I. CameCon

A. Around the Convention (Fenton)

[ While Fenton had adapted fairly well to being in a completely different world of Arthurian legend with humans and learning magic, there was still something oddly fascinating about a gaming convention in the middle of Camelot. And ever curious, Fenton knew he had to attend and see for himself.

He hadn't been to many conventions back home before, but this seems pretty similar to what he's heard about from others (usually his mother when she was helping with security). He spends a good amount of time simply walking around, taking in the sites and exploring the different wares. Eventually he finds the gaming stage for NASTAR Racing Game, and plugs in his phone to give it a try. ]

Oh-hoh man! This is awesome!

[ He doesn't even mind that he doesn't rank too high in the races, he's just having fun throwing rocks at space pirates.

When it's time for him to take a break, he heads over to sit at the picnic area by the LARPing game, watching the players while nibbling on a muffin. ]

B. Convention Flooding (Gizmoduck)

[ Things quickly become chaotic when the rain breaks through and the convention center starts to flood. But Fenton is able to find someplace out of sight, and hopefully no one hears the cry of "BLATHERING BLATHERSKITE!" over all the panic going on.

Soon Gizmoduck is rushing through the hall, his extendo-arms lifting people up and out of the way of the water. ]

I have you, citizen! [ He knows it's only a temporary solution, though, especially since it's still raining and water is still pouring in. ] Just hang on tight! I think I can clear a path!

[ Or at least he would, but the lights suddenly going out throws him off a little. ]

...Seriously?

II. Quest: Vital Venoms (Gizmoduck)

[ While Fenton didn't exactly have a fear of spiders, he does have to admit that even this quest has him hesitating just a bit. But it seems pretty dangerous, so the more he does the quest hopefully the less other people will have to suffer through it. Plus he hopes that the armor is strong enough to endure the bite and he won't have to worry about the venom.

So he makes his way to the caves in the hills of Red Spring, keep an eye out for any of the spider webs. While he needs to find a spider, he wasn't really in a hurry for one to find him. ]

III. Training Grounds (Fenton)

[ While he does his best to practice both kinds of magic, Fenton does find that he has an easier time with the Technomancy than he does with the Elemental. Probably because of his experience with the Gizmosuit, and how the suit is connected to his mind feeling similar to the sensation of using the tech magic.

Still, he doesn't want to fall behind with his Elemental magic either, so he makes sure to concentrate on those a little more. He finds that electricity comes easiest - it's almost like building up a charge for a static shock, so he uses that feeling when trying to generate electricity. Plus it's just kind of fun.

But he also tries to practice with other elements as well. Those are...less controlled, as a stray clump of dirt or stream of water or ball of fire narrowly misses another person practicing. ]

S-Sorry!

IV. Wildcard (Fenton)

((OOC: Fenton can be seen around Camelot, working odd jobs or just wandering around and taking notes of various shops and locations. So feel free to run into him somewhere, or hit me up at

usamichan13 to plan something else!))

Woo-hoo! That's one big ugly mug! Go for a leg!

[ You don't mind Della being a VERY loud cheerleader as she waves the torch around, right??? ]

[ He only minds a bit because her voice does draw the spider's attention. But he uses the distraction to lunge for the spider, trying to wrestle it down.

The spider recovers a bit, trying to take a bite at him, but luckily the armor does prevent the venom from getting to him.

When it tries to escape and moves towards Della, though, Fenton uses the extendo-arms to wrap around the spider to try to keep it still. ]

Della...! We need something to tie it up!

We can use the webbing! ... Which... I burned.

[ Oops. Maybe they could have thought this through a little better. ]

No, no, it's fine! I'll knock it out with the torch, it's clubbin' size!

[ So in she runs, ready to whallop the spider head with the torch, and SURELY NOTHING WILL GO WRONG - ]

W-Wait, Della - !

[ He tries to keep a hold on the spider, but with his arms wrapped around it's legs he can't get a good grip on its chelicerae. With just enough wiggle room, the spider makes a lunge at Della, snapping at the closest part of her. ]

[ everything's fine everything's fine everything's -

CHOMP ]

OW! Oh, you jerk, I hope I taste awful!

[ She smacks the spider's mouth away, trying to make it let go! But she doesn't feel any bones break, thank goodness! Just the skin and... oh. oh dear. ]

Della!

