Oops

[thecanopycrew]

It's still early in the morning as the increasing winds roar outside the little fairy homes, rustling the small balconies and gusting slightly through the crack in the fourth floor wall. It's nothing but a bit of bad weather, something the week has been full of.

...that is, until a deafening crack is heard outside the tree, only to thunder into the tree itself with such force that it shakes the whole trunk.

The air is quickly filled with ash and soot, blackening everything outside.

Mm, that's going to be a problem. I can use Ruby to slash at the currents to move the pollution out of the air and then use Nine Lives to destroy the tree... Or possibly ask Saber-san to help out since her sword would probably also redirect it.

[finallyfallen]

...

[Her sword? Nine-lives? Well, the staff at least sort of makes sense.]

....That may work.

[Judar's been practicing with his magic, maybe he can help...Hakuruyu would have to contact him though.]

the problem is going to be the mist. We're stuck on this side of it.

[2wei]

It's fine. If we time it to a point where the falling tree is barely on our side and then hit it like a baseball, we should be okay.

[finallyfallen]

Baseball?

[2wei]

It's a sport where someone throws a ball and then you hit it as far as you can.

[finallyfallen]

Ah.

So the plan is to hit it.

[Better then he can think of.]

and hope it's enough to push it another way.

[Fuu entered the tree mainly because she found a way despite all the soot, which was remarkable enough that she seized the opportunity. At least it's a little easier to see in here than outside.

She hears the slosh and the yell and hurries towards it, hand raised in case she needs to cast a healing spell.]

Lady Celena! Are you okay?!

[2wei]

If we can't hit it towards the other direction, at the very least, we can slice it in half so it falls in another direction regardless.

[finallyfallen]

That's true.

[2wei]

Mm. I'm going to find Saber-san so she can help out. Make sure to stay put, and if you see anyone else, tell them.

[finallyfallen]

Fair enough.

Being unable to use wind magic herself was troublesome, but Illya herself had decisively come up with a countermeasure to break wind regardless by using a thin, and fast beam that worked to disperse the air, even as she covered her mouth up with her arm.

"Hey!" the smaller girl waved with enthusiasm, but with a serious inclination to her voice.

action;

[blood_and_thunder]

Ah...!

[She stands up, trying to see the other girl better.]

Be careful! If you breathe in too much of it, you'll get sick!

action;

[2wei]

I'll be okay! I've been clearing the air with Ruby and making sure I don't breathe too much of it.

[ If it's too much, however, she can probably create a barrier around herself. ]

action;

[blood_and_thunder]

That's good... b-but what's going on? Everyone must have felt that... Was it some sort of attack?

action;

[2wei]

There's a tree-- outside-- it's about to fall. I'm going to help try and stop it before it's too late.

"You said the other trees, didn't you?" says Arj, now crouching deeper under the blankets. The feed's almost gone dark. "Not this one?"

Re: (amber)

[donotmail]

"Well, it feels like a rather large something!" Arj shouts back. It seems to be quiet now... or maybe it's that he's huddled so deeply under the blankets that he can't hear a thing. "I'll just... stay here and find something to do, shall I?"

[kingpika]

Really? Can Excalibur destroy this tree in one shot at this size?

[ Gil looks up and down the burnt tree and considers. ]

If you had that blast that beat my Ea, you could probably do it. Don't expect anything from me though, I don't have my Noble Phantasms even if I wanted to help you!

[kingpika]

"You're welcome! This smoke's getting in my face too!" If he had everything he owned, Gil would have been able to blow all this smoke away easily, but he didn't, so this would have to do.

"Are you okay? It would be pretty terrible to die to a falling tree!"

[blood_and_thunder]

She blinks at the 'new information', trying to stand up properly. "A falling tree...? Is that what happened?"

action;

[blood_and_thunder]

Oh, no!

There has to be some way I can help! If it falls the wrong way, someone could get hurt - maybe even the animals!

Action

[isolophobia]

[ With all the surprise, the confusion, and downright panic surrounding something as simple as a bit of inclement weather, Pitch was bound to take notice. But instead of being his is as grey and mostly paranoid as Evan. And since fear never announces itself, only steals in on quiet cat's paws, it's just as quiet about being across the failed ember from Evan. ]

I don't think you can think your way out of this one.

action;

[2wei]

Can you try getting the animals to a safe place? I plan on trying to destroy the other tree or, at the very least, push it away.

action;

[blood_and_thunder]

I'm not sure... but I have to try.
