[ Lucky for Jinx that Kaeya doesn't mind that she's all up in his personal space. It just makes it easier for him to loop his arm around hers to keep them locked. Plus, the contact is nice?

Or maybe he's just touch-starved. ]

Hm. That makes sense, I suppose. You wouldn't know what you've never known in your life.

[ Soon after, he falls silent. He's thinking about how to explain how he knew he had powers. ]

The power I have [ had ] was granted to me by the gods of my world. I wasn't born with it— couldn't do a single magic trick until the gods took pity on me. They must have thought, how strange that this handsome fellow can't do wondrous things. [ His voice switches tones, as if trying to emulate the lofty demeanour of a god. ] We should grant him the ability to ice out whoever he wants. No one will mess with him after that.

[ He gestures with his free hand. ]

And just like that, I have powers.

[ he made that all up, but you know....... ]
