"Explain."

*Far from and expert on how things like technique structure were used in actual Jutsu and the like, Maku was feeling confident enough in herself to help troubleshoot it. She knew... Maybe five actual jutsu, so she wasn't exactly a pillar wisdom compared to *Anyone* Else.*

*Tucking her legs underneath herself, Maku tossed the wooden block she was using as a temporary notepad back into the toolbox. Comfortable, she just sighed and smiled.*

"Are we talking literal structure? Like something you're making, like a clone or some kind of earth release?"
Dora
**"It's a form of Earth release - a literal structure"**
*He explained to her as he also tucked his legs below himself. He looked at the sand, poking his finger into the sand in order to draw something that she herself could envision as he worked it out*

**"It's a dome - simple as that. . .Well, not as simple as that. It's made of sand, held together in layers by chakra."**
*He explained*
**"The issue I'm having is it keeps on imploding on itself - when I make it it forms, then a portion of it pulls inwards, collapses onto me, which isnt very comfortable"**
*He said to her - and of course, it explained the sand that was scattered over all of his body. He had managed to get to. . .Most of it*
Jason
*Maku looked at the little diagram he was drawing, nodding along as she tried to understand how it worked. Creating a structure around himself, as he tried to keep it from collapsing in on itself- and onto him.*

"Move it in layers. Like shingles on a roof. Try to use layers to try and keep it stable, instead of a single... Mound?"

*She shrugged, drawing some lines between across his sand dome drawing, shrugging a bit.*

"Each disc supports the one on top, so the dome might be easier to control?"
Dora
*He eyed the diagram she made. . .It was the spitting image of what the technique looked like - though her description fit something with abit more thickness to it. Like. . .Sandstone or something. He said as much*
**"Looks like sandstone when you put it like that"**
*He he said, eyeing the diagram a bit. Each layer supporting the other eh? But-*
**"But - I already do layers"**
*He said, drawing a replica of his diagram near hers, only with the exact amount of layers in his technique. He had chosen layers for the exact reason that it was abit easier and of course supported more. Yes it was pretty complicated - wasn't at its rank for anything, but if it worked out it would be hella defensive*
**"Maybe its the way I build the layers - any ideas as to how to make them support more and not collapse?"**
*He asked*
Jason
*Biting her lip, Maku just looked at the diagrams they were working at, shaking her head a bit. It was dificult trying to lay out plans that... Didn't quite make sense to her, considering how little she knew about Jutsu. Maybe...*

"Why not do something where you have the Layers taper off. Each row of sand stacks on top of the other, and have it so the weight is distributed outside. That way if a layer collapses, it'll fall outside."
