Rhona looked at Stephen a bit perplexed at his question of what her…..”Interests?”, that was not something she had been asked. She cocked her head to the side.
“What are interests? I can do things that don’t involve hurting people? I’d like to see your interests first before I decided on my own.”
She walked over as calmly as she could because she wanted to learn what interests were before she made a solid decision on what she should have for hers.

He wasn't bothered by Rhona's decision to not get loaded. "It's cool." Though if she had, Stephen was welcome to come along, he had some concerns, but he might've found some fun in it.
While trying to think of other things they could do, Stephen asked her about her interests, which, like with the concept of the Beer Run, she did not understand.
"Well...they'd be things you like or are curious about. Like I've seen you watch that whorsie show a few times and you seemed pretty invested in it."

"He's right." Stephen replied to Ryuusei. "Though I wouldn't say it's necessarily things you are curious about, but rather things that catch your attention, that you keep going back to. Some of mine, for example: I enjoy doing puzzles, like sudoku, jigsaw puzzles, and others. I like how I really have to think to solve them. Plus it helps to keep my mind sharp. I also like to study electricity and magnetism so that I can better understand and utilize my abilities. I suppose a person's interests are things that make them happy or joyful, things that bring them enjoyment." Stephen said as he nodded to himself.

Rhona looked at Stephen rather perplexed and actually scratched her head. Her eyes lit up and she looked at Stephen.
“Ooooooh! Things I like to do! Well let’s see. I like the screen with the ponies as Ryuusei said. They are nice. I like the kitchen because the proteins aren’t bland and there are carbohydrates that are delicious. I have found a book that tells me how to make good food. The library is fun. I’ve heard of this place called the Danger Room where you can fight…………I want to do that!”
She looked at Stephen and wondered if he liked the forest.
“Sometimes Logan takes me to the forest to help me align my seishin-tekina enerugī or energy. He says the forest is quiet so allows me to align my energy. I really like that.”
She smiled and waited to see if anyone else liked the forest.

"The forest is a great place to go if you want some quiet, or just to get away from the busyness of the city." Stephen responded.
"The danger room is great for practice, though we ought to get permission to use it first." he continued, "With everyone who's here, I believe we'd have to schedule a time to use it...though I'm not entirely sure who'd we need to speak with about that."

"So you do your own cooking then." Unless she meant she just liked reading the book...which too counted as an 'interest'.
Talk of the Danger Room made him shudder. "Ugh, I'll pass..." Then explained what had happened earlier; that he was going to work out, when he found Cheris had wandered in and was just pressing buttons. She nearly got herself killed, having turned things up too high. "Kinda want to avoid that happening again."
And then she mentioned Logan taking her to the forest. "So you guys meditate then? That's usually where I go to train, well there or the mountains..just where there aint people around."

Rhona looked at Stephen and thought that was right but not the only reason Logan took her there. He had come upon her throwing a tantrum and breaking a piece of machinery that you’d have to blow up.
“He caught me getting ready to throw at least 400 lbs at the wall because I was mad. So he said until I master my energy I can’t play in there.”
She wondered why if they didn’t allow her in there how this Charis person got in there. She figured it was something strange had happened, like her being found in the woods in wreckage. That was pretty strange.
“It’s nice. We sit there and let the forest soak into us and let it slow my mind down. It’s very fun. I get to feel peace.”
She thought about what Ryuusei’s said just shrugged.
“Guess they need to tighten security at this Danger Room. If she can get in then imagine what would have happened had you not been there. I think they say clean up on aisle eight.”

Stephen chuckled, "Yeah, the danger room controls are not where you want to press buttons willy-nilly." he replied to Ryuusei. "While it only creates holograms, they can be set to a level where they can actually injure you. So yeah, best to have someone who knows what they're doing at the controls."
"So the forest and mountains are your meditative/peaceful places, huh? I suppose, my favorite place to meditate would be out in a thunderstorm. For me, I get to feel all the electric energy in the air and I feel as though I'm one with the storm's energy. I can't really think of a proper way to explain exactly how it feels."
Stephen held his palm upwards and created sparks between his fingers, "It's like I'm reaching out, and the electric energy is reaching back." he says as he brings up his other hand, creates sparks from it, and then the energy from each hand arcs together.

The image of Rhona chucking the machinery made him laugh. "Hey, if you want, we could always go into the mountains and you can toss boulders around. Might give you a good workout."
400 lbs, hmmm? With some effort he might be able to lift something that heavy, but not throw it. That would require quite a bit of bulking up, but throw off the balance of everything else.
After hearing Stephen talk about meditating in a thunderstorm, he had to wonder. "You ever been struck by lightning?"

"Struck by lightning? Oh yeah, all the time. But only when I want it to." Stephen replied with a big grin.

Stephen's response gave him a good laugh! "Man you got some brass ones!" ...Though in this case, maybe that wasn't such a good thing?
"But that wasn't a dig or anything, I just kinda know the feeling." He was reminded of when he was first learning his 'Raijinken' technique. He would practice in a lightning storm, and things could get...quite painful.
...But, it was totally worth it as he balled up his right hand. sparks surrounding it.

When he saw the sparks coming from Ryuusei's fist, he opened his palm and began pulling the electric energy to his own hand. "You're the only other person, besides Storm, that I've met that can use electricity in some way." Stephen said.

Rhona perked up at the fight that was developing, she didn’t agree with lightning inside.
“Gentlemen….I think you need to not do this lightning inside. It could cause issues with those of us that can’t do lightning. Let’s not do that. I don’t want to be struck by lightning again. It’s not fun.”
She was not sure they would listen but someone had to stop people from wrecking the place. She liked it here.

"Oh, don't worry, I've no reason to fight anyone here. And I don't want to mess the place up either." Stephen said to Rhona.
"I just get really interested when I meet someone who can also manipulate electricity in some way."
Stephen walked over to the exit. "Well, we're not gonna use the danger room, so there's no point in hanging around here any longer. Is there somewhere else you'd like to check out, or do?" he asked.
