Danny smiled slightly at the face Arsenal made during his spouting off of proverbial wisdom, though he was careful not to Roy see The young man possessed far better control than might have initially been assumed given that he resisted the obvious impulse to mock the expression. Far better control than Danny had when he first arrived in K'un-L'un as a boy, though Arsenal was much older than he had been then. Perhaps there was more purpose to such odd sayings than merely the enlightening and teasing he had assumed was their purpose. Iron Fist listened patiently while Roy expressed his concerns about not being able to teach the New Titans very much, about how he wasn't really the one for that job and Iron Fist had the wrong person in mind for the task. [b]"Even so, maybe they'll surprise you, or you'll learn something unexpected about yourself. I was once told that in teaching, one learns more than one ever did as a student. As my own teachers were fond of putting it [i]"The student is a mirror reflection of the teacher, and to one who looks upon it rightly a mirror's reflection keeps no secrets'[/i]"[/b] Danny grinned again, this time letting Roy see. [b]"They mostly used to say that as a way to tell me that they'd caught me lying or making mischief and I'm still not entirely sure what it means, but it seems appropriate here too."[/b] Suddenly, something occurred to Danny. Specifically the mischief had caused him to remember that at least one New Titan was skipping out on training today, and if there was any truth to all of this mirror's reflection business, he had a pretty good idea where to find them. [b]"Mind taking over full supervision for the exercise for a minute, Roy? I have a wayward student to look after. I'll be back to continue this conversation very shortly."[/b] Iron Fist walked out of the observation deck and the training arena as a whole and into the elevator while waiting patiently for it to arrive at the Rec room's floor. Tempted as he was to try and just climb the elevator shaft for a workout, there had to be a certain amount of seriousness about him nowadays. Once he got out there seemed to be some kind of big mess in the lobby as if a fight had broken out there, but he would focus on that at a later time. If it was a threat then it seemed to have passed for now and if it was something else, well, he needed the right frame of mind to do what he was about to do and trying to focus on something else might wreck that. So, keeping his mind serene and gentle for however this turned out he knocked on the door to the Rec Room. [b]"Amy? I know you're in there. Can I talk to you please?"[/b]
