To see my fire! It's Sunday and I still have a use of it left this week.

[He's too excited to be bothered that Allen forgot.]

[lefthandpath]

Oh, right, of course. And I still have a use of my Innocence left.

[aono]

One? When did you use it the other time?

[lefthandpath]

Ah, I... had a bit of a spar with Xie Lian.

[aono]

...

[...]

Well. At least he wouldn't get hurt by it, since he's a god and all.

[lefthandpath]

That was part of the thought, yes. The other party being that I thought he'd like an actual opponent rather than practice dummies. And I needed some warm up--it's been a few weeks since I've been able to use my Innocence.

[aono]

He's really good at that kinda thing too, so he'll be a good sparring partner.

[He didn't just end up fucking shredded after all.]

I'd offer to help, but you know. The demon thing. Plus 'he' really wants to fight you and that's a bad idea.

[lefthandpath]

I could take him.

[I AIN'T SCARED OF YOUR DEMON HALF.]

[aono]

You headbutted him when he was rude to you.

[lefthandpath]

Right. Because he was rude and deserved it.

[aono]

And what are you going to do if he's rude again? Headbutt him again?

[lefthandpath]

Yes.

[no regrats.]

[aono]

You do remember that he murdered someone, right?

[lefthandpath]

I do. I haven't forgotten.

But that would be the boring thing to do with someone like me.

[aono]

It'd be boring to just kill?

[lefthandpath]

That's how I think he'd see it. That's how the Noah saw it, too.

Anyway, you worry too much. Don't you want to show me...?

[aono]

[Weirdo demons and weirdo Noah... but at the reminder, Rin nods and holds his hands out in front of him. A moment later, a small blue fireball pops into existence in his hands. ]

Check it out!

[lefthandpath]

[oh. that's actually very pretty??? dangerous, but pretty.]

And it's hot like normal fire?

[holding his right hand near so he can see if he can feel the heat.]

[aono]

Even hotter! But only when I make it hotter.

[For Allen, it will feel pleasantly warm, like being wrapped in a blanket.]

Go on, touch it. It won't burn you.

[lefthandpath]

[there's only a hint of skepticism because Fire Not Hot is not a life lesson, but he trusts Rin's word enough that he does reach out to touch the flames with his right hand.]

[aono]

[The fire easily spreads out to cover Allen's hand as soon as he touches it, flickering like it would if it were burning a fuel source. Except it's not actually burning Allen at all. It feels warm, but in a comfortable way, like if Allen were wrapped in a fuzzy blanket while sitting in front of a fireplace on a cold evening.]

See? Pretty cool, huh?
