I mean, Rime might just be right. Jackie didn't want to think about some 'natural talent' she could have. That thinking was pretentious and filled with an ego unbecoming of her. it wouldn't feel right to pin her proclivity to bursts of strength to that. She saw it more as a struggle now. With very specific reasons behind it. Though the Arcosian being privy to it might not be to her interest. They just met. Nasu would have the same problem when he tried breaking bread in the middle of just meeting and fighting each other. Just came off as tasteless and she wasn't about to spill her life story.
Of course, Rime would get that leg and bash her midsection hard. Sending the young flame flying across the stage. The woman only catching herself near the edge and flipping back to her feet. The Earthling grunts and rubs her stomach as she stands back up straight. She had that fire in her eyes still, despite being so grossly underprepared for this scale of fight. Her reasons?
"Well, you aren't the only one who wished they had this kind of strength earlier in life. I've got my reasons! Plenty, in fact! But do know that one involves finding a murderer and bringing them down!"
That one could be pretty public knowledge at this point. She's grown confident the past month. Confident that she could tango with most any threat an Earthling could threaten her with. She assumed at least. That drive to make sure she crushes someone for something awful made her shine bright, and try to live outside her normal scope of Humanity. Rime didn't need to know it's because he murdered an entire culture of people. Just that the passion was there.
Without missing a beat in battle, the woman would take advantage of the range between the two and create a ball of flame in her hand. Chucking it with a great force at him.
Jackie gets flung back, trying to send a basic non-kp blast at him!
