Albinia
Science, Responsibility, Ice | 
❧ Played by Sair |
 |
Appearance: As a human, she’s a grown woman, with pale skin, long light colored hair, and light blue eyes. She will never smile and either has a distant look or disapproving look most of the time.
Characteristics: Stern, serious, cold, reserved, scientific, socially awkward, rational.
Likes: Order, rules, responsibility, self-control, logic, science (Of all kinds, except mad scientist science.), scientific method, ice, frozen goods, ice sculptures (the one form of art she really enjoys), her sister, and she shares a joy of balance, dichotomy, and most importantly, popcorn with her sister.
Dislikes: Chaos, rule breaking, lack of control, irresponsibility, idiocy, mad scientist art, spicy food, hot drinks, most other forms of art, most things Kalidas likes, people who do not like popcorn, her sister, people messing with her sister. |
|
Shrine: An ice sculpture of a circular archway. The ice never melts and it’s cold to the touch, though people won’t ever get stuck to it. (Unless they lick it, in which case, they’ll be stuck there for an hour at least.)
Ritual: To summon her, the person needs to put their hand on the statue and list off some science type fact. (It does not necessarily need to be correct, just be something sciencey.)

NOTE 2: If there’s a high chance your character will be dickish to her/does terribly irresponsible things that hurt other people on a regular basis/is one of those guys who murders people, it would probably be better to actually thread that out because Albinia is finicky. |

Re: Day 52, afternoon
[she's probably already noticed that he's one of Selyir's Shades now.]
Re: Day 52, afternoon
[Nods.] Good. [And ice sculpture vanishes and she's making a list.]
I'll be asking for some of the stuff as before and a few new things.
The Kaleidoscope Blossom is already extinct, but I am working on a domesticated version right now.
Did you happen to keep some of the Blue-Grape Vines as I advised before? Do you have some left, they're extinct in this area otherwise.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
[I gotta make a portal and check my stuff]
Re: Day 52, afternoon
Re: Day 52, afternoon
Here. Blue-Grape Vines. Not very many though, I'm afraid.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
I should have thought of keeping samples earlier. [Sighs.]
[But will take the offered sample.] Thank you for the sample though.
[Ghost of a smile there for a moment.]
Re: Day 52, afternoon
Re: Day 52, afternoon
You do?
Any sample would be good. I'm trying to domesticate any of the plants that aren't likely to try and eat you.
[Pitcher plant can stay dead, thank you.]
Re: Day 52, afternoon
[spreads out a small bag of random plant samples on the floor! Basically, he's kept a small sample of anything she's ever told him to get in exchange for medicine, unless the plant had a direct and obvious Earth analog (and thus wasn't interesting enough to keep).]
Re: Day 52, afternoon (wehuiehjwa sorry, thought I replied to this.)
This is why you're a good doctor.
[Even giving COMPLIMENTS. And those plants really didn't have obvious analogs so VERY happy goddess.]
[Also looking over her list. Seems to pause, CONSIDERING, before adding something at the bottom. Then will hold out the list.]
I can fill up some of what you want now for these samples. You don't have to get everything on the list to fill up the rest, but if you wanted to get extra, that's always all right.
[Quills from a Flying Porcumonkey
Orange mushrooms, powder intact
Gummelon
Azure vines (liquid not solidified.)
Pilot Frogs
The plant with the eyeball like berries.
Bluenuts.
One of those ten foot long eel fishes would be nice, but don't do anything risky.]
Re: Day 52, afternoon (wehuiehjwa sorry, thought I replied to this.)
That last one might be tricky.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
But it'd be worth a fair amount and C has many capable fighters. [A slight shrug.]
Re: Day 52, afternoon
Re: Day 52, afternoon
But I'd never recommend anyone go out and do something alone.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
Re: Day 52, afternoon
It won't be required. But I have wanted to study one, so getting word around an apartment that have many who seem to....like? Me might be the best way to do it.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
I'll spread the word. We might be able to manage something.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
Re: Day 52, afternoon
May I ask if you've seen any traces of Sherlock lately?
Re: Day 52, afternoon
Re: Day 52, afternoon
[he's probably asked you this a couple times before :(]
Re: Day 52, afternoon
[Looking distant for a moment before she shakes her head.]
Nothing yet.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
... thank you. Thank you for the information.
Re: Day 52, afternoon
[A flash of sympathy before she bows her head.] You're welcome.
