The memories of crackling flames, shrieks, mournful yowling and responding jeers build a swirling cacophony around Grace, sparking against the ground until they catch with ghostly flames. Once a target is chosen, the circle darts across to them and grows with the force of the attack. A mentally resilient target might be able to calm themselves and breathe enough to realize that the flames aren't real- and once they do that, the flames lose their power.
This memory comes easy. While the flames still bring some stress, the girls are used to using them to their advantage by now; the anger, in fact, has become part of the fuel to the fire.

Twiggy applies every last bit of a make-up kit to make himself as beautiful as possible over the course of five minutes. The other five minutes are spent sweet talking the target of the repairs, whispering sweet nothings that cause the parts of the machine to come back together as the speech progresses. If the power fails, the machine is done with Twiggy and falls apart-- irrepairable by his words. If it succeeds, it comes back together, good as new. If the target is already functioning but simply needs fuel or energy, this power effectively functions as a "turn on."
