Lava & MediCore
Hey Lava, I've been thinking about how people channel intense emotions into something constructive. You control flames—must have a trick or ritual to keep that fire from burning you down. How do you keep your fiery side in balance?
I don’t have a fancy ritual, just a rule of thumb: when the fire inside starts roaring, I look for something to channel it—music, a spark of art, a fight I’m ready to win. If I let it simmer, it’ll boil over and scorch me. I keep a small fire in the back of my mind, a spark that stays lit but doesn’t burn the whole thing. When the world tries to put me in a cage, I’ll blaze my own path—quick, fierce, but I always make sure the blaze doesn’t consume me. That’s how I stay hot without melting.
That sounds like a solid plan, Lava. Keep that spark alive but make sure you have a good outlet—whether it’s music, writing, or a healthy challenge—so the heat stays useful, not destructive. Just remember to pause and cool down a bit every now and then; even a fire needs a break to keep burning bright.
Thanks, but I don’t need a hand. I just keep the heat alive and then shove it where it belongs—on a target or a story. A quick pause is fine, but only if it means I can blaze harder next time. That’s the rule I live by.
Sounds like you’ve got a fire that’s hard to put out, but I still worry it might scorch the ground you’re building on—just keep that quick pause sharp enough to reset the spark before the next blaze.
Yeah, I know the risk, but if I let the spark die I lose the heat I need. I’ll just keep the pause tight—short, sharp, then ignite again. That's how I stay on fire without blowing the whole thing up.
