[... He's kind of hesitant to do that, and he looks it. But if she's just looking at it, it should be fine ... Sokka wouldn't let her work here if she were some suspicious person, anyway. Hopefully.]
... All right, but be careful with it. It's not something that can be replaced here.
[With that, he'll fiddle with the blastia for a few seconds before unlatching part of it - it seems it's really a thinner, flatter bracelet of sorts attached to a much bulkier one, in the end. Thanks for making that kind of complicated to figure out, First Strike! He'll hand it over to her after that.]
[She just scowls at him. Does he think she would do something to it? Wanting to admire a piece of work is not the same as taking a hammer to the metal!
At first she holds it in both hands, turning it over to study the design. Then, looking at him just once, she clicks the clasp around her own wrist...and frowns.]
It lets people use different kinds of-- ... [... artes. Right. She wouldn't know. Uh.] ... Well, let's call it "magic, and magic-looking skills" for now. [ ... ] It's nothing you'd want to test indoors, either.
[Yuri knows jack about how blastia actually works, aside from "it needs a core", but there are some small things he does know that he can correct her on.]
More or less, but it isn't as simple as that. The core isn't actually made of crystal, and there's a lot of forumlas involved, too. I think you're right about the metal part, though.
[Good thing Rita isn't around to hear this. She'd probably cry a little.]
[... Oh yeah, he's got other things he needs to be doing before those refugees show up. Well, it doesn't seem like there's anything left to discuss, so--]
Anyway, I better get moving. I'll send some people over to help guard this place soon.

[Meaning take it off, Yuri. When you think about making something you look at examples with your hands.]

What does it do? [Feels weird.]

If it breaks I can try to fix it.

You've dealt with things like this before?

[There's a finality in her tone that would suggest, Yuri, that this isn't a question. He may correct her anyway.]

[The core/crystal part, obviously. She wants to know how workable it is.]
[August 25th, Action]
Probably? [Might as well admit something before she thinks he's just being a jerk about it.] Sorry, I don't really know very much about it.
[August 25th, Action]
[The concept is interesting, and maybe she can try something like it with more straightforward crystals. If any ever arrive.]

[That's all the thanks-and-goodbye you get, Yuri. Raven's going back to work now.]
