It's probably more than likely that they've put some sort of limit on my power. [He didn't like to admit it, but what happened in the mist didn't feel as strong as back home. It was weaker and he still couldn't completely control it right away. Granted, it was due to a glitch, but it was still unnerving.] I don't know. Maybe I wouldn't, but I can also see them enjoying letting me destroy a moon.

[It's true. The Atroma could also use it as an opportunity, but if they limit all their actions by that standard where would they be?] You don't need to decide anything now. I can keep my eye out for a system that might be safe for trying? See how you feel then?

I'll think about it. [He means it. He will give it some thought because she does have a point. Having more control would mean he would be less likely to accidentally destroy a city again. He's still worried about destroy things while practicing.]

[She'll worry with him. It could be dangerous for some mutants to practice their powers too. Jono's body could barely contain his and there were plenty of others who had accidentally harmed others or destroyed things beyond their control. That's why control was important, but it could be a hard balance.

She nods.]

I was worried about you. [And she was. It was hard waiting for him to wake up after everything.]

I'm sorry that I worried you. I didn't mean to make people worry about me. [He just wanted to find the lost kid and reunite her with her worried mother.] That mist was a lot worse then I thought it would be.

[It was, maybe just her clumsy way of saying she cares, but she doesn't want him feeling bad about it.]

Hey, you didn't do anything wrong. You don't have to be sorry. I'm glad you were there for her. It's too bad the Atroma wanted to add extra fun to it with the augments.

I hope she got home safe. [If Kitty had check then she would have been able to find out that she did.]

She did. I followed up while you were out. They gave me your mask back too and their thanks.

[Vash visibly relaxes hearing that.] Oh thank goodness. I was so worried about her. Thank you, for checking on her.

Everyone came out okay. [She leans in and kisses his forehead. He's extra endearing when he shows concern for a complete stranger like this.] Even you I think. You are, aren't you? Or should we get you to a doctor?

[Vash gives his chest a quick pound over his heart.] I'm healthy and fine. I swear. I'm feeling great. [He's being honest. After the long rest he's feeling rejuvenated.] At worst I'm starving. So I need a cook more than a doctor I think.

Go take a shower. [It has been awhile after all.] I'll have breakfast waiting for you. Hopefully it's been long enough you've forgotten what food should taste like. [Teasing her cooking skills even if they are really quite.......non lethal. They're fine. Nothing anyone would hire her to be a cook over, but they're fine.]

[His interest clearly and suddenly perks up at the suggestion of breakfast.] I probably forgot what pancakes taste like. [He's not sure if they have everything for pancakes, but it doesn't stop him from wanting them.]

I guess I found the way to your heart. [Haha, awkward. Kitty, that's not what you're trying to get to remember?]

Um, I can probably manage those. [She thinks she can work them out. There's probably nothing like syrup for them, but she can figure out something to make up for that.]

Food is always the way to a man's heart! Even a man like me. [Someone that isn't human.] But really? We have enough for pancakes? With a side of bacon kelp?

We have enough for pancakes with a side of bacon kelp. I could do some coffee too.

She reaches out to take his hand in hers.] Even a man like you? [Gentle, but maybe lightly scolding.]

Yes! [He gives his arm a victory pump.] Coffee also sounds great.

[Vash just grins like an idiot as she takes his hand.] Well, I did just tell you I am a Plant. Usually there's a photosynthesis joke that comes from that.

I'm not above a photosynthesis joke. [And she's not. She can be a little tactless at times. But she also cares and she knows something about being different and treated differently. So she continues more seriously.] But also, I want you to know I see you as person first. That didn't change when I learned about you being a Plant.

[Is she going to say the next thing? Okay, yes, she's going to say it even if feelings are involved.] If anything it made me feel closer to you.

[Vash blinks in surprise a few times, even though he really shouldn't be.] Really? Me nearly killing you made you feel closer? Is that what I was doing wrong with all my flirting before?

Okay, when you say it that way it makes me sound a little strange. [Damaged maybe.] But...yeah, kind of. Just like being back home?

Oh yeah? [He takes her hand and gives it a squeeze.] Well, I'm glad I could make you feel back home. Even for a little bit. [Kind of?] But I hope you're not insulted if I say I'm going to try to never do that again.

[She squeezes his hand in return.] Not insulted. [She miles a little.] I appreciate the part where I wasn't hurt. I like that in a guy too.

I appreciate that too. [He frowns for a moment because he really wants to say that he could never hurt her, but he knows that would be a lie. As much as he doesn't want it to be true he knows one day he may unintentionally hurt her. Physically or emotionally.] I would have never forgiven myself if I hurt you.

I would have phased. I probably would have been fine. [And she might have been, but she can't really know that. Not all energy blasts interact with her phased state the same way.]

And for the record, if you ever do accidentally hurt me you should forgive yourself. I think you're living with enough of that. [She hopes he'd never do it on purpose. She doesn't think he would, but she's been hurt (killed) by men who she was sure would die to protect her, so what does she know?]

Hm. Probably. [He's pretty sure she would be fine, but he's not about to ask to test it any time soon.]

I would try to. [Although it sounds like he's mostly saying that to please her.] I have to admit, if I seriously hurt you, accident or not, it would be really hard to forgive myself. [There's the honesty that he's trying to do more of.]
