[ Hm. Well, that's one way to do it. After Juvia knocks out the tooth, Koltira reaches forward, his eyes narrowed. A whip of dark energy bursts from his open palm, lashing around the tooth, adjusting itself to fit the thing's shape. Koltira flicks his wrist and the line of shadows quivers, snapping back like a boomerang, tooth in tow.
He nods to Juvia as he gets his hands on the prize, a clear expression of gratitude on his face. Speech remains a problem, so he jabs a thumb at the surface. Going up? ]

[ Koltira breaks the surface with tooth in tow, feeling a momentary rush of pleasure at having accomplished his goal. Like all positive feelings, though, it's fleeting, rushing away from him just as quickly as it came. Even so, he knows that he owes this woman his thanks.
He jumps up out of the water, and icy power glows beneath his feet as he does so. When he comes down again, he's standing on top of the ocean, the water having frozen beneath him. ]
My thanks--
[ He pauses, noticing the glitter in her eyes. He finds it alarming. ]
--are you well?

[ He lifts a glowing blue hand. ]
If you should like to stand on the water, I can grant you that power.
[ He inclines his head to one side, clearly ignorant of everything Juvia's thinking. ]
Unless you can do so yourself.
[ Her abilities hadn't escaped his notice, either. But such elemental magic was common enough on Azeroth. ]

[ He sweeps his hand, and the humming orb of freezing magic flows from his palm towards her, slipping under the water and shimmering beneath her feet. ]
Jump, and the ocean will turn to ice for you.
[ He shrugs at her question. ]
The latter, I suppose. All of my kind can do it.

[ Even through an untimely death. He had questioned what his friendship with Thassarian meant, once they were both free of the Lich King's control. They had left each other, for a time. But he had found he missed Thassarian's companionship, and that--more importantly--the bond formed under duress did not so easily break.
A ghost of a smile passes over his face. He still wonders if it was wrong, or weak, to cling to that friendship. ]
An idealistic sentiment.
[ He shakes his head. ]
But you are not wrong, either.

No need to fret. I’ve sharp senses, so I will keep an ear out.
[ As if to illustrate his point, he lifts his hat, revealing the feline ears beneath. As if his tail wasn’t enough of a giveaway to the fact that he isn’t human. ]
We miqo’te are natural-born hunters. I'll do my best to see to it that we aren't hunted instead.

I've never seen any. This is the first time.
[ Sometimes he's prone to touch and reaches out to trail his blunted fingertips against some of the foliage. All the leaves are cool to the touch as night settles into the humidity. It smells sort of green and earthy, way more alive than the dusty wastelands he grew up in. ]
There's a lot that's like that for me. Like forests, or lakes. So I explore when I can.
[ It's better than being idle, anyway. ]

[oh wow this is surprisingly more awkward than he expected it to be.]
Uh... Before you got there, she... also had to get me off the street that night. Then I napped it off, and ran back to drink more, and that's about when you found me.
