[Irene doesn't get exactly how this could have happened, but she rather likes it, indeed. At least ten years younger and feeling mentally about the same, she grins while looking around her, wondering what to do with all this energy.
Glimpsing Ezio dash by overhead (really, there is no mistaking that outfit), she has some idea of where to start.
There is no way she can follow her teacher precisely (yet), but she can run on the ground, and has a good set of lungs.]
[Irene applauds his fearless antics and the impressive landing. And then she gets a good look at him. Well, wasn't he handsome when he was younger. (...Isn't he- is. Whatever.)]
Salute! You were running with such reckless abandon, I wondered if you would outdistance my call.
Not so much for myself. [Inattention has gotten him into one too many close brushes with death.]
All of that? It takes years of training, bellissima. I have been doing this for many years. [Starting since he was how old with his brother Federico? He cannot remember such thing.]
If our situation on this ship is to be believed, you and I will have many years to work on it together. [So long as a 'wormhole' does not steal one of them away, like it had John. A shadow passes over her face at the thought.]
I cannot say if I truly believe it or not. [And he most definitely has things to finish if ever he can find a way back to Roma. The Apple being with him is not exactly the best of situations for anyone involved.] But if it is as they say, then yes, we have much time together.
So much time, whatever shall we do with ourselves?
[She wanted to run over the buildings the way he had been - it looked so exhilarating! - but she could not resist a flirtatious grin at him. (Yes, her mind was acting a good ten years younger as well.)]
At least some good can come of being on this insane ship in the stars.
And now, seeing as we know this youth will leave us all too soon - we had best exploit it to the full.
[With a wide, mischievous grin she impulsively and boldly gives him a playful, light punch to the shoulder.]
Tag, gentilissimo. Catch me if you can.
[And without hesitation she is running away from him, looking to give him an at least half-decent chase. Her climbing and jumping skills as taught by Ezio were thus-far simple. Being quiet and hiding on the other hand, she had considerably more practice with. Either way, how quickly he caught her would be almost entirely up to him as he was the more experienced.
Spotting a building with windows that would be easy for her to climb, she makes a direct line for it.]

Ezio! Gentilissimo Ezio!

Absolutely. A moment of inattention would be fatal, but that's part of the thrill.
[She looks up at the buildings with an eager expression.]
I look forward to doing what I just saw you do. [Twenty-three or thirty-three, there is no doubt in her mind she will get there.]

And how are you finding your new age, bellissima?

It is the best word I can think for it - this is amazing. However I hear this will only last the week at best, so I intend to enjoy myself.
And how are you finding it, gentilissimo?

I feel... [Stronger? Faster? Invincible? Powerful?] like I did once before. I had not thought I would be as such once more.
