Nah. Go tell her yourself. She'll probably be embarrassed and that'd be excellent to see, but it's not my place to be handing around your gratitudes, Kitkat.
[ adorable. ]
Mm. I wanted the device to use it with but... you don't need a conduit for this kind of stuff? Worth keeping in mind if you have something you want too.
Two different things. I guess this one works more like magic? But it's based off an Art. Arts need an ACRUS and an orbment to work, whereas magics natural, works differently, and limited to a small group of people.
[ he folds his arms. ]
ARCUS is a comms device. It's small and portable, and you can put orbments -- like... little marbles, I guess? -- in it to use different Arts, depending on which orbments you're using. Vio said I can buy it back if I want the feel to be the same, but it'd be a voucher I could use somewhere else, you know?
[ trails doesn't explain SHIT apart from when it does and it explains so much i forget the explanation and circle back to trails doesn't explain SHIT ]
Exactly my point. Save a voucher, use it on something else. Everyone's happy, especially me with more vouchers.
[ thank you for your knowledge and understanding in these trying times WHERE ARE YOUR VACUUMS EREBONIA, YOU HAVE WAR MECHS ]
The script was three vouchers, and the healing shenanigan was six. If I add a voucher each week I think I can make the healing more potent too, which if people are gonna keep disappearing like you did, might not be a bad thing to have up my sleeve.

Well. You can tell her I said. . . thanks, or whatever.
[TSUN TSUN]
Did you buy back some kind of special healing magic, then?
[does Crow have Tear]

Hey, I only asked you because you said it needed to be a secret! [:T] And I don't have any magic to buy back, so. . . I'll use them for other things.
no subject
[ hmm. ]
Think outside the box. Just because you don't have any magic to buy back doesn't mean you can't buy magic.
no subject
[what if she thanks Viola and Viola doesn't understand???]
[that second part, however, piques her interest]
How are they going to give me powers I've never had before?
no subject
[ hm. ]
By asking nicely? I normally have to use something to cast Arts, but here we are. Look Kitkat, no ARCUS. [ he waves his hands slightly. ]
no subject
. . . what's an Arts.
What's an ARCUS? You're using words I've never heard of in that context before.
no subject
... Ughhh. Arts are Arts. You cast them through the ACRUS. I can't really describe them any other way because that's the context?
But what I did I'd usually need something to help me do it. That thing being the ARCUS.
no subject
Was the whole healing thing you did an. . . "Arts?" Because that seems more like magic to me.
And the ARCUS is the conduit? The catalyst?

no subject
. . . okay. . .
[but the ARCUS, at least, mirrors technology she has back home, so. she knows what a comms device is!!!]
And yeah, that makes sense. If you can use the-- Art-- without the conduit, then why waste a voucher on a conduit, you know?
no subject
Exactly my point. Save a voucher, use it on something else. Everyone's happy, especially me with more vouchers.
no subject
Soooo. . . how much did the "script" and the "healing" thing cost you? That's two pretty big purchases.
no subject
The script was three vouchers, and the healing shenanigan was six. If I add a voucher each week I think I can make the healing more potent too, which if people are gonna keep disappearing like you did, might not be a bad thing to have up my sleeve.
no subject
. . .
Wait, so you had nine vouchers?
[KIND OF POUTING ABOUT THIS TBH]
no subject
I didn't buy anything last week, don't sulk.
no subject
I only got three last week, and two this week. How are you all earning so many?!
no subject
2/2
no subject
[grumble grumble grouch]
. . . I haven't done my extra credit, though.
[for REASONS]
no subject
Do it then, it gets you a voucher.
Okay hold on, you did … debate and the clone fucking task? [ say it louder for the people on the other side of the dorm, crow ]
no subject
[GROANS]
Yes. I did all four. . . clone tasks.
And I took part in the debate, too. I also went on that stupid little adventure.
[so why only two vouchers, seasonality. why!!]
