He looked to the others and then back to Gardenia as she unlocked their shards. Though as noted, Luca had two glistening shards to unlock but that didn't seem any different from the others. Hale grinned as he watched his new friend try to summon some kind of mighty winds. He held her breath, somehow hoping that would help. That maybe the unused air would be given to Luca instead. "You were bouncing more than anything." Hale smirked at Luca. "That was great." He said more seriously. "Well done." Gardenia nodded, still a bit worried for Luca. Still keeping her fingers metaphorically crossed that none of them got into any danger. Of course she was keeping an eye on them, ready to act if necessary. At the small gust of wind, Hale shook his own head, trying to subtly fix his hair. "You watch it, kid." He chuckled. All that was left was for Katya to give her powers a try. Gardenia watched and as she created a large burst of fire and threw it away, Gardenia quickly secured it in a tight round structure made of rock. The fire was quickly soothed and no harm had come to anyone nor the stage or room itself. Gardenia looked back to Katya, nervous about how she might be emotionally connect to her powers and if her trepidation might impede her somehow. She hoped that wasn't the case of course. "Very nice, Katya." She smiled when the girl seemed to quickly correct the scale of her next attempt. At Luca's remark, she looked to him. "Yes..you and I share actually share two types of power." She said softly. "It may be possible for you two to get secondary powers as my father furthers his research." She informed Katya and Hale, not wanting them to feel left out or something like that. She then looked back to Luca. "So it'l be harder for you to perfect two abilities simultaneously but soon it will become second nature." She told him. "Think of it like using either side of your brain. When you have a problem you can look at it from several different perspectives." She said. "Your mind can connect with two ideas: to make wind or two make something beautiful. You just need to practice those skills individually before being able to do...well something like this." The pink haired girl then magically rose from a rock pillar and conjured a thin ring made of stone. She held up the ring as a lion jumped out of it. The lion roared and jumped from the air down to the stage and paced around. It was real, made of soft fur and strong bones. "His name is Charlie and he's quite tame." She assured the three. She jumped down and onto the lion's back as she waved her ring again and a flock of ravens flew out. At the same time, she used her other hand, flinging it upwards as small stone made perches were formed and allowed the birds to settle and stay in the air, looking down patiently. "Real birds? Not made for food or from scrap metal." Hale muttered. "Books don't doe your creatures justice..." Hopping off the lion, it followed her obediently. "So it's a lot to take in I know..." SHe started to say. "But what do you all think?" Mostly her worry was with Katya and her choice, as it seemed fairly clear that the boys were interested in her father's mission.
