[ Don't worry, Wangji, she's got this. Cal is the one who makes things break and she's the one who puts them back together again.
Usually. As you can see, she can break stuff too, though she's much better at making sure she only breaks what she's trying to break.
She wrinkles her nose at the stench of old, stale air and the cloud of dust and dirt kicked up by her spell, peering into the newly-revealed tunnel. It's dark and dank, the walls and floor roughhewn, but even with her natural night vision she only sees it stretch on before them, empty. Or mostly empty, except for more small milk snakes slithering along the ground. ]
Oh? Do you need the light to see?
[ She shoots Wangji a Look, raising her eyebrows knowingly. The answer is yes, obviously, and she certainly could call light... in fact, it's a simple spell she's done a thousand times.
But that had sounded an awful lot like a command rather than a request, and so she'd rather make him work for it a little. Just to see what will happen. ]
