[ piper's communicator clicks on with a scream. ]
— Yeah. I'm going to need a little help over here.
[ frozen — literally — in the air is a thick book piper had accidentally knocked off the table in her room. the book and a good portion of table have been affected by her power. it's ice, crystallised, and is smoking a little as ice would do. ]
Those guys who attacked the party — I got the memo that they could stop powers from working, but can they turn you evil? Because … Eh. [ she's panicking. ] This is bad. This is very, very bad.
[ she is very, very confused, and very, very concerned. the last time she had this power it was very, very bad. ]
I can't help when I'm like this!

Fire is my specialty and my preferred group of spells, but I am capable of others. Ice, lightning, healing. [she shrugs]
Though . . . are you only capable of one spell?

I see . . . ah—let me come up there to help you, before I go into a million questions.

[she cuts the video feed and tucks the tablet into her jacket. The seventh floor isn't too bad of a walk, so she takes the stairs (the elevators scare the crap out of her, to be honest).
It isn't much of a wait, though - ten or so minutes later, there's a knock on Piper's door]
action
Hi. My table is going to be very happy to see you.
action
[she still hasn't quite mastered the tablet or the mousing over things to know what people's names are, so there's that awkward moment where a name should be said, or an introduction should be made . . . until she sees the table.
And looks entirely amused]
Yes, I would think so. Did it get worse, dear?

[she eyes the table again, her head tilting slowly, almost as if she's amazed at the extent of the "damage"] It is not frozen to the floor, is it?
action
[ she glances to it. it looks like it's frozen to the floor, doesn't it? piper wrings her hands together, pulling a face. ] I certainly hope not.

Re: action
[she murmurs something quietly, letting a small fire spell conjure in her hand; the ice begins to melt, slowly]
action
Oh, wow. You weren't lying when you said you were good at this.
action
[even without her attention on her spell, it keeps going, slow, the ice starting to make a small puddle on the floor. She'd deal with that after]
Ah, thank you?

She turns back to focus on the table, finally freeing the leg from floor. She pauses for a moment]
. . . you must miss him, yes?
action
It's just like everyone else in this place. They miss their family. Some are lucky, or unlucky, enough to have someone here with them.
action
Mm . . . I suppose that is true.

And I'm Piper. Just in case you get a note from my furniture thanking you for saving them from me.
