"Fire could damage the forest. Here is fine. ...Would you like me to drop my burn protection?"

He grinned. "Please do." He pocketed his hands, then took a few steps back, nodding to her. "Just Ho, okay? Let the exam begin." He widened his footstance, for balance.

Nyl nodded. She, too, took a defensive stance - the one she would normally use when preparing to use water-based attacks.

He held a hand out infront of him, rose it, then brought it down quickly. A wave of intense heat, visible through heatwaves, began collapsing down on top of Nyl.

Nyl could feel the temperature around her rising. She stood still, eyes locked on Seph, but focusing on pushing the heat away from her, back toward him.

Aven smiles and pets Didymus.
"So? Go introduce yourself."

He grinned as he felt his temperature rise. He rose an eyebrow and literally took hold of the heat and tossed it to the side. He took a step forward, taking a very Kung-Fuesque turn as he shot his open palm out. The heatwaves that fired her way were scalding.

She found it interesting that he wasn't using any actual fire, just heat. She closed her eyes in concentration, creating a barrier of heat around herself - it would keep his heat waves out, and it would be cool (ish) inside.

Reeve bolts, ignoring the urge to clasp her hand in fear.
"B-but what if he cries?"

Seph took another step forward, using his other hand again. He snapped this time, though. Heat was fun, but nothing matched the thrill of fire. There would be a soft popping sound just a few milliseconds before the explosion--the same sound his teleportation made.

Aven lets out a fit of laughter at Reeve's reaction and glances over at him.
"If he cries then rock him or sing to him. Just go to him."

Nyl threw up her hands in front of her face as the explosion went off. An identical one would make itself known shortly afterward at Seph's feet, while Nyl was still dealing with his.
((Ah, Seph and his boom-boom time.))

Nyl's explosion sent Seph airborne, but the fluxuations in the temperature around him let him know what was coming. He had only a split second to prepare, but he used every bit of it, landing on his feet a few yards back. He snapped his fingers three more times, in rapid succession. He targeted her head, her right wrist, and her ribcage. A little tribute to Kendo.

Nyl could feel the explosions coming, in a way she couldn't explain. She contained the emplosion near her head in its own heat-bubble; the other two went off as they should have. She fell back a few steps, as though that would somehow take her out of range. She'd forgotten how burns felt.

Reeve nods, as scared as he's ever been, and creeps toward the crib. He gently reaches down, and picks up Dalcon, his eyes wide in wonder.
"Hello there, Dalcon...It's me.....d-dad..."
The boys', that's both of them, eyes well up at the same time, and, as seems to be constant with Reeve lately, tears begin to flow. Silencing him before he can actually cry, Reeve cradles Dalcon in his arms, close to him.
"It's okay, Dalcon...my son...By God, my son...."
(( Argh! Bollocks!))
