[ He makes a sound between a cough and a snort. ] Sure- put two elements together, make an effect.

So- [ give him a moment... ] Put fire and water together, get steam? And if you want it scalding levels, go for something like this.

[ Tapping at the modified fire on the lava rune. ]

[inkedspell]

[She nods in approval.] And remember that in basic mixing of runes, especially for elementals, you can have various results depending on which rune you give the priority position.

You want lava? The focus is on the rock, not the fire. You want earthquakes? Same thing. You want steam? Priority is the water for the vapors. Remember which element should be the focus of the inscription and which ones should be the support runes and you'll have less crazy outcomes.

[strongroots]

[ Huh. Now he has to think about that for a second. ]

Lightning first before rock, and you get rocks flying everywhere?

[ Does Robby kinda want to see that? He kinda wants to see that. ]

[inkedspell]

No. You get magnets.

[Which is cool, or at least she thinks it is.]

You want flying rocks, you gotta throw some air into that.

[strongroots]

[ ...okay, magnets can be cool.

But now this is leading him down a silly thought: ] And if I threw in some heat and cold, would that give me a tornado?

[inkedspell]

Heat and cold will get you a fog, but focus on the wind and you'll be trying to keep your feet on the ground. Wouldn't recommend without the right equipment.

[She had made that mistake as a child. Thankfully she'd been outside while doing it.]

[strongroots]

Okay, but that doesn't sound like the worst mistake to make. [ A mess? Yes. A potential fun mess? Yes, by the tone of Robby's voice.

He's looking at the runes for the elements, wondering. ]

So if I wanted to make an incense burner--like a tube to put the sticks in that'll hold and burn them, that wouldn't need a big flame. [ Not even a flame. ] Would I use the symbol and write it with a weakened ink, and that'd be enough? It'd need air vents for letting out the smoke, but I was thinking you could make a twisting top that closes them when you want it shut off.

Would the ink be safe in something like that?

[ Since it's written with magic? Or would it suffer under the heat and trapped space? ]
