[ adrien doesn't miss that indirect reassurance. it's for things like that that he's gotten to this point; that he feels comfortable enough with steven to feel like he can trust him with something like this. the corners of his lips twitch just the slightest, and his own smile grows. ]
There's no way I wouldn't introduce you guys. [ two people he thinks very highly of need to meet each other, obviously, so they can both see how cool they are. ] Like I said, I know you'll like her... and I know she'll like you too.
[ maybe it'll be a little awkward at first because of the information he's given steven, but... he knows. ]
[ he's got high expectations for her now, but he doubts that she won't be able to meet them. if she's anything like adrien is, he knows that she'll be more than admirable. ]
Let's move on, then. I'm not too familiar with the "rules" of superheroism, but would it be a stretch to say you have some sort of power?
[ as he asks, aron will waddle to his side of the table to try and reach for his bell with a stubby leg. it looks shiny... can she eat it? please let her eat it. ]

with a nod: ]
It'd be a really good guess. [ does he sound a little proud? maybe. ] I'd... show you what it is, but "destroy anything with a touch" makes for a pretty not-pretty demonstration.
[ okay, maybe she won't eat it, thanks to the Look that steven gives her that says "don't even think about it". but she will play with it a little, curious about the small jingling sound it makes when she pushes it. interesting!
steven has a similar reaction to adrien's words (although without the bell ringing). destroy anything with a touch... that sounds dangerous, but powerful. ]

That's quite an ability to have.
