Camelia frowned a bit when Toast talked about 'missing the show', before outright facepalming when he started firing his gun. Of course, she soon started looking through her fingers. She was partly impressed by the extent of his acrobatic abilities, but also partly mortified by the sheer amount of Hunters she glanced from the weapons being drawn. For crying out loud. After he finished utterly showing off, she gingerly walked back a step, allowing him to pick up his bag. She also listened as Alfyn berated him for firing his weapon in a crowded, Hunter-riddled city.
When Alfyn suggested she demonstrate her abilities, a sly grin crossed her face before she answered. "Well, I don't think I could show everything, namely due to the environment's nature, but let's." She took off her rucksack and depositing it at Toast's feet. "But this time, you're watching my stuff."
After stepping back a bit, she started by grabbing Orion and lifting it from its slot, then putting it on her arm. "I'm what you could coin a shieldmaiden more often than not, usually to serve as a form of tank for those with me. This shield, however - " she switched it to its secondary form " - can fire off a small variety of Dust mixes. Apart from that, it's built like a tank.
Moving on," she continued as she reset the shield and stored it on her back, "Are the actual weapons." She unsheathed both halves of Unity. "I usually either use shield and sword or two swords at once, although I can also wield..." She pressed the two halves side-by-side and their pieces slowly clicked together, forming a rather large sword. "...a big sword..." She let the halves separate again and put them end-to-end, the handle pommels touching. The swords clicked together and turned into a double-bladed sword. Spinning it a bit for effect, she finished with "...or a fancy sword." Finally, she separated the halves again and sheathed them on here back.
"Apart from that, my semblance allows me to manipulate gravity. It has a few different applications, but it allows me to do this." Camelia crouched to the ground, hands on the floor, as if she was getting ready to jump as high as possible. A purple glow surrounded her and not half a second later, as it darkened noticeably, she jumped and floated up.
And up.
And up.
In fact, she let herself float right up to the level of the mountain's summit, then let go briefly to start going back down before reactivating her semblance to stop accelerating. A decent while later, she softly landed back in the spot she'd jumped from, a wide grin gracing her features.
