"Helloooo! You've reached Jaune Arc! If I'm not answering, it means I'm probably off somewhere fighting monsters or... doing something really awesome like saving a cat, or the president's son! You know how it is, a leader's schedule can be really hectic nowadays, ha ha! Just kidding, I'm probably in school, but I'd totally do those things if I ha-- [BEEP]"

what fire

[ Plausible deniability!! ]

[metalist]

[ Corroborating evidence time! Just because he may have deleted their chat history doesn't mean Pyrrha's done the same... ]

[beaconed]

you didn't delete it!!

also i think your device is broken

[metalist]

I never agreed to delete it!

JAUNE
THE FIRE
Please

[beaconed]

its fine!!
it just started raining
what a day
anyway do you think it could be my semblance

[metalist]

please, come home

[ She doesn't want him starting anymore fires! Also, rain means he'll be damp, slick with moisture, hair plastered to his forehead and rainwater pooling in his clavicle -- FOCUS.

Stupid picture. Stupid, sexy boyfriend. ]

I'm not sure, honestly
I don't think so
But we can do some tests if you want

[beaconed]

pyrrha

Sometimes, her life is really hard. ]

I'm fine, Jaune
It's sweet of you to be concerned but I don't think you'll set me on fire

do you know how humans only use a fraction of the strength we're capable of because using more would grievously injure our bodies?
I imagine it's simila
*similar
subconsciously, you know what's safe and what isn't

i really had my money on option a

[beaconed]

yes
yes i did know that
because
im a human

[ Obviously he only just learned that cool fact. Augh, she's so smart and incredible!!! AND NOW HE CAN THINK ABOUT THAT WITHOUT SETTING HER ON FIRE ]

so how do we test it

S O O N

[metalist]

[ Of course, she doesn’t buy his artifice, but endures it with good natured indulgence, smiling fondly down at her CereVice. ]

I have a few ideas

Do you remember how you felt when your aura manifested?
Try to find that feeling again
Keep it in the back of your mind, tucked clsose but away, safe and accessible
*close

[beaconed]

whats the other way

[ Jaune Arc only knows how to keep his feelings in the front of his mind. ]

[metalist]

[ "The other way" - likely, it involves Pyrrha hurling objects at Jaune in an attempt to see if the defensive properties of his aura triggers his new possible semblance. Needless to say, this method is a lot more flawed in execution. ]

uh
Try it this way first, okay
For me?

[beaconed]

how do i know if im doing it right :(
ugh its probably not a semblance
im the worst

[metalist]

[ Pyrrha, who had said at the beginning that it probably wasn't his semblance, is sympathetic nonetheless. ]

No, you're not!
I know how it feels to get your hopes up but it'll happen, I promise
You'll find your semblance

Why don't you come home
Your clothes are probably soaked by now
You don't want to catch cold

[ SHE'S SUBTLE :D ]

[beaconed]

[ Typing... ]

[ Typing... ]

[ Typing... ]

[ Typing... ]

[ Typing... ]

[ NOT SO SUBTLE. ]

[metalist]

[ Ah, he's such an adorable idiot. Pyrrha's pleased and immediately hurtles herself off the couch to change into something a little more enticing. Somehow, she suspects the ratty borrowed hoodie she's been lounging around in isn't especially alluring. ]

See you in a minute ♥
