Hacking #06: Electricity Training (Closed)

[technologic]

Characters: April and Zett!
Setting: Floor 38.
Format: Whichever, though starting with brackets.
Summary: One lightning user teaches the other ways in which their powers can be used, besides the usual zapping things.

[The lounge floor had quickly become one of the floors April tended to relax on, along with the meadow floor, if only because it had couches to sprawl out on. Which is what April is doing today, though today she has a piece of metal in her hands which she's twisting into different shapes with electricity.

Though she turns her attention away from that when she hears someone else walking around, and she gives a small wave when she sees who it is.]

Afternoon, Zett!

[Blink and she smiles sheepishly.] Ehe, whoops. But still, at least you got it. And once you get the hang of bending metal in your hands, you could try bending metal that's at a distance.

[scentofmakai]

Thanks, teacher!

[Time to try, try again.]

[technologic]

[Go, go! Though April blinks at what he calls her.] ... 'Teacher'?

[scentofmakai]

Well, this is teaching, right?

[technologic]

W-well, yeah... I've, uh, just never been called teacher before...

[scentofmakai]

Now you have, teacher.

[technologic]

Ah, yeah, that's true... [She gives a faint, sheepish laugh.] First time for everything, I guess.

[scentofmakai]

You're pretty good at it for a first-timer.

[technologic]

Wha- R-really?

[scentofmakai]

Really. Would I lie?

[technologic]

... I, um, don't know. Would you? [She's still wary and distrustful of you, Zett.]

[scentofmakai]

Good point. But no, I wouldn't lie about stuff like that.

[technologic]

Mm... Okay. Then I just hope that I keep being good at it, and that I can get better.

[scentofmakai]

Bet you you will.

[technologic]

[Blink. And then she smiles sheepishly.] T-thanks, Zett. I'm glad to hear that.

[scentofmakai]

No problem!

Should I try again?

[technologic]

Go ahead! Give it as many tries as you want until you're confident you're able to bend it without any problems.

[scentofmakai]

[Attempt number he's losing count goes about the same as the previous try.]

I'm getting the hang of this.

[technologic]

Yeah, you are. It won't be too long until you're able to shatter and warp metal, even from a distance.

[scentofmakai]

Then I'll be unstoppable!

[Joking, really.]

[technologic]

Ehe, only against swords and bullets. But you'll at least be hard, or harder, to fight against.

[scentofmakai]

Thanks, April. I owe you.

[technologic]

You don't owe me anything. If I'm able to help, that's more than enough for me.

[scentofmakai]

It's why you're a nice person.

[technologic]

[Blink. And then she smiles a bit.] You really think so?
