There are always a few unexpected surprises in life and that's what makes life more interesting. Like you think, you understand something better only to be surprised by it afterwards.
The same thing was currently happening with me as I saw a bright green flame coil around my arm like a maiden in love, clinging to me with the desperate affection of something that didn't know what boundaries were.
This was my affinity.
Arcane Jestfire.
Its description had been simple enough: I could control its heat and shift it however I wanted.
What it failed to mention, though, was the clingy, obsessive and borderline tsundere personality of the damn thing.
I was crouched beside the rubble that blocked the only exit, thinking that if I could melt my way through, maybe, just maybe, I could still reach my investment in time.
But the moment I summoned the flame and willed it toward the rubble, it wrapped itself tighter around my arm like an overprotective lover.
