The grin on the Storm Queen's face didn't seem to waver, though it was replaced by a bit of shock when her knee didn't find its home in this man's chin and was instead met by his arm. Such a thing was nearly unheard of and she didn't expect any besides maybe Shoichi to be able to keep up with how fast she could perceive movements. But this was a learning exercise so soon enough she was twisting her body to avoid the leg coming up towards her person it would instead be met by the palm of her hand which she'd use to push off and clear the space between herself and Kae. "Fuck! If you wanted some space, I would have just backed off~" she mentioned as she landed still getting used to the feeling of this frozen form.
It was then she was asked a question about the strengths of the rest of the group, if there was even still a group at all. She frowned thinking about it, her memories, even those of more recent events didn't always line up. Of course, she had a reasonable grasp of the fall of their Cyclone Striders team so she had a way of explaining. "On the list of missing and assumed dead were you, Lycielle, Ryohei, and Hiei." she said calmly. "They aren't with us now, and we have no idea if like you they are around and we just don't know it, or if they actually died." she said solemnly before finding a bit of happiness. "The ones of us that stayed or are left are all pretty strong though. I don't know where we stack up right now, most of us are training to get a bit better. From what I can tell, and what I can see... everyone is going to be amazing." she said with a huge grin on her face. Moving right along she remembered that she'd had a question which she'd let leave her head due to what she was asked. "But we can get back to that in a second, how the fuck were you able to react to me, 'cause... that shouldn't really be possible at this point." she said knowing the full extent of her own abilities reacting to her should be a skill for only the most capable of exploiting perception and if there was a way of seeing she didn't have yet, she wanted it.
