She can be quick, with upgraded long nerves and tendons ligaments to carry out her instructions more swiftly, reduced fat and muscle and bone to make her light on her feet, and an enhanced spatial awareness and memory for locations.

She can be keen, with enhanced sensory acuity and fine muscle control, enhanced muscle memory, and a natural talent for precognition.

She can be sharp, with her focus less subject to fatigue or distraction, her working memory enhanced, and her ability to notice out-of-place patterns improved.

She can have an improved ability to access her strength, at the expense of increased injury when she goes beyond her current limitations. She can have improved endurance, at the expense of an extra organ to support it and somewhat higher caloric needs. She can be more muscular, at the expense of some speed and dexterity.

She cannot have all of these things and be one creature. What will she be?

She will be sharp.  She will be keen.  She'll be quicker, too, but not at the expense of her strength.

Permalink

I bet it's going to try to do all of the quickness package if it does any of it, Deskyl warns. Like healing. I can probably stop it, but no promises, I'm not a prodigy at this.

Permalink

Then I'll make do, if I must.  I'm focusing on the first two first, anyway.

Permalink

Then she will be sharp, and she will be keen, and she will be quick.

Permalink

Not like that she won't.

Permalink

No.

She twists the part of the Force reducing Diana's muscle mass sharply, cutting off its ability to do so; her annoyance resonates through it.

Permalink

Thank you, Deskyl.

Diana's meditation ends, and she surfaces from the trance she was in.

Permalink

Used about a third of the buffer, Deskyl reports, before opening her eyes.

Permalink

"That went...really quite well.  Thank you, again, Deskyl.  ...If there's any help I can offer you in achieving something similar, it's yours to take."

Permalink

 

    "She says that the holocron has already been useful, ma'am, but she may take you up on that, too. She wants to think about what changes she'd like to make first, though."

Permalink

"Yes, that would be wise."

Permalink

 

    "Yes ma'am. Did you have any questions about her healing abilities?"

Permalink

"...None come immediately to mind?"

Permalink

 

    "She says 'all right', ma'am, and that you should know that it takes her about forty minutes of meditation to access the Light so that she can use that ability; she says that you shouldn't take any risks that assume she'll be able to heal you quickly."

Permalink

Diana nods.  Then she actually processes.  "...You can do that?"

Permalink

Deskyl chuckles and nods.

    "She says that she probably wouldn't've figured it out if she wasn't a Light prodigy, but yes, ma'am."

Permalink

"That's...really kriffing interesting and please tell me you've written it down somewhere, it'll make some of the Masters' heads explode if they find out!"

Permalink

 

    "She absolutely hasn't, ma'am, the Sith would have killed her if they'd found it. But she can try; she might have some trouble explaining it in Basic, she's used to using the Sith language to explain Force techniques in detail."

Permalink

"Well, I don't think that Jedi have no ways of learning Sith-the-language, even if I don't know if I know anyone who's done so, off the top of my head."

Permalink

 

    "She'll think about whether she wants to teach you any of its vocabulary, she says."

...hmmmm what if she leans over to snuggle Diana.

Permalink

Well then Diana simply must swoop in and snuggle back!

Permalink

Ee.

Kiss?

Permalink

!

Kiss!  What if...another kiss?
