Oh! I wouldn't mind at all. I'll be right over.

[Voice] | Filtered 100% semper_cogitans August 10 2011, 20:13:05 UTC

Thank you, Helios... I appreciate it.

... Do you need anything to help you with the procedure? [Because, while the apartment is probably pretty empty by now, Robert is sure he can get something to help.]

[Voice] | Filtered 100% folkloristic August 10 2011, 20:25:17 UTC

Mm I think I can manage on my own. [ There's a joking tone to his voice. ]

But thank you for the offer, Robert. [ Helios wouldn't mind the company though. But he doesn't mention it because he knows how dangerous all this must be right now. ]

[Voice] | Filtered 100% semper_cogitans August 10 2011, 20:48:07 UTC

[Actually, Robert is still in the apartment, gathering the last of his stuff.]

It would be no trouble... I am at the apartment as we speak. So I am well-equipped to assist, should you wish for it.

[Voice] | Filtered 100% folkloristic August 10 2011, 21:37:22 UTC

Mm very well. I'll be over in just a few moments then. [ And Robert is going to get a nice bright flash of light through his apartment when Helios teleports in. It's a good thing he has that sigil memorized as well as he does. ]

[Action] semper_cogitans August 11 2011, 00:31:11 UTC

[Robert winces at the sudden flash of bright light flooding his apartment - though the appearance of Helios confirms what he'd already thought it was.]

... Hello, Helios. You are good at rather sudden entrances, aren't you?

[Action] folkloristic August 11 2011, 01:01:46 UTC

[ Sheepish laugh. It's the quickest way to travel, okay? ] M-My apologies for startling you, Robert.

[Action] semper_cogitans August 11 2011, 01:04:05 UTC

It is... not a problem.

[The initial trepidation fades at Helios' little laugh, and Robert smiles gently.]

Now, how may I assist you in deconstructing this barrier...?

[Action] folkloristic August 11 2011, 01:32:49 UTC

Mm a wet cloth of some kind would be best. If-if you have any lying around? [ Helios goes to the front door and if Robert is close enough he might hear the whisperings of a language probably long forgotten. ] Appareo.

[ The last whispered word will cause the large sigil written on the door and long since faded to appear fully in view. The circular lines that connect the other sigils about the apartment appear as well as the circles tied to them. Helios sighs as the web of the barrier spell comes forth. ]

We'll just have to wash it off.

[Action] semper_cogitans August 11 2011, 01:42:49 UTC

[Robert certainly does have cloth. After all, he planned to wash the apartment thoroughly as soon as it was empty.

So he brings said cloth, as well as clean warm water and a biodegradable cleanser, over to where the door is. For a moment, he stands and stares at the complex web the barrier's sigils creates.]

... It is admittedly beautiful...

[Washing it off feels almost like desecration, in a way. But this apartment would be dangerous otherwise.]

[Action] folkloristic August 11 2011, 02:08:19 UTC

[ Helios will take that cloth muttering another few words. As if regular cleaner would work. But he doesn't expect Robert to know that. ] Dissipo.

[ The cloth might glow slightly golden in color before reverting back to normal. ] Just an extra boost. Magic is a bit more tricky to remove than the average stain. [ Just a slight chuckle as he begins to wipe off the sigil. ]

[Action] semper_cogitans August 11 2011, 02:59:06 UTC

[But how's Robert supposed to go OCD on the cleaning if he can't use regular cleaner?]

... Can you do that to another cloth so I can help you?

[Yes, he is asking to clean. He legitimately enjoys this, Helios.]

[Action] folkloristic August 11 2011, 06:17:43 UTC

Oh! Yes, yes of course! [ Cleaning and Helios...he's gotten better with living with two other people, but his room? Yeah still a mess with papers everywhere. ]

[Action] semper_cogitans August 11 2011, 07:39:45 UTC

[And Robert takes one of the magicalized cloths from Helios, scrubbing away at the sigils on the walls.

... It... doesn't work. What?]

... Erm...

[Action] folkloristic August 11 2011, 20:11:39 UTC

[ Helios stops in his own cleaning to give the other a puzzled look. ] It's not working? [ What... ]

I said the right spell. I don't... [ understand. ] ...how come it didn't work? [ Maybe what happened that time with the teleportation spell was occurring again? But Helios said the spell himself. It didn't match up... ] M-Maybe I could just...try again.

[Action] semper_cogitans August 11 2011, 22:14:07 UTC

[Robert experimentally holds the cloth differently and swipes at the sigil again. But no such luck.]

...

... Helios, can you try using this cloth?
