The 10th Burst of Flame

[beforetheflame]

[It seemed pretty fitting that Lea got firepowers, not at all surprising. One would often find Lea smirking as snapped his fingers like a match. Lighting up a fire with his fingers then snapping it off. But with great powers come great responsibility. Unfortunately Lea wasn’t one for much care of “responsibility” and cared more about oooo let’s see what else we can set on fire!

If it wasn’t for knowing that blowing up things might be a bit dangerous, who knows what havoc might happen. This is why one shouldn’t let Lea be unconscious while he still had his powers. You see he might start dreaming about using his powers or cooking up marshmallows, and the room could be set on fire.

… Oh wait-Isn’t that what’s happening to his room right now? Fancy that. Too bad Lea was snoring in his bed while a circle of flames was dancing around his bed.

The cambot is playing this, well at least it’s trying to help Lea wake up. Which succeeded, and Lea cried out a yelp.]

WHA-HOW-OH NOT AGAIN!!

[As he tried desperately to try and calm the flames.]

[This seems to be a thing with him. That does nothing to make Namine less worried.]

Lea!? Are you okay?

[beforetheflame]

I'm alright, but my room isn't!

[colorbymemory]

[Too bad these powers don't always come with an automatic 'off' switch. Fortunately, Lea's last experience with powers like this means Namine has had a bucket of water close by all week. She's now lugging it towards the elevator.]

I'll be there in a minute.

[beforetheflame]

A-Alright! But be careful when you get here!

[colorbymemory]

I will.

[True to her word, she does keep a reasonable distance from the fire as she tries to douse it. Unfortunately, it looks like more than a bucket's worth is needed. She has to refill it in the bathroom a few times before the worst of the flames are gone.]

[beforetheflame]

[He was so thankful she came to help clear out the fire at least. He helped put out the flames as best as he can. As soon as they did. Lea gave a sigh of relief, and leaned against the wall to catch his breathe.]

Thanks Namine.

[colorbymemory]

You're welcome.

[She's leaning against the wall to catch her breath, too. That was a close one.]

[beforetheflame]

[He looked over with a bit of a grin.]

Guess that got outta control huh?

[colorbymemory]

[She smiles back.]

I guess so. You're not hurt?

[beforetheflame]

[Putting his hand behind is neck.]

Nah, I’m fine. Could use a cup of water to rehydrate myself from all this though.

[Gives a little smirk.]

[colorbymemory]

[She manages a small smile in return.]

That might be a good idea, but we'll need to go the cafeteria.

[beforetheflame]

[Gives a nod. Already ahead of ya.]

Right, c’mon let’s go get a drink then.

[colorbymemory]

Right.

[She looks down at her dress, arms, and hands, which are not exactly the cleanest after that bit of firefighting.]

I guess we can clean up later.

[beforetheflame]

[Giving a shrug, Lea chuckled.]

Yea, we can do that at any time though. Drink first, shower later.

[colorbymemory]

Laundry, too.

[Though, as with a lot of things, the laundry facilities here leave something to be desired.]
