As the afternoon dragged on and Kat still hadn't seen any sign of movement from the manor house or the sky's signalling Sue's return Kat started to argue with herself over how valid it was she hadn't tested out her new ability. At this point she'd even used her dream fog form a bit to test the drain. Which was still noticeable, but perhaps combat viable now. It drained at about 5% of her reserves per second but with Lily's reserves added in it complicated matters in regards to how viable it was.
Lily's reserves were much smaller than Kat's, but also much closer to Kat's in terms of regeneration. Why that was, Kat wasn't entirely sure but it wasn't something Kat was overly concerned about. The only concern Kat had, was that she'd tested her dream fog… while still wearing the backpack with Lily in it. Lily didn't turn into fog of course, she just dropped straight down and Kat managed to turn back and catch her all without waking the Memphis.
