[It’s late and Lance should probably be sleeping but it’s a new place, a new planet even, and there’s still a lot of things he’s been mulling over that are keeping him up. So instead of being in bed, he’s in the kitchen, quietly making hot cocoa as you do at midnight.

As he’s waiting for the milk to heat up in the pan, his eyes drift over to the window. There isn’t much of a view as its mostly foliage and a patch of sky — or so he thought. A branch he doesn’t quite remember from the day before has grown just outside the window, its leaves just brushing the glass,

Well that doesn’t seem like it’s going to be safe. They’re probably going to have to do something about that in the morning. He shelves the thought for later as he grabs a cup and finishes making his drink. An insistent rustling at the window interrupts this though, and this time when he glances over, he finds the leaves are now pressed up against the windowpane.]

Weird.

[Not entirely sure what to make of it, he gives his eyes a quick rub. Imagining things maybe? Yeah, that’d be nice. Allura did say that a lot of things weren’t as they seemed here, so maybe there’s no need for alarm. Then there’s the crack about a minute later. It’s just a tiny line in the glass at first, followed by another and another until it shatters.]

Uh… Keith? Allura?! Guys?!

[emblazes]

[A handful...yes...a handful of glass clatters into the trash before he's back assessing the branch -- looking between Allura and it. He thinks to reassure her once more -- at least they know what the root (lol) cause is and they aren't dealing with a demolished home/hungry, sentient tree. Any words he may've come up with are swallowed with a sigh and in nearly the same instance, she's sprucing up the tree.

Something like that.]

You haven't always been able to do that?

[A dumbass question sprung from her apology. It's not like she's making the situation worse as much as she's just verifying something...nevermind that there's a ghostly bit of Tree floating mysteriously nearby??? Which is what his eyes are drawn to.

Distinctly frowning all the while. Trying to ascertain if this is Allura's power going haywire or what...quietly.....]

[quintessent]

[She gives Keith a look that might as well say have you ever seen me do this before but… it’s a fair question,]

While my powers have been difficult to predict ever since Oriande, I am certain that this is something… new. [The pause is brought to you by the sight of the floating branch catching her attention. She frowns, looking back to Keith whose looking at her, ]

I’m not doing that! [Probably?? She attempts to snag the branch out of the air with her hand, but it connects with something before making contact with the stick. Something hand shaped and hey, Lance, if you’ve had dreams of holding Allura’s hand, now’s your chance.]

Oh-! Lance!
