He looked at her and smiled. "Of course!" He said, then he stopped, but when he did all the juggling balls fell to the ground but he quickly retrieved them, then he handed two to Lex. "Can you juggle two? All you do is really just throw them into the air, but so it could fall into your other hand, it's simple with two, but three is harder, but the better you get the more, ball thingy's you can juggle." He said and with that he swiftly pulled out five more juggling balls, so he had six, and he juggled them, but they fell to the ground after a bit.

"I'm still learning to do six." He said smiling, again retrieving the balls. When he was standing again, he motion for her to try with the two balls he had given her.

Lex grinned like a little girl when he gave her the two juggling balls. She watched him do fairly well with six, and momentarily pondered if she'd ever be able to do that. Of course she could. It'd just take some time. She listened to him talk, and then began to toss and catch the balls from hand to hand. She was doing fairly well, since hand-eye coordination wasn't particularily difficult for her. As a matter of fact, she was looking at Trephas as she attempted to juggle, not dropping anything. "Am I doing it right?" she asked, hands not missing a beat, though when she finished talking, her tongue made a slight appearance in the corner of her mouth, showing her concentration. When she realized that she was doing, her tongue disappeared back in her mouth, and she grinned.

Trephas grinned. She was doing very well starting off, he remembered when he first tried. His parents had gotten him a juggling kit for his 5th birthday, and since then he has been practicing, but when he first tried, he was terrible, the balls always falling from his hands, but now he did wonderfully. "Yes your doing it quite right... Your telekinesis isn't helping you is it?" He asked playfully accusing her, grinning.

Then he picked one of the six balls in his hand and he tossed it to Lex while she juggled. "Think fast!" He said, seeing if she would catch it, and to see if she would continue.

She shook her head, still not missing a beat. "Nope, I'm pretty sure it'd only get in the way." she said easily, though then he threw the new ball at her, both of the balls she'd just tossed in the air froze in place, and she caught the new one in her hand, allowing the other two balls to continue on their way, continuing to juggle, making sure that no ball stayed in her hands for long.

She grinned up at Trephas sheepishly. "My bad." she chuckled lightly, the joyous sound not disturbing her movement at all. As she continued to juggle, she missed one, and it tumbled to the ground. That distracted her, and the result was a ball on the head, and the other fell at her feet as well. She burst out laughing. "My uncle used to juggle, but apparently it's not genetic." she sat on the ground, giving up for the moment, rubbing the back of her head cheerfully. "Oww."she remarked, as equallly cheerful.

Trephas chuckled as he watched. Her telekinesis keeping the two still while the new ball got in, then they fell and he was smiling and there was once more a hint of cheerfulness, but like always, it was soon hidden by a boring gaze, but he was still happy. "Your lucky someone else in your family juggles, no one in my family juggles, except... Jerith, he does a bit of juggling." He said. "Jerith is another cousin of mine, he lives so far away, it's sort of sad."

He retrieved the balls Lex had dropped and he stuffed five in the pouch he had, then he held three, but he didn't do anything with them. He plomped down on the ground next to Lex. "Your very good at juggling."

She grinned at him as he sat down beside her. "I'm not that good!" she exclaimed, gently slugging him in the shoulder. Gently, as in her fist barely connected. Then she wrapped her arms around him and hugged him again, resting her chin on his shoulder. "You really are a good friend. You know that?" she asked, not moving from her hugging position as she looked up at the side of his face.

"OK, fine, your not the best, but your better then when I first started." He said, again memory's flooded his mind when he first started juggling. Then she hugged him, and he smiled, and his eyes shined happily for a moment. He lifted his arm and wrapped around Lex's shoulder. "Nope, never knew it. Though, you say it, I'll believe it." He said, smiling, and he looked over at Lex. "Did you know, that you are also a very good friend?" He asked remembering the dragon attack.

She relaxed into him when his arm came around her, uttering a contented, "mmm." sound. She continued to rest her chin on his shoulder, closing her eyes as her breathing slowed. He made her feel protected, and she wasn't even sure he knew it.

"Did you know, that you are also a very good friend?"

She opened her eyes for a moment to look at him, and smiled contentedly, "You say it, I'll believe it." she closed her eyes again, the smile still on her face.

He felt her relax into him, and he closed his eyes for a bit. He never knew this would happen. He felt happy with her, and he seemed cheery whenever she comes around, even if they had spoken about her past, but he felt like that hadn't happened. He seemed to care for her, almost as much as he cares about his family.

His eyes were still closed when he heard running feet coming toward, but they did snapped open, and he looked around, and what he saw startled him, he gasped slightly. What was she doing here? he thought. He stroked Lex's hair, and then stood.

Tear, she ran as hard as she could towards Trephas, and when she reached him, she flung her arms around him, and sobbed into his shoulder. She was so happy to see her twin, and now she could tell him what happened, but then she wondered who the other girl was.

Trephas whispered in Tear's ear trying to comfort her, as he always did that when she was sad, but he was still shocked to find his sister here.

She had felt the change in him, and assumed whoever was coming, Trephas knew. So when he stroked her hair, then stood, she'd already let go of him and allowed him to stand, following in the standing only a second after. As she watched the exchange, she suddenly felt awkard. Whoever this girl was, she was very close to Trephas. And Lex didn't particularily like watching closeness of any kind.

She pulled her jacket closer around her, then stuck her cold hands in her pockets to keep them warm, averting her eyes to the snow, focus on making a sculpture out of the snow. The flakes rose in clumps, and were compacted by her mind, making them stay in their position.
