Characters: Crystal, Pietro Setting: Genosha, manor gardens Content: Approved for all audiences Summary: Crystal and Pietro meet in the garden to talk as Crystal waters the plants with her powers.
Back home in Attilan, one of Crystal's simple joys was causing rain to fall on her homeworld. Inside their sealed space, first hidden away on Earth and now safely away on the moon, there was a distinct lack of natural rainfall, and although it was possible to use machines to serve the purpose of causing plants to flourish, it was also true that there always seemed to be at least one member of her society who could bring about the changes necessary to alter the otherwise never changing weather conditions inside the dome walls. It was this that she did now on the grounds of a mansion in Genosha, one that was her currently temporary but possibly (she hoped) permanent home. While she could have used her powers to affect a larger area, Crystal was only causing the rain to fall within the limits of the garden itself. Floating two stories above the ground, Crystal smiled contently, completely dry within the bubble of air she had surrounding her. It wouldn't be too long until it was time for her to go home, and at the moment the answer to whether she would stay in Attilan or return was, like her, up in the air. From the information given to her by one of the few pieces of technology she had brought with her, Crystal understood that she was approximately at the midpoint between her arrival and the time she would be brought back home. There were things that needed to be said before much more time had passed.
