What I have is in my room. If you wish to come with me after we finish our drinks...

[the smirk on his lips is habit. But he's not actually thinking about taking her to his room for the reason he would normally take a hot woman to his room.

No, no, now he's thinking about it. Sorry, Kate]

[killmypatience]

[Mmm-hmmm. Kate is sort of getting that (sense motive 14). But as charmed as she is, she's not that charmed. Yet.

Still, she wasn't lying about helping. She can go to his room but not stay.]

Sure. Sounds good.

[byyourleave]

[he would wait though for another refill, until he had a nice buzz going. It took a lot for Baal to get trashed.]

So how are you doing with your ice princess powers?

[killmypatience]

[Kate gives a small shrug.]

There hasn't been a great deal of improvement, but I'm working on it. Or trying, anyway.

[byyourleave]

Is there anyone here who has a similar gift that can train you?

[killmypatience]

[She pauses before shaking her head.]

Not that I've seen. But I think I might start asking around the Fire and Mind sects, just to see if here's someone who might be able to help.

[byyourleave]

I can ask among those I know. Or perhaps Wynn can point you to a teacher?

[killmypatience]

Maybe. I've ... I've been keeping it to myself for the most part. Some know because they were there, but I want to figure out more first.

[byyourleave]

I know, and I wish I could help but this is not something I know how to do. And I know you value your privacy, but I think it will benefit you in the end.

[killmypatience]

[She nods as she takes another sip of your drink.]

You're probably right. I just wish I knew how to talk about it.

[byyourleave]

"Hello, my name is Kate and I am having an issue with ice powers?" could be a good way to start.

[killmypatience]

[She laughs softly at that.]

Yeah, probably. I'll see when I can catch Sir Hasmed and see what he can offer.

[byyourleave]

And when you learn, I am sure we can find ways to enjoy your powers as well as use them in battle.

[killmypatience]

[Her eyebrows go up a bit at that.]

Enjoy?

[She's curious as to how freezing things can be enjoyable.]

I'm not sure I can be a walking ice cube dispenser.

[byyourleave]

No, Shawn... he has been showing me cartoons. There is a man who can make ice... he makes slides out of them to move through battle.

[killmypatience]

[She squints for a moment, trying to figure out if she can place the cartoon he's referring to (pop culture 11).]

Which cartoon is that?

[Sometimes it's better just to ask.]

[byyourleave]

I believe it was the Men of X? I am not very familiar with American things... or childhood things.

[killmypatience]

[Her eyebrows go up a bit and she laughs, before shaking her head.]

I don't know if I'll be that skilled.

[byyourleave]

Not now, but it is something to strive for. Challenge yourself. [just grins, chuckling as well]

[killmypatience]

[She shakes her head.]

We'll see about getting a handle on the easy stuff first.

[byyourleave]

And then we shall move to the superhero maneuvers and skin tight costumes?

[totally teasing, though he is imagining her in a nice skin tight leather outfit. OH yeah.]

[killmypatience]

[And that earns him a flat look over the top of her drink.]

I never agreed to be a superhero.

[byyourleave]

[he chuckled at that]

I was teasing, Kate. Though you do hold the air of one who can be a hero.

[killmypatience]

[She gives a small shrug.]

I just like doing my job. I try not to think of it as more than that.

[byyourleave]

Yes, well one person's job makes them a hero to another. Even a man at McDonald's giving food to a hungry child can be a hero.
