The next morning you wake up to find your brother gone with a note that he left to run from errands.

"Hmm... sounds like a perfect opportunity to examine those rings from the Mandarin guy", the blonde decided, smiling, as she got dressed, and sat at a desk to have a thorough examination of the devices, their functions, the method to use them, and the technology to make them. 20 (Ef.) in Intuitive Aptitude (Technology) +8 from PCPT to thoroughly understand, like, everything about the Mandarin's rings.

You scan the rings and determine three things.
1: They can return to their weilder at will.
2: They contain the mind of the user so if another wears the rings they will have their mind taken over.
3: Overusing them will turn the user's hands green and scaly.

"Hmmm..." she let out, frowning, as she checked to see if she had the capabilities necessary to modify them so they would not do any of those things. Repeating my stones to check if I'm able to modify them so those three deal-breaking disadvantages are removed, otherwise she will obviously not give them to her beloved brother.

You figure it's possible, but could you do it before Mandarin woke up from however long you knocked him out to call the rings back to him.

"......You know what, nevermind", Lucy decided, using her powers to try and destroy the rings. She was confident she could create considerably better ones anyway. She saw no reason to let him get his hands on them again, given how they were dangerous and only usable by a guy who'd attack a tower full of people with a giant robot without provocation as well as kidnap a young woman who'd never even met him. 18 (Ef) in Technomancy +8 from PCPT, into a 26 stones attempt to try to destroy the rings.

You destroy the rings with ease.

Wiping the dust the rings left behind from her desk, Lucy then proceeded to spend an hour thinking about what kind of rings to make, and possibly reconsidering the purpose of her staff. If she had ten different rings for mutliple magical powers each, then perhaps she should make a more combat-focused, magic enhancing staff instead of yet another spell-based device. She took notes on what kinds of rings she'd like to make, and intended to ask her beloved brother for his suggestions and ideas when he'd return:
Naturally, some of those ideas could be combined together to make room for one or a couple more, if her dear oniisan had good suggestions. Additionally, she could only think of 9 different types at the moment. She'd wait until he was back to ask what he thought, and then she'd decide on the final ideas.

Soon enough he has come back with some groceries.

"Ah, you're back!♥" Lucy said cheerfully as she got up to help him with his bags. "Turns out the rings, while a great inspiration, were pretty bad news. They could have assumed control of someone who puts them on but isn't the Mandarin, and he could call them back to him had he regained consciousness in time, so I destroyed them. Instead, I'm coming up with ideas to make my own rings. Wanna have a look at my ideas so far?" 3 in Strength to help Travis carry his bags.

"Sure thing." He said. "I got a lot of stuff we both like to eat... Unfortunately they don't have any gum powder*." He said.
(Not sure if you ever had or still have it in Canada, but in America I used to love this candy called Bubble Jug until it was discontinued about 15 years ago... It was basically this little jug full of powder you could either poor in your mouth directly, but if you shook the jug it would turn the candy into little pieces of bubblegum. It was so good, and I miss it so much. *grumbles angrily.*)

(OOC: Pretty sure I've seen those at some point in my life, but I have no idea if it's still in stores or not.)
Lucy
"Thank you, oniisan!♥" Lucy said cheerfully. "...Meh, I can probably make some myself anyway, if we really want some", she pointed out, shrugging. "Here... have a look", she said when they were done putting away the food, handing him her list from earlier.

He looked over the designs with interest. "Not bad."

"Still missing ideas for at least one ring, and I could probably stick a couple of those together if necessary, so... do you have any suggestions of your own?" she asked cheerfully.
