Mus'ad
"What'swrong? CanIhelp? I'mnotsurehowI'dhelpbutI'mhappytohelp."

Mus'ad sighs again, taking a moment to think before straightening up and responding to Alicia's concern.
"Ah, I don't want to burden you. I just kind of lost my temper with Orrel, a bit of a disagreement mid-battle and I lost my temper. I just... really need to apologize for it."

Lenn'art takes Blod's Hi-pot and uses it on her.
The pirate grunted, frowning at the wounds on the woman in front of him. Seeing a small bottle on her, he quickly plucks it into his hand, confirming it being a medicinal potion and reaching around to make her drink it.
"Oi, drink this before they knock you out as well."

303
Keilee moves to F8 and uses Avidity on Dom.
Serena heals Momo.

Kraken, Lyra, Perlita, 6D

Kraken chuckles at the teen's statement. "Well, I'm sure I can help you out with your gunnery... Archery...? Shooting, at the very least. I'm something of a crackshot even if my specialty lies more in automatic weapons." He pats his machine gun affectionately and partially as an example before turning to Lyra. He thinks for a few moments before responding. "Well, there's Boomfist, the caveman appeared just before me I think... There's the chick with the sword through her... obviously you three.... Oh, and the Gura cosplayer. I think that's about it. I think I caught a glimpse of an orcy looking dude as well? But yeah, that's about it." Kraken nods mostly to himself as he concludes.

Keilee ignores the arrest(s) and moves up. A nice fight where no one dies is just what she needed at this point. She shakes off the dawning horror of that thought and pulls out the fire tome she got, intending to burn away the mysterious stranger's robe and get some idea of what they're dealing with.
Keilee goes to F7 and uses Fire on ???

Kraken

The operator needed a few moments to get over the clear disconnect between the woman's appearance being human and the language she used and was used to refer to her. When he did though, one could see the excitement come over his face. His mouth worked itself open and closed several times before he put a knuckle in it to avoid vocalizing his excitement before finally he regained some control and took a breath. He straightened up his posture, as if to make up for the momentary lapse in self control before nodding. "Ah, a robot. Got it."

When the teen spoke, Kraken relaxed his posture. He did realize he's mighty intimidating after all. And it wouldn't be the first time he scared a kid, though at least this time it wasn't in the process of extracting them from a building formerly full of terrorists. He gives Perlita a little smile and a wave, avoiding large movements. "Kraken, like I said. I'm uh... formerly an operator with Rainbow Six, an international counter terrorism operation. Nice to meet you."

Kraken

The Operator nods to each of the girls in turn. He does look back to Perlita, mentally noting how tiny she is before looking back to Lyra and her explanation. He... didn't actually remember Lyra's name at that moment but it wouldn't be the first time he spent a conversation trying to avoid letting that detail slip! After a moment he turns back to 6D, briefly wonders which order to put his sentences in, and then speaks. "Ah, so you aren't going to be joining us on the next operation? Too bad... Uh, yeah, my codename is Kraken, actual name is Kyle but I'm used to Kraken..." He trails off in an awkward pause as he processes further how to go on with the unexpected conversation, using Lyra's explanation of her plan about... crystals? Guess alternative medicine is in vogue where she's from as well.

Kraken

Wandering the halls without much to do, Kraken eventually happened upon a room with destroyed machinery of a kind he wasn't familiar with at all. He spends a few moments poking through the wreckage before shrugging and moving on, soon getting distracted by a glowing core in the middle of the room. He stares at it for a while, circling it like a suspicious animal before stopping and shrugging to himself. He thought on the odd orb for a few more moments before shrugging again, and concluding that it must be the room's light source. Which of course was mostly convincing himself it was something boring so he wasn't tempted to fuck around with the strange glowing orb. Thankfully, as he went towards the important looking door he heard voices, and so he went towards them. As he got closer he could identify them as female, and made a small noise as he nodded his head. Nice to see that whatever entity picked us up also got a nice mix of genders. It'd really put a damper on my work if they were sexist.

