HOTARU
The change in direction is obvious enough to her own eyes, keen and well-trained to the arcing nature of lightning. It's a display of power if nothing else, and helps her estimate where exactly Sah is when it comes to reaching his previous levels of mastery with the element. The exertion is clear on his face but all it does is raise him in her esteem. "I see. You're roughly in the middle ground then, as I recall." Comforting him is not something she feels she can do, not being that type of woman for all her kindness. Certainly were she back in his shoes it would feel like a mockery, a cheap comfort at best when delivered from someone who had surpassed that hurdle. "What I did at that stage was create items to generate natural static electricity that I could then amplify and redirect. Different fabrics, metals. Have you considered that?" Hotaru would at least happily supply him with her own ideas in the meantime. Unfortunately the rest all came down to waiting and re-training, like working out a magical muscle.
