Finally, it seemed she reached one of her goals. Her stinger tipped tail no longer seemed stiff. In fact, she could move it with quite the flexibility of any of her arms. Picking up the branch, she tossed it once more to confirm. Wonderful. Now if she had need, she could at least physically handle and grapple something without the need of utilizing her magic - another thing she wanted to practice the strength of.

But that was for later.

For the first time since learning Mana Vision and Mana Sense, she studied her own mana. It looked fairly similar to how it had before, but distinctly clearer. It was the Rutherford model again to be sure, but it was impossible to tell just how exactly it worked. The shapes acted as though they were in an infinite loop, turning into different shapes infinitely. It made her brain hurt just slightly to think about, but those squares [i]were[/i] there. She just needed to find a way to manipulate them.

The system informed her that the Mana Orb lacked an element, was of her own mana, and...incomplete? Incomplete? What did...did that mean that the 'Mana Orb' spell was an incomplete version of a larger, more powerful version? Which meant if she could complete it in some manner, she could turn it into a more powerful, perfect 'Mana Orb'? Or was it talking about its lack of an element?

Her first thought turned to the Models' lack of a nucleus. That would certainly make any chemical composition incomplete, but how to add a Nucleus? Her eyes followed one of the squares as it reached the edge of its orbit, watching it as it shifted hues. Well...science sometimes required, a certain measure of recklessness.

Focusing her attention and mana on one of the outermost squares, she attempted to direct it towards the center of the model to act as its nucleus.
