[video]
[The video's not very clear when it comes on; it's dark and gloomy, showing hints of thick dust and cobwebs--a glimpse of a window reveals deep fog--and then it shifts to Rita's wide-eyed face. When she speaks, she's trying very hard to pretend she's calm...and failing pretty horribly.]
I-is anyone else stuck in this weirdo place? I mean, it's not like I need help or anything, but-
[A loud creak and sudden clatter of footsteps interrupts her, the shutters to the window abruptly blowing open, and she jumps with a yelp.] Aah--! Uh--it's not sc--just where's the exit, already?!
[Maybe realizing that the video's still recording her little freak-out, she quickly shuts it off.]
[ooc: Tags slow forever. ._. Sorry!]

action; ♥!
[ At the moment, all he does is watch silently the mana flow in a mesmerised way. He just assumed that if mana was harmful, Rita would know somehow and warn him, and knowing mana is always in he air makes him think it can't be that bad...
While he paper starts to turn colours, he thinks of something- ] How exact do you think the amount of mana has to be when you make cores?
action; ♥!
[She doesn't think there's any danger. Not normally, at least. Even aer was only problematic when it became extremely thick.
At his question, though, she's quick to reply.] That depends on the complexity of the core. The paper functions as a vague estimate--and that's good enough for most of what I've been doing so far--but for some blastia, it needs to be really precise.
action; ♥!
[ And really, Tyr is only apprehensive because it looks like thick smoke. ]
Hm... [ He doesn't know how to feel about that. He thought the paper would be more reliable... But knowing the light is simple, he doesn't feel worried so much about what he's doing. ] Is that another reason you can't make large blastia here?
action; ♥!
[At least nothing's burning yet...]
Yeah, it is. Even bodhi blastia are a bit tricky...Of course, I can still manage those no problem.
action; ♥!
[ ..."Yet"?
Rita's confidence makes him smile. ] Of course you can. I thought you could handle anything before... [ The paper looks purple enough now, and he goes ahead and cuts off the flow. Not so hard! ]
action; ♥!
[And hopefully none at all...!
Her smile turns to just a bit of tsun--though she notes that he's doing good--and she crosses her arms.] Only "before"?
action; ♥!
[ At least Tyr has a water rune-! ]
Ah, I thought you were admitting you couldn't do everything just now... [ He can still work while he talks to her. Putting in the rubber stopper isn't the least bit difficult, either. ]
action; ♥!
[So he has nothing to fear!!]
H-hey! I never said there was anything I couldn't do!
action; ♥!
[ ...Sorta. ;_; ]
Oh. That's too bad... [ How many millilitres was of binder was it again? He guesses he'll eyeball it... Getting the measuring cylinder... ]
action; ♥!
[:< /holds]
Huh? What do you mean, too bad? [She'll be keeping an eye on him to make sure he uses the right amount!]
action; ♥!
[ /hugs back ;~; ]
I thought you were were going to be modest for once... [ Good idea, since he's not pouring it that slowly. ]
action; ♥!
[;3;]
Are you saying I'm arrogant? [Since he's mentioned things like that before, and she frowns--but partially because she's watching him pour.] Careful--that's toxic, remember? Do you remember how much you need?
action; ♥!
[ ;v; ]
No, I'm saying... [ But he stops, and he does remember now that she mentions it. And he's not even wearing gloves now. ] ...Remind me.
action; ♥!
[She'd keep arguing if the amount wasn't more important. She taps her open notebook which is lying on a nearby table.] Fifty. Anyway, when you're working with lots of materials, it's fine to refer to the amounts worked out before.
[Of course, it's all in her handwriting...]
action; ♥!
[ He measures out fifty units more carefully now. ] I'll take notes to remember all this later, then... [ He doesn't even need to see her book to know he won't be able to read it. ]
action; ♥!
[While she'd keep insisting there's nothing wrong with her writing.] Then I'll show you the calculations later. It'd be different depending on the type of core and the amount of mana.
action; ♥!
[ She's so stubborn-! ] Ah, right. We won't be making many more of these, huh? [ Thinking about that makes him smile - it makes him think they'll make more blastia together. ]
action; ♥!
[Always!!] Probably not, unless Estelle or Yuri needs one. [She doesn't quite think along the same lines--as much as she does believe they'll build others together--so his smile confuses her.] What is it?
action; ♥!
I guess... It'd be a waste to just make them if they didn't want one, though... [ And since he's about to add the binder to the mana, he tells her- ] You know what this is.
action; ♥!
So only if they do. [aksdj Tyr is a jerk.] Huh?
action; ♥!
[ Gosh Rita. He starts stirring. ] It's binder. Fifty millilitres. Are you still tired?
action; ♥!
[She scowls and sputters and definitely thinks he's a jerk!!] Wha--that's not what I was--just pay attention to what you're doing!
action; ♥!
[ He looks back down and - oh, should he add the crystal now? Or is he going too quickly? Too slowly? ...It's okay if the stirring rod clinks against the glass, right? ] Why are you getting so worked up?
action; ♥!
[Totally okay! Even if it makes annoying clinking sounds.] I'm not!
action; ♥!
[ Hmm, maybe he should add the crystal now. So he stops stirring for a moment to take one from the jar. ] You weren't like this a second ago...
