[The image of one Yang Xiao Long comes up on screen, but for those of her that know her, there's something obviously off about her. What, exactly? The chunk of golden-colored hair that's currently being held in her fist instead of sitting on her head, is what. What's more, Yang looks absolutely pissed.]

Excuse me... [She seethes through gritted teeth] But does anyone know who has a bug familiar with scissors for hands? I'd like to have words with them.

[She takes a deep breath, and then tries to speak more calmly.]

Also, is there anyone out there that can... [she motions to her hair situation] ...help me even this out? I'm new and not sure if there are any hairstylists in this city I can trust just yet.

[Note that there is now a fiery crater in the middle of a street somewhere.]

Oh, sorry, I-- I shouldn't have implied that was all you were capable of.

In all honesty, fire comes easiest to me out of all the elements I've tried so far, so I'm not one to judge.

It's alright.

I've mostly just used fire and ice. I'm used to fighting with elemental dust—that's a thing we have that gives weapons elemental powers—back home, fire especially, so it all came pretty naturally. Plus I have this ability called a semblance, and it gives me a fiery aura, so that may have something to do with why I picked it up so easily.

That's fascinating... I have no prior experiment with any kind of elemental Quirk or ability. I've had to get advice from some of my friends who are also here, whose Quirks dealt with fire and ice. I'm not sure why fire came the easiest to me... Maybe it was just the simplest one to visualize.

I guess we all have our reasons for this coming more easily, if you get right down to it. But visualizing stuff has helped me figure out the other elements, to a degree... or at least, that's how I did it with ice.

Mm, I have always found visualizing your desired outcome to be helpful, even before I got elemental magic.

[justwatchmeburn]

That's good advice for life, honestly.
