You— ugh. [Ekko splutters indignantly. Frankly, he should have known which mood switch she was about to flip by her question alone, but alas.

Either way, he ends up more surprised by her falling over than her rapid approach, which he leans away from but it's not like he can really do anything more: he's seen eye twinkling trick too many times to not know what it means. Usually it's the neon pink sign that the Firelights need to get the hell out of dodge, hop on a hoverboard and get too high up to be reached, but Ekko's board is busted because he didn't prioritize repairing it while he totally unable to ride it around.

She's not attacking anyway, which he's not sure how to interpret. Instead she's just showing off, taking gleeful delight in her new inhuman abilities, and he has to wonder how long she has before it wears off and she gets to experience that horrible come-down that inevitably follows.

He gives her a look that's a little too unimpressed at her flashy display and subsequent fall for a guy who just completely failed to walk even a quarter mile due to the sand. Honestly, where's the respect?]
