"I am making those. Eventually people won't even need to fight in wars. Still will though, humans never change." Lita was glad the girl had stopped crying, it was distressing and distracting. Plus she got to talk about the good her experiments would do and that was always a mood raiser with her. "Well the process is really complicated but with the right pieces and and stitching, plus a little bit of lightning, I can bring things to life that were already dead or never even existed. Plus I don't have to worry about things going horribly wrong for no reason like those magicians do. Once I have everything perfect, it always works." She grinned broadly.

Teleia starred with complete interest. This woman seemed to know a lot of fascinating things. Times like this she was glad she left the island. She got to meet such interesting people. Without knowing she had attached herself to the woman’s arm.
“Lightning can be good too? Back on Asteria, lightning normally meant a bad storm was coming. Which is not good at all. Storms are scary, don’t you agree?” She asked, with a small giggle. She seemed really excited now, so much so she was ready to hug the woman.

"Not at all. Storms are a big part of my work. Without lightning storms I would have o turn to those magicians and I can't stand them." Her hand absentmindedly clicked at the device. That's not to say magic doesn't have it's uses, but it is just so unscientific." Since one hand was free she snapped her fingers twice and a light mist began to spray through the area, lightly dampening the two of them and coating the plants around them in dew. "See, just out of nowhere. No logic for it to even happen but it does. I prefer my science."

Alumina had not seen Rin in a while. She had become worried and a bit scarred for the fox's life, she was also disappointed since she had wanted to discuss with Rin her realization with Jo the other night and how they could handle the fact that Alumina would end up living longer no matter what.
Alumina stuck her parasol in the ground to help protect her from the sun (as a vampire she could easily could really bad sun-burns if she stayed out to long,y'know the kind that caused death) and decided to do what she always did to take her mind off of things:garden. So Alumina hummed to herself while taking care of colorful flowers, and although she was a better piano-player then singer her hums weren't completely out of tune.
She heard someone else come into the garden but Alumina really didn't bother to notice, she didn't want to disturb their peace as much as she didn't want them to disturb hers. Suddenly she heard someone else walk in, and then she heard them talking about inventions or magicians or something like that.
Alumina stood up in annoyance, and turned to face the two only to have her mouth drop in shock at the sight of a young girl with long white hair that looked much like her own. The girl was also quite short like her,"Maybe I was wrong. Maybe there are more of me in Venus..."Alumina said to herself walking over the two. "Excuse me..."she said stepping up to the two. She put herself next to the young girl and compared heights.
The young girl was still taller then her in the end.
Shit.

Teleia listened to her new friend's words. "I like magic, who cares if it does not hold logic. Neither does love right!?" she smiled happily, thinking she had made a point.
Teleia heard someone say something, then she felt a person near her side. This startled her enough to poof into a puff of fog. She moved around to behind the woman she had been talking to, and regained her physical form. Her eyes focusing on the person who had entered their proximity. A short girl? Light hair.....A fogling like me!?

Alumina frowned as the girl transformed into a puff of smoke,"Oh...it's just a fogling..."she sighed rolling her eyes and waving her hand at the puff of smoke. "Maybe I'm right,maybe vampires really do attract all kinds of fog..."she muttered.
When the girl returned back to normal Alumina curtsied to her and the scientist,"My name is Alumina Karen Nadine,"she said formally,"I am very pleased to meet you,"although her tone of voice would suggest other-wise, Alumina still managed to keep pleasant amongst the unwanted company.

Lita looked down at the two girls. There certainly was surprising amount of children here. First was this girl who somehow turned into fog, probably a defense mechanism and probably also magic. And now there was an even smaller girl. Though they seem to have gotten off on the wrong foot. The new girl seemed to be muttering to herself. "Why hello there miss Nadine. It's so nice to make your acquaintance." Lita figured she might as well play along with their games so she just smiled and clicked her device twice more.

"Pleased to make your acquintence as well,"Alumina replied back. she noticed Lita's fingers playing with something and began to hear a clicking noise,her curiousity piqued and she caught site of the small invention in Lita's hands. "If you don't mind me asking..."Alumina began,"...what is that device?"

Teleia, stepped out from behind Lita. Her eyes staying on the smaller girl. “I am Teleia Noles.” She smiled happily and offered her hand to the other. “I am sorry for running away, I just scare easily that’s all.” She let out a nervous giggle, after saying this.
She too heard the clicking and turned to the taller of the trio. “Would you please stop that! You know it does bad stuff! Besides if it does suddenly decide to work, then what will happen to me while I am standing right next to you! I don’t wanna get burned!” she said loudly.

"If it hasn't exploded yet then it isn't going to explode until I change something about it." She turned her attention back to the new girl's question. "This is my newest invention. It will replace this ratty old cloak." She pulled on the edges of her cloak. "When I click it, like so." She clicked it. "it will explode and engulf me in a small pillar of fire. Thus rendering all thoughts of coming near me pointless and self defeating." She stared at it for a few seconds. "But all it does right now is click. So I'm trying to make it work out here where my employee won't be as likely to panic."

"Pleased to meet you,"Alumina told Tel taking her hand, she looked up at Lita in shock. Alumina had been set on fire a couple of times before,living as long as she had getting into dangerous things like that was inevitable but she'd always be better by the time it was over. But when she heard of a human trying to set herself on fire she was somewhat shocked,"Won't you..die!?"

“I already tried to tell her that! She won’t listen though!” She huffed looing back at Lita. A serious look dawned on her childish face. “The best way to stay unharmed is to stay out of a fight...RIGHT!?” she turned back around to look at Alumina. She was hoping that the girl would agree with her. Maybe two people could convince the scientist that there were better ways to do things, though that was probably a pipe dream at best.

"Well of course that would be preferable. But you have no idea how many people really do wish I'd stop breathing. Still, I do try and be nonviolent." Lita shrugged. "I doubt you'd understand but there are a lot of people out there who don't think I should be bringing things to life. They've got lots of money for whoever brings me in first. Well, all together lots of money. Though separately I don't think it's all that much." She clicked the device again. "And of course I would die if I was stabbed. That's why I light myself on fire. People don't stab you when you're on fire. It's sort of a deterrent."

Alumina raised an eye-brow at Lita,"Um...yes...I see.."she said in a somewhat confused voice. Out of the two eccentric people she had met in Venus so far, Jo and Rin, this scientist was by far the weirdest of the two.
But something caught Alumina's ears when she mentioned talking about bringing things to life. Her eyes became wide,"You're trying to make things alive...?"she asked,she then looked to her left and then to her right and stepped up to Lita. "Can you edit people's life spans by chance?"

“Maybe those people need a lecture on how to treat people then!” she said to Lita, a few tears falling from her eyes when the conversation shifted back to violence. In all honesty this conversation had confused her more than once. She had come here to enjoy the flowers, now she was listening to all of this.
“......Edit....life......span?” Teleia said each word with some thought. She did not get what Alumina was saying. She stood there with a finger on her chin trying to piece it together,
