"Too fast, sorry." It's just we were CONSTANTLY SNUGGLING FOR A WEEK.

"I'm-I-yes maybe food first." Hopefully that will solve the thing where he can't think of things other than wanting to figure out what kissing Haru is like.

Haru nods and they can exit the building and head for the bistro.

Lucien is going to order a rather cheap pasta dish with a ridiculous number of ingredients and a glass of something called Fanta.

Haru gets a stuffed artichoke and pesto gnocchi. "So do you have any idea what your powers are yet?"

"No, nothing has actually shown up though presumably I'm missing something. I might have felt something while we um. In contact. After my backlash subsided. But nothing since then."

Haru holds out his hand across the table.

Yes Lucien can take his hand, a normal and not intimidating thing to do.

"I think I do feel something again? Other than what holding your hand normally feels like, which is. Nice."

"You can try it, I still have a little bit of dungeon backlash and might as well spend it on guiding down whatever you pick up from testing. As long as you're pretty sure it's not going to explode anything."

"Okay, uh."

There is the tiniest of zaps.

"Did that do anything?"

"Static electricity?"

"Hm... I think...I can feel that there is another thing I can do now, but now while holding your hand?"

"Any guesses what the thing is?"

"Pulling? It feels safe."

"It's probably safe then!"

"Should I try it?"

Lucien has not let go of Haru's hand.

"You don't have to, it's not a conventional powers testing site, but I'm curious, aren't you?"

"Yeah."

Lucien can let go of Haru's hand and pull and - Haru becomes translucent as he slides directly through the table, landing on Lucien's lap where he becomes opaque again.

Lucien eeps about this.

...okay that's really funny. Haru de-laps himself but he's giggling.

Lucien meanwhile has turned red.

"I didn't. Um. Expect that."

He is smiling a bit though.

"Of course not, you hadn't tried it before. That's useful though!"

"Enlapping people is useful?"

"Well, you could stand up so as not to have a lap, if that part bothers you. You could retrieve people who were going into situations where they might have a hard time getting out. Especially if it works across dungeon boundaries but even if you have to park inside the dungeon near the exit."

"I suppose that is relatively useful -  was going through the table unpleasant at all?"

"Nah, felt like nothing."
