ITP: inappropriate orifices

[bythehorns]

[In the one of the more livable regions of the cave this afternoon (evening? who even knows, in here), Tavros is examining a troll-sized tub of green slime that the fuk dwarves have just finished making for him. It's a deep, pearly pink, and the opening at the top of it looks like...well, let's be polite and say it looks like a Georgia O'Keeffe painting. The fuk dwarves have ideas about what holes in things should look like (nsfw).]

Wow, that's, a lot fancier, than I was expecting, with the decorative folds, and everything....

((pester Tavros about his obscene home furnishings! or pester the fuk dwarves for inappropriate boons of your own. everybody needs more decorative genitals in their lives, right?))

[asdkjfhkjlag COUGHING and also cheeks turning deep bronze instead of gray]

I-I, um, I, that is, er, I.

Uh.

[nope, no coherence here. only blushing now.]

[ice_and_steel]

Are you all right? [considering whether it is appropriate to cast Scan to make sure he's not hurt or ill, why does no one explain the politeness value of spells in basic training] Was it something I said?

[bythehorns]

I-I-I, um, maybe, is there...

is there, anything else, we could try?

[trying not to just hide under things in pure mortification]

[ice_and_steel]

[she blinks]

[what on earth could be so embarrassing about a water container?]

Clearly I misstepped here...where I am from, a bucket is about such size [sketching outlines with her hands] and you use it for carrying liquids? Like water from the well.

[so puzzled]

[bythehorns]

[still blushing about as brown as he goes and mumbling at the cave floor. oh gog gestures and that is a serious bucket the human soldier just suggested, like, how would you even fill a bucket that big]

Liquids, like, um. Like. Genetic material.

[ice_and_steel]

[eyes widen, a blush roughly like wine spilled on snow starting to crawl up her face]

....You sure do use them for different things here. No, we don't...put....genetic material in there. I guess if you wanted to kill someone and drain their blood into a bucket you could fill it that way, but I'm guessing that's not what you meant. We don't, um.... [blushing redder] oh, hell with it. If someone could produce that much--or I guess several someones--it'd be pretty impressive, yeah.

....Well, now we've both accidentally brought awkward into this conversation!

[somewhat nervously] what about a tub? Or I mean I guess maybe I could just freeze the... [she looks at the slime] the filling material, unless that would negate its chemical properties. Chemistry was never my strong point.

[bythehorns]

[wow, humans really do blush red, just like you've heard they do, that's -- you should not be staring, it can't be polite]

Um, maybe, since we have both done it, now we can just, pretend, it never happened, at all.

If you think, you could freeze it, we could, try that. My friend, Gamzee, has baked it, before, without making it, stop working, so, I think, changing the temperature, should be, okay.

[ice_and_steel]

[Is there something on my face? Oh well. Then there's something there.]

Let's start small, then.

[mutters] I sure hope magic works here.

[standing next to the slime, she closes her eyes and murmurs syllables softly, sharp-edged and crackling like thin ice. A halo of red light forms around her briefly, and then a wide band of blue light comes down from above? nowhere? and touches the slime, leaving a large section of it neatly frozen.]

[ooc: assuming that is okay. If not, let me know!]

[bythehorns]

((Totally okay! ♥))

Wow, that is, a really cool power, um, which sounds like, a bad pun, but is actually, me expressing, appreciation.

[[leans in close, pokes the slime-ice with one claw in fascination]]

[ice_and_steel]

[it is pretty much just ice! Well. Slime-ice.]

[studying it critically] It should at least make it easier to move.

[mutters] It's nice to be able to use this for something productive.
