First District

Francesca
She laughed a bit. "What, you wouldn't make a deal with lil ol me? You aren't getting any younger. If you were half the fighter you were when we battled, you would have crushed this whole district nonsense in an afternoon. Now you're letting children play with toys that could turn this city into a crater."
The illusionist reached over to poke him, her magic seeking to take grasp and begin a transformation.

A pair of chopsticks intercepted Francesca Prelati's fingers most abruptly before they could reach him. "It is the duty of one's elders not to cling overly long to life. But then, you never did believe in duty, did you?"
Umbra of Chaos:
Francesca
She stuck her tongue out at him but there was a dark look in her eye. "You don't think that'd actually fool me, do you? You've been clinging onto life for the past centuries I bet. If you really wanted to let go then it wouldn't be your wrinkly face that I'd be seeing right now, would it? You haven't found anyone worthy yet. So let's talk about options." Francesca strained her finger under the grasp of the wooden utensils with a smile on her face.
"Come on, just let me touch. I promise it'll be fun~! No toad transformations for you. I can't even do that anymore."
Aiden:
Yamada
"If I made it that easy for you, then you would lose all interest." He pushed back further with the chopsticks, a flow of chi moving through the wood and sustaining their inexorable press against the fingers of Francesca Prelati. "And yet, despite the appeal of the idea, I have no interest in doing that either. Have you already forgotten my long lectures, Miss Prelati?"
He grinned.
"Never seek power that is not your own."

Francesca
Her zipper was still open. Soon the slithering tendrils were wrapping around her digit, merging together and pushing down with even greater strength. "Not everyone gets their kicks sitting on a mountain all day for years. Besides, this would be your power. Come on, would you really let things settle as they are if you were young and spray again? Give the legs and arms a good stretch before knocking the brats' sandcastles over? You didn't kill me for this, did you?"
