well, yes, actually. vax immediately pulls his own lisa frank knife out to match. meteion may notice he looks much more feathery today now that he's in his armor! ]
We match. [ heh! ] Know how to use that thing, Meteion? It's dangerous.
[ feathers!! his do not rustle, except for maybe in a little bit of wind. his wings have been nerfed. but they are there!! ]
... [ thinking ] 's good to have something to defend yourself with. But, far as the guys who showed up said, we can defend ourselves with our colors, too. You seem more like the magic type to me.
[ a beat. ] But, if you want to learn how to throw that, I can teach you.
[ cute. he will take the lisa frank knife! and then turn, moving to look for a target and eventually settling on a tree some distance away. he glances back to meteion and raises an eyebrow, a nonverbal "watch this"... and then with a snap of his wrist, the knife sails through the air and lands in the tree trunk with a resounding thunk. ]
[ so yeah!! a whole lot. he goes to fetch the dagger, pulling it out and giving it a little spin in his hand; there's obvious affection in his voice, the playfully warm tone of someone who tends to big brother, as he kneels down and holds the knife out, handle to her. ]
Something like this is really dangerous, Meteion. It's good to defend yourself, but it takes a lot of practice to be able to use them safely. If you want to learn - even just to use it - then promise me you'll be careful, yeah?
[ her gaze darts down to the knife, gingerly taking hold of the handle. actions very careful to avoid hurting the man at all costs. she peers at the knife a bit more before looking back to Vax and offering a smile. ]
I'll be careful! But... I think I'll be okay. If something goes wrong... I'll just run away!
[ she really is saying she'll be fine without a means to defend herself. it's fine! ]

We can defend... with our powers? How so? [ a bird head tilt, confused and curious. ] Mine is.. primarily sunrise!
[ pikagasp ] You throw these? [ TEACH BABY? ]
no subject
Dunno yet. When I figure out how, though, we'll figure it out. For now, I can just make water.
[ which doesn't really help him that much. lisa frank knives, however, help a lot! he holds out his hand for the knife. ] Let me see?
no subject
Oh... Well, until then, I'll be sure to do my best and.. help everyone else! [ pew pew, sunrise power!! ]
Okay! [ with no fear at all, she easily hands the lisa frank knife over. have at it! ]
