' Anything that gets your blood racing is probably worth doing. '

I guess I'm not really in the habit of giving advice (if this could even be called advice). I'm not even much of a bookworm or have that much of a thing for words. I just figured everyone has a phrase or quote that matches them pretty well, don't they?

I like this one. Pretty sure I would have liked it at nineteen, too.

Just out of curiosity...

Is there any idea about a defence system or plan of action if, or I guess when, Thiazi attacks again? I feel like this is twice we've been caught off guard. Both times a huge chunk of people had left the city. I don't think that unintentional. Even if it's just something so we can get the kids some place safe, like a bunker. Or somewhere they can go where we can't during a lock down. Since there's always a chance of us turning into the enemy.

[Another flurry of movement and sound, and his face reappears on the video, looking pleased with himself.]

Aha! Found it... let me see, yes, there are quite a few arrays that have to do with concealment... most of them seem to be for a single person or small objects, but there's one here... just a moment...

[He flicks through the pages of some book, though he's holding it at such an angle that she will only be able to see the pages turning, if that.]

Yes, here we are now. A-hem... it's called 'amnesia' and it seems that its purpose is to make someone forget why they were walking into a room. Perhaps we could apply that to the walls of wherever we put the children? Perhaps if we tweaked it a bit, mmm...

[He's only half talking to her at this point.]

[ ... At least she's used to him (or Him) prattling off as he is. You just sort of have to work with it. ]

Definitely modified. We're not gonna go and have the kids forgetting anything. ...Maybe teach them how t'activate it once they've gotten in and safe? We'd just have to make sure none of us try an' go in after them. Could teach it to the kids, I s'pose.

It doesn't last long, apparently... something about... [He squints a little at the handwriting.] Erm... daily? Reapply daily. The array that is.

Hnn... [He taps the book against his chin, then smiles brightly at the bracelet.] Well! It's far from the ideal solution for what you have in mind, but it's at least a place to start, and at least it should give us something to work with, should that... horrific event happen once again.

[Personally he's just hoping the Gods took a hint from that fiasco and have found a way to better safeguard the souls that are currently in their care. He really doesn't want to attack people again.]

Or anything like it.

Mind you, if we could modify it... Make it easier for the kids to use. Could be good.

[ Well, yeah. She's going to get pretty damn pissed off if the gods don't start stepping up their game. They have to have something they could use as a defensive something. ]

I'm certainly willing to give it a try. And it's not difficult to use whatsoever. You just have to memorize the order in which the symbols go, and draw them on properly. There are quite a few children here would could handle such a simple task with ease.

[Alice, for example.]

And then it's merely a matter of willing it to work. Simple enough for anyone who knows how to use their powers here, though if necessary I believe there may be a way to switch the activation sequence to a verbal rather than a mental trigger.

Well then it's easy t'use. Still doesn't help much if we can't modify it. I don't really fancy walking in to check up on them and forgetting it all completely.

[ She's pouting at you Six. It means help her figure out how and who to talk to to get this shit modded. ]

As I said, I'll give it a try, though I'm only just starting to learn about them. You may have better luck speaking to Aladdin... he's a child, but he seems to be in charge of all things runic around here.

[ INWARD FORCED SIGH. More children. She doesn't hate them or anything, but god, why are there so many. Can't it just be a teenager or an adult or something. ]

Guess I'll give him a ring at some point. You seem to know a fair bit, though. Wouldn't you be better off asking? I'm not sure I'd know what I'd even be talking about.

Oh. Well, I suppose I could do, yes. Though do not mistake my ability to read from a book with actual expertise with these... arrays. I only just started studying this.

[Who would have thought that he would ever end up studying magic...]

But yes, I will be sure to ask about it the next time I get a chance.
