[FIRST: You get a very close shot of Lashan's eye as she squints at her shellphone. We have here that double-doozy of a medieval and an old person and while she's pretty sharp, these devices are not intuitive to her.]

'S it working? The bead's glowing.

[aka 'the light's on'. The video pulls back a bit but like, it's still pretty close and the angle is unflattering. This whole thing feels completely unnatural to her and the lines between her brows are deepened in a frown.]

I'm Sister Lashan. I'm a lay sister, not a nun. I've made some charms for waterproofing. They're not well-tested though. If you help me with that I'll give you one. Want to know their tolerances and if I have to tweak anything before I start selling them. I'm on Elrut.

[yeah this has made her feel ridiculous and stilted. She prods at the phone with a finger.]

...How do I- [she found out how to end message! this was Not guaranteed.]

[Alhaitham hums at the answer, easily acquiescing to her point. He's been here for quite a while now and it is still fairly fascinating how the abilities of other worlds work.

At her following question, Alhaitham is about to open his mouth to shoot off a quick 'no', only to pause and consider for a second. In most other cases he would not call a Vision a 'charm' of any sort, but its also not inaccurate considering he does need his close by in order to use any of his abilities, so...

He'll make it down as a 'maybe' for now.]


I suppose Visions work in a way that could fall in line with those things. [He shrugs his left shoulder forward as he says that, allowing the Vision that hangs there to dangle forward, Dendro gem shining a brilliant green as it catches the sunlight.]
