You're Tied Together With a Smile But You're Coming Undone (open)
Cait sat on the shore of the lake and looked out across the water. The temperature reached seventy and the sun was bright. Light danced on the water. Normally Cait would be out on the water, but today she was content to sit on a rock on the shore. Plus she was still adjusting to the change in her powers. She still had hydrokinesis, but it wasn't as strong as it had been. She still had the ability to turn into water. It was weird and she had only tried using it once since she returned to Xavier's.

She knew the other students didn't blame her for what she had done as Famine, but it didn't mean she felt any less guilty about it. She had destroyed numerous crops and villages around the world. People would go without food and some without homes because of her.

Tomorrow she'd go home to Nova Roma with her parents. Some time away and some TLC from Mom and Dad would go a long way. She wasn't sure what Corey was going to do, but she hoped he would go home too. Driving him crazy would make things seem more normal. Though she wasn't sure how normal things would be able to get, especially with her blue hair. She had Jenny try to change it back, but it didn't work.

Cait picked up a stone and skipped it out across the water.

	“Sure, any place in particular you want to go for that because I don’t think they would like that so close to the manor after they just rebuilt this part.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Down by the lake?" Cait suggested. It was her favorite place after all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-19 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	“That sounds good,” he said, “Just say when and we can head down there.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait smiled. "When." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-19 11:52 pm UTC (link)
	Aaron was laughing as he opened his car door to get out. “I’ve been working on a neat trick that you might like that would work well with this.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-19 11:54 pm UTC (link)
	Cait climbed out. "Oh? I look forward to seeing it." She walked around the Jeep to stand next to him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“Well the lake is this way,” Aaron says as he starts walking towards the lake. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-20 12:13 am UTC (link)
	Cait smiled. "So it is. I can sense the water. I could probably find it in total darkness." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-20 12:18 am UTC (link)
	“That’s a pretty neat trick,” he says as their walking, “Can sort of do the with electricity but it’s more like feeling wind, I know the direction and how strong but I can pin point the source .” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-20 12:22 am UTC (link)
	"I can sense larger bodies of water when I'm close enough," she said. They made their way toward the lake. Cait was watching him and not where she was going when she tripped on an exposed root. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-20 12:26 am UTC (link)
	Aaron noticed Cait trip and quickly moved to try to catch her. “Woo, you okay there Cait,” Aaron said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-20 12:34 am UTC (link)
	Cait grabbed onto him while she regained her balance. "Yeah. Gotta watch out for those roots that jump out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-20 12:39 am UTC (link)
	“I can light things up for us a bit,” he said. Moving his left hand away from them as he charged it up so that some electricity followed out a bit from his hand, it didn’t brighten things too much but it would be easier to see where they’re going. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-20 12:43 am UTC (link)
	It did allow Cait to see him better. She held on to him and stared. Then when she realized what she was doing, she blushed and quickly let go. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-20 12:46 am UTC (link)
	Aaron gave Cait a smile as she let go before turning around. “I think we’re almost at the lake.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm sorry," she said and looked away. "We are. Just past those trees." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
