[Ammy stands on the wreckage of the Crucible, smoke wafting about her from three of her cherry bombs going off at once. Colorful squares of paper are caught in the wind, but Ammy just stares at the unblemished metal. She's been standing there for some time, trying every technique she had including her own claws, but nothing's put so much as a

What are you planning on doing...?

[celestial_okami]

I tried to fill in the hole in the stars. It did not work as well as I had wished. [Her ears droop, even if Haruka can't see them.]

[distantspring]

Wouldn't that be tiring and maybe even impossible?

[celestial_okami]

Not so much, but I am not strong enough to complete it anymore. Maybe if I'd been at full strength... [She shakes her head to clear it.]

There is no sense in such thinking now, I must find another way.

[Haruka digs through her bag, before producing something that resembles a candy or medicine dispenser, filled with colorful blocks.

She mumbles something about natures] Calm, maybe? Naive, Timid... Bold?

... I might have to use that one then.

Here, try this!

[Haruka holds out a handful of brittle-looking purple cubes that smell of berries.]

I call it the Haruka Delicious 2! I made it myself!

It should make you stronger!

((It tastes like an unbearably strong burning acidic death, apparantly.))

[Oh lawd, why you do dis? Ammy is weak for offerings of food. Her ears perk, and she looks a bit more attentive. Snuffling the air, that smells kind of good, actually.]

Ah? For me? Thank you!

[Takes them and pops them into her mouth. All at once.]

[HURK. Ammy's eyes start to stream, making a muffled choking sound as her hand clamps over her mouth. OH SWEET STARSHINE. Issun always warned her about watching what she ate, but this...?

Ammy was sure she was dying.]

((ooc: Alas, I don't have any appropriate expressions for this outside of her wolf form. MUST FIX ASAP.))

[GUH. Sweat's pouring off her, and she has to plant a hand on her knee to keep from collapsing completely. She's shaking a little, that was AWFUL. She wheezes, coughing a bit. Auuugh, she thought she was going to die. Or throw up. It was horrible.]

Th-thanks. [Wheeze!] I needed that. [Needed it like a brick to the head, was more like it.]

[this would be horrible of Haruka if she had a clue]

[distantspring]

Really?

That's great-kamo!

You're sweating... with determination, aren't you? Are you ready to use your full-power?

((... that was HILARIOUS. ♥))

[Ammy will never take weird handouts from her EVER AGAIN]

[celestial_okami]

Y-yeah. [Coughs.] Really.

[She looks up at the black hole with tears in her eyes, well, what the heck. Why not.] Mmm.

[Straightening despite the wrenching pain in her mid-section, Ammy again tries to paint the sky in, but with as much success as the last time. Her shoulders sag a little.]

Ah...I think I may need to rest on it. [Or just...you know, see if she survives the night and this stomach cramp.]

[distantspring]

You almost did it! Don't give up-kamo.

But it would be best to rest. Maybe tomorrow, you'll be able to close it.

... How do you do it? Maybe one of my Pokemon could help you then-kamo.

[celestial_okami]

I won't, but I am tired. I think rest might be the best course.

I use my Celestial Brush. [Then she frowns a little, cocking her head.]

What is a pokemon?

[distantspring]

It would be. I can sing you a lullabye if you want!

Is that the attack's name?

They're the creatures that live in my world. They all have different abilities, usually based on elements like Fire or Water, and I'm a Pokemon trainer!

[celestial_okami]

Ah, I think I will be fine, but thank you.

[Gives her an odd look.] No, the technique is Rejuvination. The Celestial Brush is my weapon. Not that it is really a weapon, but it is difficult to describe.

Ahh, it must be hard work. I have never heard of it before.
