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.

	"You have a point," she said. "I would have been killed if not for being able to turn into water. It's still weird. I guess I'll get used to it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“Well I wouldn’t know much about turning to what but I am a living capacitor, so I do know what it’s like to get close to your element,” he said, “and I think if you combined your powers you could do some pretty badass stuff with them.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait looked away. She had done some badass stuff with them. Stuff she was trying to cope with. "I guess. I need more practice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“You probably could make yourself float through the air doing that,” Aaron says, “But I know your still adjusting to everything and maybe practice could help you take your mind off of things.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Maybe," Cait said quietly. "Dinner was a nice distraction. Thank you again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“I’m really glad you had a good time,” he said, “Like I said earlier if you want to do this again let me know.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I do," she said quickly. Was that too eager? "When I return from Nova Roma I'd love to go out again. If you do manage to come to Nova Roma, I will cook dinner for you." They didn't exactly have restaurants in Nova Roma. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“That sounds great,” Aaron says smiling, “If you make dinner I guess I’ve have to make you something afterwards.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You don't have to do that. It would be enough that you visit," Cait said with a smile. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 04:20 am UTC (link)
	“Well I was thinking it would be something after you got back,” he said, “I do have spring break coming up soon so I’m sure I could find a way to come and visit.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh. You know, Corey has a teleporter on his team. Maybe if I offer to make him garum he'll ask her for a favor. Nova Roma is kind of hard to get to." The middle of the Amazon and next to nothing. "But I would really like it if you did visit." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 04:34 am UTC (link)
	“Well, I guess we’ll see what happens,” he said grinning, “But I would definitely like to come for a visit.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'll talk to him," Cait said. "We should probably get back. They'll send out search parties if we don't go back soon. And with all that's happened I don't need a lecture from Uncle Scott." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 04:45 am UTC (link)
	“Yeah we probably should,” he said in agreement, “those lectures aren’t fun at all and we are probably pushing our luck about getting one.” Aaron starts getting himself ready to stand up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-21 04:47 am UTC (link)
	Cait used the tree for support as she climbed to her feet. "Yeah. That's all we need right now. I'm sure Uncle Scott's dying to give someone a lecture these days. He probably has a few all waiting to go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 04:54 am UTC (link)
	“I have no doubt that has a few prewritten lectures for this type of thing,” Aaron says as he gets to his feet, “lets hope we get a back before he decides he needs to give us one.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Knowing him? Yes." She hooked her arm around his. "I am going to miss you while I'm gone," she admitted. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 05:01 am UTC (link)
	Aaron started to walk back up towards the manor with Cait’s arm hooked with his. “I’m going to miss you too when you’re gone.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-21 05:06 am UTC (link)
	Cait smiled and blushed. It had been a nice evening and Aaron was a nice guy. He always had been. It was just that Cait was starting to see him in a whole different way. It was kind of exciting and scary at the same time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 05:21 am UTC (link)
	Aaron had had a really great time with Cait this evening. He had always like Cait, she had always been really nice and caring. But now he was starting to think of her differently, like he wanted her to be more than a friend. Though he wasn’t quite sure how to tell her that. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-21 05:23 am UTC (link)
	They made it up to the main building and Cait stopped in front of the door. She leaned in and kissed Aaron's cheek. "Thank you for a wonderful evening. I appreciate it so much." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 05:28 am UTC (link)
	“You’re welcome, I had a great time too,” Aaron said with a big smile before opening the door for Cait. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2010-03-21 05:32 am UTC (link)
	"Thank you." She slipped in the open door. "Sleep well," she said to him before heading up the stairs to her room. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	aaronwyatt 2010-03-21 05:34 am UTC (link)
	“Thanks, you too.”Aaron head in after Cait, and headed up to his room to get ready for going to bed. (Reply to this)(Parent)
