[ good, unintentional distractions are working out in his favour. luca will never know exactly how his hair looks right now -- but honestly, he should relax a bit more. his hair looks fine, even water ruined. ]

I'd like to see you try.

[ noodle arms. ]

[notaccurate]

[It's about to get all messed up again, because Luca is grinning and attempting to dive forward and fall on Yuri, to dunk Yuri in the water.

They're both sitting right now so it's more like "falling onto Yuri," but details.]

[aubins]

[ luca you noodle. well. yuri will get off balanced a little, but he doesn't fall into or under the water so i guess they're just a tangle now.

and then yuri cups and dumps more water on his head. ]

[notaccurate]

How dare you!

[He is not mad at all. The anger is fake and not at all convincing. Probably because he is laughing as he says it.

But he will also get his revenge by getting handfuls of water to dump on Yuri's head too.]

[aubins]

[ he's cut off by the mini-deluge of water so he just splutters, but it doesn't distract him for long. he'll even flip his hair in a less shaggy dog and more hair model way to get it out of his face so enjoy that, luca. ]

Very easily actually. After all, it's not real water anyway.

[notaccurate]

It feels real right now! This all feels real.

[Those words are going to haunt him well into his death. But for now, it's just a lighthearted statement on their situation.]

I bet it would feel warm if we sunbathed.

[aubins]

Mm. It does.

[ ssssssssstop. stop this. ]

We feel wet when we're swimming so the logic stands. Why, you into that more than having a swim? [ he just assumes luca is worried about his hair, honestly. ]

[notaccurate]

Have you never had a nice nap while laying in the sun?

[Something something cats do it all the time, but that thread happens after this one so.]

It is absolutely divine. And there isn't even a worry of sunburns in here.

[aubins]

Abyss, remember. It was like... underground all the time.

... But it was nice when you were out in the sun after class, so I can see the appeal.

[ he's

convinced he'll find a way to burn anyway. ]

[notaccurate]

Ahh, right, the abyss. Well, that just means there's more for you to experience.

But before we have a nap, there's something else we need to do.

[You may think he is about to make a lewd suggestion, but no. Simulation room can simulate magic too, and Yuri is touching Luca. Which means Luca can give a little flourish of his hand and summon up a large bubble of water.

Which will hover right over Yuri's head and then drop right on him.

All of this is done in a very small radius though, all within three feet of Luca. Any further out and there is no reaction whatsoever.]

[aubins]

Good old Abyss, hm?

[


...



well. yuri makes a sort of choked sound of surprise when the water drops onto him with a splash. and then, after the initial shock of it all wears of, he just tackles luca back into the water. i can't even make "drown, nerd" jokes because he's actually going to die in like two days i hate this family.

he'll be interested in the sfeer theoring in a moment let him have his revenge. ]

[notaccurate]

[The tackle-revenge is fine, Luca is laughing as he goes down. He might end up with some water up his nose but that's fine. This is all really funny for him.

He'll hold onto Yuri though, so that if Yuri wants to get out of the water to breathe he'll have to take Luca with him.]

[aubins]

[ i guess they both just drown here then. it's fine.

yuri will drag himself up because simulation room or not it's tricky to think like you can't actually breathe or maybe don't have to breathe here? who knows?

he'll give luca one more shove back into the water though. spite shove. take that. ]

[notaccurate]

[Luca is shoved back! And he sits in the water while he coughs up the water he just inhaled. And he's trying to talk between coughs too.]

Not a fan of your own medicine?

[aubins]

[ well, seeing as they have magic here -- yuri will lift his hand and blast luca with a gust of wind. it'll probably make his hair dry all funny. ]

Hey, you brought magic into it.

[notaccurate]

[Oh no his HAIR

Luca sits there for a moment, looking befuddled. And then:]

I made it so sfeer theory would work.

[But it's basically magic as studied like a science, so yeah.]

Show me again.

[aubins]

[ does he really want to ask that? because yuri will. and he'll target the hair again. it's looking a lil' birds nesty up there now, luca. ]

[notaccurate]

[When Yuri does it this time, Luca holds up a hand. There is some resistance to Yuri's wind gust, and Luca's face screws up in concentration as he tries to feel out the magic and sense the differences between it and his own magic. He doesn't completely negate the wind, but it does grow weaker after a couple seconds.]

One more time, I think I almost have it.

[aubins]

[ yuri tilts his head. hm...

he'll cast the wind spell one more time, watching luca's hand like he's trying to see exactly what it is he's doing. he can see the result of it -- the weaker flow of wind, but the how? that's not so clear. ]

Alright. Like this?

[notaccurate]

[This time the gesture varies slightly, and the wind blows right past him. The water ripples from the wind, and it keeps going in the direction Yuri fired it. But nothing on Luca's person- his hair, any water on him, or even a physical reaction to the wind- is affected by it at all.

And it makes Luca grin.]

It seems like I've got the stronger will here.

[aubins]

Huh. Impressive, was that just from watching the magic itself?

[ making it... ignore him? almost? or move around him. something like that would be helpful to know if dealing with mages on the battlefield, that's for sure.

but given that luca looks a little smug over here he just... pinches his nose between his fingers. ]

[notaccurate]

Not just watching, but feeling it.

['Making it ignore him' is a pretty good summary of what happened, honestly.

Any other explanation is lost as his nose is pinched though.]

Yuri! Careful!

[aubins]

[ no. he tweaks it before he lets go. ]

How does that work? It just sort of... flowed around you.

[notaccurate]

[Luca is going to RUB AT HIS NOSE first, how dare.

But after a few moments he will start to grumble out an explanation.]

What you saw was my sfeer. My particular specialty is in counteracting other people's reactions. You made a gust of wind, so I stopped it from affecting me. It's a matter of matching the force and willpower you put into your magic exactly to negate it.

[aubins]

[ haha. ]

... So, a barrier that's dependant on how much you want it to work? [ that's what he's getting from all this? ]
