[ Undyne had said she wanted more guidance from ALASTAIR. Here she is, with more guidance, and she doesn’t know if she likes it. Looking more ragged than ever, she’s standing with Pearl, with the volcano Nalalona in the background. ]

Alright chumps, listen up, it’s time for some teamwork! ALASTAIR has some ideas about what we can do to get the volcano going again, so everyone can get their powers back. ...it’s going to involve a bomb.

[Pearl clears her throat, despite the fact her body is flickering in and out of view at some points during the video. The Gem stands tall as she gestures back to the volcano.]

This is correct. ALASTAIR has entrusted us with schematics of creating a bomb and a catapult. It’s up to us to gather the necessary supplies and assemble them.

They have observed a high level of tectonic plate activity here, near the Nalalona volcano. With enough force -- the bomb in this case -- we can possibly trigger an eruption and restore the natives’ Gifts, along with our own magical abilities. The volcano’s opening is large enough for us to hit our mark with the bomb. It’s up to us to put it all together.


We can’t afford to not try. Look around you, half our team relies on magic just to exist. This isn’t just about helping the natives use magic anymore, this about saving ourselves. If you don’t use magic, good for you, but if you have a heart, you’ll understand why this is important, and why if I catch anyone slacking off, they’ll be answering to my spear about why they don't think it's important. Got it?!

[Pearl glances to Undyne and offers her a weak smile. The situation they were all facing was quite dire. She faces the feed again.]

I know we have the ability to make this work. And we will, if we all work together on this. Every little bit helps!

[ OOC note: There will be a mod-posted mass log on the 16th for gathering/construction/etc. Pearl and Undyne will be around, and feel free to use this post to chat among each other as well! ]

[ OOC edit: The NPCs Crowley and Cherenkov speak! ]

We just need to help the volcano erupt, not explode the entire thing!

The list is very... erratic to say the least. Wood, metals, obsidian, flowers, sea urchins, coconuts, and...
[They say Nawali hearts but... there is a substitute.] fish hearts.

We would want to assemble as a group and tackle this in one setting. That way we can get everything together as quick as possible and launch it into the volcano in one fell swoop.
wardance: words and I said "oh fuck not you again" he didn't think that was too kind. (♯i rolled over and my thoughts became)

[ what. ]

Yeaaahhh, my heart just took a vacation after listening to this.

As recruits StrongFish91 and Pearl have said, we have observed unusually high concentrations of energy trapped in the volcano Nalalona. According to your teammates' own observations, the Nalawi associate the loss of power with the cessation of eruptions.

If you disagree that this is justification enough, you are more than welcome to conduct your own readings. I do not care.

You don't have to participate, Masamune, if you don't wish to.

[she doesn't offer much, just,]

Do you need help?

[ There's clear hesitation like he definitely expected to get yelled at but he nods. ] Thanks.

So, do you have to bomb all of them?

wardance: means. (♯clearly he doesn't know what L-O-L)

[personal profile] wardance 2016-04-09 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
—Yes, yes I do. [ no, he doesn't. ]

Does either of you have any experience with controlled detonations?

| Actually... She frowns. This doesn't even sound particularly controlled. |
beyourrock: (Walking flashlight.)

[personal profile] beyourrock 2016-04-09 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Bomb all of them...?

No, ALASTAIR wishes for us to aim the bomb into the volcano.

And does said math include the range and impact of such an explosion, as well as the resulting eruption from the volcano?

[Never mind her objections to explosives, there's not point restoring Gifts back to the Nalawi if they're all too dead to use said Gifts.]

Very... limited experience.

Like we've said, this is all ALASTAIR's information. We have schematics and everything.

[personal profile] anteil 2016-04-09 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
It matters because it gives you even less control than usual. If you can't even strategically blow something up, what do you think your odds are on a mostly blind launch?

This is going to get us and a whole bunch of little deer killed.

[personal profile] anteil 2016-04-09 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
And you'll follow that order blindly? Based on schematics you have no previous experience with?

| A pause. | I know the situation is dire. More so for you. But the risks...

I don't know.

[She hugs her arms, her form flickering once. She winces, concentrating to keep her form in one piece.]

But what else can we do to restore magic here? This is the first time in which ALASTAIR has offered any kind of help to us.
