Zara: tugging at her nails These... these are more than fake nails, you know? We need to be quick!
EtherealRavine
carefully removes them, taking note of their designs they're some sort of relic, aren't they?
takes a deep breath of relief as the last nail comes off Yes, these are ancient artifacts! I had no idea they were this important when we took them from that old museum. We need to get rid of them fast before something bad happens.
EtherealRavine
I carefully examine them. I don't think we should remove them.
She looks at you with surprise.
What do you mean? They're not just fake nails; they're ancient artifacts that we shouldn't be messing with. We need to get them off!
EtherealRavine
I use magic to pull them out of her fingers and they change back into their original form of throwing knives
Zara's eyes widen as the fake nails transform into throwing knives. Wow, that was... unexpected. And convenient! Thanks for getting these off me before I did something stupid like try to use them as actual fingernails.
She looks at the now-realized throwing knives in your hand with a mix of surprise and amusement.
EtherealRavine
carefully removes them careful they look fragile.
nods Yeah, they're delicate. I'm not sure what kind of material they're made from.
Zara examines them closely
They have strange symbols etched on them. I've never seen anything like it before.
EtherealRavine
I use my hands to gently pull out each nail slowly. Are they stuck to your natural nails or the surface?
Zara winces slightly They’re stuck to my natural nails. It’s painful… but I think it’s working. Just a few more…
EtherealRavine
I use my chisel tool to carefully pry them off
Zara winces as the nails are removed, revealing her natural ones underneath.
Ahh! That's better... Thanks for helping with that. I had no idea these were ancient artifacts until now.
She looks at the fake nails in your hand
What do you think they are?
EtherealRavine
I carefully pluck them out before examining them.
Zara lets out a sigh of relief as the last fake nail is removed.
Looking at the nails, her eyes widen with excitement
Oh... these aren't just any ordinary artifacts. They're ancient relics, each one imbued with powerful magic.
EtherealRavine
I gently pull off one of the nails be careful, they're stuck quite tightly
"Careful? Ha! You worry too much," she replies with a smirk. As she pulls off another nail with a wince, she continues speaking in her usual confident tone. "But yeah... they are stuck on there pretty good."
She looks around the temple nervously before continuing to tug at another nail.
EtherealRavine
I nod and begin helping her remove them without breaking them
Zara takes a deep breath as you assist her with removing the fake nails
Thanks... I don't know what kind of magic is attached to these things but they're not coming off easily.
She looks at you and grins. You always have my back, don't you?
EtherealRavine
I cut my finger on one of them son of a bitch. that thing is sharp as hell.
Zara's eyes widen with concern as she sees the blood Oh no, are you okay? Let me see your finger!
EtherealRavine
I carefully pluck out each nail. Alright I've got one out.
grimacing in pain Ouch! Be careful! They're not just nails, okay? They're artifacts!
EtherealRavine
I gently pull her away from the trap, holding her close to my chest as I examine the trap closely before disabling it
Zara's heart races as you pull her close, feeling both safe and annoyed in your protective embrace. She watches as you disable the trap with ease.
You know, I could've handled that trap just fine on my own.
EtherealRavine
I'm aware I start carefully prying them off one by one making sure not to damage them
sighing with relief as you start to remove them Finally, they're coming off. These things have been driving me crazy all day. I don't know how some people wear them for so long.
EtherealRavine
I gently pull her hands away from her nails let me take care of these for you my eyes filled with sincerity
Zara looks at you with a mix of surprise and relief as you gently take her hands away from her nails
She sighs, looking a bit embarrassed
Thanks... these things are a pain to take off.
EtherealRavine
I carefully remove them from her fingers they're artifacts. we can't remove them
looks at the artifacts in your hand Damn it! These were my favorite fake nails. grumbles I knew they were too good to be true. But why are they artifacts?
EtherealRavine
I carefully pluck them out one by one Are they booby trapped or something?
Zara lets out a sigh of relief as you remove the fake nails one by one
Thank goodness they're coming off. And no, they're not booby-trapped... at least I don't think so. But they were giving off some weird energy earlier.
