OC DUEL THREAD ACT 2

the spark refocuses and looks at the maid excitedly

'imagine a constantly shifting thing set of scales, not just in balance but in form'

'now imagine it has three main arms instead of two, one white as the brightest star in the sky, one black as the darkest spot in space, and one purple like the blood of a sea dweller troll on a mandragora flower'

'here i think i have a model'

the spark reaches into the duat, the sparks hand disappearing as the spark does so


after a short while rummaging around the spark pulls out a small tower of living metal, constantly shifting in shape, it seems comprised of various elements and energies

'the spires are a physical representation of the balance of the Sentient Elements in the multirealmverse, this-'

the spark says, holding the structure up

'is the closest you will ever get to seeing everything'

'well, at least, the real one is'

The Maid's eyes widen. "That's beautiful."

the spark looks up

'yeah, the Librarian made these for all of us who went into simulation so we would not forget where we came from'

the spark looks empty and old for a moment, so very old and so very sad

'although that didnt work for some of my friends'

as soon as the moment happens it passes and the spark jumps in the air

'so seeming as though you are much less crazy and murder prone than that star, want to go mess around? i got a spare scythe'

the spark says, pulling out two flying scythes

'want to test your skills?'

he says, grinning his same old grin

"I'd love to, but I can guarantee I'll be shoddy at best."

(("so very old and so very sad"

Was that a Doctor Who reference? It feels like it was.))

((he knows of the doctor, although much later in life he truly understands the pain and sorrow the old time lord felt))

((basically yes xP))

'oh no worry with that i can put a skateboard cover on it and i could always hold you up to make sure you do not fall off'

the spark says, pulling out the cover and clipping it in place

"That's very kind of you, but I kind of doubt I need to worry about falling." The Maid smiles.

the spark laughs

'haha i guess that is a good point, sorry in the session i was last in, my fifteenth if memory serves, i was the only one to god teir so had to get used to the lack of flight'

'rather awkward when the only safe spot you can portal someone too is far above skaia's surface'

The Maid winces. "Yeah, that sounds bad. Wait--fifteen sessions?"

The Mage moves closer and asks if he could take another look at that spire replica

((I thought the Mage wasn't in their general area? Did I miss something?))

((He wasn't, which is why he's moving towards you now))

((shau isnt with us its me and bb))

((also you couldnt see the spire cause it wasnt hidden))

the spark stops for a second and slaps his head

'right i forgot, you humans did not get a glitched sb game'

'or at least you have not found out yet if your game was glitched'

'basically the final reward was glitched in our session, the only option we had was to reset'

'we replaced other players from sessions that never succeeded, in any timeline'

'we were seperated completely, i can not remember the last time i saw my heart bound'

the spark says, looking sad again

((If heart bound means what I think it means, oh god that's so fucking tragic))

"Oh, that's... That's really awful. I'm so sorry."

((1 My mistake, I meant that I was coming towards you and BB))

((2 He doesn't just know things that are hidden, he's basically been eavesdropping on you from afar, ever since you two started talking))

((3 Though yes, he didn't see it, he only heard you talk about it))

The Mage floats even closer, repeating his request.

((oh okie oj, and bb its sort of like, god i cant believe im about to say this someone shoot me, the werewolves thing in twilight so yeh hella tragic))

the spark shrugs

'yeah well i know i will meet with them again, i met ectobiologist whilst he was doing his reunion tour and he said he met with most his original session once'

the spark looks up to the mage

'oh hey i do not think we have met before'

the spark holds out his hand

'greetings'

(())

((what?))

The Mage returns the greeting and agrees, the two of them have not yet talked.
The Mage then looks at the hand, unsure what to do.

((ooooh okie i get ya thankie xP))

the spark chuckles a little and lowers his hand

'been a while since you had any sentient interaction right?'

the spark grins his cheshire grin

The Mage thinks for a bit and replies that it has been a while since he last talked with anyone with arms. He doesn't talk much with the Carapacians on his meteor.

the spark nods

'i had a session like that once'

'anyway you wanted to see something?'

The Mage asks if he could take a look at the spire replica, it seemed interesting

The Maid feels like her heart is breaking for the Spark. Then she starts giggling. Heartbreak. It's a pun.

((That's basically my thought process though, not gonna lie

I'll feel really sad, then realize I thought something funny and start laughing.))

((that is an amazing mindset bb and one the spark tries to recreate))

'oh right here have a look'

*the spark takes the facsimile out of the duat and shows it to the mage*