[ Finally getting a better grip on the spider, he wrestles it away and manages to toss it back a good distance, then quickly comes to Della's side. ]

Are you all right? Did it puncture you?

[ She holds up her arm, showing the bite mark that went through her pilot's jacket. ]

I think... We just accidentally went through with my first plan.

[ That's definitely looking like poison dribble on her feathers. ]

[ OH SHOOT OH SHOOT OH SHOOT OKAY DON'T PANIC DON'T PANIC ]

We need to leave. Immediately.

[ Luckily the suit hides how much he's ABSOLUTELY FREAKING OUT, though Della might catch a touch of it in his voice. Still, he does his best to keep some semblance of the professional superhero calm as he gathers her up, carrying her as he speeds out of the cave, outrunning the spider behind him.

Unfortunately the suit's jets are currently deactivated, but the suit still does enhance his speed, letting him move faster than he would if he tried to run on foot. Hopefully they can get back with enough time. ]

[ Della just lays in his arms, unable to really do much else. But she tries to keep a positive attitude! ]

Hey, I already had no feeling in one leg, so now they match!

[ ... DELLA THIS IS NOT HELPING ]

[ REALLY NOT HELPING ]

You don't have to worry about that! Everything's going to be just fine!

[ He was definitely going to make sure of that. ]

Of course it is! And we've gotten the mission cleared! We just have to get back to those folks, they'll extract the venom, I can't feel my left arm, and it's a job well done for the day!

[ DELLA ]

[ STOP THAT ]

R-Right! Once we get you back to the healers, everything should be okay! You'll get that feeling back in your arm for sure.

[ Suuuuuuuper reassuring, Fenton. ]

[ she mean well!!! ]

Exactly! Just focus on the positives! Deep breaths, Fenton!

[ Who's supposed to be reassuring who here? Not that he doesn't take those deep breaths anyway, but still.

It feels like it takes so long though to go back the way that they came, even with him going as fast as the unicycle will take him. But he does finally make it back to town, and guns it towards the nearest healers. ]

[ By this time, the paralyzing effects have crawled all the way up her body. How can you tell?

Della has, at last, shut up. Because now she can't talk. She at least tries to keep her eyes cheerful in a desperate attempt to reassure Fenton! ]

[ It is not reassuring, mostly because he's already panicking. But he keeps his calm long enough to arrive at the healers, where he will carefully and gently pass Della to them so they could take care of her.

Then it's just a matter of waiting as they remove the poison from her body. And because of the size of his armor, the healers ask him to wait outside, which is fine because it gives him more room to pace worryingly. ]

[ Eventually, Della is allowed to leave! And she looks fine.... kinda. She's physically fine, but the venom and healing aftermath may have made her a little... loopy. ]

Heyyyy, big F! I mean, big G!

[ Ooooooooooooh that's not good. ]

Uh...heyyyyyy, Della? How're you feeling?

Faaaaantastic! I don't have any venom in me anymore! .... I might also not have a lot of blood in me! So, we're okay if we run into any vampires.

[ She's gunna pass out real soon. ]

H'oooooookay. I'm just gonna - [ Scoop her up and carry her, that's what he's gonna do. ] Let's, uh...get you home, huh?

[ Except he actually had no idea where she lives. He can only assume the inn, but he doesn't actually...know what room she's in. ]

And Iiii'm just gunna... take a nap!

[ FWUMP. And she's out like a light... and a bit snuggly. ]

[ ...welp, that sure did happen. And not knowing where her room is, his only real option is to take her to his apartment.

So he that's what he does, carrying her back to the hotel and up to his room where he sets her on his bed. Then, after tucking her in a bit, he deactivates the suit and puts it away.

Well...maybe he should make something for her to eat when she wakes up. ]

[ Hours later, Della does wake up... in a frenzy, roughly feeling everything she can reach - ]

NOT THE MOON NOT THE MOON NOT THE MOON -

[ And then instantly calming down like nothing happened, even yawning peacefully. ]

Mmm... What time is it? Where am I?

[ He jumps when he hears Della yelling, but by the time he rushes back in to check on her she's already up, looking like everything was fine. ]

Hey, are you all right? Were you having a bad dream?

Hm? What do you mean?

[ A pause to consider... oh! ]

Ah, that! Nah, it's just how I've woken up every morning since I returned to earth.

[ Clearly no biggie and completely normal. ]

This your place?
