Early May

Cor was just drifting thru the area, trying to get a better sense of this part of the city. It's not as well-populated, but that is a good thing. The Coliseum seems to keep drawing crowds, and Cor doesn't want to risk people getting hurt in case something goes belly-up during his magic practice.

So, here he is, wandering around and trying to find a good spot to carve out a few minutes of earth magic self-training. But then his ears pick up said noises from...that lot nearby? Curious, he turns the corner, wanting to see who else is trying out their earth magic here...

It's nothing at all like his control over Pyro, but with practice and some assistance from Albedo he has managed to accomplish the adjustment in thinking required to not struggle overly against the shift in element.

When Cor approaches he'll find the pale, redheaded young man in the middle of pulling up several slender pillars of earth from the ground, all of them fairly uniform in height. Whether it be necessary or not he's using small gestures of his hands to guide his attention and with a sweep of his arm he sends the whole row toppling like dominoes.

The one at the end of the row scatters into a fan of dirt across the ground, and then Diluc catches sight of the older man. He brushes his bright bangs out of his face and levels his gaze at Cor, loosely folding his arms.

"I'm almost done, if you're looking for somewhere to practice."

Cor notices how slender and uniform those columns seem to be. Here is someone who seems to have a damn good grasp of earth magic. He looks mildly impressed as Diluc topples them over with decent control.

"No need to rush on my account. You seem to have a better grasp on your earth magic than I currently do, and I would rather have you finish your practice round first."

[phoenixblessed]

"No, it's all right."

Diluc shakes his head slightly and with another small, sweeping gesture of one hand he settles the piles of earth and rock he had made by collapsing the columns into something smooth and flat. It doesn't feel like much, really... the manipulation of shape and form doesn't seem too difficult once you have a grasp of the fundamentals.

"Go ahead, I can think of little else I could do right now anyway." He was almost finished, but mostly he just doesn't want to be observed. "Besides, it sounds like you need the time more than I do."
