The ongoing adventures of Florida Mage!

[fullthrottleammy]

Who: Amaterasu, Nana, Jolyne, Tobias, and Akechi
What: Making sure that Giant Alligators won't be a problem anymore
When: August 8th
Where: Florida

[Amaterasu leads the students to a swamp in the depths of Florida. Anyone who attended her Greensprout lessons should be able to create a Lilly-pad to avoid trudging through the muck, everyone else will get one provided by Ammy.

There are the occasional shapes moving through the murk, some of which don't resemble any actual aquatic animal. Amaterasu herself seems a little on edge, something about this just doesn't feel right.]

In my defense, I've only really had this power for a few months, still learning on how much I can get away with. [But it was either that or get dragged down into the water by a huge mutated gator, she'll take her chances.]

Oh come on, don't ruin the fun by killing them all like that. Let me have my fucking destiny as Florida Woman for two seconds, damn. [Is... she serious? Who knows, she's saying that with the straightest face.]

[playitagain]

It took me awhile to really learn how to use my Flame. I think you're doing very well, Jolyne. [She says that to Jolyne -- and then she hops onto a lilypad, staying put.

She glances at Akechi.]

I'm ready. Jolyne, maybe we can mop up the ones that aren't taken care of? And you can--

...what's a Florida Woman?

[hawkwardness]

[No sign of any ominous ripples in the water yet, he's been quiet for a few moments.]

< You know, if you can pin one down alive for about thirty seconds, I think I can add it to my morphs. >

[Can't stop won't stop.]

[foolishjustice]

I doubt this spell will kill them outright, especially not spread out like this. It might stun, though.

[And so, he calls on his Persona's power again to send a wave of electricity into the water. It's a mid-tier spell, so it should have enough oomph to it to at least hurt the gators, though he's right in that it's going to lose some power to being spread out through the water.]

[Something strange happens when Akechi calls on his Persona. The gator that isn't still reeling jumps out of the water at the exact moment the lightning strikes, leaving it ineffective. The one that was stunned, however, seems to now be unconscious.

Ammy's too late to stop it from avoiding the lightning, but she is swift enough to Power Slash it out of the air before it's able to crush anyone.]

Uh. Anyone got any clue what just happened?

[strings_theory]

[Oh my god, Nana.]

Long story, explain it later. [And... honestly, that's kind of cool, what the fuck just happened there. Even if Jolyne's making an annoyed noise in the back of her throat once the gators seem to be mostly handled. That's rude, she wanted to do more shit to them. But fine, she guesses.]

I'm guessin' whatever magic mutated them also increased their intelligence, they usually aren't that smart. Something something as old as fucking dinosaurs something something, I don't know, I'm not a fucking biologist. [... Why is there such a bitter bite to that last part in her tone? Huh.]

[hawkwardness]

[Incoming!

Yep, he's going for the Frankengator that seems to be unconscious, but alive--the one that can't snatch him out of the air and probably swallow him whole. Thirty seconds, that's all it should take him to dive, latch on to it, acquire and get clear...]

< Geez. I hope we don't get where we're going just to find out they ate whoever made them. >

[playitagain]

I'd hope they're smarter than that, Tobias...

[She frowns at the two gators. There's a longer look at the one that Ammy struck down.

Just in case it gets back up.]
