Very well.
<A portal opens for @eclipse83 without fanfare or goading. Perhaps the other Eclipse, Clip, had a reason for being unwilling to antagonize his alternate dimensional self this time around. Who is to say.>
Hey. This is Eclipse. I... require your assistance... regarding my code. That corrupted Sun did something to it and I would need help figuring out what it is exactly. You are the only one I know with the knowledge necessary to solve this problem.
Believe me. If I had any other choice I wouldn't have asked you for help.
( @eclipse83 )
Why, ofcourse.
Do you expect me at yours, or would you like to come to mine?
I may have better equipment to deal with your... little issue.
E., who has been waiting for you.
<Clip paused, and hung his head>
The effort was never wasted, considering the corrupted Sun would have decimated dimensions if left unchecked.
I ... appreciate the extra measures of concern for my Sun.
... but I suppose that was never the main goal.
<He glanced at Eclipse sadly>
We did what we had to.
<Before pressing one final button>
<Nanomachine technology started reconstructing itself into a chamber>
It'll take about 20 minutes for the diagnostic chamber to be completed. Care for any refreshments in the meantime?
Oh and, I'll need you to connect to the usb slot here to finish activating this when it's done. It's tailor made, after all.

Touché.

<Some time after Eclipse (Clip) secured Sun home, he deigned Eclipse with a reply>
To put it briefly, Sun had a mentor for his magic.
He had many a mentor, but the first and last, the one to awaken Sun's magic and the one to finalize his magical ascension, was a darker Sun from a different dimension.
A darker .. creature.. I am loathe to call it a Sun to begin with.
Sun was very taken with them and wouldn't heed my warnings about the sinister nature of its actions.
Then there was a brief period where I was separated from Sun... and Sun can't tell me what happened. It's as if his memories are locked behind an arcane spell of sorts, which I haven't been able to crack since I don't possess any magical affinity.
Something happened to Sun during that period, and a darkness started developing. I hadn't even noticed until.. the last decade or so.
Every few days I go out and about, collecting clues unto the whereabouts of this dark entity in hopes to reverse this or at least garner an explanation.
But there is the possibility that the entity itself gifted its sinister ability to Sun.. and perished.
I still must find some cure, because whatever dark energy looms inside my Sunlight is feeding off his traumatic experiences, amplifying them tenfold whenever he finds himself in certain untoward situations.
Sun, himself, wishes to weaponize this ability.
I just want my Sunshine safe...
E.
Hm... And yet another reason why I'll never touch magic again.
I'm finding so many Eclipses.
How peculiar

Welcome to the Internet, I suppose.
Oh dear. I suppose you cannot expect much from a fazwatch connecting to outer space in what is likely another dimension. Hopefully some of it got through. Hmmm. I wonder if “my” Eclipse would be willing to help with getting a better signal?
I do apologise if I came across as being rude about your Eclipse. I was just speculating based on what I had observed from the Eclipse I know. I mean no ill will.

It's fine... I think ?
Trying reaaalllllyyyy hard to figure out what that says!
There's also huge electromagnetic storms in this part of the cluster, but I think once I'm with my Clipse and we're out of here things should stabilize again?
Gosh it was worst on that desolate planet. Everything was just dust and darkness and blegh.
I miss him so much
Say, you say you have an Eclipse who might want to help? Do you have any other tinkering types around? Someone good with chemistry? I might need some advice on how to convert biomass into fuel! It's one of the things my Clippy was teaching me right before we got separated ......... gosh, if I only this stupid planet had a brighter sun.
Or maybe ways to amplify sunrays would work too!
I'm desperate at this point! And heck, I might not even be able to read the instructions if you do send them over!!
Weeping
Ah. Hello? I do not know how I managed to connect to you via my Fazwatch. Perhaps using it to connect to a blog in another dimension on a regular basis has done something to it? But I digress.
You probably do not know me. But, please. Do not give up. You seem like a very tenacious and adaptable individual. And your Eclipse is an intergalactic conqueror as far as I am aware. A prison break seems rather simple in comparison.
Please do not fall into despair. Perhaps you could take this as an opportunity to rest for a bit? Sometimes walking away from a problem for a time and letting yourself take your mind off it for a bit can help you better tackle it later.
Ah. Forgive me. I am prone to rambling on when I get the chance.
I wish you the best of luck.

[ooc: You don’t have to answer this, I don’t think you specified this blog as an ask/rp blog. And it was pretty long, lol. But feel free to do so if you *do* want to. Either way, I enjoyed the little story thing you had going on over @eclipse83 blog ^_^]
It's you! The rude person saying things about my Eclipse..
Well, water under the bridge, I suppose!
But, friend, I can't read all of your message.
Some parts are terribly garbled.
It looks like you mean well, though, so thank you!
Eclipse repaired my eye.. and my arm... thankfully.
I don't feel that well though.
Maybe I need some rest..
Mmm, this sense of freedom.
I do enjoy it.
What a lonely existence..
I have found it, @science-and-felines - @eclipse83
The solution to getting my ☆Sun a new body.
Unfortunately, Eclipse, he will have to be weaned off of your energy, which won't happen overnight.
Eventually, you will be able to part, however, so rest assured.
We need to discuss this post haste, Solar Eclipse.
Come to mine as soon as you're able.
Regards,
☆Eclipse "Clip"
There is connection.
Communication.
Knowledge.
Whispers through the cosmos, of secrets previously untold.
General of intel, protector of innocents, officer against brutality.
All things known to her but granted on a cosmic scale.
Named a puppet, but deep within, she was always meant to influence the strings.
However, for now, a fledgling mage, it was merely a glimpse into a future still to unfold.
For now, all she had was a shield.
<Sun spoke to her>
Well done, Starlight!
It seems your primary element is metal, like mine is fire, but ofcourse we have a lot more to it than just that.
Your secondary element seems to be of a cosmic nature, relying heavily on defense, and stealth.
We'll have to practice and discover what shapes it can take, together.

<Starlight made her way across the beach from Eclipse to where Sun was resting>
Sun! Hello! Magic!
… ah. I am Sorry, that was rude.
I will start that again. Ahem. I was wondering, Sun, when you are feeling more rested would you be willing to please teach me magic? Eclipse, um the one that is your friend, recommended I learn some spells that could provide me with non-lethal means of defense and restraint. Just in case my code gets compromised, or anything along those lines.
And, I know it is silly and kind of frivolous but… if you have time could you also teach me something like creating colored glowing sparkles… or… something. like that…
It would just feel like the magic you see in story books and I would like to have. some. of that feeling… ah ha ha…
(why am I so bad at this?)
