His voice, though, is as light as it was before and his hands are in his pockets. He allows a mirthless smile. "Oh, I have seen some people use such things to their advantage. I think I see what you mean." He looks up, eyes tracking heavenward but not quite seeing. There's still tension in the air, but it's heavy and still now. "Fire and ice and earth. I see."
