Baru: ~turns her head to Mercuria, grinning widely but also twitching a little~

"Easy. This thing runs on the... the most b-e-a-utiful tautological logic I have ever encountered. The reason I made it work is because I made it work. Pretty simple, isn't it? If you want to fuel it with your willpower, all you have to doooooo is fuel it with your willpower."

~she absent-mindedly rubs the spot on her neck where she injected herself earlier~

Mercuria: ...

In other words, you injected yourself with a particularly potent stimulant.

Baru: "Oh, no, that was just to find the solution. A Cognatogen to make me think better. It made me realize we were approaching this from the wrong angle. You know what we did wrong? We tried. How are you supposed to fuel something with your confidence, determination and... willpower..."

~she clenches her fist~

"...if you don't even have enough of these to convince yourself that what you are doing would actually work? You do not try. You just do it. Failure only happens if you believe that it could."

Mercuria: Platitudes aside, I do think I grasp your point. The intent instead of just the will alone, that's definitely not something I thought I would see in this lifetime.

—Takanuva approaches the group—

@Baru: Mind if I give a try?

—He reaches out and places his hand on the crystal, listening to Baru's words. It isn't about imagining it working, it's about willing it to work. Takanuva thinks of what drives him most: his duty to Mata Nui, to his friends, of his friendship with Jaller, of his destiny to bring the Matoran back to Metru Nui, and to save Mata Nui from death. He focuses all that and more in his mind and channels his will into his power, trying to make the crystal accept his will and his power. He even begins glowing slightly, as he's unconsciously manifesting his Toa Power into the crystal. Hopefully, the crystal will react—

-the crystal does not accept your power because it IS power.-

-regardless it does continue to glow as a sign of recognizing taka’s will-

Roy: @Baru "Whoa...should definitely write it down missy. Best motivational speech I've ever heard."

"I wanna give those SOB mechs payback for screwing with us!" *Pounds fist to open palm.*

Phillip:-cringes at Baru and decides to see if she can get it to work without the drugs-

-she touches it again-

Mr. Crystal, I don't know if you can understand me but I need you to help me get to the Moon King. He's the only other Dragon I know of. I need to see him.

Baru: "Oh that's... that's nice of you. Yeah. Happens sometimes that my muscles collectively take a nap when it runs out. So good idea. Thanks."

"Anyway what are we gonna do now that I've found a way to turn that crystal on?"

-Suzu carries a wiggling Shindan in, and tries to see if a robot makes the crystal work-

-because phillip said she wanted something from the crystal, and her utter devotion to finding another dragon, the power being generated by the crystal starts spiking dramatically.-

-Phillip you are now being shown a vision, or perhaps having information planted in your mind that shows you where you must go to find the moon king.-

-Suzu is still holding Shindan to the crystal to see if it works with robots-

-kinda hard to tell at the moment considering that the crystal is still reacting to phillip and glowing super bright-

Chief mechanic: (@Suzu) you know, maybe actually telling people what they're supposed to do instead of just making them touch the crystal with no info would help.

Suzu: I am trying to see if the Kami here will make it work, or if the magic won't trigger since it is made of metal.
