or more like our mother.

>>23022903

Good night!

looks like 3 for, 3 against. Compromising to the mold.

>>23022998
I'm okay with that. We just don't want to turn her into our mother, that'd be way too Oedipal for me. I mean, dayumn.

>>23023015

Would be baw as shit if she channeled mom's last memories and told Omar "I love you." Seeing as how mom was far too shot up for last words.

>>23023029
That is also something to avoid, further traumatizing Omar by having his deceased mother speaking through one of his few friends here is unlikely to be good for his already tenuous grip on sanity. And likely creepy for Katie.

Thinking about her offer for a moment, it strikes me that animists put their own soul into their power. I don't think I could let her risk that. I don't know if she'd contaminate the remains, or if they would linger in her..

"I'm sorry, but I need to say no.. I wouldn't want you getting something weird or awful from this." I say, with a kind of sad smile.

Katie wraps her arms around me, an abrupt hug," I wouldn't mind... But I insist on at least making you the mold, I can do that, right?"

I shrug,"Don't see why not..."

"It's settled then, get your things ready!

--------------------------

I hold in my hands, the heated mixture of my mom's ash and the components for selenium ruby glass. The current color, a glowing orange, I pour it into a small mold of sand that Katie made from some of the sand.

After all of it is in, she closes it, and turns it about remotely. Overall, my heat had only brought her up to a sweat, it seems that my control over this form's heat has gotten better.

Katie soon cools the mixture and the end result is a Ruby Phoenix, wings spread, with the ash giving the feathers an additional shade. It's quite detailed for a "homemade" craft, however I admire how it came out.

"It's so pretty.." Katie whispers, as she draws the remaining sand from the surface of the totem.

Regarding it in my own hand, I feel a gentle, motherly warmth pulsating from it that puts me at ease, while kindling my inner flame...

Mother, you'll be with me always, in my heart, soul, and fire.

(Omar has completed his memento! )

(I'm turning in for the night, need an earlier start than usual. However, as per usual, you guys have been awesome. And i'm sorry if this session started a bit slow-ish. Working my head into what's coming soon...)

(Tomorrow night! Grand Ocean Quest continues with Ophelia Reers saving the village! Where next does her profiteering ways lead her? That's for you guys to decide!)

Good night elegan/tg/entlemen!

>>23023186
See you then.

And now we can just catch everything on fire that we want.

Did making a totem for this provide a bonus for our Phoenix form?

Can you tell us if we would have gotten different results if we did it ourself or had Katie help?

Also, can we use our Phoenix form to eat fire instead of just making it?

>>23023237

The totem provides a bonus in stabilizing the transformation. it's more sustainable and easier to control rather than going into the form and being unable to deal with the flames afterward.

The fire is still dangerous, and like to get out of hand... However there's another bonus to it that we'll just have to find out next time.

>>23023283
I think you archived the wrong thread.
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Overhuman
The latest one leads to some One-piece Quest

>>23023283
Cool.

I wonder how long it'll be until Renaissance decides that it's a good idea to test the Rebirth aspect of the Phoenix, because that's going to be awkward.

Also when it says "Body of Flame" does that mean our body exudes fire when Phoenix is on full blast or that our body is literally made of fire. It's important because if we just exude flame someone might be able to throw a tungsten javelin into our heart, if we're made of fire it might just go through.

>>23023298

That's my One Piece Quest I didn't want archived because I was just testing quicker character generation ideas.

Naughty Gol Dranule, The Man Roger.

>>23023298
That is a problem. You might want to rearchive that Dran, put a note saying you archive the wrong thing in the description.

>>23023341

That was my bad, I was looiking at both and took the number from the adress field.

Sorry Law!

>>23023309

When in phoenix, he can become living flame.

For the form, it's an additional switch on/off.
