[ people have been talking a lot about global warming these days. san francisco isn't the warmest californian city, not when it's on the waterfront and summers still often require a sweater on hand ( lots of tourists make that rookie mistake ). with the polar vortext on the east coast, it wasn't that unusual the first time, but without the cold settling entirely over the entire country, the follow-up freak snow storms require some additional explanation. meteorologists have been scratching their heads.
there is a lot to still uncover, but he doesn't think that's from mat, even though he could sense something unusual about him from the moment they first met.
at least they had been somewhat prepared. that's what milo tells himself as they tear through the busy, crooked streets of this city with mathias finally unlocking those powers milo had only dreamt about. milo's sleepy eyes had widened in wonder as he watched that burst of light from his hands, the way the frost quickly crept up their legs. that had to have been more than enough to stop them but not enough to stop milo from grabbing his hand and pulling him away to safety. it's a shock to the system and he at least has some survival skills hidden deep down. besides, someone has to keep their head while the other is discovering powers.
they can't talk about it now. they have to get to where it's safe which is why he leaves work in the middle of the day and runs up the stairs to his apartment where they both are now comfortable. he slams the door shut behind him, leaning against it with his round cheeks puffed as he tries to catch his breath. it's silent. they both need a moment, mathias more than he. ]
Don't.
[ he exhales, lifting his head up with a half-grin as he pushes himself up off the door to stand on shaky legs. ] You've thanked me enough. [ crossing the room, he lays a hand on the other boy's shoulder, giving it a squeeze. ]
