Terra's smile faltered when Aqua practically jumped in place and moved away from him. He'd startled her somehow? He hadn't thought he'd been that quiet walking over. In fact, he was pretty sure he hadn't been quiet at all. She must have really been distracted... But by what? It wasn't as though he'd been trying to sneak up on her and she'd had her nose in a book or been practicing her spell work.

He glanced from her to the pine cone in his hand, confused all over again.

... He'd just have to shake off that feeling a second time then.

"Well," he gave the pine cone a light toss into the air and caught it as it tumbled down, "I don't know about you, but I bet I'd find pine cones a little more interesting on a full stomach."

Snapping his arm back suddenly, he froze in place for the second or two he needed to redirect the flow of energy from the core of his body up into those muscles tensed by the position he'd taken on. With one strong throw, the pine cone was sent skipping across the lake, leaving a narrow, faintly shimmering trail of light in its wake.

Terra brushed off his hands before turning to Aqua, ready to get down to the business of the promised sandwiches.
