Xavier Mansion - Boathouse on the Dock
A wooden dock stretches fifteen feet out into the water. Students can fish from the dock, or dive off if they like. A few rowboats, canoes, and paddle boats are tied to the docks for the students to use. A boat house where students can find paddles and life jackets sits at the edge of the water.
It's a rather chilly day at the school, save for the fact that it's nearing night time. Standing on the beach, looking out at the water would be the resident aerokinetic of the school. Just humming to himself as his hands are stretched outwards; fluidly moving through the air as leaves caught up in his winds are twirling and flipping through the air. Evening power practice?
"Out practicin', Lil' Breeze?" comes moments before Owen Folger appears, all fuzzy, behind Kael. He's dressed normally, the cold not bothering him thanks to powers. "Or jus' havin' fun?"
Kael grins a bit. "A bit of both." The rush of wind roars past Owen with a laugh from the aerokinetic before it circle around him; going at the max range that he can get. "Just pushin' the limits on what I can do with a simple breeze."
Kael laughs at the ruffle of his white hair, and he says, "Goin' pretty well. I can get pretty far away from me with strong wind." He brings his other hand into the mix, bringing two gusts of wind into the mix as two bundles of leaves swirl and dance.
Owen smiles approvingly, slipping fuzzy hands into his pockets. "Great job then, Lil' Breeze. Nice an' proud of ya," he says.
The winds stop above Kael, letting the leaves fall down around him as small swirl of wind knocks them away. "I also have a question to ask of ya. Well, a few really. Have you ever been snowboarding?"
Owen watches the leaves with an amused smirk. He offers a fanged smile when Kael mentions a question. "Snowboardin'? No, Ah can' say Ah ever have."
Kael grins a bit. "Would ya like to learn how?" While he can hide his emotions on the outside, the wind reflects his inner happiness with a jubilant swirl around him.
Owen gives Kael a look, crouching a bit to be on eye level with the aerokinetic. "What're ya'll schemin' up there, Lil' Breeze?" he asks.
Kael lets out a small snicker as he opens up his jacket, pulling out a ticket that leads to Vermont for a stay at a ski lodge. "It was a christmas gift from my mentor, Keith. Since Max and I aren't old enough to go alone, I was gonna ask you to come with as a chaperone."
Owen's eyes go wide. He'd not been expecting anything like that. HE reaches for the ticket to examine it. "YOu're mentor?" he asks. "If ya'll got Mr. Summers' permission, Ah'd be happy tah take the two of ya."
Kael rubs the back of his head. "It kinda happened by fluke really. He bein' the Spirt of the Air and all, and me being an air manipulator. Kinda like takin' me under his wing and helping me get better… since well. There aren't make ones like me here." He beams wide before he nods, "Well, I wanted to ask you before him incase ya said no."
Owen nods slowly, turning the ticket over before handing it to Kael. "Well, if Mr. Summers says it's okay…Ah'll come alon' with you guys."
Kael snickers. "Max wants to pull an a scare tactic while we're up there." He laughs a bit at that. Then he nods a bit, "I'll be sure to ask him in the morning."
Owen arches an eyebrow. "A scare tactic?" he asks. "Oh who and what did he have in mind?" he asks. Pranks are alright for Owen, he just wants to make sure it won't get them hurt or in trouble.
Kael rubs the back of his head. "He wanted to go into ice form, snowboard down a hill as an abominable snowman or something like that." He shrugs a bit. "I think it'd be funny."
Owen stares a moment before laughing. "It would be funny" he says. "But maybe we should fin' out if its a place that'll go full on SWAT team at the sight of a mutant first."
Kael hms. "I could ask Keith about the place a bit more if ya'd like. Or just go online and look?" He shrugs a bit with a small laugh. Everything can be found online! Except for a life.
Owen nods. "Good idea there, Lil' Breeze," he says, ruffling Kael's hair again. "If Mr. Summers says yes…how about you, me, an' Max go shoppin' for some suitable clothes?"
Kael grins a bit. "I still got a good bit of money left on that gift card I got from Leo! So, we could head to Abercrombie and Fitch for stuff." He smiles a bit and then nods. Then he looks back out at the water and hms a bit, "Wonder if I can get away with using my powers to keep my balance on a snowboard."
Owen laughs. "If that's where you two wanna go, that's where we'll go," he says with a nod. "Have ya ever been snowboardin' before?" he asks curiously.
Kael grins before he shakes his head. "Nope! Never tried! But I know balance is part of it!"
Owen shakes his head a bit. "Ah predict a lot of fallin' down on this trip," he says in an amused tone.
Kael grins. "Good thing I can cushion my fall then." He lifts himself up off of the ground with a swirl of air for a second or two and then sets himself back down.
Owen reaches out to snatch Kael up as he lands and tried to put him on his back piggyback ride style. "C'mon, let's get inside before it gets too dark."
Kael lets out a laugh as he's put onto Owen's back. "That's probably a good idea. I'm a bit hungry at the moment as well." He puts a hand on his stomach with an urgh before he holds onto Owen again.
Owen laughs again before starting to jog towards the mansion. "Then to the kitchen we go!"
