A great place to run

She smirked, feeling she was getting closer to discovering the truth. "Oh you don't? Then what is it you fear? Don't try to hide it, it's quite evident that something out here is bothering you. If you were a dog, your hackles would be raised." She added cooly. "You never did tell us your ability...." This afterthought made her pause. Should she, in fact, be worried? She'd have to worry about that later because if she didn't stop irking him, his powers would show themselves and that may not necessarily be a good thing.

Leaning back, hiding behind his hair, and listening to this, Aike took on a grin at Nicole's comment about the dog. He did just bear his teeth, after all.... Probably a Lycanthrope of some sort. He cleared his throat and stared at Stephen till he finished speaking.

Aike stood strait, scratched his chin in fake thought, and pointed in Stephen's direction. "Have you ever just had one of those days, Stephen, where you need scratched behind the ears? Or tell me, have you ever looked longingly at a fire hydrant, but walked on by because people would stare at you funny? I bet you must feel at home here in this forest."

((Sorry I haven't posted... I just got back.))
Nicole immediately felt ashamed of her actions. She had tried to exploit his power by inappropriate, maybe even dangerous means. She ran after him. "Look, Stephen, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be cruel and you're right, people shouldn't just be telling others what their powers are on a whim. It's okay for you to not reveal your abilities, but I think I have a right to know if they're dangerous." Her face was sincere, yet worried. "Back there, you did bear your teeth and I feel it was a result of the agitation caused to you. Please, I know well enough that if you daon't say what's bothering you, it only wells up inside, causing chaos." She said this as soothingly as possible, not wanting him to become further enraged.

((It's a forum RPG. I'm not expecting anything instant ;) ))
Aike leans back against the tree he was previously at. Pocketing his left hand, and playing with his finger nails on his right hand, he mutters to himself. "I dunno. A little chaos is fun, once in a while." He opens and closes his hand once, making a ball of fire apear and disapear. He glances off elsewhere, twards the woods. Staring at it a moment, he glances from the woods to the sky to the fire spirit next to his head, his eyes resting on the ground infront of him in thought.

((I 'master' gonna post or what?))
