[She doesn't stop petting him and her voice remains gentle but she's straight forward and to the point. She can't help it. It's just how she is.]
That's good.
I- knew many people with abilities. I... remember their training programs. Ice magic was very different from others. There are exercises I can teach you. [It isn't a lot but it's something.]
[It sounds like whatever Jason and Dodger have is complicated and honestly... Enis doesn't really want to get in the middle of that. She doesn't do well when emotions are involved.]
I doubt what Dodger has showed you is very helpful.
[Fire and ice are literally opposites and as much as opposites attract, in the end, one will always extinguish the other.]
It'll just be a few things. If you think you know enough. [Enis doesn't like pushing people.] In return, I want more of this. [Not him being sad but cuddles... she likes cuddles. Which Jason better take to his grave or Enis will hunt him down. She's scarier than her size suggests.]
[Good, he doesn't want to deal with it right now either.]
I think... the main thing he did was help me... figure out how to control it a bit.
[He's honestly kinda proud where it's been going. He looks at her with a smile. Her offer of teaching him something with the payment of cuddles? what more could he ask for?]
I don't know enough... but I know more than Dodger thinks I do.
[He could show her, but he's comfy and kinda nervous about hurting her, he'd gotten stronger and a bit more dangerous but his emotions are a mess right now and if he slips up something could happen.]
[Her fingers continue to gently stroke Jason's hair. It isn't much but she hopes that it offers him some amount of comfort. At the very least, he hasn't started crying again.
She's fairly sure that's a good sign.]
He doesn't think you know much but that's just as well. I don't think you should tell Dodger everything. [Not right away. It's always better to have an ace of your own when handling Dodger and Enis doesn't want to see Jason get hurt. He is like a child in so many ways and it makes her way to protect him or teach him how to protect himself.]
Next time. [Enis offers.] There is no rush.
To be a skilled fighter, you need to be detached when fighting. Emotions can control you and yes, emotions are strong but only to a point. It is weaker in the long run. There are better ways to fight.
[Which is also why Enis avoids them at all costs.]
[He was calm at her touch, but the tears have been close to bursting this entire time. He can't help but agree with her at least, he doesn't have much but at least he can be surprising.]
I... don't tell him everything.
[He tells him almost everything but sometimes it's irrelevant and just him rambling.]
Okay, I sometimes get detached when fighting, I've hurt people I didn't even realize I did it.
[He moves a bit and as he looks at his fingers, visible chunks of ice growing on them. He's gotten a bit colder in Enis's lap as well.]
Mines mostly on focas... but when I get to many emotions it can get a bit dicy, it really fucks me up.
I've done that too. I never remember when I hurt someone.
[There is a deep note of sadness in her voice that she quickly disregards.]
What does it do?
[Jason might notice that Enis isn't reacting to the cold. Her skin is still warm despite where he's been touching, as if her body is making up the difference in temperatures to keep her healthy.]
No. It will if you keep dropping the temperature but my body will automatically make up for it and keep my internal temperature steady.
[She glances down at him and offers a wistful smile.]
You two aren't the only one with oddities.
[Only that Enis had been born completely human. This is just another result of her fathers work.] So don't worry about me. Within reason. I will be fine. And I will know if it becomes dangerous. [She'll feel it.]
We can test it but I still need a thermometer. I can take a sample of my blood and you can freeze it. We'll measure the temperature of the blood and of your hand. Once the blood drops below 57 degrees (f) then the person is beyond saving.
Fine. [she doesn't sound happy about getting up.] The store should be open.
[She tries to lift her torso but his pushed down to the bed thanks to Jason's weight. Her bright vibrant blue yes looked down at him quizzically.] I think you need to get up first or we post pone this to tomorrow when I can pick up the stuff on the way home from work.
[Enis shifts and reaches for her black boots. She foregoes putting on socks but does grab a wallet, holding it in her palm since the sweater like dress she's currently wearing has no pockets.]
We'll pass it. I can point it out to you on the way.
Rhys is my boss. he's a good guy. [She's leaving out the part where he kind of looks a little like Dodger because Enis rather not admit that to herself. She likes Rhys and she doesn't really like Dodger. He's okay and necessary but like... liking someone is new and uncomfortable.
Enis glances down at his feet and then grabs a pair of boots from someone else's things.]
Put these on. We'll be back quickly but I'm not carrying you if you step on glass or something.
[With that decided, Enis wants for him to put on the shoes and leads the way towards the shops.]
You have a dumb name. [Enis has to stop herself from adding to the childishness of that statement.] I like him. Try to be nice. [Rhys is... something to her. It's hard to know what it is and Enis really doesn't want to think about it or hear Rhys get insulted.]
Fine then hurry.
[Goodness he's like a child.]
I don't know when the store closes.
[When they enter the shops Enis points over to a smaller store front.] That's where I work but we're going in here. [Aka, the Sphere's version of a Walgreens.]
My names not dumb, it's normal and boring. [He sticks his tongue out at her as they continue forward, he has the shoes on but he's clunking around them a bit more annoying then he needed to be.
When she mentions she likes him he snickers.]
Oooh do you like him? like you got a crush on him~
[He seems in better spirits picking some fun himself, he was indeed like a child. He looks over the storefront and looks around.]

