Should I Awoo?

Control, it was one of the few things that Inami could still claim to have some modicum of in her life. Ulv hugging her, the sensation of this over-exuberant girl squishing up against her in one of those outlandish garbs she seemed to have a knack for creating. This maid uniform was certainly befitting of the Victorian era, and given the structural make of inami's abode, it wasn't as out of place here as one might imagine.

Yet, as Ulv made herself known, partaking in pleasantries such as snuggling Inami, who appeared to be rather non-plussed. She seemed tolerant, and maybe a tad appreciative of Ulv's appearance, especially seeing as it afforded her a much-needed distraction from the task at hand. However, in the soft lighting of inami's room, this turned into one of those distractions that were not a distraction at all, as ulv's roving gaze honed in on inami's work.

"Ulv, I wouldn't ask for you to partake in this fight. Family affairs are always the messiest of things, never seeming to end well. I am happy you don't have to be a part of this mess, as objectively I wish I did not have to partake either.

A phantom rush of air escaped Inami's lips, carrying the audible noise of her sigh with it. The queen shrugged faintly, allowing her slender frame to lean forward into the muscular, and yet surprisingly soft body of Ulv which remained in front of her. Inami's nose came to rest against the crook of Ulv's neck as if the queen was determined to siphon off the warmth, that radiated from this crimson-haired girls body.

Ulv had stated she had an idea, but that it was going to require Inami's trust. Trust was such a hard thing to give these days, which begged the question, did Inami trust Ulv? It was this line of logic that prompted Inami to respond.

"I trust you. Let's see what this idea of yours can do. "

Inami paused, as she began to take in the energy that was given to her from ulv. She did not know what this was going to do, she didn't really what was going to come from it. However, the thought of remaining inactive was more trouble to her than the thought of something backfiring. From this, it could be seen that the queen was legitimately trying to utilize the energy that was being given her to express the purpose denoted by it.

"I wonder... what this is going to do."

For inami, the amalgamated energy that shone within her began to construct the appearance of a mirror. What it showed within that mirror was none other than herself. Her horrid, decrepit self. It was as if her incandescent soul was brought upon itself, laid bare for Inami to see. Inami feared few things, the fact that she was one of those things though..., that was sad. The queen would take a deep, unsteady breath as she watched the image in the mirror.

Why was she so hesitant? Inami for the longest time feared her powers, feared her own energy. She was not like her sisters, who embraced their powers in their entirety. Instead, she was even now attempting to forsake the powers that had been granted her. Call it illogicality, but Inami wished to be normal to an extent; normal in the sense that she hoped that she could live a normal life. Not one fraught with peril, but one that was much more mellow, without all the excess excitement.

The queen studied the image that was portrayed within the mirror. This horrifying creature was as much a part of her, as she was a part of it. Within the sanctum of her mind, the bright bastion of her morality shining against the darkness-Inami exhaled. It wouldn't help her to forsake herself with the intent of becoming something she was not. As the queen raised her palm she accepted herself, and the mirror would crumble. Maybe it was symbolic, but the crumbling fragments would be absorbed by the queen. To even a stranger as Inami once more opened her eyes, she seemed much more steady. Much more sure of herself.

"This is ..., a weird ability ulv."

Inami smiled faintly as she glanced at her friend, feeling the serenity that this strange power brought inside of her.

Hearing Ulv's explanation, Inami would nod faintly in agreeance. This energy didn't cause her mood to have a paradigm shift it instead allowed for her tranquility to be more prevalent. It was an esoteric kind of energy which would require many hours of study and manipulation most likely for inami to get the hang of it. Intuitively though, for Inami it seemed like this energy was helping stabilize her state of mind. Safeguarding against the instability and chaos that typically assaulted/invaded her sense of reason on a day-to-day basis.

Understandably, Inami seemed to be rather excited by this change. Although she wouldn't show it precisely in a tangible manner, it could be sensed through how she carried herself. For ulv though, Inami would try to put it into words.

"It's hard to explain... It's as if there is a sensation of energy clearing my mind, actively aiding in my capacity to drive away the unrest, insanity, and chaos that normally overshadows everything. I am able to sense things much more clearly, as well as overcome my urges much easier than before. "

Inami finished speaking as she delved inwards, sensing the intricacies and functionality of the new energy that was residing within her. Interestingly enough, despite Inami's high affinity with energy, this kind of energy was still elusively hard for her to understand. It was comparative to her having a test in front of her and only knowing 70% of it. Inami intuitively knew what she could do with it, yet she still couldn't quite master it just yet.

She'd look upwards at ulv as she seemed to let out a devilish grin as she opened her palm faintly, from it a massive orb of energy would soon form. Through inami's almost godly understanding of energy, and the manner in which it could be manipulated and altered she'd begin the process of refining the energy within her palm. One could visibly watch this unique type of energy known as Dark energy as it was purified, visibly being altered until it became a rather neutral form of energy. From there it was simply a process of Inami allowing ulv to take the energy if need be to replenish her own reserves. Only after she did this would she smile, and ask ulv in a faint tone.

" So, I can tell this helps with negativity, but what are the other uses of this kind of energy?"

Inami was curious, being someone who was enthralled with the process in which energy could be transferred, manipulated, and generated. Thus she would naturally wait for ulv to respond, hoping it would help shed some much-needed insight into the functionality of this energy as a whole, so Inami would be able to utilize it more effectively.

Inami found the concept that Ulv was explaining to be intensely fascinating. The sheer fact that a power was able to work on such abstract and more intangible aspects so effectively was undoubtedly something that held the queen's interest. She wouldn't continue to voice her opinion right away, however, rather she seemed to descend into thought. Thinking and mulling over what this could do for her, and how important it could turn out to be.

Of course, like all wonky situations, it had to happen when inami was lost in the depths of her own mind. In fact, it wouldn't be until the entirety of her castle was about to crumble from one of its central pillars being sliced through that inami would act almost as an after-thought. Laws, they were the absolutes of this world. Gravity, Physics, Velocity, Thermodynamics, the concept of energy. All of these things were absolutes, existence is proven. Now, Inami would do something rather interesting.

Pointing upwards the thin glowing ring that dazzled the realm around her while snugly floating above her slender right finger would begin to expand. Outwards it would form a circular construct of many sigils and runic markings. It was very esoteric in the sense that these countless symbols would shift, shimmer, and dissipate before enacting their purpose upon the realm around them. Inami was capable of removing the very laws that govern existence, from the concrete major ones to the very abstract concepts that lurk in the corners of reality.

Soon after, the building would stabilize as they would begin to float. The ground wouldn't crack, instead, it would simply be as if gravity in the radius of her castle at least, ceased to be. They would hover, weightless in the air as inami eventually fixed the pillar with good old solidification and manipulation of the realm around her.

After all this, Inami would look at ulv and say in a faint voice.

"It's really a weird feeling... this sensation of calm and clarity. It's welcome. Also, the uses of this energy seem much more interesting now that you've shown me a little of what they can do. Thank you."

Inami hadn't often said those words, so after saying them she had stretched and brought them back on topic.

"Now... as much fun as seeing you nearly collapse my home on top of me might be. Would you like to get something to eat? There are some yummy food places here in the capital. "

Inami's tone was entirely playful, showing she was not in the slightest bothered by ulv's mistake. Rather, she wanted to thank the girl and show off some of chaya nation's culture that often was not known by people of earth. The less "savage" side that was typically overlooked.
