[The shuffling of papers and some sort of metallic object getting the last few details hammered into it could be heard in the background before a few friendly faces appeared on the screen.]

Buon pomeriggio Asgard!

Aladdin, Tony Stark and I have been working on a project for a few weeks now and I think we are to the stage where we could use some help with it. That is if anyone interested in a light weight armor with the added protection of runes? We could use a few volunteers to test the design.

We need people with all sorts of different shapes and body types for this. It's important to get all information we can so this will work.

[Aladdin says over his shoulder, he is doing a few last minute checks on the rune work.]

Si, just as he says. So would any of you be willing?

Comments

[allpurposescarf]

As long as you don't need anyone who's familiar with the runes in question, I'd be glad to help out.

[true_renaissance_man]

Doctor, wonderful! No you will not need to know anything about the runes. You will just need to stand very still and allow us to test the heat resistance by lighting you on fire.

[He is probably kidding.



Maybe. ]

[snugglesjugs]

I'm the rune expert here so you don't need to know anything before hand. These will be physical tests not magical ones.

[It will be like taking P.E.]

[tonsofpun]

If it's lightweight, count me in. Got anything that'd let me stay in full armor and use a bow?

Voice;

[snugglesjugs]

Armor questions would have to go to Tony and Leonardo, but I can do a few things to a bow.

Voice;

[true_renaissance_man]

That is exactly what we are trying to decide with the testing. Would you like to try on the prototype and see if it works as you would want it to? It might help us improve the design.

I'll be passing. [She pulled her collar down to reveal the glimpse of dragonscales pounded and fitted to a bodysuit underneath her clothes.] I don't want you using resources on an odd body type when we have few enough.

However, points to you guys for trying out the idea. I haven't tried putting runes on this, so I might look into what you use. What sorts are you working with?

[snugglesjugs]

Hi Sam, I actually put in one of yours in the layout we have for this particular set.

[true_renaissance_man]

You have made armor out of...

[Squint. He has seen those scale before?]

Are those dragon scales? How did you ever find enough to make armor out of them?

[knightime]

I'd be up for it. If you still need volunteers.

No secret contract where I sign my soul away or anything, right? Gotta cover my bases is all. [He's kidding.]

Light weight armor, though. Durable but doesn't slow us down?

[snugglesjugs]

We're testing to see how durable it will be.

[true_renaissance_man]

Messer Stark did have some wonderful ideas to make the armor easier to move in.

[Smile. Contracts for souls, ha! ]

We will not be requiring any souls today, just people willing to try out what we have created and offer suggestions on how best to improve on it.

[beyondmeasure]

I'm interested. How do the runes work?

video

[snugglesjugs]

Runes are written form of magic. To cast any arrays with them you'd need runic ink and the object or area you wish to enchant.

[ video ]

[true_renaissance_man]

I see you are already speaking to Aladdin he can probably explain them the best. As for the armor would you like to try it?

[bythewaves]

Armor you say? [ Have a curious elf ] It has been long and long since I had use for such a thing, but if we are to go to war it would not go amiss. What sort of aid would you need?

[true_renaissance_man]

We would like to find people willing to try the armor on and see if it really allows people to move as we think it will and... it might not hurt to test it against some magic to see how well it holds up under that kind of attack. May I ask which God Power you have?

[snugglesjugs]

Pretty much what Leonardo just said. Though I'll be focusing on montiering the magic involved.

[optimistical]

Since it's light weight, it's not too bulky, right?

[ Naegi didn't really think of armor, but with everything going on, it wouldn't be a bad idea to test some out. Plus, helping...! ]

video.

[true_renaissance_man]

That is just what we were trying to achieve! Give those fighting extra protection without holding them back or making it difficult to move. I think we are on the right track with it.

You are interested?

video.

[snugglesjugs]

Magical light armor! No need to worry about wearing a heavy suit.

[hollowchild]

If it offers good freedom of movement, I may be interested.

[true_renaissance_man]

It should, I mean that is what we are hoping for with the design. We are are Messer Stark's workshop today, if you would like to try it you could stop by.

voice

[zen_en_vert]

I'll volunteer.

[He's in, carte blanche, whenever Tony is doing science.]

voice

[true_renaissance_man]

[He may regret that when he meets the other two 'mad scientist-types' working with Tony.]

How nice of you to join! Are you a member of one of the fighting groups?

[digophelia]

I know a good volunteer for this.

[ And it's not Alice, herself. She knows someone who needs this. ]

[true_renaissance_man]

Oh? Who were you thinking of Alice?

[He needs to message a few people about this anyway, might as well add a name to the list. ]

[Action] After all the test

[snugglesjugs]

[Aladdin just finished packing up the last of the supplies]

Okay that should be everything. I'm glad we had such a good turn out.

[His backpack in hand]

Okay I'm heading back to the guild, I have a few last things to sort out.

[Action] After all the test

[true_renaissance_man]

[Leonardo, flopped back in the nearest chair as he was, still stood when Aladdin moved to leave. ]

Asgard is filled with wonderfully helpful people. There are so many possible improvements that might be made...

But, you are intending to keep working on this now? After such a long day you should think about getting some rest.
