Amber tongue sticks out, licking of the bit of ice cream that was melting off the sides of her ice cream cone before the cheery red melt reaches her fingers and make them sticky. She then savored the taste of chilly blood and strawberries before she turned to her friend Joseph, whom was walking right by her side in the warm afternoon at Oceania Park. The two had just recently got ice cream from a nearby parlor and thought it best to enjoy their treat with a walk around the park.

"Mhmm! So what do you think of your ice cream Joe?" questioned Amber as she walked, hopeful that Joe was enjoying his ice cream flavor as much as she was.

It had been quite a while since Joe had done anything like this, he felt a bit awkward, but also really nice. More so nice. Joe hand't had a lot of experience with ice cream flavours so he always went with the safest pick, which was vanilla. He licked around the ice cream slowly turning it to avoid any of the sweet stuff falling on his hands. He licked surprisingly eagerly since it was so nice and sweet.

He got a caught up in licking for a moment and then looked to Amber."O-oh... umm... i really like it... so sweet, i mean i haven't had this in a while... its good to be... well for a lack of better words, out and about again..".

"Yeah, same! I don't think we have done anything like this together for awhile now. Well I am glad that your really liking your ice cream! Though... vanilla is a bit plain isn't? Next time we come here together you should get something wild like the triple chocolate delight or mint and coco!" suggested Amber, offering Joe a smile as she goes back to licking her ice cream. Mid-lick, a thought came to her and she looked to Joe.

"Hey so... you can control blood to an extent right? Do you know if you could control the frozen blood in my ice cream? I know its not that much but I was just wondering if its something you could do."

Joe nodded in agreement and smiled faintly for a moment at her plain flavor comment. "....yea its been a while since I've done anything... uhh for that matter. Oh... the reason i choose vanilla... well to be honest i uhh... i haven't had ice cream that many times.. i just go with the safest bet... maybe ill try somethings else but... i'd be a waste if i didn't really like it, i hate wasting things". He wiped his mouth with the napkin he had in his other hand while he listened to her thoughts about his blood.

"Oh... I have tried that on my own before... well not exactly the same thing but.... i think it would work.... so long as my blood is mixed in.. but yes I think I can.." he nodded meekly.

"Ahhh! Okey then. Thats pretty neat that you can do that with your powers." responded Amber with a nod. "Well if we do this ice cream thing more often then prehaps you could expand your tastes? I mean... vanillia can get pretty boring after awhile."

Amber takes another bite of her ice cream, or at least what remained of it. She let the piece of ice cream melt in her mouth before swallowing the syrupy cream and licking her lips of any bits that still remained. She looks to back to pipes up another question.

"Say, have you gotten to meet my cousin Rei? He is a demon like me like but he is blue and looks kind of like an octopus person with black antlers. Or at least... he is usually blue... anyway, just wondering if you two meet was all."

Joe nods, he always got excited when explaining something especially his own powers."Mhmm.... I've been doing many things with my powers.... tests and such.. mostly focusing on... replicating smaller objects... its quite hard to do though... lots of focus...". He went on and thought about this whole ice cream thing, the thought of doing it again never crossed his mind however he did like the idea of making it a regular thing, he had been isolated for quite sometime, not that he minded being alone rather he found he enjoyed being in Amber's company in more ways then one."Y-yea.... i think.... i think i'd like that, i mean... if you don't mind of course" he said licking his frozen treat avoiding eye contact as he did.

He shook his head "Hm... sounds interesting... i can't say i have meet him... but... uhmm.. you could introduce me?" he said in a little bit of a awkward tone, he wasn't very social so he never knew what he said was normal of him to say.

"Of course! I am totally okey with going out for ice cream with my friends. And its good that your testing your abilities. Ever since the changes with Dalia she is trying all sorts of things just so that she can see what she can and can not do. As for me well... not sure actually. I will have to ask my mom about what the limits are of my strength draining." remarked Amber, now curious of her own abilities. She knew that her powers were not a danger to anyone but she always limited herself when it came to her little... cravings...

"And sure thing! We can see about you and Rei meeting one another one day." said Amber, bringing the discussion back to having Joe meet her cousin Rei. She then scratched her as she remembered Rei's feelings about humans, wondering if that would be a possible issue. Nevertheless, she thinks the two of them should at least meet each other. If Rei has any issues, she will be sure that he behaves himself. Not that she thinks there will be an issue... Rei has been better about that thing of his recently.

"Well actually... nah. Should be fine! Anyway, could all meet together by the community center in the park. Its good place to hang out outside of school." suggested Amber. She couldn't help but notice that Joe was staring ahead on the path in front of him instead of looking to her. She at first thought he staring at something in front of them but when she tried to look out in front of her... there wasn't really anything that stood out to her.

"Ummm... do you see something Joseph?" inquired Amber, tilt her head at Joe for a moment, then looking out to the path in front of them.

"Mmm... I guess i'm just not used to doing normal stuff... well social stuff that is... but i don't mind doing stuff with you... you understand how I feel" he said with a shrug while listing on about the power talk."I should probably... talk to her... but i'm not sure if she would be upset I was.... doing other stuff for so long" he sighed a bit and shifted his attention to the comment about her abilities, Joe never really asked about what she could do. "... No to be a bother... but how does such a thing work? The strength draining ... If you don't mind me asking o-of course".

"Not sure.... but I guess I can check it out with... you guys... I've never been there before though..." he said feeling a bit odd making plans with friends something he never could see him self doing a few years a go, it made him think a little on how the island had changed him.

Joe jumped a little when she asked if he saw something. "O-oh no.. nothing I was just lost in though... about lots of stuff i guess... I always think a lot when i'm around you for some reason or another... I guess I even think about why that is" he did a tiny shrug.

"Nothing? Oh okey then." shugged Amber, not really sure what that was all about. Maybe he was just a little tired and dismissed it as such.

"Anyway, you haven't been tot he community center? Well its actually here in the park. I can show you the building when we walk by it. Honestly, I think Dalia would be trilled to see you again... she been a little mopey so seeing a familiar face would do her some good really." assured Amber.

"Oh well... its kinda of simple, I all need is to hold touch someone directly... this." Amber then demonstrates by placing her free hand reaches to Joe's arm, gently clasping her fingers around whatever bare skin she can touch.

"Then I just... think about it... and..." Amber closes her eyes, as if in concentration. But before anything could happen she quickly lets go and yanks back her arm back to her side, opening her mouth into a grin as her eyes blink open.

"Just start draining away and we would both be feeling warm and fuzzy inside. But... I always make sure to ask for permission first because... well I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable."
