April Catchall - Open and Closed Prompts
Who: Nadine and Various - open prompts in post, closed prompts in comments
When: April
Where: All over Cadens, Nadine's Domain
What: Catch all for the month
Warnings: Will add as/if needed
Open Prompts
1 - Horizon
Nadine's domain - a quaint little slice of a small New Hampshire town - has been gloomy and stormy for far too long. It wasn't something she intended, it had simply happened. There's a sort of shabbiness that's crept in as well, the buildings taking on a worn and ill-maintained look. She supposes it's due to her recent moods, too much grief and upset spilling out into her mental realm.
Of course, she hasn't been here in a good few weeks, either. Maybe that's part of it. Either way, it needs fixing. First, the black storm clouds need to go. And the snow. It's spring, there should be greenery and blue skies with puffy clouds and birds singing. Easily enough achieved.
And maybe...it's time to change things up a little. Not much, she likes this little town square with its white wooden church and park with skeletal carousel, the stores, the red schoolhouse, the rolling farmland beyond that gives way to woods as her domain flows into the others around it. But it's been essentially the same since she made it.
Walking along the four streets that make up the square, she inspects the various storefronts. Some of these can be changed. Maybe...a café or something. And a little library. Or a hole in the wall movie theater...
Sometimes she thinks she's not creative enough to fully take advantage of her domain.
2 - Cadens
At this point, Nadine is a lot more familiar with the streets of Cadens - at least the ones she frequents. It's a huge city, and there's plenty of it she's yet to explore. But she's growing comfortable here, and starting to think of it as home. Odd as that seems.
It also means her mind is more prone to wander as she's going about her business. She's heading back home after doing her shopping, arms full of paper bags and boxes. She has a new pamphlet of recipes to work on, and a project for her anatomy class to work on. It's going to be a busy evening, but she likes keeping busy. Especially when it's a productive busy. She's enjoying her work, and her classes. And she thinks she might be good at all this. It had started as just something to do, but now...there could be a real career in it all. And why not? She'd thought on more than one occasion that she'd probably make a good nurse. Here, now, why can't she be a healer?
Lost in thoughts of potential futures, Nadine isn't paying as much attention as she should be. Too late she notices the group of teenagers, running and laughing and paying even less attention than her. Trying to move out of their path, she missteps on the curb and drops her armful of goods.
Little wooden boxes go tumbling. Bags spill open. Dried plants and packets of scales and small bones and stranger things spill out on the sidewalk and into the street. Nadine lets out a mild curse, sighs heavily, and crouches to try and gather up all of her things....

[Anything else, go for it! Nadine's all over the shopping district and where the Academy is. If you'd like a specific starter in comments, hit me up!]

Goro is difficult to miss, to put it lightly.
The fire is proper fire, putting out heat and sparks as it dances. Nadine chuckles a little, ready to move her hand if Garrus is about to get burned.
"It's magic. There's....some kind of power or force or energy that we can tap into and manipulate. You could probably learn, too."
As far as she's seen, any of them summoned here can tap into the energy of the Singularity to practice magic. There's no reason he couldn't, too, if he wanted to try and study just how it works.

He's only slightly kidding, there. His eyes won't actually pop out, thankfully. But he's never actually seen a being with limbs like that. Not even the yahg.
Thankfully, talons are basically fingernails. No feeling in it. The fire is definitely hot. Definitely real. It's also absolutely baffling, and for a second, he thinks of a certain salarian who would have a field day trying to figure this out.
"We... have something like this, in Citadel Space." He lowers his hand, folding his arms. "Biotics. People who can manipulate physics, dark energy, with their minds. I was never one of them..."
Which gives him a few doubts as to whether or not he'd be able to do something like that here.