He really enjoyed her playing with his hair and he would be back for more as he lets out a small hum.]
We do... more than work together. [He lets out a small, defeated laugh to it.]
we Did do more then that...
[He doesn't know where he stands with the man at the moment taking a deep breath.]
I've gotten pretty good with my ice actually. I can make it pretty sharp to.
[Jason's grown since Dodger last saw him, so his information needed to be updated.]

Only if you want.
[The price might be cuddles...]
no subject
[He lets out a small sigh shaking his head at the subject. He wants to move on.]
That sounds cool I'm down... I've only ever done what Dodger showed me and what I can figure out on my own... I've gotten pretty good at it I think.
[A price he's willing to pay, even if she doesn't teach him anything cool.]

It's just hard to control. [He looks at the frost on his hand./small>]
Sometimes I can't control it and I end up hurting myself with it.
[He looks at her he's a bit surprised she still felt warm under him, only Dodger's ever been warm when he gets to cold. ]
Does it not bother you?[The rooms dropped a few degrees without him intending to.]
no subject

no subject
He just stares at her blankly. The smile was nice but he's trying to wrap his mind around her explanation, he doesn't understand, he was simple man.]
So... cool it just... makes you warm, when... your cold.
[Oh lord he is trying.]
How long does it take to make it dangerous?
no subject
[It'd take a sudden flash of temperature and a lot of specifics but she doesn't want to concern him with the details.]
We can test it if you want.
Get a thermometer or something and try and kill me.
[She's totally cool with this plan.]
no subject
[He was curious if he could get that cold but he wasn't sure if that was
good idea. He really doesn't wanna hurt her.]
I wanna try it... practice or something but I don't want to accidentally kill you. can't we use somethin' else?
no subject
Fine.
[She'd hoped but oh well...]
We can test it but I still need a thermometer. I can take a sample of my blood and you can freeze it. We'll measure the temperature of the blood and of your hand. Once the blood drops below 57 degrees (f) then the person is beyond saving.

Sounds kinda cool, where do we find a thermometer?
[He can give people frostbite so it seems promising. This all seemed kinda fun and a pretty good distraction.]
no subject
[Even a thermometer used when someone's sick will do the trick though Enis might spend the extra money for something more elaborate.]
Do you want to stop being... on me and do this right now?
no subject
I guess so sure. [It was very obvious he wasn't happy about getting up.]
It sounds kinda cool, I wanna see what happens.
no subject
Fine. [she doesn't sound happy about getting up.] The store should be open.
[She tries to lift her torso but his pushed down to the bed thanks to Jason's weight. Her bright vibrant blue yes looked down at him quizzically.] I think you need to get up first or we post pone this to tomorrow when I can pick up the stuff on the way home from work.
no subject
Nah I don't wanna wait... I'm curious.
[He hasn't been to the store here yet so it's a nice adventure to distract him from all of the emotions he's feeling.]
where do you work?
no subject
[Enis shifts and reaches for her black boots. She foregoes putting on socks but does grab a wallet, holding it in her palm since the sweater like dress she's currently wearing has no pockets.]
We'll pass it. I can point it out to you on the way.
[She nods towards the dorm room door.]
Let's go.
no subject
Who's Rhys?
[He hasn't been here long and the time he has, hasn't been very pleasant.]
Sounds good,... I haven't really been around this weird joint, mostly been in my room.
no subject
Enis glances down at his feet and then grabs a pair of boots from someone else's things.]

no subject
He's got a dumb name...
[He looks at the boots taking them and tossing them down to step inside if he liked them, he'd probably keep them.]
They're to big, and I ain't gonna step on somethin.
no subject
Fine then hurry.
[Goodness he's like a child.]
I don't know when the store closes.
