1st crash

[scienderp]

[Oh dear there's something on the grounds. Something huge, something white, and something very, very icy.

Who knows what time it got there (4 AM), but it's been thawing ever since, and looking very, very confused in the mean time.

He hasn't even tried to get up yet, which might be a good thing because he'd just make a terrible mess of all the nice hedges here, which he has been trying to avoid stepping on since he first just... appeared in the garden. Ice hangs from the giant wings, and runs in rivulets down his shoulders and back, creating a small pool of ice water beneath him.

Frankly, it doesn't look like he really knows what to do with himself, keeping his hands tucked away in his lap, feet drawn up close, and wings occasionally creaking and snapping with the sounds of melting and shattering ice. Other than that, he's been exceptionally quiet, with only the occasional rumble of a massive engine breaking the silence.

It won't be hard to miss him either, he's only about forty feet tall. Try not to get under the wings.]

[ Guess who is from a world without mechanics that run like engines? This blind guy. He'd been somewhat curious, but he can't tell what was going on with his magic - and the closest thing he'd heard to the engine-noise was in that world change, so he hadn't thought of something up would be making that noise.

He just got dripped on from that cold water. He had not been expecting that, so this is a rather undignified noise of surprise that's a bit too quiet to be a yelp.

Duke should have expected something odd when he explored outside for the first time in a month. ]

[scienderp]

[Oh gosh something small made a loud noise, he didn't hit anyone did he? A bit of frantic looking around, and he spots Duke standing close to the giant icy puddles he's created. Oh... he dripped on someone]

My apologies, friend.

[radiantwingedone]

[ That voice came from up, and Duke blinks uselessly in that direction while taking a few steps backward - because if he got dripped on then he should go in the opposite reaction.

And since this voice is new he is going to shove all his discomfort at the word 'friend' into a corner and assume it was a way of addressing and intent to get across lack of threat. ]

... You're the noise. [ He's getting the idea that the dripping came from something large that made the engine noise too. Otherwise, why apologize? ]

[scienderp]

Ah, yes I suppose I was making some noise earlier. I was warming up my engines in the hopes that I would thaw faster.

[radiantwingedone]

... If you are having issues with ice, can provide fire, if it would aid. Likely can alter so that not hot enough to damage metal, but enough to speed melt.

[scienderp]

You need not worry about damaging me with fire. If I can handle entry into the earths atmosphere, I am sure I can handle some flames.

Any sort of help would be greatly appreciated.

[radiantwingedone]

Ah. [ That... does sound like he could handle a fire spell or two.

So don't mind him, he's just... going to angle a fire spell from the spot where he'd been dripped on up. Most of his are fairly narrow - Spiral Flare would really be a plume of flame when he angles it like this. ]

Am not the best with aim, currently, so if could move so where the spot is glowing? Will go up, and somewhat narrow.

[scienderp]

[Skyfire nods, paying attention to the ground in order to find the glowing point]

Of course.

Er, could you tell me how exactly this will work?

[radiantwingedone]

Will use formula - also known as spell - to harness ambient energy - particular one known as mana. Formula aligns energy from neutral to fire, guides shape. Very similar to math, only rather commonly referred to as magic. If makes uncomfortable, little can to aid otherwise.
