Lucas nodded, a burst of light shocking Skye lightly. "Ah! I-I'm so sorry!" Lucas fell back a bit, closing his hands in hopes that the magic would stop.

Skye winced as it happened, but quickly pulled the other back to him. "Alright, try copying me," he said, "Summon a small ball of this power" he said, summoning a ball of his own.

Lucas hesitated before holding out his hand, summoning a small ball of fire. He was capable of making it much larger, of course, but he was afraid to try.

Skye nodded, carefully manipulating his into a strin, like clay, controlling it so no part of the essence escaped.

Lucas tried to do the same, but his magic flared and backfired, throwing him backwards onto the ground.

Skye was instantly at his side, pulling him close, "You'll get it…"

Lucas sat up, wincing slightly. He let Skye help him to his feet and tried again, this time using light magic instead of fire. It was less likely to backfire and hurt him. He formed the ball and slowly stretched it as Skye had done.

Skye smiled, picking it up again, before weaving it into a design.

"I-I'm scared…" Lucas said quietly, staring intently at the magic in his hands. As he got more nervous, it started to swirl and spark.
(Basically his magic is closely tied to his emotions, and he's an emotional wreck lol)

"It's okay" said Skye calmly, "Just let it flow…"
(Awweeee)

(That's why using his magic can be a bit dangerous because he gets scared XD)
"I-I can't, it'll blow up!" The magic enveloped his hands and continued swirling dangerously. Lucas was beginning to panic now, which just made the magic grow more and start flashing.

Skye laid his hands over the other's, "Calm down, it's only reacting cause you're panicking…" he said softly in the other's ear, "Just calm down."

"Skye, y-you need to step back!" Lucas quickly moved away before the magic covered his entire body and exploded outwards, knocking over a couple nearby trees. When the dust cleared, Lucas was curled up in the center of it all, terrified.

Skye blinked insurprise, he had whipped up a shield when he sensed the surge in power. "Lucas? Are you alright?" he asked gently, creeping closer to him.

Lucas covered his ears with his hands, closing his eyes as a few tears rolled down his cheeks. "I'm sorry… I-I'm sorry… I'm so sorry…" He whispered, more to himself than anyone else.

Skye carefully pulled the other into his arms again, "Shhh…. there's no need to be upset…" he said softly.

Lucas trembled violently, wanting to get away from Skye for fear of hurting him but not having the strength to do so. "No…" He cried quietly. "I-I'm dangerous…"

"You are not dangerous." said Skye softly, "And I'm not gonna leave you, even if you were."

"D-Didn't you see what I just did to this clearing?" Lucas glanced over at the broken ground and fallen trees.
(And Marco just exists XD)

(He's a plot filler/hole to annoy the stalkers)
Skye nodded, "I know…" he said, "But I'm not going to leave you."

(Lol)
Lucas wrapped his arms around Skye's neck, still crying. "I… t-thank you… I don't deserve that…"

"Yes you do…" he murmured, hugging him.

Lucas began to emit small bursts of pink magic. It didn't seem to really have much effect other than calming Lucas a bit.

Skye hummed, studying the bursts.

(Yaaaay finally magic connected to positive emotions)
Lucas sighed softly, his body relaxing after a little bit. The pink magic faded once this happened.

(YAAAAAAY)
Skye relaxed when the other did, hugging him.

(We don't see a lot of those)
Lucas held his breath for a bit to slow his breathing, which worked well enough. "W-When are we going to get moving again?"

"In a few minutes" said Skye, holding him.

Lucas nodded, laying his head on Skye's shoulder. The explosions of magic drained all of his energy, and he felt like he could hardly move. He knew he'd be sore tomorrow.

Skye held him tightly, but he knew he would let go if the other showed any sign of discomfort.
