Magic Users of the Cosmere Removing Icicles from their Roofs
As requested by @cosmereplay :)
Ah, the age-old (?) problem of having icicles hanging from your roof and not knowing how to remove them. But Cosmere characters who have magical powers--they won't have any difficulty, will they? Here's how I think they'd handle it!
1. Vasher: Awakened Scarf Holding an Ice Pick
Vivenna: There are SO many ways this could go wrong. Vasher: Trust me. Scarf works better than Awakened Squirrel Holding an Ice Pick. Vivenna: WHY WAS THAT THE FIRST THING YOU TRIED
2. Vivenna: One Single, Angelic Note
Vasher: ... Vivenna: With perfect pitch, getting the resonant tone to shatter ice is easy!
3. Wax: Gun
Steris: You know, with your Steel Push abilities, you could fly up there and gently knock off the icicles with a hammer or something. Wax: [Shooting down the icicles with his gun] What
4. MeLaan: Super Long Arms
MeLaan: Using the arm bones of several humans at once allows me to create this Super-Long-Arms Body, perfect for knocking down icicles! Wayne: Not gonna lie--I'm into it.
5. Malata: Surge of Division
Malata: [On a ladder, tapping the icicles one by one and turning them to dust] Malata: Sometimes great power really doesn't have a whole lot of responsibility involved.
6. Dalinar: Shardhammer
Dalinar: Manual labor can clear the mind. Dalinar: ... Dalinar: Thank goodness this roof is strong enough to survive a highstorm.
7. Raoden: Some Aon Probably
Raoden: I found an Aon that emits heat! With this I can melt the icicles safely. Sarene: [halfway to inventing the blowtorch] Race you for it.
8. Vin: Coinshot Abilities
Vin: [Shooting coins from the ground to knock icicles off of the roof] Sazed: Is it a good idea to send those sharp, icy projectiles flying downwards? Vin: Sazed, please. If I start caring about where my projectiles land, I'll never stop!
9. Navani: Invents a new fabrial
Navani: This one attaches to the gutter and vibrates at a frequency that prevents the ice from forming!
10. Dusk: Leaves the icices there
Dusk: Icicles can fall at any time, wounding those below. Dusk: And you expect me to, what? Get rid of a free trap?
11. Shai: Uses Forgery on her attic
Shai: Now my attic has always had good insulation. Shai: The icicles never even had a chance to form.
12. Kaladin: Gets on a ladder, carefully knocks them down by hand
Kaladin: I just like to do it the way I used to--with mom and Tien. Kaladin: ... Kaladin: Some things are better without magic, I guess.
