Admittedly, it's a surprise when he closes the space between the two of them and she feels his hand giving her arm a gentle squeeze. Looking down at him then, Elsa can't help but mirror his smile. It's ridiculous, the way just a few simple words could affect her, but the fact that they have only makes her appreciate his gesture more. It's so rare that she's understood, much less defended like that, that it just...apparently struck a very emotional chord in her.

While she's still not entirely certain that it's true, that she's not dangerous, her mind not so easily swayed, it's still so nice to know there's at least one person who doesn't view her as such. Who thinks that no one should see her that way.

"Oh--" Blinking as Sans points up and catches the snowflake, she lifts her gaze toward the ceiling. It's bare as ever, and yet snow is falling, which she'd only just barely registered before he pointed it out to her. It's...unintentional, but for once, it's not caused by negative emotions. This has her believing it'll be much easier to bring to a stop, and has her smile widening ever so slightly. It's...been a very long time since anyone ever enjoyed her magic. "No, never. It all just sort of...happened. Any learning I've done, it's been on my own."

"Heh... no shame there. I never got taught, either." Not entirely true, but true enough. He reaches up, catching another flake. It doesn't melt -- no body heat to coax it in that direction -- but rather sits comfortable on the bone until Sans sees fit to brush it away. "Taught my little brother, though. N' I could teach you, if you wanted."

That proposition comes as a shock. So much so that Elsa isn't certain of how to react at first, simply blinks at Sans in surprise.

"You-- You'd do that?" She doesn't know what to say. It's such a kind offer, and one that she appreciates greatly. In fact, she'd very much like to take him up on it, but... "Do you think that you really could? Our powers are... They seem very different."

[skelepun]

"I'm probably not as good a teacher as a Snowdrake would be." He shrugs, seemingly unfazed by that fact. He catches another flake, staring up at the sourceless place they fell from. "But all magic is different. We're not the same person, right? Stands to reason our magic wouldn't be, either."

He shrugs, finally putting his hands back into his pockets.

"I'm up for giving it a shot if you are."

[isdronning]

"I... Yes, I suppose that makes sense," she nods slowly, watching as he tucks his hands away. Surprise fading, a smile spreads in its place and her final nod is a more certain one. It certainly can't hurt to give it a try, and if she can actually get someone to help her with her magic in this way? Well, it's more than she's ever hoped for.

"I'd love to. Thank you, Sans, that's so kind of you to even offer."
