[PRP] sparkfire (shun & jeremiah)

[azuredreams]

Jeremiah's lips twitched, his fingers flexing a moment. It was probably a sign of something but-

Well, Shun would probably notice that there was already a ball of cold fire hurtling his way. Still working on the young detective instinctively throwing a barrier up.

The silver-haired man huffed, a near chuckle. "It's keeping me active and I do some training with my husband as well." Algie and him had their own time set aside to strengthen themselves, both in Ashdown and other ashdown.

"There's likely little that would stop him if he truly wanted to but-" Jeremiah's eyes glowed brightly, a smirk briefly appearing. "I would give him hell in the process."

... which was about the time that the ball of cold fire was about to hit Shun.

Shun took note of the little twitch, which had him narrowing his eyes some. But he kept his gaze upon Jeremiah for now.

"Ideally you would also have some of us with you to ensure the Enemy receives hell should it come down to that," he stated before he outright vanished just as the cold fireball was about to impact with his form. A few wisps were all that remained where he had been standing.

The sergeant reappeared behind Jeremiah, to hopefully put his mentor in the literal line of fire.

"I don't expect to do this alone," Jeremiah replied. "As you said, ideally there's more than a handful of us." His head tilted as Shun disappeared, Jeremiah's eyes glowing brighter for it in the presence of magic and his eyes following until-

He huffed and caught the ball of cold fire. It dispersed against his hand, not a single mark on him or showing as if he was scorched.

"Getting better," he said, "but you what about the other two?" ... because there were two more coming but they had been delayed in anticipation that Shun had improved himself. No, really, Jeremiah was still intent on him learning how to throw up a barrier.

Letting out a huff after Jeremiah had caught the ball of cold flame, Shun was going to say something, but paused at the mention of two more. Wait.

He quickly looked around, trying to anticipate just where they were coming from. His fingers were a bit tense as he stood there, ready.

One was coming from the opposite direction, making a beeline straight for Shun.

The other? All he had to do was look up but the moment he noticed it Jeremiah's fingers flicked and it dispersed into smaller parts. The cold fire became small shards of ice.

The silver-haired man was a bit of a one-track mind on Shun learning to instinctively barrier himself.

The fireball was one thing. But the raining ice was another problem in of itself. It was already too late by the time he saw them. Cursing under his breath, he managed to side step the fireball, quickly bringing a hand up over his head. There was a quick 'splash' of shadow forming in the air with that motion. It seemed to almost shimmer in a way as parts of it began to crystallize.

Not completely, though. A few shards were blocked, while others penetrated through the inky blob.

Jeremiah smiled a bit, pleased to see that shadowy barrier give Shun some protection. His fingers flexed out a moment and the ice shards fell as water against the young detective.

There was no real desire to harm. Not that freezing cold water falling on someone was comfortable.

"Better," he said with a note of approval, "and you're thinking outside of yourself."

Jeremiah's eyes glinted and his stance was probably relaxed enough that Shun would be worried. "Now let's see what you can throw at me."

we can fade to black on your next post! ... > : 3 and start up something else!

The splash of ice water was definitely not the greatest feeling. Shun gritted his teeth from the stark chill as he shifted himself. That was a poor excuse of a barrier on his part, but it was a start. He'd need to refine that when he had the chance. The idea of combining shadow and ice had only just come to him this session, so he didn't have much there just yet.

But with this in mind he had a few ideas of how he could use this on an offensive scale as well. Unfortunately, none of these were quite formed enough in his head to really put to use yet.

For now, he dashed on towards Jeremiah at an unnatural speed. Maybe there was one thing he could try, though...
