Week four

Two more of your fellow gods, your companions, your friends, have met their end together. As you turn in for the night, and a new week dawns upon you, it's starting to be a bitter experience. Just how much of this will you be forced to take?

But all isn't just despair. The morning is brighter than the last. The storm clouds that previously plagued almost every day have dissipated, and this week brings plenty of sun and a friendlier breeze. Not to mention, another floor of this strange temple has revealed itself. Whatever lies within is your domain, not Typhon's. Keep it tight in your grasp, because you never know when you'll lose it.

I hoped to deal with that after making sure it could look at someone without being too conspicous...but it's hard for a big eye to not call attention.

[Especially when it gets all unsubtle like it does, geez]

The staring is a little too obvious, yes.

...I suppose I could make an observation doll if that interests you, but I'd need to figure out where to source its eyes.

Erm...what's an observation doll, exactly?

[Well, she can make an educated guess, given its name, but also it's better to ask for details before diving right into how to source its eyes, she figures! Because what if she gets into something she shouldn't!]

It's a doll that can be used for...well, observation and spying. It needs to be controlled directly, but your senses are shared with the doll, letting you see and hear everything at the doll's position.

I can easily make a new doll, but I need to find gems if I want to make suee it can still observe even when it's put in a container or something.

I think nobody will figure out the doll is spying on them. They won't put it in a container.

[Well, there's the matter of the eyes, though...]

About the eyes, what are they usually sourced from?

True, but sometimes it gets put away, especially if it's passed off as just a toy. Makes it terribly inconvenient without the enchantment.

Normally I use emeralds, but I suppose any gem is doable as long as it's, well, a real gem.

I haven't seen any kind of genuine gems anywhere...with some luck, some might appear from the cornucopia but I find that unlikely.

[Dang, the doll seemed like a good idea. It sucks it might not be plausible, she thinks]

[personal profile] stringup 2025-07-31 03:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, worse case scenario, I'll think of something that can be used as a replacement.

Glass? Or beads...?

[.......]

The SON's eyes?

[Terrible]

stringup: (velvet27)

[personal profile] stringup 2025-08-01 05:47 pm (UTC)(link)
...Well, at least it'd make the SON useful.

[ Read: She approves of this terrible suggestion. ]

Glass could work. I suppose we don't need this doll to be capable of using transmitting sorcerous energy for this.

Glass might be easy to obtain. It could be obtained from some other element around here...

[Ideas are forming already! Hmmmm...!]

How does this doll inform something's going on? Does it come directly to tell me? Or is it beamed to my head?
stringup: (velvet29)

[personal profile] stringup 2025-08-02 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
Straight into your head. Your senses will be shared with it, so you'll see and hear whatever it does, basically. The thing is that it needs to be controlled directly.

[personal profile] cannotunravel 2025-08-03 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
I see. I'm very interested, regardless.

[Misane nods]

Please, if you can make a functional one, do so. I'll even pay you somehow, even if it's with tokens.

[Take a commission, Velvet!]
stringup: (velvet21)

[personal profile] stringup 2025-08-05 04:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll be honest, tokens aren't commensurate compensation for my work by any stretch.

[ As much as she knows Quark is trying to run a business here, the economy doesn't really exist. ]

So...I'll just consider this community service for the greater good.

[ She is trusting you with this, Misane. ]
