He took the scanner off anyway, then grinned.
"Nah. You made it apparent you didn't want to, and I don't want to force you. I'll get you to show me sometime. Maybe in a spar."
He proceeded to look out the window, speaking quietly over his shoulder as he did so.
"You know....you remind me of old videos of my dad. Standoffish. A little coarse. Rough around the edges."
He decided he liked her.

Boys. She gave a sort of disgruntled hum and wound her power level back down, shifting uncomfortably. Maybe in a spar, yes, maybe. Not entirely likely, but maybe...
"...oh..?"

He would turn back to her.
"Yeah. I don't even know the guy but I guess I kinda miss him."
He would float back down and lean against the cave wall.
"What were your parents like?"

"...hmm, that makes sense..."
Aisuko blinked a little and stared for a few long moments at his question.
"Well..." Her voice was flat. "I'm not sure I want to go into that."

He stared. He would give a gentle smile.
"Okay."
He would finish tightening the clasps on his clothes, taking his scanner back and putting it on before zipping up his back and sighing, forearms resting on top of his thighs as he crouched.
"I guess....I'll just go then. You don't seem overly fond of me, outside your curiosity. I don't want you to hit that point where you want to leave but just can't, so, I'll go for you."
And he would pick up his pack and start walking toward the back of the cave, away from the entrance. Obviously, there was another way in, and he intended to use it.

He smiled. And then got up. And then said he would leave. The only thing that jumped through her mind was the approximation of 'what the fuck'. He was strange and this entire thing was getting on her nerves, as was his meek exit. Her tail twitched and writhed a little on her lap, and as soon as he was out of sight it flung itself from her lap to lash along the floor.
She had better breeding than this.
Was she just going to let him leave and take her for some mannerless...alien to the planet? She grit her teeth and let loose a hiss, frustration and irritation getting the better of her. She stayed rigidly still - tail aside - for a few moments longer. Then she shifted to a knee and powered through the crawl space, coming to an abrupt halt outside to shoot straight up and spin in a circle, looking. He probably wasn't foolish enough to fly above the trees.
Probably.

She would find him in a small clearing a little ways off, pulling a sweater on over his gear. He hadn't even noticed her, but he was thinking about her. How it must be on a new world. He just...didn't get why she seemed so cold. And why he grated her nerves. He looked back toward the caves, still not seeing her, before looking down at his pack and letting out a little sigh, sadly.
He would start off north.

She stilled as she spotted him, floating closer, and the icejin found she was confronted with another choice. To call out might be proper but it felt like she would be weak. Pride demanded she go after him but pride also demanded to do so from a position of strength.
So.
Aisuko held a hand over her head and formed a small ball of ki; it immediately shattered to careen and pepper his back.
It wasn't meant to harm. Just to make him aware.
Her aura flared as she released restrictions on her power level once again with a hissed inhale. She gave him a second to turn, her fingers calmly extended towards him, before she burst forward!
Her arm flung to the side, whips of ki stretching out in a lashing blow.

He stumbled forward several steps from the blow, forces to roll forward as small singe marks appeared on his back. He bared his teeth, noticing the female finally. What the hell? Why was she attacking him? He tossed his bag off to the side before firing two Ki blasts at her from each arm, one at a time. He used them as a distractor before leaping back planting a foot on a tree and bursting upward, aiming to tackle her out of the sky, spin and throw her into the ground.
His own restrictions were gone. He shouted.
"The HELL is your problem?"

His distraction worked! She grunted at the collision and whipped her tail around to unbalance him and diminish the momentum of the throw, enabling her to spiral a little. Flinging her arms out and using her tail for additional stability.
"Fight me."
It was said without heat, but the words were curt.

He stared at her like she was an insane person, eyebrows coming down.
"Tch."
He tore off the shirt, revealing his armor again. He would drift down, his heart pounding. She could be way stronger than him. Perhaps he would be barking up the wrong tree but, since she seemed rather eager, he supposed he only had one choice.
"Fine."
He would burst forward, rocks cracking under his feet as he rocketed toward her. He would aim a sharp right punch for her left cheek, aiming to surprise her and take her off her feet.

He accepted.
That was good.
Aisuko shifted as he burst down towards her, and slid sideways with a spin, leaving her tail to do the work of smacking him into the ground before she bolted sideways, using the lashing attack with her ki as she came out of the turn, aiming to keep him down.

He was cracked into violently, taking the blow and sent skittering. He flipped into all fours, looking up as she fired. His eyes widened, and he began powering up. The massive buildup in his muscles He crossed his arms and took the blast head on, his skin burning as the ground under him cracked and forced him back. He cried out....then pushed his arms forward violently. His hands grasped the Ki and he shouted at the top of his lungs.
"OKARA BOMB!"
A massive ball of purple energy blasted against hers and sent BOTH flying back toward her!

Aisuko gasped and flung an arm up, just managing to cross it over as the two blasts collided, and his overpowered hers, and both were flung back at her.
Blown back into a whirling spiral, she managed to straighten herself, nerves and skin singed and singing.
Panting a little, she passed her hands over the worst of the burns with a slight hiss, giving them just enough to prevent them from hampering her ability to fight, watching him. Then, if she had time, she would throw a hand up to leave one for a guard, and a ball of ki formed above her.
"HAILSTORM!"
A barrage of four blasts zipped from the main ball, their target: Okara.

His eyes widened. Son of a bitch. He would cross his arms again, this time calling out "Dionisis Times two!" before darting to the side and rocketing toward her. He still took a hit, however. From his little field, there was no way he was dodging all four. It hit him in the shoulder, cracking his armor, burning his neck and dislocating his shoulder. With his left hand her aimed a swift left punch followed by a right kick, his arm hanging useless for now. Then he'd throw out the left hand and fired another Ki blast, nameless and a dark purple.
'Fuck....she's strong...'
