The light from her hands intensifies & starts to encompass the sphere held between them. "Oh!" Rikku gasps in surprise, nearly dropping the sphere for a brief moment. Oddly enough, what looked like a drop of water was dropping from the bottom of the sphere in the space between her hands where they did not touch. It was growing.
When the water reached the size of the sphere it was released with no trail of water left behind to show its strange formation. The new sphere rolled down the slope of her raised legs -slightly pulling her skirt with its downward momentum- to land in the crook of her lap.
Stunned, Rikku can only stare at it mutely. It now looks exactly like the one she holds in her hand.

Naruto's eyes go wide as he witness' Rikku quite literally make a double of the sphere that was in her hands. "Wow...how did you do that?!" he as softly, reaching down and grabbing the sphere in her lap, holding it lightly in his hand.

"I.... I... I dunno." The Al Bhed breathed, still stunned. "I don't know anything about this DressSphere's powers... maybe it's something to do with that?"

Naruto blinks a few times, but he just shrugs, looking down at the sphere in his hand, "That's pretty cool if you ask me! You can probably make doubles of other stuff if you wanted to!" he says, turning his sphere this way and that as he gets a good look at it.

"Maybe..." It was too confusing to Rikku. Learning on the DressSpheres did not necessarily work the same way she had grown accustomed to. "Maybe it's 'cause I really wanted it..."
Her voice trailed off & she shook her head. "No matter! We've each got one now! Lemme show you how to use it!"
Twisting slightly in the arm still around her the Al Bhed begins the simple -to her- lesson. "Okay, this is play... that's the easiest way to watch it. The depression over here? Press that once lightly & a knob comes out. You can adjust the speed with that. There's another one on the other side for sound, but sometimes it doesn't seem to work. Probably when a sphere was recorded soundless."
She continued to explain how it worked until Rikku felt she had covered everything fairly well. "Oh, & don't worry about recording over it... that's no-can-do with a sphere like this." She winked happily. "Booyah! If this hasn't been fortunate! Fayths!" Grinning, she kissed Naruto on the nose.

Naruto listens intently as she explains how to use the sphere, and he sure as hell wouldn't record over it, he wanted to keep that forever if he could! He blushes when she kisses his nose and he chuckles, setting the sphere gently on the ground so he could grab it again if he wanted to. "Come on, lets get started on the s'mores before it gets too late!" he says

"Booyah!! Okay!" Setting her sphere beside his Rikku hops up & reaches for a stick & some marshmallows. "Though I can't see it ever being too late for s'mores!"

Naruto chuckles and nods, grabbing a stick and marshmellow and setting it up. He then sets his close to the fire so he can start to warm up and brown a little. Once that is done, he proceeds to fix himself a s'more, quickly taking a bite and stretching the marshmellow as he pulls his hands back.

Rikku found it much easier to toast marshmallows without so many flames from the fire getting in the way. Of course, it was now dark, with only starlight & moonlight to show how done the marshmallows were. Still she managed, toasting her marshmallows & making her s'mores & then sighing happily in satisfaction. "mmmm.... thanks for showing me s'mores, Ruto. They're so yummy."

Naruto smiles through his mouthful as he chews, looking quite cute with his cheeks bulging and a mess around his mouth and cheeks. Gulping, he lets out a happy sigh, "No problem, I knew you would like them, especially when we got permission to actually go camping!" he says, fixing himself another one and chomping down on it.

Fixing more for herself, Rikku smiles fondly at the ninja. She wanted to touch his overstuffed cheeks & lick the s'more goodness off of his face but she desisted. Instead Rikku giggled. "Isn't it the best?" Her giggles shook her. "Can't you eat them any cleaner, Ruto? You're wearing half of it! I'm gonna have'to clean you up again!"
Despite the joking reproach in her tone, Rikku's green eyes sparkled -obviously quite looking forward to making good her promise.

Naruto blushes a little bit as he chews his latest, gooey treat. He did make a mess of himself because 1. He really wanted to get the s'mores in his mouth as quickly as possible; and 2. He really wanted Rikku to clean his face off again. But he had to wonder, if she did, would the fire spark at him again? He noticed it only seemed to do that when he and Rikku were close, no matter how far away from the fire he was and he didn't want Rikku to accidently get hit!

She made just one more, deciding that it would be plenty if she did not want to overstuff herself. Besides, there was the mess on Naruto's face to tend too. Rikku ate her s'more carefully, looking over top of it to watch the ninja. She could not know what he was thinking. "Don't worry... I'll wait til you're done."

Naruto gulps, glancing over at the innocently burning fire. Yea, it was best to play it safe for now, that fire was unpredictable and he really didn't want to get hit with another spark if he could hep it. Besides, him and Rikku could make s'mores another time and get close whenever they wanted....away from the fire. Gulping down his last s'more, he sees they have enough fixings for one more night. Standing up, he gestures to the lake, smiling sheepishly, "I think I am gonna get get cleaned up in the lake!" he says and makes his way over, untying his headband off his head, his blond hair falling around his face again.

Rikku blinked. Cleaned up? She would miss her chance to clean him up. Jumping to her feet she shouted at him. "Hey! Wait up!" Then she ran to catch him. Nevermind that her thief sphere was still in the bag with the others. "You are not getting away from me that easy, Ruto!"
She launched herself at him, fully intending to "clean him up" HER way before the lake can come into play.
