Excuse me! If I could have your attention for a moment -- I'm looking for any fire-users who would like to volunteer their services. As you can see, I have a series of clothes set up here.

Won't know for sure until we test it.

Need a hand with the fabrics?

I think this set-up is alright. Would you like to be on hand with a fire extinguisher? I did my best, but I doubt any of these have flash points past four minutes of exposure to open flame.

Hello, sir. A little over a week ago?

You're a fire user?

I'm considered to be pretty good at it.

Wonderful! What I'm looking for is a consistent flame at a constant temperature, directed at the first cloth until it starts to burn.

Oh, um, and I'm Violet, by the way.

Says who?

You'll just wreck a perfectly good set of clothes!
