March 1st-21st, Weapons and Such!

Leonardo will have quietly informed people who requested weapons of him that they are done through March! The Assassins in particular will be privately reached out to about the hidden blades and told to come pick them up. After those particular requests are fulfilled, Leonardo will put a little wooden sword out front of the forge pointing inside, and put it out there in the public knowledge that blades can be found inside.

His forge is fairly scattered as Leonardo himself is always working on about ten projects at the same time. There's wood stockpiled along with his steel and iron, and there's a row of a few knives and a few swords to the side. The artist is almost always there, day and night, or he is out front finishing up the boat to the bunker pod. It's a rather simple looking place for now, outside of flowers that have been drawn in charcoal on the wall.

[you can assume that your character requested something before and wants to pick it up now, or you can just IC from now on assume that your character has the item they want!]

March 13th-20th, Powers Abound

Leonardo cannot help his curiosity when he realizes there are powers that people can just pick up. As someone who has only recently gotten comfortable with his own, he's fascinated. He spends a great deal of time thinking about what he wants, and resolves to try all of them eventually. For now though, he goes with what he's been longing for: warmth! Certain that it is too dangerous to try them in the bunker, he travels back to the village and goes a safe distance away to test them out.

The first two days are not great. He can't seem to get the fire to stop being on his fingertips, and he accidentally shoots fire near a tree, but it doesn't set fire, which is good as he would start to panic. Instead it hits rocks, so phew. As the week progresses he gains more control of it and can be seen playfully making patterns in the sky with the flames, especially late at night where he can be seen like a beacon,

Powers!

He really was creative, Alistair thought as he watched Leonardo painting the sky with fire. Of course, the only issue was that fire tended to... well. Burn. And that was why he was coming up, hoping to keep an eye on things. Not that he didn't have confidence in Leo - he did. He just also knew fire was its own beast with its own ideas and there was still enough Templar in him to want to make sure magic stuff didn't go too far.

Even if just the thought of that made him stop mid-step. He hated late-occurring realisations. He really did. Damn it, Sereda.

But he shook his head, pulling himself out of it, and cleared his throat before asking, "Having fun?" with a smile on his face. Leonardo made him happy, even if memories weren't pleasant.

Leonardo was currently just making patterns, but he did occasionally create the design of animals, a cat, a crocdog from here, the details in fire distinct before they faded into the sky. His artistic eye never really failed him, but mostly it was just meant in good fun at the moment. He picked fire to keep warm, and he did feel warm all the time now. It was as if the fire was in him and the cold didn't bite nearly as hard.

He glanced over at the throat clearing, and the smile on his face when he saw Alistair was as bright as the fire itself. His heart still beat faster when he saw that handsome face or heard his voice, and he dropped his hands for a moment. "I have been trying to design a dragon for you, but it may be too grand for even my mind. I am determined!" He'll buy another week of powers if he must to get it right.

Leoardno was not shy about walking over to his new romantic partner and taking his hand, lifting it to his mouth for a sweet kiss on the knuckles. "I am having fun yes, but having you near is always better."

The smile became all the more real with that greeting. And, after a light laugh, he reached to pull Leonardo into a hug, and to kiss his forehead warmly. "It's funny, isn't it. Or, I mean. To me, it is - how I'll be doing something completely unrelated, and I'll think of you and..."

Alistair shook his head at himself, smile remaining as he looked to Leonardo's eyes. "You just. Pop into my head all the time. Even when all I'm doing is prospecting the trees. But that's beside the point. I promise you don't have to make a dragon for me. I'm quite happy with cats and rabbits. They have smaller teeth."
