[ He'll correct it then! ]
In Japan, our public transportation is so effective most people don't bother ever learning to drive or owning cars. Takao and I use a rear car and a bike. The carriages are fine.
[ He doesn't talk to a lot of people about Takao here. It brings up a strained feeling in the pit of his stomach, one he doesn't want to explain even if he's sure everyone here has it toward someone. Weiss obviously does, considering what happened with Ruby. It's duller now from time, but it hasn't gone away. He can't help but think it must be a lot worse fresh again. It's probably better they don't walk and get to the park so they can do something properly distracting for Weiss. ]

Weiss listens to Midorima, though, and as they leave the cafe and enter the streets, she looks around for a carriage to hail. Or maybe they can go to one of the waiting areas, either way, it seems that getting a carriage today is relatively easy. ]
We lived in dormitories in school, so all we had to do was walk to class. [ Or run, if they were late. Thanks, Ruby! ] But to travel to the city, we'd have to ride an airship.
no subject
That's a new one though. ]
An air ship?
no subject
Once in, she continues. ]
You can actually travel to Shaarnath and Theasthai on an airship, but the teleporters are definitely faster.
no subject
[ He's been on a plane, but not on an air ship. Seated, Midorima adjusts what is in his pocket since it took on a weird angle when he sat. It's his lucky item, of course, a folded pocket map. ]
no subject
[ At least, she assumes the airplanes in Midorima's world are the same as most planes for travel where she's from. They can keep talking about this or talk about something else until they reach the park, in which case Weiss hops down and pays the guy a few sylvs for bringing them there. ]
no subject
How much room do you think you'll need?
[ Do they need to put up a perimeter? ]
no subject
This should be fine, and it's not like we'll be harming anybody, anyway. [ She's about to start, then she remembers: ] It might get a little cold.
[ More like really cold... and it begins with the ground below them being covered in a layer of ice when she points two fingers on the ground before drawing a circle around them. The grass disappears and turns to white before it becomes encased in cold and sturdy ice. It doesn't end there, either. As Weiss concentrates on things that relaxes her, the ice travels upwards to create a wall around them. It all happens rather slowly, but the ice and glitter fall together and lift them from the ground to create a small tower. Should Weiss not get distracted by any reactions, the process speeds up. ]
no subject
If he'd seen this when he's first arrived, he might've been significantly more alarmed, but since it's Weiss so he knows for a fact she's not going to hurt him and he's a little more aware of dunamis than when he first arrived, he ends up looking mostly fascinated. Everything Weiss does is elegant and skillful it seems, he can't help but be impressed. Which means he'll pretty much keeps his mouth shut until she says she's done since Midorima doesn't know how to compliment like a normal human being. ]
no subject
When the tower finally finishes building itself just from Weiss' emotions, she lets out a rather content huff. There's a window that they can see the view of the park through. There are some kids and some other people nearby who seem to be staring at them, rather astounded by the sight. ]
This world likes turning my emotions into ice. For over a year, I could only control ice and water, but since I went home and returned here a little while later, I was able to control more elements.
no subject
How much work did it take to develop your skills this much?
[ He would take hard-working over a prodigy any day. Particularly given that he's seen her practically walks on little ice trails, he imagines this took a lot of control to learn to take care of this.He has other questions, of course, but that he asked that at all is his recognition that Weiss has done something that must have taken work to develop. It's his roundabout way of a compliment. ]
no subject
It took about half a year, I suppose. I practised everyday, and if I was busy that day, I made sure to at least be able to spend some time on training even if it was just ten minutes.
[ She looks over to him now and she wonders if he's cold. Probably. She did say it would get cold, so she touches the sill of the window and concentrates on her calm until the tower they're standing on gradually lowers itself to the ground. What was once the base holding up the tower turns into glitter before evaporating in the air. ]
Too cold?
no subject
[ He is cold, but like hell if he's admitting to it. He'll get frostbite before he admits it's affected him. Despite that he's shivering a teensy bit, if she's feeling particularly observant. ]
It takes a lot of discipline and dedication to complete practice like that. It sounds like you've been doing everything in your power to improve.
[
doki dokiWeiss might've just friendship leveled-up. ]no subject
She finds the shivering funny, by the way. Sorry, Midorima. ]
It's okay to tell me if you're cold.
[ Sadly, there's nothing she's willing to do to help him. She's not going to hug him...???? That would be weird. He hasn't earned the right for that yet.
Once they're back on the ground, the grass is only a little wet! And there's glitter everywhere. You just walked into a strip club and had a girl rub he breasts all over you, Midorima. ]
The glitter is nice, though it gets messy whenever I make something big.
no subject
[ Let him be his prideful self Weiss!! Don't judge his shivering!! ]
Explain the glitter.
[ Because. He gets the ice. Why the glitter?? Weiss doesn't seem like a birthday party gone wrong to him. ]
no subject
Whatever you say. As for the glitter? I don't know. [ She really doesn't, but she thinks it's nice to look at together with the ice. ] It's harmless, at least.
no subject
[ Weiss isn't a pain but her glitter is. His shoes are going to be bedazzled for the next month. X( ]
no subject
How about getting rid of it with your own magic?
no subject
[ He's set in his decision that what he can do is all luck-related in some way, for better or worse. ]
no subject
Do you want me to do it for you?
no subject
Can you? I thought yours was ice and glitter.
no subject
[ With a flick of her wrist, a very, very tiny tornado dances from one side of Midorima's shoulder to another. The glitter gets brushed away easily. ]
There we go.
no subject
How many elements can you control?
no subject
[ Enough that she is able to get shit done, anyway. The number of elements there are may be debatable when there are various types of Dust, which may not be considered the same type of elements in other worlds. ]
no subject
"Enough" is probably the best answer she can give for this reason, even if he wants to know more. ]
That's vague.
