✿6 [Accidental Voice / Action]

[redstringed]

[Voice]

*The journal starts picking up the sounds of a fight in progress, as if someone had dropped their journal accidentally.*  Noel, get back!

*Then, odd whooshes of air and the sound of metal striking metal - but they're interrupted by a crack of thunder. There's silence for a few moments, and then a second, louder clap of thunder, followed shortly by the sound of furniture breaking and another voice - some might recognize it as Noel Vermillion - shouting.*  Rachel! Ahh...

*Silence, interrupted only by the sound of metal footsteps. But then the first voice speaks again, though it seems slightly weaker.* You dare...?! Do... not turn your backs... on me...!

Baden Baden Lil--

*The speaker is suddenly cut off, and the journal is splattered by little crimson droplets, as though someone was writing in it. There's a thump and the sound of something - or someone - being dragged away, and then silence. The feed cuts out.*

[Action]

*Where are you? What are you doing? It doesn't matter, because there's a young girl dressed in a frilly gothic lolita dress teleporting near to you with a shower of roses. She looks rather beaten-up, and is clutching a bleeding wound at her stomach.

Needless to say, Rachel does not look happy. This wasn't where she wanted to end up.*

***

((OOC: So, Rachel tried to get some revenge on the Malnosso by attacking the droids coming to kidnap Noel. She failed spectacularly. So she's wounded, unable to focus on her teleportation, and she's taken a heavy blow to her pride. This won't end well.))

Elemental magic. Specifically the seven elements attributed to the days of the week.

[redstringed]

Intriguing. I have yet to encounter that in my world, or any other.

And healing magic would fall under which day?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

With as many elements as I command, you learn to improvise.

[redstringed]

You are no doubt aware that that does not answer my question.

Days, then.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

I did answer it.

What particular element doesn't matter. I can combine them to form new spells. That is how my healing spells work.

[redstringed]

Perhaps, but that still implies that the base components of the spell are governed by your seven-day elements, does it not?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Yes. But there are numerous combinations that can generate that effect.

[redstringed]

Is there any difference in function between related permutations, or are they merely different routes to the same end?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

To give an example, my basic healing spell is a combination of the Sun and Wood elements. I have another that is a mixture of Water and Metal.

[redstringed]

And do they behave in identical manners, or is there some marked difference between the two?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

There are slight differences.

[redstringed]

Such as?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

The Water and Metal sign spell has no pain relieving abilities.

[redstringed]

Then why on earth would you ever use that spell if it is so markedly inferior?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

It heals wounds much more quickly.

[redstringed]

Hm. Then efficiency at the expense of comfort.

And which would you have used on me?

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

The Wood and Sun.

[redstringed]

Ah, how generous of you.

Nevertheless, the wound is... already healing.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

I see. It would have been quicker had I helped.

[redstringed]

Perhaps it would have. My answer would have remained the same nonetheless.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Stubbornness is not a trait considered pleasant.

[redstringed]

I do not often account for the sensibilities of lesser beings. Mine is the pride of my house.

[1week-wizard.livejournal.com]

Pride before the fall.
