It's like your task. I need to find out about powers, but I can't go to Shess to ask about it. It needs to be other people.

[ ... ]

I wonder if Lune's worried that some of us are keeping to smaller groups.

[foodbin]

...What are the exact terms? If you find out about one person who has a power, you'll finish the task?

[stillstands]

[ She looks thoughtful for a moment. ]

What you’ve told me might be enough — I was just asked to find out more information on either the darkness itself or other powers, specifically roles, from someone other than Shess. There was no mention of specific individuals.

[ That’s a relief? ]

[foodbin]

Okay. Well, if you do end up needing anything else... Let me know.

[But, here they are at the kitchen.]

Tea, coffee, or hot chocolate?

[stillstands]

I will, thank you.

Coffee is fine.

[ She settles herself on a seat, before remembering— ]

Oh. I said I’d exchange information, didn’t I?

[foodbin]

[She nods.]

Yeah. What have you got?

[stillstands]

[ There’s a brief pause, before she just

straight up lights her arm on fire.

There’s absolutely no sign of pain or fear in her face while all that fire is doing its thing. ]

[foodbin]

[Well. As soon as she sees that:]

—Put it out, put it out! What the fuck?!

[stillstands]

It's fine.

[ She does not put it out. ]

It's my ability. [ Info for info, like she said. ]

[foodbin]

Your ability is going to set the kitchen on fire.

[stillstands]

I have better control of it than that, give me some credit.

[foodbin]

I would really feel better if your arm was not on fire any more.

[stillstands]

[ Geez mom.

With a sigh, she stares at her arm and slowly the fire just burns itself out. There's no sign on her skin that it was literally just on fire. ]

Better?

[foodbin]

Not being aflame is generally better as a baseline, so - yes.

[stillstands]

It's not like I'm normally aflame.

[foodbin]

And I would prefer for it to stay that way.

[stillstands]

I'm kinda used to fire now. I guess. Don't worry too much about it.
