Episode Twenty: The Magenta Core

[oxidegreen]

[Video; Action for Nanao's house]

[Marona looks... agitated today. It's hard to pinpoint one exact emotion, but annoyance and perhaps a little desperation are definitely present, should your character be good at reading expressions.]

Has anyone received something from home that should normally have powers, but doesn't?

[...after a moment of deliberation about exactly how much he wants to get involved in this - to say nothing of how much he wants to divulge to perfect strangers regarding what he actually did receive - he figures text responses to that will harm nothing; after all, the most it may be attaching is a name, rather than appearance or any sort of voice.]

In a manner of speaking, yes.

In a manner of speaking?

[explosivecombat]

"Powers" in general don't seem to work here; I suppose that extends to any artifacts that rely on them as well. What I received doesn't necessary have these powers on its own, but it depends on them to function.

[oxidegreen]

I realize that. But to be able to strip the powers from what i received...

This place is stronger than i thought.

{Rolling upstairs to see what's happening.}

What's the matter?

[oxidegreen]

[She's trying to calm down, but she's still visibly upset.]

...I received something I should not have.

[attrites]

Uh... I think you have to be a little more specific than that.

[oxidegreen]

An item that should be able to do something, but here, cannot.

[attrites]

Huh... does it need electricity to work?

[oxidegreen]

No. It provides its own power, but... it does not appear to have that here.
