18th Crystal: [Action/Voice]

[cladinthedark]

[Golbez is standing outside of community housing building two, looking up at the sky and watching the stars fall for the third night in a row. As a crash sounds from nearby, he mutters to himself.]

Not entirely dissimilar to a Meteo spell. I wonder where they happen to be landing... No doubt the barrier will prevent contact with us regardless, though.

[Rydia is passing the building, barely paying attention to the immediate area around her in favor of staring heavenward. Another tremor disrupts her attention and she frowns, glancing around. Then she catches sight of Golbez and heads towards him.]

Is it just me, or do these tremors seem to be growing more prominent?

[He turns his head to her and nods, then looks back at the sky.]

Extremely so. Whatever this is, it's getting closer.

[She stands alongside him and frowns as she stares upward.]

Nothing should be able to breach this barrier, right? At least I've never heard of it being otherwise....

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

I don't think that will be an issue. I am curious as to what's happening outside though.

Oh, I'm sorry.

[LOL VOICE I MEAN]

[nextgen-hokage.livejournal.com]

What if the barrier breaks?

[He steps back, moving aside and turns his head to her.]

Ah, not a problem. Distracted a little, I assume?

[Voice]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

It's stood up to so much in the past that I can't fathom it falling from this.

[Voice]

[nextgen-hokage.livejournal.com]

What if they're like, super powerful?

[Voice]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

They're rocks.

[Action]

[7thheavensmile.livejournal.com]

Yes, I was a million miles away.

[Action]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Doesn't seem like the stars themselves are quite that far anymore.

[He looks back up at the sky for a moment.] I wonder what the effects of having one of those rocks hit the barrier would be.

[Voice]

[nextgen-hokage.livejournal.com]

How do you know that?

[Voice]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Shooting stars are very large rocks falling from the sky. The trail they leave is from burning up on contact with atmosphere. That's common knowledge.

[Action]

[7thheavensmile.livejournal.com]

Looks like a few of them have come down to say hi to us.

I don't know... think one of those could damage it?

[Voice]

[nextgen-hokage.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but what if these are special ones! Or if they're not even rocks!

[Action]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

I have no idea. Given the attempts that have been made on it from inside, I somewhat doubt it... but it's not impossible.

Given what's happened when the barrier's been altered in the past, though, would we really want that?

[Voice]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

What else would they be? Descending star travelers?

[Voice]

[nextgen-hokage.livejournal.com]

Maybe?

[Action]

[7thheavensmile.livejournal.com]

Nothing's impossible, really.

Mm, probably not... it could be very dangerous out there.

[Voiced]

[compos-mentis.livejournal.com]

The minute there is danger the cage becomes the sanctuary.

Pah.

[Action]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Exactly.

It might result in a repeat of that... last event. Or something worse.

[Voiced]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

I beg your pardon?

Re: [Voice]

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

I doubt they'd be crashing if that were the case.

[Action]

[7thheavensmile.livejournal.com]

We wouldn't want that.

The ground's shaking a little...
