Mike took a step back from the dummy and blinked a few times still looking at it. "I bet that's the first time you've ever had to ask for that." he said getting tired of Rufus's pompous attitude. He then added, "Out of curiousity, did you ever use Ice?"

Anatoly had an idea.
No, but it couldn't...
Could it?
He made a thin ice lance and began to walk to the empty adjacent room, stopping to see how Rufus' confrontation would end.

"Oh ******** this." Z said taking a step back. "If you need to see whether you are a man or not look into your ******** pants. You do not need to beat me up to validate yourself." He said reaching behind his head to tie his hair up. He used a hairband that had been around his wrist. He left it in a ponytail. "Now if you will excuse me, I am going to go hang out with the only person here who is secure enough not to seek validation in everything they do." He stated shaking his head in dismissal. He was of course guessing that Helen was normal but that would be fine for now. He walked in the direction of the exit.

He didn't look over at Mike as he spoke. "I told you, I can use any of your Stickers with a higher level of mastery than you can." He pulled up his sleeve to reveal the basic elemental Mystickers. He swiped Ice, then held out his arm. Two of the training dummies at the end of the room froze completely in a matter of seconds. An icicle slammed into each one, shattering it into a million shining pieces. He smirked as Z backed off. "That's what I thought," he called after him. "I'm ready any time, chump." He patted Anatoly on the shoulder as he exited the room. "Can't say I approve of your new friends, kid."

"That... is ******** ridiculous," Anatoly declared. "I'm going to go figure out basic explosives the next room over."
He exited and entered the empty room. He lined his lance up with a training dummy and jabbed it in.
Then he detonated the shaft of the lance.

"That wasn't what I asked, but you answered my question all the same. What does it think of you?" he asked focusing on his mysticker. He wanted to try and figure out if these things personalities were alike because they were the same mysticker.

The shaft itself exploded, showering the area with icelets, but the tip was small, and the explosion was almost inconsequential. Rufus poked his head back in the room to address Mike. "My Ice, as well as most of my Stickers, are well-attuned with me and have been serving me for years. They bend to my power, nothing more." With that, he left.

Anatoly cast away the remnants of his lance. "Now to inspect the inside..." He began to form an ice katana, layering and relaying the edge to make it as sharp as he needed it.

Mike shook his head and glanced around. "Don't worry, we'll work together. I'll do my best not to force you to do anything." he said to his mysticker. It seemed to want to help him, so he didn't want to do anything to upset it. "I won't let you control me though either, it's a partnership. I keep my body and I'll let you keep your will." he added remembering somebody warning him not to take them too lightly because they would take over.

Anatoly got the feeling that if he didn't hurry, he'd run into exhaustion. His Sticker didn't seem to be as caring as Mike's. Speaking of Mike, he got the feeling of a laugh. Not a jolly one; a sort of scary one. Chilling, to say the least.

Z laughed. "And while you are waiting for my touch, I will be with a woman." He said turning his back on them and walking out of the room. He shiver slightly once he was out of sight of the room, happy to have survived the encounter unscathed. He walked back to the front desk.

((Hahahaha. I like that; I was going to get on you guys about not being realistic in your encounters with other people, but you totally just fixed it.))
Helen glanced up from her magazine. "Am I supposed to be that woman?" she asked in a bored voice.

"Good enough," Anatoly muttered. He tilted the dummy on its side and dropped the oversized ice blade on it, letting its weight do the cutting. The dummy fell cleanly in half.

"I think I'm being reasonable so why that?" he asked it grabbing a drink.

The inside of the dummy was riddled with tiny holes at the impact site, but for the most part was fine. Other than being cut in half. No answer for Mike.
