It's true that whilst the coming war did put a time limit on anything they might wish to accomplish before it happened, it also took a rather occupying place in one's mind. Ronin is in the same boat - hence all of this training too, he supposes. So he latches on to the lighter subject of conversation, huffing out a laugh and testing the limits of Gideon's strength before he allows the other man to pin him, shrugging up at him.
"Oh, plenty of powers," he says. He can't even act like it's a brag at this point - it simply is what it is. "None that I could properly show you without hurting you though, I don't think. I can't temper those the same way as I do my fists. If you want to join me for a drink, though, I'll tell you all about it?" It will involve Gideon releasing him though, if he doesn't mind too much.
