Kylo wondered, for a moment, whether Gambit could energize a person and have them explode like that, and he wondered how he could go about getting that power for himself. Alas, it was impossible; he was a Sith Lord, not a mutant, but he did have some tricks up his sleeve still, as he tried to deal with the flurry of cards. He knocked the first barrage away from him and into trees where they exploded with force.
But they kept coming and Kylo couldn't hope to contain them all. He flipped some up over their heads to explode but one got through, exploding a few feet away from him and sending him careening back to thud up against the trunk of a tree, Kylo falling to the ground with a laugh and wiping soot off his face.
"Love it." He called back, rolling behind the tree for a moment to breathe and recharge. Getting up hurt, his back was screaming at him, but he did it anyway and reached out, a phantom hand curling around Gambit's throat again to pull him across the clearing, the tips of his toes skimming over the grass. "But look what I can do." He said once Gambit was close enough that Kylo could let go of him and jut out a hand, Force lightning jumping out about a foot, just barely crackling against Gambit's skin.
