Heavy Meta (No SV, You Are The Eldritch Horror!)(RECRUITING RE-OPENED)

Reader mode
Look
All of us can agree it is enjoyable to let Darius put Remi and Albert through the wringer.
I hope @silentspirals Lets me do the Same to Elizabeth.
Girl needs Some muscles on her bones.
And suffering, Lets not forget suffering.
In other news Darius has destilled te swear and tears of Remi and Albert into a wine.
It is quite heavenly.

That's gonna be quite the contest of wills. A Badass Grandpa vs a Reality-Warping Brat. Nick will be trying his best to shirk physical training. And considering he can bend space, time, gravity, and all physical matter around him to his demand, he's got quite a few tricks he can use.

A minor example. Making him run laps? He can reorient his gravity side-ways, and bend space such that as he falls side-ways, he's also going around the track in a subjective straight-line.

This just mean that Darius needs to get creative in his training.
That and he has a good motivator.
If you don't train, you'll never be the guy.
You need to push yourself to grow, to be greater, to become the guy.
If you don't grow your body you'll never be the guy.
That's the carrot.
He does not have much of a stick though, but Nick seems like a kid that wil do things that help his goal of being the guy.

Thing is, while he is quite suggestible, he's not completely so. He has his own ideas and what not about what the ideal The Guy is. Being physically tough is not neccessarily part of that. He favors cleverness more, so schemes to get out of working out is more in line with The Guy than actually working out.

He is quite willing to push himself to grow, but if you don't want a struggle you gotta convince him it's worth it. That said, the struggle would STILL be pushing him to grow. As Darius gets more creative, Nick has to get more creative too, exploring new uses and possibilities of his power.

Albert can do all of this, but he's too polite to like, dump his exhasution on Darius.
 
I just write said:
Actually, the magic most likely useful for dumping one's exhaustion on someone else is from the Discworld, and is used by the local Witches.

I wasn't refering to dumping exhaustion, I was talking about "bend[ing] space, time, gravity, and all physical matter around him to his demand." He said Albert could do all of that.

Also, Questions from earlier
Is Copy-Pasting faster than designing and making new things?

You said I could change Gravity in a second, but how much can I change? Could I invert gravity for everything within my range in that second? Relatedly, can I only control direction and nullification, or can I turn up gravity, and if so how far?

Can I make stuff like Carbon Nanotubes and Graphene and other stuff? The talk about Nuclear Diamonds made me consider how many neat things we have that the main thing keeping us from abusing them is not having enough. And I got a guy who can make tons of shit.

How hard is it to make a Person? You said I could make just about anything, but if I wanted it to DO stuff it would take extra time, basically programming them. I'm curious how much time would be needed to basically make a Person, or atleast a not-dumb-as-rocks NPC.

Gravity: Direction and nullification only.

Carbon Nanotubes: Yeah, alright. Compared to some of the other stuff Bound in general can pull out of their ass, it's positively tame.

Making People: ...This is tricky. The primary limiter of how fast you can make things is detail, rather than volume. You would basically have to program in an extremely complex neural network, then either allow them to mature, or forcibly wire them up with even more complexity to bypass this issue. You'll probably need to pick up either significant Liquid Arts mastery or a specialized spark of Mad Genius to be able to do this in anything remotely resembling a reasonable timeframe.

Gravity: Alright, and how about part two of that question? Could I effect everything in range in that second? Or can I only do so much at once?

CNT: Sweet. My mega structures can be even more mega now without having to dip into reality fuckery.

People: alright, how about AI? Not turing complete and probably with relatively minimal learning, but could fight sorta well? Like NPCs in a game?

Copy-pasting: You skipped this question again.

Grav: Limited to adjusting an area about the size of your 3rd person view (though it can be anywhere in your editor range)

AI: Doable; dumb programs that are semi-functional in a given task can be pretty easily achieved, though it might take some time.

Copy Paste: Object suitable for copy-paste must not have any dimension longer than 3.4 meters.
 
And now for Mina immediately discovering an answer to her question and facepalming hugely.

ETA: no, not that answer LOL

@Lizard Knight Timelines, man. You should still be doing the training, Mina and Nick are hours behind you guys.

I question his ability to move after a few mouth fulls. Gold is heavy as shit.

Wealth lies where Darius and Mina are.

Wait, what?

*no reply from Ess'Vee*

Remi's Wealth Lust (Not an actual ability) activates!

He begins to search through the house for Darius and Mina.

Timelines, you are currently suffering through Darius's Training from our POV. But whatever, I Just Write is fine with it. However, if Mina isn't super slow, the portal would have closed, and all you'd find is a closet. Unless you go to the basement (which has no entrance), move the throne (that has no hinge or anything) and drop down a 2000 foot hole (that has no ladder or elevator).

He is a tiny ball of joy and mad science, he cares none for your logic.

@I just write how hard is it to get an ability to speak to animals aslong as they are sentient, even giving them minor sapience while talking (subtle meta, because people would probably think Darius crazy)
Again I think 'rotten tree deep roots' was a fun concept but I think talking to animals would be better.
If only so Darius can be a fucked up Disney prince.
However, that is next downtime.
Because, I need more pets!

I want my floof hammer space child Chester.
I did not know the variants were a thing but red and black Chester is rad.
 
I somewhat want either Mina, Darius, or Typhon to try to leave or wander off on their own, and end up getting lost in the immense maze of Moria he has built over the last 12 subjective hours.

Typhon is busy being your inhouse-pupper-architect and solving your massive deficient in dragon statues.
Darius is busy being Schrödingers Darius in case I can get Chester.
If I can Darius wil be Darius again with floof ball hammerspace in his hands.
