I could potentially ask Cadeuceus-san if he'd be willing to make some of the jar lights for inside the greenhouse. As long as we provide the jars or bottles for it, I don't see him saying no. [Several of them are united in keeping the gardens going until this nonsense with the sun is sorted out, and Haru's glad for it. (And that, while she wasn't quite herself, she still wanted to keep the plants alive.)]

[fatalis]

We can both ask. He can't say no to both of us. [ Jayce laughs. ] I could see if I have any jars laying around. Or I could get into glass blowing. How hard can it be? [ Famous last words, honestly. ]

[coolcustomer]

Much harder than it looks, probably. Besides, you'd need somewhere to heat the glass, and somewhere to let it cool slowly so it doesn't crack. [The workshop's a nice little setup, Haru will admit, but it may not be cut out for that kind of expansion.]

[fatalis]

Probably. [ Jayce doesn't seem all that deterred, though he's smart enough to know they don't really have time for him to build the parts he'd need or for him to figure how how to actually blow glass. ] Maybe later.

I should have some jars laying around though. [ Somewhere. The workshop is organized chaos at best. ] Maybe.

[ As he's rooting around in one of the cabinets: ] Do you know how he's making the lights?

[coolcustomer]

They're magical in nature, I know that much. I assume the jars are something to hold the enchantment and let the light through.

[fatalis]

Maybe he can teach us. Do you know anything about magic? [ Jayce sets a couple of jars on the worktop and moves to another drawer. ] I've been researching it all my life.

[coolcustomer]

Not this kind. It's not very common at home. [And what little she's stumbled across is very, very different.]

[fatalis]

It wasn't where I was from either. I wanted to try to bring magic to the people of my home. It... didn't go the way I dreamed it would. [ Jayce stills for a second, and then resumes poking around his place for jars as a distraction. ]

[coolcustomer]

...Things rarely do, it seems. [Something something no plan survives contact with the enemy?] Still, it's worth trying.

[fatalis]

I agree. [ Because Jayce is still a dreamer, even after everything. ] I know I'd do it all again, if given the chance. Just maybe a little differently next time.
