[closed] stone sour
🧙 WHO: Kirishima, Ururaka, Yaoyorozu
⚔️️ WHAT: Assistance Mission May; "Holo, Goodbye"
🕒 WHEN: May
🗺️ WHERE: Starting up the holo river
⚠️ WARNINGS: Musings on death and mortality that'd be unexpected for teenagers, I'd guess?
"Head up to the river just north-west of Camelot's farmland. This time of year, the river will sparkle with holographic shine. Prismatic rainbows dance across the surface of the water, and fairies of all kinds enjoy drinking and celebrating. This comes from a special spirit that goes around purifying stones that gather natural energy throughout the year. The spirit spends most of the year in Elphame and the Mountains, so it only spends one week a year near Camelot City. Unfortunately, my grandmother is ailing this year and is unable to come. I have to take care of her. If you could get one of the holographic rocks and bring it to us before the holo wears off so she can see them one last time, we'll be eternally grateful."
Altogether they'd been cordial. Hero training had taught them phrases to say during a crisis, but this was different. They - the teens and pro heroes of Tomorrow in their world - were supposed to be the people who preserved life as much as they could, worked with emergencies in progress, were supposed to be reassuring. Their client this mission was not... not to be reassured. What was happening now was a long time coming, not a sudden trauma. She seemed so certain of her grandmother's end to the point comforting otherwise seemed so silly.
And so when Kirishima meets his allies outside of the little home they've visited, he feels a bit shaken. It feels wrong to smile. He clears his throat instead.
"So um... it seems pretty straight-forward?" Kirishima ventures, awkwardly inching a hand up towards his nape to rub. "Any tricks or, um, enchantments you two know of?"

"Alright, you're both right. I'm going to bring us down now, let me just find a safe clearing near the intended path..." And it's not too difficult to find, thankfully. Just a place where the treeline isn't so dense, and Ochako makes her descent first, then brings down Momo and Kirishima after, slowly. Once they're only a few feet from the ground, she releases them by tapping her fingers together and-- "Release."
It just works better that way. Helps her focus. "Ehehe, I'm sorry I couldn't get us farther, but I still have a lot to learn even with this magic, I guess. But I'm glad to be of use for this much. Let me call Aludra-san now."
And hope to god she lets anyone ride her, let alone two new people.
