Synthesis & You ♗ si vis pacem, para bellum
Who: Everyone! General mingle
When: 8/16, when everyone's been called back to Gammon
Where: Gammon, Southwest Cloister
What: With determination to succeed this time high, Heroes have organized a demonstration of armor/accessory synthesis and everyone has been encouraged to learn how to and consider arming themselves to the best of their abilities for the upcoming battle.
Rating: Doubtful to be anything past PG-13
The Southwest Cloister, crowning jewel of Gammon's Blackchurch district. The high archways that line the sun-warmed courtyard provide a welcoming shade that feels cool and smells old and of masonry and dew, reminiscent of things simple and old as stone. A feeling of monastic solitude.
A place one will find anything but solitude as today a large part of it, sectioned off from the usual bustle of tourism by helpful residents and caretakers eager to help the visiting Blanc Heroes prepare, is filling with the uniformed visitors. Or at least the Heroes will have been encouraged to wear their uniforms, or at least the badges bearing their ranks in order to facilitate finding appropriate partners, and to have brought everything they might have recovered from their various missions, no matter how slight or unimportant it might have seemed. Perhaps a Bishop could discern its true use after all.
Perhaps you were dragged here by one of the enthusiastic other Heroes spreading word or saw one of the flyers posted in the The Other Side Inn. Maybe you just followed the crowd. Either way, you're here now and being ushered to either observe as Rin and Saber prepare to demonstrate for the newcomers, perhaps joined by others about to attempt the process themselves. Have the badge of a Bishop? Oh! Might you have the skills of a Scholar then? Don't worry, you're going to be asked to help assist in analyzing some of the more questionable magical components...
A sign has been posted on one of the pillars as well. Anyone who has decided they want to craft an item is encouraged to write there about the rank partner they're seeking, and likewise any Hero wishing to volunteer their assistance with their specializations is encouraged to write them with their name there.
Even the newly arrived Pawns will have been encouraged to attend and learn more—or perhaps to barter with a fellow Hero who can't figure out what to do with that enchanted scale. And who knows, perhaps someone—a friend or good Samaritan—out of the goodness of their heart...

He needed to close his eyes when the glow became too bright, but he opened them shortly after, when, supposedly, the process was over.]
I think it's...over?
[Gilbert, you were supposed to know such things...]
no subject
[Said between gritted teeth. But she sure was maintaining her composure! Especially since that was somewhat literal.
Technically her hands weren't burning, but the gauntlets were still glowing with phoenix-fire as the feather melded itself onto them. The metal itself seemed touched with gold and brass when the fire spread to it, the plain steel molding itself into fluted, almost featherlike shapes.
But Kaede was too stubborn to quit now; her mana growing more and more agitated. As...to be expected, really. Detached from its owner as it was, the phoenix feather seemed intent on testing its prospective master first.]
no subject
Fuck...the feather.
[That was some ace detective work, Gilbert.]
You have to withstand it.
[Was synthesis supposed to be such a struggle? He couldn't have known, but he really thought it would be much easier.]
no subject
[The ordeal would be over relatively quickly, at least. Right now, in fact!
The light gathered into a single point, leaving behind burnished metal--before it burst, into harmless, almost feathered white sparks. The temperature of the gauntlets dropped drastically, but Kaede practically tore them off of her hands anyway. The skin was reddish, obviously warm, but not too badly burned for all of that. It was hard to conceal the relieved sigh she made when the cooler air hit them, but--the gauntlets were done with whatever mischief they were up to.
The leather backing was renewed, the dull steel replaced with something brasslike, light without seeming flimsy.
They were fairly comfortable, when they weren't on fire.
Kaede, predictably, scowled at them.]
no subject
But Kaede was scowling anyway, so maybe it was just him.]
So...is it fine? Or does it need some adjustments or not really?
[He'd straight out ask whether he can move his hands away, but that way was safer.]
no subject
[She'd also probably say "this is fine" in a literally burning room.
Tentatively, Kaede eased her hand back into the glove. It was just gently warm now, and almost...lighter. Like her mana needed barely a thought to flow down to her hands.
She flexed each of the fingers, frown abating somewhat. This was Acceptable, she supposed.]
What did you want, then?
[She felt a bit tired, but not enough to mention out loud. Kaede figured she should at least offer to help back, even if she didn't...know exactly how to say that.]
no subject
If you say so.
[He didn't believe her completely, but what could he do.]
Me? I don't need anything, really. I needed practice anyway.
[He wasn't making it any easier for her, was he.]
omg that picture
[She didn't want this sneaking up on her later!]
no subject
[He couldn't imagine Kaede worrying about it too much, though.]
Maybe next time when I won't set your hands on fire.
[Gilbert had realized that it was the feather some time before, but still.]
