Planetside - OTA

[filia_terrae]

In the old days, soil used to be tilled by hand. The process was exacting - acres could take hours, and labor was expensive and time-consuming. As society marched inexorably into the future, the work fell to machines, and while the colonists of Ajilon Prime almost certainly have machines to till the soil with, those machines require operators and time, both precious luxuries where they stand.

With Kuvira around, that is not so much a problem anymore.

It'll be hard to miss her, working the earth as she is - dozens of acres are tilled within seconds of each other as she bends the earth to her will. The colonists look on, jaws slack in awe.

She doesn't mind. It's nice, having an audience.

The colonists weren't the only ones watching in awe!

"Wow! That's one incredible jutsu!" Minoru exclaimed, bouncing over the earth as it was tilled. "I can't even see where it stopped!!"

"Thank you," Kuvira says, giving a small bow to Minoru as she smirks. (Receiving praise is nice, too.) "It's really quite elementary, once you learn the forms."

Then, as she comes up out of the bow:

"I am Kuvira. What is your name?"

[itmeanstruth]

"Minoru." He smiled, returning the bow. "Pleased to meet you."

He glanced once more at her handiwork. Even in Sage Mode, he could barely feel or manipulate earth. Nothing at all compared to what she was able to do.

"My elemental affinity won't do much good until nightfall." He laughed.

"You're an earthbender of sorts?"

Curious. He doesn't look like one of her people, and his name sounds - foreign.

"I hadn't thought I'd meet another."

[itmeanstruth]

"Not earth." He shook his head. "Fire."

He tilted his head back and blew a small plume of flames into the air.

"It's the only element I've ever been able to figure out."