With that thought in mind he pushes through the doors prepared to greet his new colleagues (or possibly old ones? He didn't know how this worked.) but seeing the somewhat emotional situation he silently dropped the arm he had raised in greeting. He quickly looked around for anyone that could possibly be more open to conversation before trying to slink off to a corner without being noticed by the room's other occupants.

Deciding to go explore on his own for a while as well, Kraken leaves the Barracks.

312
Lin

Mus'ad sighs slightly, using his sandwich to gesture as he tries to explain.
"I mean, a wand's a wand Lin. I don't need anything fancier than a stick of alphinite to load a spell into and even if I did, how could I put say, "I want a wand that fits into a cane so that I can carry it and have it close at hand without drawing suspicion from others" without making myself sound like a demanding prick?"

313
Mus'ad thought about asking what the squinting was about for a moment before similarly dropping the thought in favor to continue with the topic at hand. He takes a bite of his sandwich, closing his eyes to smile smugly before he begins.
"Well, as you may know, I've been doing some personal studies into others with artes like mine. Time manipulation, future sight, even found one that could see the past reportedly. I say reportedly because they disappeared after starting to solve a string of cold cases.... Anyway, as you can imagine, most of the books detailing such things were utterly unhelpful. Very few had a peek into the mechanics of their abilities and those that did weren't very keen on sharing. But just weeks ago I found a book by a writer named Norn who provided some limited insight into such matters. It took some study into the writing of tomes and spells, and more than a few tests before I got things to work, but just recently I found a way to share a vision from myself to someone else, and it even makes it easier for me to view their future after!"
Mus'ad opens his eyes, a wide smile splitting his face.
"Sculpter's hands, do you know how vital this could be if I could expand on the concept!?" The scaled seer only then seems to notice how his volume had risen, pausing and taking a breath. "But you probably don't care much for that kind of thing. Now then, I was planning to ask for a standard Alphinite wand, unlike staves they don't need to be tuned to a specific spell so any would work but... if you want to do me a favor could you carve a dragon with a single open eye on it? Helps identify it and... you know... I think it'd look cool..."
Mus'ad trails off, clearly thinking the idea is rather silly in hindsight.

314
Alicia

Mus'ad chuckles at the mental image before shaking his head.
"Well, I hope you guys got some barbeque for a job well done! And it's good that you stayed calm, it's an important skill to learn no matter what field you go into."
Mus'ad thinks for a moment before sighing to himself with a slight slump of his shoulder.



Lin

Mus'ad takes a careful bit of his sandwich, chewing thoughtfully before swallowing and setting the food down with a nod.
"Hm... Well let's start with the basics. Staves replace wands as an alphinite focus for casting spells, they're very efficient for this because they remove the need for concentrating and visualizing spells. Of course this comes with the down side of them being rather heavy compared to a wand. So first point of focus for improving staves would be lowering the weight. And I'm sure you don't need me to tell you why the size problem makes them less useful in tight spaces.... But of course the relative ease still outweighs the downsides, similar to how crossbows are fairly easy to use compared to traditional bows." Mus'ad takes another polite bite of his sandwich before continuing. "But that's kind of the problem, there's not much room for customization of a staff as the majority of the fine tuning is towards the spell it casts.... That said, I wanted to talk to Professor Ramsay about getting a wand as I've run into a... break through of interest regarding my arte."

Lin

Mus'ad, who had been thinking about whether it would be wise to grab a second sandwich before he left (They were those delightful ones with shredded chicken, very lovely.) had the idea cemented when Lin interrupted his ruminations. Turning to face her fully he nodded with a smile.
"Ah, Lin! I was just wondering about my current food situation. I trust you're hungry as well, so why don't I grab the both of us something and we can discuss over that; because I happen to have been doing some research on the topic in the past weeks and have some ideas."
