Eris raised an eyebrow. "That's probably true. But what are you intending to do with my telekinesis, exactly? It's really not useful for anyone but me."

"Everything can be tamed." Kira's eyes glinted with challenge. She tugged on her gloves uncomfortably, itching for a pulsing rhythm to manipulate over the ground. "Everything can be controlled," Kira corrected, forcing her hands to stop twitching.

Eris squinted. "I'd have to disagree with that. Sometimes, even I can't control her," she admitted.

She pivoted on her foot, mulling over Eris's choice of words. "Her, you say?" After pacing a while, Kira concluded, "I doubt it. You, simply, don't understand how to control it. Yet." She snapped her fingers, voice changing to a purr. "I can teach you."

Eris raised an eyebrow. "That's- that's not how this works," she argued. "And even if it was possible to control h - it, what good would that do you?"

A small chuckle emerged from Kira. "Think," she told Eris. "The power to move objects, beings, others. To bring them to their knees out of spite and will-" The girl's arms waved dramatically as she painted the picture. "Unstoppable."

"I don't think you understand. I'm not the type to force someone to do something out of spite. And, to be quite frank, I've no desire to be unstoppable, either," sge pointed out.

(Painted Wings lmaooo)

Kira arched a brow. "I doubt you have any desire to be trapped in a prison cell, either, and yet here we are." She clasped her hands together, willing them to just stay still.

"Yes, well, I thought I should hear you out before I destroyed everything. Again, I'm not really the chaotic type," Eris countered drily, tapping her fingers on the floor.

An unconcerned laugh mingled with Kira's words. "Go ahead. Do your best - see what runs out first, your hope or your energy. You're brave, not stupid." The girl crossed her arms, prepared to raise a shield of radiation at any given moment.

Eris squinted. "Does that mean I can break the damn door now?" She asked? She tipped her head sharply to the side, and the door of the cell went flying. "Been a while since I had to do that," she commented. She smiled when she looked down at the villain's cloak, plucking it off the ground and swinging it over her shoulders. "Finally. It truly is freezing in here," she commented, walking back into the cell area and sitting down.

Her eyes glittered at the display of power. Yes, a girl with telekinesis certainly could come in handy. Pushing away the praise and slight envy, Kira merely drawled, "You can destroy this entire building. It won't matter - I'll make sure to tear your city to ruins to pay back the debt. Unless-" she stopped abruptly. "You're bleeding." The small cut which formed on Eris's hand gushed red. For some reason, Kira decided not to comment on the many scars that crisscrossed the hero's skin. "You're bleeding in my cell, all over the already filthy cloak you've stolen."

Eris looked down. "Yes, that happens," she said airily, ripping off a piece of her skirt and tying it around her hand. "Which is why I try not to do that."

"Using your powers, or stealing your enemy's clothing?" she countered. "After all, you didn't seem too keen on hesitating when…" Kira gestured vaguely to the hanging hinges of the doorway. She fought to keep the amused expression off of her lips, instead opting for a scowl. "Now I have to wash the cloak and repair the cell."

"Using my powers, obviously. My cells don't react to stealing my enemy's cloak. That should be obvious. And anyway, it's not as though I'm sorry," she said brightly.

Resisting the urge to slap the positivity out of the girl, Kira unbound her hair and analyzed their surroundings grimly. Ignoring the insult, she decided to see if the memories would come back with a little prompting. "Of course… Scarlet Night."

Eris blinked. Who - OH! "Ah, thanks. I'm always forgetting my made-up name. Not sure why I chose that one. Could've been, like, Silent Killer or Peregrine or… I dunno. I feel like comic book heroes like animal names. And edgelord names, of course."

"Really?" The Ace propped herself on the opposing wall, relaxing despite the tension. "Those sound like terrible hero names… though I think we've both determined you're the villain by this point," she tried.

Eris laughed, shaking her head. "No, we really haven't. I can't remember many small details, but I can certainly remember things like that. It was fun to have you try to convince me otherwise, though."

A barely discernible huff emerged from Kira's small body. It was teasing, though. Light. She jutted her chin at Scarlet Night. "I'm surprised you haven't tried to annihilate me, yet, Night."

Eris shrugged. "I function better in warm environments. And I usually wait for my opponent to attack first. It'd be a shame to start something unprovoked," she mused.
