Yeah, yeah, see how you like looking at these dumb glasses, buddy. Trusting in someone means focusing your full attention on your own battles, though. He'll turn around if Avan screams, of course, but...
He skims around the waves, providing a good target to chase and keep the elemental's attention while staying out of its five foot reach. It's fast, but Popp is faster, especially when it keeps being slowed by repeatedly having parts of its overall form turn to ice every time he tosses a light Crackle its way. He's trying to save magic power, having used a generous amount failing to harm the crab, and not wanting to emulate both his past self and Mithrun.
"HEY - since when have you been able to use magic?!"
This is a little more legitimately hurtful - that's Popp's specialty, and Avan didn't even ask for help practicing or offer it? Which one of them is better, anyway? There's one way to settle that question, forget trying to hold back! Is the water elemental resistant to fire? Time to find out.

"Kafrizz!"
It isn't.
