Nate flashed Aya another smile when she asked him to take care of her body. The smartass in him wanted to make some kind of comment about that but she cut him off by clarifying what she meant. Nate simply held his hands in the air and made a face as though saying "What else would I do?". He half expected her to drop to the sand when she used her powers, thinking that when the mind left the body it could no longer control it. He was clearly wrong though as Aya stood perfectly still as she informed him that she was going to look around.

She was quiet then and Nate simply shrugged and looked confused by what was happening. "I'll just...wait here then." he said as he folded his arms, trailing off as he realized she probably couldn't hear him anymore. Another awkward silence followed and a couple of people wandered past, staring at the stock still Aya and the awkward Nate. "Hi. How you doing?" Nate said to them pleasantly as they went about their own business.
"What's [i]she [/i]doing?" came a voice from behind him. Nate turned to see a duplicate approach holding a coconut drink with a straw and a little umbrella poking out of the top.
The duplicate took a sip of the drink through the straw as Nate responded "Helping. Where did you get that?"
"There's a bar over there" the duplicate informed him with a pleased smile as he tossed a thumb over his shoulder "They've got all kinds of-"
"Well go get [i]me[/i] one" said Nate, cutting the duplicate off mid sentence "And one for the lady too"
The duplicate gave an annoyed [i]Tsk[/i] sound before dropping one shoulder heavily to the ground in a hunchback posture. "Yeth mathter" he groaned with a heavy lisp in his best Igor voice. He then turned and headed back towards the bar, adopting a heavy limp as he went.
"Nailed it!" Nate called after the duplicate. He knew that the clone would maintain the posture the entire way to the bar because that's what he'd do. Commitment to a bit.

When Aya returned to her body, she would find Nate holding two coconut drinks. One in each hand. When she informed him that she had found three Jackson's, pondering that it wasn't supposed to work that way, Nate turned his head to the sky and groaned. "No it's not" he told her "Little brat copied my power" He arched an eyebrow as he thought of something though and mumbled "That's actually pretty impressive". With another sigh he extended his hand towards Aya, offering her one of the drinks before saying "Mind showing me where he...[i]they [/i]are?"
