Nikola really wasn't sure how THAT was something to do with porn. "....I'm almost afraid to click." Yes, he's definitely going to continue looking and being distracted for the moment.

"All sorts... House Tempest travel through water. The Head of that house is known to be a pirate and rather talented with traveling through whirlpools.."

He paused to look at an article titled simply 'You won't believe what was rescued!' with a picture of a firefighter and some animal. Nikola was almost reluctant to even try to click on that.

"You'd be surprised." He ponders this information for a moment. "Traveling through whirlpools is a new one. How do they manage it?"

[peaceful_shadows]

"Or horrified."

He shook his head and continued to look and honestly, this distraction was really bad for him keeping his secrets. What kind of sorcery was this.

"Bloodline ability. It's an affinity for an element that makes it easier to manipulate.. Tempest has water, Faust has land, Father had shadows... and Mother had flesh and bone."

It's with that last one that Nikola realizes what he's been saying and tenses slightly. "...Of course, that...Well, fuck."

He laughs as he realizes the man is spilling far more than he intends to. Still it's interesting to know.

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. Also you'd hardly be the first kind of being to be able to manipulate elemental energy... or otherwise. What can you do with a shadow anyway?"

Well, that wasn't quite the reaction he was expecting. Then again, no one seemed to react the way he expected around here. Nikola really had to stop measuring people by his world's standards and just learn to go more with the flow.

Especially in moments like this.

"A lot actually. It can be used both offensively and defensively if a shadow user is skilled enough. Though, the most common thing we do with our abilities tend to be traveling from one point to another. The.. older and more skilled you are, the longer the distance."
