Digital Domestic Saga
Who: Serph, Cielo and YOU!
When: Late morning
Where: Outside the Embryon Base, near the forest
Style: Starting in action, but anything goes!
Status: OPEN!
[If you happen to be near the the forest quadrant, then you might feel the ground shake a little. Pretty strange, huh? But nothing to worry about, right?
The localised miniature quake can be traced back to a rather plain looking three storey building that has a grey flag with a bright orange stripe hanging from a pole sticking out of a window. A short distance away from the building, there's two people standing around a hole in the ground that certainly hadn't been there just moments before. A wheelbarrow containing a rosebush with orange flowers sits not far from them, and all along the ground are unopened sacks of dirt and a plethora of those mugs, some of which have fallen onto their sides. There's a bag containing seed packets and beans on the ground, too, and a recording of Sheik's Song of Healing can be heard playing on loop from a SFC nearby.
Serph eyes the hole for a little while longer before nodding to Cielo, giving him the signal to use another Magni Bomb. Which he does. Enthusiastically.
...That sure is another miniature quake happening. But the hole looks big enough for the rose bush, now.
Yep, this is what they've been saving their Starfish Tokens for. Approach?]

The reason so many pots for planting have holes in the bottom is for draining - without one, the soil can not be rid of excess water, and one tends to start growing moss more than original plant. May not be hard to find a good balance; more accustomed to planting in the ground than in pots and maintaining them.
no subject
These.
[If too much water is a problem, they'll just have to be careful to not add to much.]
no subject
If we don't water excessively, will that be fine?
[Otherwise, they'll just have to find a way to make holes that won't shatter the mugs]
no subject
These may be more suited for the ground than a pot...
no subject
The beans? We could find a spot for them.
[More bombs? More bombs.]
no subject
Serph's looking out at the land within their territory. If they make too many holes, there won't be decent ground to walk on.]
Would a garden bed be sufficient instead?
no subject
If you can cut a segment free, I have a formula that may be able to lift a section out of the way.
no subject
...can we do that, Serph?
[Bombs are probably not the right tool for this kind of thing.]
no subject
He addresses Duke.]
Do you have a method for cutting concrete? Otherwise I can try something.
[...Because there's the danger of Cielo smacking his face in the concrete if he attempted cutting with Dyaus.]
no subject
Not intended for such use however....
no subject
You don't have to if you don't want to.
no subject
magicallygrow back the next time he transformedor something DDS YOU'RE NOT VERY CONSISTENT WITH THESE THINGS.Serph nods in agreement with Cielo's words.]
Let me try first.
[He doesn't wait for affirmation before the tattoo on his face glows blue and he transforms, the blade of his right arm out.]
no subject
Oh.
That's somewhat fascinating. If a bit painful looking.
This is curious staring - most definitely not a transformation similar to those he's used to.
He steps aside, looking about. Wherever you plan this. ]
no subject
Cielo just stands and watches, go Serph, go!]
no subject
... Aw hell let's just stab it, okay?
The blade sinks into the concrete a fair way, but trying to actually cut the concrete doesn't work out so well. Maybe he should have used the force from the flicking mechanism in his arm instead? ...Either way, one of the backward pointing spikes in his blade is hooked in the concrete and preventing him from just pulling the blade out. Serph wiggles it a bit, but nope, looks like his arm's stuck.
This seems awkward.]
/all the late
... what is the angle of entry - [ Or maybe he'll just edge over, completely ignoring that Serph looks really weird and dangerous at the moment to peer at the concrete. ]
.... Possible to angle a cut so that the surrounding concrete is cut free, freeing you... your? from... [ Don't mind him, he's just being a bit technical about this. ]
... Likely can aid, how far into the concrete do you judge that the end is?
no subject
Should be about this much, ja?
[He indicates with his hands an approximate length. He's seen those arm blades enough times to know how long they are.]
no subject
Serph reverts back to his human form. And since he doesn't usually have arm blades as a human, the blade that's stuck sort of... disappears from the ground. NOTHING WRONG, NOW.
Turning to address Duke as if he hadn't just gotten himself embarrassingly stuck.]
Your weapon might have more success, if it's sharp enough.
[Because Serph doesn't see anything on it that'll get caught in the concrete like his blade had.]
no subject
... Perhaps. [ It's a weird blade, and inconsistently sharp.
Either way, he turns his grip and drives it into the concrete roughly where Serph had left off his cutting attempts. That's a somewhat uncomfortable noise, steel(?) cutting into concrete. Wiggle it a little bit - .. it's doing okay. ]
... a second thought, high pressure water. [ His blade is spitting out red light in ribbons and.. cutting.. better, but still offering another way. ]
no subject
High pressure water?
[What does Duke mean by that? There's a way to break concrete using water? To Cielo, the phrase brings up memories of swimming through water pumps.]
no subject
He has no idea what Duke means by high pressure water, though. Since Cielo's already asked for clarification, Serph just tilts his head. An indication that he, too, doesn't understand.]
no subject
The way water wears down anything - normally slow, takes ages to create a canyon - high pressure water speeds the process.
no subject
Then how do we use it here?
no subject
I only have ice magic.
[Which might be difficult to convert to high pressure water. Maybe Duke has magic like that?]
We have an outside tap, but no hose.
no subject
... Cannot think of a way. Aware of a formula - spell - that may be of use, however.. not one that I have used.
