[Liet is walking by the lake, lost in thought. Unfortunately, this leads to him--already walking far too near the water--tripping on a rock and tumbling forward. He hopes he can swim, when--

He finds himself floating in the lake, a forcefield keeping the water away and him afloat.]

W-what--?

[And lo, a dragon comes roaring down at Lithuania! It is screaming as it is ready to attack! Or maybe it's saying hi but shut up this is better.

But then it doesn't matter as the dragon bounces harmlessly off the forcefield and skids to a stop on a frozen section of the ice.]

((subaru has mind reading))

Aww. My force fields can't do that...

[vytis]

A-ahh, look ou-- [Lithuania's knocked back into the water for a moment at the moment of impact, but soon he comes bobbing out and on top of the water again. It takes him a moment, but eventually he shifts the force field a bit and starts moving toward the ice.]

U-um, are you okay...? [He's not sure if the dragon can even understand him, but...]

[vytis]

Y-you have force fields, too? [Is this sort of thing normal?]

[airgeargaigar.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I do, or, well... I guess it's easier to say I do. It's kinda complicated.

[vytis]

Complicated? [Briefly, he wonders if he's being a bit nosy, but he's curious and he's said it already anyway. He manages to shift himself over to land by pushing his force fields around.]

[airgeargaigar.livejournal.com]

Well, it's magic. Sort of. But it involves science too.

[vytis]

[He tilts his head.] It being science seems like it would make more sense, somehow. Magic doesn't sit right with me. [...Though he's just floated around a lake in a force field.]

[airgeargaigar.livejournal.com]

Well... magic isn't quite right, I guess. I mean... magic is science, or, um... if magic works, science is magic? Um... I'm not quite sure how to put it...

[vytis]

[This... Doesn't make much sense to Liet.] M-maybe a demonstration...?

[blackmagicangel.livejournal.com]

[The dragon tries to get up for a moment, but can't seem to get a good enough hold on the ice. Even so, the dragon does nod.]

[vytis]

[Lietuva extends his force field under the dragon's feet to give it better traction. In doing so, he removes it from his own feet and falls over.] Were you a--Ahh!

[He stands back up carefully.] Were you always a dragon?

[airgeargaigar.livejournal.com]

Well, okay.

[It shook its long neck before stretching out and a bright, blinding light encompassed it...]

[blackmagicangel.livejournal.com]

[...and when the light faded, Nina appeared.]

I do not seem to be able to speak in that form. My apologies.

[vytis]

Oh, Miss Wyndia! I didn't recognize you. [Because of course he should have been able to. Or something.] Did you just gain that power?

[vytis]

[GAPE.] W-wow...

[airgeargaigar.livejournal.com]

So, yeah, it's magic, but it's scientific.

[vytis]

[Even with no memories, he's pretty sure he's never seen anything like that.] That's--amazing.

[airgeargaigar.livejournal.com]

Where I come from, a lot of soldiers can do it.

[vytis]

R-Really? Fights must be amazing there.

[blackmagicangel.livejournal.com]

Yes, only a few days ago. It seems... strange, to say the least. I apologize if I came off as aggressive.

[vytis]

It's alright, I was just surprised.

[blackmagicangel.livejournal.com]

I... was not expecting to bounce like that, though. May I ask what you did?

[vytis]

I'm not quite sure--I didn't know I could do that. But it's like a force field? I'm using it right now, actually. [He points to the ground where he's spread it out so he doesn't fall again.]
