I look like I got some radioactive version of gangrene.
[He runs a hand over his wrist to see if it feels abnormal but all he can feel is that static electricity tingle again. The gem really is inside his arm right now...
Which makes him think out loud,] Should I try a spell again?
[He does what Elliot suggested before- Being concentrating on something in his mind and trying to make something happen. This time he feels a strange foreign energy inside his body. He focuses on that static-electricity feeling and...
Suddenly magic is forming in his hand. A large crackling sphere of thunder!!]
Aaaaghhh--!! [And of course he drops it in his surprise and it explodes at their feet between them. At least it's a tiny explosion!]
[HE'S A BABY BROTHER, savage is in his nature. But he just smiles and laughs sheepishly at the apology. It's appreciated!
As for the spell? Elliot makes a surprised little gasp and jumps back a little, so the explosion happens without any harm coming to him. But while Zack is freaked?
Elliot is thrilled. He claps his hands together and beams excitedly]
[Zack's looking half way between shocked and confused. But luckily Elliot's enthusiasm seems to bring him down from it. He laughs awkwardly and stares at his glowing wrist.]
Guess... Guess I did.
[He might not be as talented at Elliot (and he never will be) but honestly it feels good being about to do something unique and different. To feel a little stronger.]
Yeah! Alright! Magic! I did the thing! [His grin gets bigger.]
[Elliot meanwhile? Feels...surprisingly happy. He could've felt jealous that someone else had a power like his-but instead? It felt nice. His cousin had magic like he did, maybe he wasn't such an odd duck after all.]
And it was lightning too! That's impressive! It took my a few months before I got my first lightning spell.

[He feels triumphant, accomplished. He still has no damn clue how he's going to get the rock out of his arm but he'll think about that later.]
Still wouldn't mind something like a giant sword but hey, this'll do for now.
no subject
[Yeah about that...Elliot has no idea either welp]
Why a giant sword?
no subject
Natty's got a sword. I want one too. But something that really destroys.
no subject
[How is he the youngest, honestly]
W-Well, maybe you'll get one eventually. Do you remember having one in the memories?
no subject
Yeah, I do! Smashing and slashing up monsters. It's almost in every single one I've remembered.
no subject
How big a sword is it?
no subject
[He's not even joking.]
no subject
That's huge!
no subject
If my past self could heft around swords as big as you, he was probably a pretty cool dude.
[One of these days he'll get his big sword.]

But what if it hits a ceiling or a wall while you're swinging it? It might get stuck.

[Get good or go home?]
Anyway, thanks Elliot. I didn't think I was gonna be able to do anything with this.
[He stares at his wrist again. Magic. Actual magic.]

[He might have Doubts.]
Aha, oh it's nothing! Sorry...you have a glowing wrist now?
no subject
I guess it's better than a tattoo.

[He is so worrying a little]
