"Well now you're being fickle for a slip of the tongue," Iris said tilting her head to the side and giving Alex a cross look. "All in all, how do you feel about the weather here?"

"I'm sorry," Alex grinned. "Well, it takes getting used to, but I've probably seen all seasons and I can't say it was anything really bad."

"I see, well I was mentioning it in case you're cold I can help you," Iris said as she climbed over a fallen log and looked back at Alex waiting for him to climb over it.

"Really? How?" Alex asked, stepping over the fallen log.

Iris grinned and fluttered her eyelashes, "You're living in a school where everyone has a mutant power, how do you think?" she told him rather cheekily. Her hand shot out and was placed on the middle of his chest. "My speciality is thread control," she told him before her eyes began glowing light purple as she charged his hoodie with her powers. It shimmered a little before settling into the thread and began gently heating the thread.
"A tad over dramatic, but I get a kick out of surprising people with that," Iris said cracking her fingers and smiling again. "Better? I haven't burned anyone yet with it, you should be alright until it fades away."

Alex was surprised, and then some more, when his clothes began to feel warmer. "Thank you," he said. "This looks like a nifty set of powers." After a small pause, he added, in a more serious way, "Gotta give you a small warning, though - before you do something like using your powers on another person, make sure you give them a heads up. It was a nice surprise for me, but someone else might just get scared and fry you on the spot... Or your powers might enter in a bad resonance- You seriously don't want to risk that."

Iris shrugged, it had been a little risky, "I'm usually a little more cautious, so far no one has had a reaction to it," she said moving a branch out of the way and allowing Alex to pass. "It doesn't effect the person just the clothes. But I will keep in mind, usually I'm pretty good about guessing who is more nervous, or twitchy."

"Okay," Alex said, "just some heads up, you know, I've heard weird stories, I tend to be careful around people. That, and I don't have full control over my abilities, so-" he shrugged.

"Ah, I see, no worries being here is probably the best place to learn. But you probably already knew about that," Iris said slowly changing the subject from her embaressing rashness. "So who is your brother?"

Alex nodded at her first remark and replied, "Scott Summers," giving Scott's full name because, if the girl was so knew as not to know her way around the mansion's grounds, she could probably also go 'Scott who?'

"Scott who?" Iris asked tilting her head to the side as she went through her memory to try to remember if she had ever met him. "I might have seen him around but was never introduced to him. That's nice though that you have family here to support you."

Alex was a bit surprised, but then figured that not everyone at the mansion was the staff or the students, some lead more solitary lives and not necessarily knew everyone (the Professor being, perhaps, the only exception). "It is good, yes," he agreed. "And what's your story? Teaching, training, hiding?"

"Uh, when I came here I was hiding, now I do some freelance teaching music to the more interested students inbetween my school schedule. I would like a little training, but I don't think I'm to the point that I'm ready for it. So I work on control, patterns, meditation, and practice, mild practice," Iris said not adding experimenting with one of the teachers to inhance the teacher's powers and the backlash had Iris' powers to expand and for her personality to be more confident.

"I see," Alex nodded. He noticed that they were approaching the lake. Why would he want to be near the lake, he had no idea, but then he was simply taking a fresh look around, so the lake could probably do, too. "Small steps, then? It's probably a reasonable approach, from what I've seen."

"It is the best bet, better then loosing control and hurting someone," Iris agreed as the trail ended opening up to the lake. Iris let out small gasp of enjoyment. "How lovely."
