Planet fall!

Kevin had heard the call to go out for volunteers to go down to the planet and start working on helping them reap a crop that will actually let them survive.

Kevin misses gardening. He misses it so much that he'd jumped at the chance to come down here and put his back to work, helping out the planet.

He sticks his hoe into the ground and leans on it. Instead of worrying about it, he removes the clunky metal bracelet and slips off his two shirts, tying them around his waist. The bracelet goes back on and he feels it take over his powers.

With the bracelet, his powers completely don't work, instead of being hard to work. He doesn't care how clunky it is, it works and that's all that matters. He doesn't have to worry about accidentally hurting someone with it on. That's good.

He bends his back and settles back to work. He cannot believe how much he's missed this. He doesn't remove his gloves, protecting his hands from blisters, but it's nice to still be able to work.

Sweat slicks his back, and he keeps working along the row he'd been assigned to. This is actually fun for him. He starts humming "Sweet Home Alabama" to himself.

In spite of Luna's magic it turns out she's actually a better researcher than planter. But she had been making trips planetside to run saplings and seeds (along with research notes) to people and decided to make a quick stop to check on Kevin. Her hair had been pulled into a ponytail but a few loose hairs escaped as her radishes seemed to bounce,"Fresh set of saplings everyone!" her accent sticking out like a sore thumb,"And need a quick round of water for that batch?" making the offer to use her magic to help things as she was able.

With a graceful (in spite of her hand woes) flick of the wrist Luna casts a simple spell to send water to the row and saplings Kevin suggested. "Work in progress?" she offered,"Turns out I've got a lot of things to face down since turns out me and power outages don't exactly mix."
