[ He has a lot of feelings about Gods. Hard not to, when there’s some in your head. He feels especially bad for the ones who were wronged. He feels especially bad for the Arbor. ]
Of course. [ But now isn’t the time to think about that. He’s back to his infinite cheer. ] What is it?
Um... Is there somewhere with more open space... Could we go outside for a bit..? [ Caoimhe stops their little dance and squeezes his hands, to move a way a bit. Pulling out her new lyre and holding it in each of her hands. ]
[ Oh! Okay. No more dancing. That's fine. He'll just nod and start to head for the door. He seems equal parts curious and excited, honestly. Magic? More magic?? He'd like to see. He still doesn't understand how it works, but- ]
[ Caoimhe notices that he seems to fall in a more chipper mood. Almost instantly at that, she wipes the last of her tears off her face and gives a final sniffle. Her nerves taxing on one hand, but finding comfort with her friend and wanting to show them something potentially new... She pushes onwards and clamors outside with him until she finds a spot where it is open and wont potentially hurt anything. ]
okay...
[ Caoimhe holds the harp in her hand, and with a manifestation within her chest. Imagines it far larger, it transforms in her hand into a lap harp now and sits against her hip. ]
I-If... If it goes bad... Could you - - ? Make sure to help fight with me?
I am unsure... But... [ With resolve in her voice, she begins to play a tune on the harp. The strings delicately play, making the most crystal clear sound ever a harp can make. ] I know... It will help you.
[ Each stroke of the string, reverberates into the air, and the beautiful tune played is that of a gentle summer song. With each cord played a warm wind passes by them but it is cool to the touch as if it were to rain at any moment. When her eyes shut she seems to imbue magic alongside her harp, and within a matter of moments. What Mizuki will see is the form of a raindrop small in size and quality - become suddenly large. Collecting water from nowhere in particular but within itself -
It reaches about 10ft in diameter and bubbles itself before them both. A whole bubble of water. It seems to bounce about buoyant in its conception, and whirl in circles on the spot. It has no eyes and takes no shape currently but what Mizuki hears right after is the sound of some deranged gurgling akin to the rumble of ocean waves, or something inherently inhuman. ]
Eh? Eh? Where am I? What am I doing here? [ It speaks Primordial, and echoes these words to no one in particular. ]
[ Caoimhe stops her music playing and seems rather excited suddenly!! ]
OH! It worked!!! It worked!! H-Hello! Mizuki!! Look!!!!
Mizuki has absolutely no idea what's going on, but Caoimhe said "help fight" just moments before, so... Mizuki is absolutely chucking his harpoon-umbrella at this thing. Especially after it gurgles like that. No, no, no, no, nu-uh, not here, not now. ]
W-Wait stop!! [ Caoimhe attempts to step into the fray though the poor bubble was already hit by the Umbrella. It churns its body, having been hit very hard, and seems to start quivering fearful of what had just happened. ]
Attack? Attack? Attack? Attack? No? No? Why did they attack? I just got here. I should attack... [ Gurgle gurgle... ]
[ Caoimhe has, unfortunately, been subjected to Mizuki's nat1 made the mistake of not really explaining to Mizuki what she intends to do. Moreover, has told him to prepare for a fight, which already had him on the offensive. Maybe it's that sort of negative combination, then, that sets off something inside of Mizuki? He doesn't immediately pounce on the creature or anything like that since he will heed Caoimhe's request for now, but just his posture makes it abundantly clear that he is unhappy. ]
What is that? Why can't We feel it...? What did you do? [ It speaks in a tongue native to the Seaborn, yet They are making him bristle at the sound. Perhaps because communication and thought in his language is often also accompanied through other means in the hivemind? ] ...We don't like it, Caoimhe.
[ Caoimhe looks over to the Elemental and seems to apologize to it profusely. She clasps her hands together and with a break in her concentrates on the weave. The elemental disperses and the water from whence it came from lessense until it finally diminishes entirely.
Once it is gone, she is hesitant but looks toward Mizuki with nothing but concern for him and his wellbeing. ]
I-It is an elemental - o-on my realm... It is powerful magic, I met one before in my travels but only once and heard of their powers through old text but... I did not think I would be able to summon one myself until I started to work more and more with this Harp I acquired.
[ Caoimhe turns the Harp into a Lyre and shows it to the other. ]
D-Do you need me to do anything, I am so sorry. I was hopeful that.. The water Elemental would help you with your issues in needing to be in water so much. I am so sorry, I did not think it would turn out to be so - - horrifying an experience. T-Tell me what I can do to help!
[ Mizuki should be fine with this, but he is shaking. Not because of what happened, but rather the very loud, angry waves in his head. For the most part, they stay internal, but Caoimhe gets the smallest taste of We Many as Mizuki speaks. ]
Abomination. We should've... No, no you're overreacting. It's fine. Is this really important to you?
[ ... ]
Ah- it's alright, Caoimhe, you didn't do anything wrong, We just misunderstood your intentions. Sorry. Were you startled?
No.. No.. [ She shakes her head, thinking the comments were a bit confusing to follow but she pushes with an overarching acceptance of it. ]
I... No it's... I did not want you to hurt it because... If you did then it may have surely, turned on us both. [ Thankfully its SUMMON elemental and not CONJURE elemental. ] I am just glad no one was hurt, I am so sorry Mizuki...
[ She comes closer hoping to help offer her hands or body to lean on. ]
I'm alright, Caoimhe. You don't need to be sorry. Just, you know, maybe next time tell me what you plan on doing so I can be a little more ready...?
[ That seems to calm the storm in his head a bit. Maybe that isn't surprising, since it is the Arbor's jobs to be able to effortlessly soothe the waves.
Despite the fact his shaking stopped, he still is more than happy to give her a hug. ]
You were thinking of me, though? That's very kind of you.
I-I was... When I learned I could summon the Elemental, I thought it would be key.. In helping you, if there was an emergency. [ She wont let go of him!! She will hug him and rub his shoulders. ] I probably should have mentioned that... S-Sorry... Our magics are so different to one another, though your response, would not be so different from those in my own realm too.
"Magic"? Do you think I can use magic? That's really kind of you, but I cannot. Even the thing that's close to "magic" in my world doesn't assimilate with me, so...
[ Pat pat... ]
It's alright, though. I hope I didn't scare your friend too much.
Ah... No.. I... Thought perhaps the water elemental... Could help keep you moist if you needed to jump into something immediately. [ She shakes her head though, uncertain herself realy. ] Mm... I believe that was the one I met a long time ago when I first started my Journey after meeting with the King... But it was my first time... Summoning it as well..
