It promptly began measuring Silk as the old man began explaining about how a wand chooses its wizard and that the perfect match is essential. Silk frowned as the eager old man started buzzing around him. "Just don't measure my nose, it's embarrassing."

"Just don't measure my nose, it's embarrassing." “Part of the process,” Ollivander responded, tugging boxes off the shelves. After another minute he snapped his fingers, the tape measure returning to his hand. ”We’ll start with this,” he said cheerfully. “Willow and Phoenix feather, 12”, swishy. Give it a try.” He offered up the wand.

THAT was the best thing you could come up with?"
Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted January 21, 2021 Author Posted January 21, 2021 As Ollivander offered wands to Silk, his magical tape measure began measuring Kelsier, then David. ”Curious.” The old man noted. “You aren’t quite alive, are you?” Kelsier smirked, hazel eye cold. “Alive enough, old man.” Ollivander nodded. “Oh, certainly that. But the wand... hmm...” He trailed off, returning his attention to Silk.

Then pointed it straight at David "PchOw" he said as he gave it a flick, having absolutely no idea what would happen. I should of done more research he thought as a hot gust of wind left the wand, speeding towards its target. Hot wind? that's the best you could come up with Mr. Wand? Pathetic. "I have a feeling that this wand isn't quite right."

"I have a feeling that this wand isn't quite right." Ollivander quickly snatched the wand away, handing over another and another building up a small mountain of wands. AlFufteen minutes later he handed Silk yet another wand. “Dogwood and phoenix feather, 9 and 5/8ths inches. Strong, but flexible. Give it a try.”

He waved it lazily at his shadow, grinning with nostalgia as the dark mass zipped away from his body. "This is more like." he said, tapping his wand in approval.

Besides, what I do far surpassed the bounds of mere mischief years ago, one cannot classify my art under the guise of simple mischief.

Kingsdaughter613 she/her Posted January 25, 2021 Author Posted January 25, 2021 @Narcoleptic Axolotl if you don’t respond by tomorrow I’m going to assume you found your wand and switch to Kelsier.
Narcoleptic Axolotl he/him Posted January 26, 2021 Posted January 26, 2021 Quote Sorry about that. My real life has been a bit busy. Xanatos selected a wand and slowly lifted it out of the box. With a quick flourish, he pointed it at a lamp, which went dark and promptly started floating upward as if it were weightless. Suddenly, it crashed back down. "That doesn't seem right." Xanatos replaced the wand and picked up another. He figured he'd know he had the right wand when it produced an effect he intended. He waved this wand in the direction of the same lamp, which slid a few inches in his direction, then came to an abrupt halt. "No . . ." He tried a third wand. This time, nothing at all happened. On the sixth wand Xanatos tested, the lamp finally lit up again. By now it was almost unrecognizable as a lamp, but old Ollivander could no doubt fix it in an instant. This wand was short, bright in color, and extremely well polished, to the point that Xanatos could hear a faint squeaking as he ran his finger along its length. It balanced well in his hand, and most importantly, it felt right. "This is the one."

Malleable, but with a strong core. Quite a crafty wand. It will serve you well I’m sure.” Edited January 26, 2021 by Kingsdaughter613

Ollivander turned to Kelsier. “You,” he stated, “are going to be difficult. Phoenix feather could work, but we may need something closer to the veil...” He trailed off, looking utterly delighted. ”Here. Yew and Phoenix feather, fifteen inches. Give it a try.”
