Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Aesthetic, Texture, and HwM acknowledge Flicker. "Any news on them?" West chuckles, A lighthearted sound. "No problem. Aesthetic does that ALL the time. No need to apologize. Umm... Do you mind not telling anyone about Completion?"
Stardust She/Her Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Coil laughs lightly too. “Of course I won’t. I promise.” She turns a little somber. “D-do you mind not telling anyone about my past? I haven’t really told anyone… Star knows a bit, but not everything…” Flicker flares out her pattern. “They’re holding hands and sharing secrets. It’s great! They kicked me out before I could hear too much though… I guess I shouldn’t have revealed myself.” Ryil comes over. “Hi,” he says. “I see you have been manipulating Coil, Flicker. Or at least been playing matchmaker.”
Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 23 Posted May 23 "Coil, I won't tell anyone, it's not my information to share." He pauses, then adds meekly, "I didn't know you liked me like I like you."
Stardust She/Her Posted May 23 Posted May 23 Coil smiled. “I didn’t know you liked me like I liked you!” Then, after a moment, she asked, “What can we do so that I don’t get burned by you? Is there something I can do? I mean the bandages work, but it’s not a permanent solution.”
Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 24 Posted May 24 (edited) West thinks. "I mean, I'm made entirely of plasma... so it would just need to cool down really quickly to stop burning anything, or be covered in an insulator. Wood, glass, plastic, stone..." Edited May 24 by Through The Living Ketek
Stardust She/Her Posted May 24 Posted May 24 "Hmm..." Coil says, thinking. "I'll have to see what Star has, but for now I guess the bandages work." She tightens her grip on West's hand a bit as if to emphasize her point.
Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 25 Posted May 25 "Yeah, I guess. I wish I didn't need it to not hurt you..." He looks down. Storming plasma body.
Stardust She/Her Posted May 25 Posted May 25 "It's okay," Coil says. "It's not your fault. I... have things that happen that are out of my control too. You just... have to let it go."
Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 26 Posted May 26 (edited) An idea pops into West's head. Hey Ketek, what do you think will happen if you and @CoderDrag0n8 combine Bondsmithing and Conduction? Uhhh... Why? If we can get the outside of my body to cool down a lot, I'll be able to be with Coil without risking a burn! @CoderDrag0n8 Edited May 26 by Through The Living Ketek

"But could we keep the air around him cold even if he is moving?" He produces a small stone sphere from his pocket, and channels the heat out of it. "Here, try it on this." @CoderDrag0n8 Edited May 28 by Through The Living Ketek

The sphere stays cold.

Ketek rolls the sphere on the ground. The sphere stays cold still. "So it works in motion, huh!" "West? You might want to see this." West jogs over.

This has a large amount of applications, especially the more efficient you are at lightweaving. With enough practice, it can do pretty much anything." Coder smiles. "I think you can even truthbond a lightweaving of empty space. With enough practice, you don't even need any lightweavings and can just go straight to the truthbonding, truthbonding already in action practices, or truthbonding a surge from nothing."

West strides up. "So did it work?' "It did on this thing." Ketek holds up the stone sphere. While West is distracted he presses his palm on West's arm and sucks the heat from the surrounding air. "Gah!" West shivers. "A bit of warning?" "Sorry. @CoderDrag0n8, a bit of help?"

Coder says, truthbonding the reaction. "I have to do it a bit slower on sentient things, cause changing the definition of what is and isn't true can do some messy stuff to the investiture making up consciousness. But don't worry, I have it under control."
Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 29 Posted May 29 West looks at Ketek. "Are you sure this is safe?" "West, you asked for this, not me. And he says he's got it under control."

Coder asks, moving in to touch West, using his eyes to ask for permission.
Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 29 Posted May 29 (edited) West flinches back. "I'm good! No thanks!" Edited May 29 by Through The Living Ketek

As soon as Coder comes in contact with West, west feels a connection to... something. The process keeping him here. "I'll be on my way. See ya later! The bond might take a bit to keep going, but it should keep you safe."
Keteᛕ He/Him/His Posted May 29 Posted May 29 West shudders, but realizes his feet don't leave small marks on the floor anymore. He then jogs back to Coil. "Coil! Guess what? It worked! I won't burn you anymore!" @Through The Living Star
Stardust She/Her Posted May 29 Posted May 29 11 hours ago, Through The Living Ketek said: "Coil! Guess what? It worked! I won't burn you anymore!" Coil's eyes widen, and she slowly unwinds the bandage from her hand. "Are you sure?" she asks hesitantly. She slowly extends her hand, offering it to West. Quote Guys, right now all I can think about is the one scene like this in Elemental.
