				The day had started like any other except for the fact that today was the first day of school. A fresh new start for some, a continuation of the year before for others. The sakura trees leading to the entrance of the school were in full bloom and there was an air of optimism in the air. However, hidden behind that optimism was also hesitance and fear for this year was different than the others. This year, the super powered individuals called Abnormals would be attending the school with normal people, called Normals. For many years, Abnormals and Normals were split up; Abnormals had their own specialized facilities where they were monitored closely. Society was afraid of these super powered individuals and it didn't help that there were violent Abnormals stirring up trouble either. <br><br>After being persecuted and alienated from society for so many years, a political change was all it took to abolish the societal barriers between Abnormals and Normals. Abnormals were legally allowed to work with Normals, though there were still some difficulties among some businesses that found excuses not to hire Abnormals. It went to show that even if the government decides to be progressive, some people could still resist change. More importantly, these changes allowed for Abnormal kids to go to the same schools as Normal kids. The reasoning was that if schools could teach kids at a young age to be tolerant of Abnormals, the whole country could take steps to mend what they had done to Abnormals for many years. <br><br>Today would start with the Student Body start-of-the-year address which has been a tradition at Denai Academy for years. It starts with the Headmaster addressing the students, informing new students about school policies and expectations and reminding returning students of their responsibilities as Denai Academy students. However, this year will be different since there was going to be an additional Headmaster and that the Abnormals would have to be properly addressed. <br><br>Right now, students are gathering and sitting down in the gymnasium. As soon as it seemed that every seat was taken, meaning every student was in attendance. Soon all the lights except the ones on stage dimmed and on the stage, a towering old man with monstrous physique comes in from right stage and takes his place on the podium, placing his cane against it and looking out to the crowd of sitting students...<br><br><hr><br><div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/ZkyaFfm.jpg)</div> <strong>Name:</strong> Ichiya Hideaki<br><strong>Location:</strong> Stage in the Gymnasium<br><strong>With:</strong> The entire student body<br><br>Ichiya looked out to the sitting students, their visible youth bringing a smile to his face. He spoke with an authoritative, yet welcoming tone, <strong>"Welcome, esteemed students, to Denai Academy. I am Ichiya Hideaki, your headmaster. For some of you, this will be your first year here and I realize that it might be daunting or you might feel that you'll never get used to a school like this."</strong> He chuckled slightly, a knowing smile appearing on his face, <strong>"Believe it or not, even I felt like that when I attended this school. My own grandfather was the headmaster of the school so I had some heavy expectations to boot. However, it is not impossible to succeed and have fun at the same time! What is youth if you do not have a little fun when you can?"</strong> The old man cleared his throat, <strong>"Still, as students of this school, you represent the academy and its values. Remember that as you go into the city."</strong><br><br>He paused to let his words sink in before continuing, <strong>"Now onto some of rules and policies of the school. First of all, let's discuss basic rules for all students."</strong> Ichiya took a sip of the water that had been prepared beforehand before continuing, <strong>"Everyone is expected to be in class on time. Denai Academy takes attendance very seriously. Anyone late without good reason gets two chances and every time after the second, your grades in the classes you miss take a hit. Though, I'm not worried about that since I trust you all came to this school knowing its strict rules and curriculum prior to coming here."</strong> He took another sip of water, continuing, <strong>"As for those living on campus, you're free to make your own meals or get them from the cafeteria. Breakfast starts at 7AM and goes until 10AM, lunch starts at 12PM and goes until 2PM, and dinner starts at 6PM and goes until 9PM. Curfew on school nights is 11:30PM, anyone violating curfew will get detention. Curfew on the weekends is not enforced but it is highly encourage that you do not stay out late, especially in the city since the bus service going from the academy to the city and back ends at 11:30PM. You have been warned."</strong> <br><br>The old man scratched his beard, gathering his thoughts for a few seconds, and then continued, <strong>"Returning students, all of you have already heard this and for some of you this will be the last time you'll hear this. My hope is that you continue to exhibit this school's values as you all already have been doing."</strong> His head turned towards where the Abnormals were all grouped together, he smiled, <strong>"And don't think I've forgotten about you, our new students. You will all certainly add a different dynamic to this school, it will be interesting. However, you are not under my jurisdiction! Instead there is a second headmaster who is going to be taking care of you all."</strong> The old headmaster stretched, grabbing his cane, <strong>"I believe it is time to make my exit and let her do her job. Once again, I welcome you all to Denai Academy."</strong> And with that, he walked off the stage to the left and took his seat among the rest of the faculty. It was at this time that the entire gymnasium went dark and it was difficult to see. When the lights on the stage turned back on, there she was, the new headmistress in charge of the Abnormals.<br><br><br><br><div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/5wCDkh2.png)</div> <strong>Name:</strong> Ritsuko Tsutsumi<br><strong>Location:</strong> Stage in the Gymnasium<br><strong>With:</strong> The entire student body<br><br>There she was, suddenly behind the podium, a slender, mysterious woman with long silky black hair. Her mouth was covered by an intricate black hand fan but one could almost tell that Ritsuko was smiling just by looking at her eyes. It was an amused sort of smile as she looked at the confused stares on some of the students faces. It wasn't long after that she started to speak, her sultry tone amplified by the microphone, <strong>"Hi~! My name is Ritsuko Tsutsumi and you already know that I'm going to be in charge of the Ab- oops, we're not supposed to use that word,"</strong> she giggled before continuing, <strong>"Anyways, I've never done this sort of thing before, so I wouldn't know what to say. It seems like the old man said everything there was <em>to</em> say."</strong> Ritsuko had finally removed the fan from in front of her mouth, revealing her mischievous smile. She closed the fan and put it underneath her chin, feigning to be in thought, <strong>"Hmm... Well, let's all get along shall we? Powers or no powers, we're all in the same school now. Bye for now~!"</strong> The lights went off and back on again, and she was no longer behind the podium or even in the gymnasium. She had simply... vanished.<br><br><br><hr><br><br><div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/kWaEzNW.jpg)</div> <strong>Name:</strong> Kiyoshi Hideaki<br><strong>Location:</strong> Stage in the Gymnasium<br><strong>With:</strong> The entire student body<br><br>Kiyoshi sighed and shook his head after Tsutsumi-sensei's theatrics were finished. How were the Abnormals going to survive in this school with such a sporadic, irresponsible headmistress? He genuinely felt pity for them, it would seem that his year would be especially busy, picking up the slack. Kiyoshi was already mentally preparing himself for the year, but first he had his address to make to the rest of the students. He got up from his seat he had on stage and walked over to the podium. Once there, he looked at all the students and then over to the area where the Abnormals were sat. He would definitely have a busy year.<br><br>Kiyoshi cleared his throat and began to speak, his voice authoritative like his grandfathers but also oozing confidence, <strong>"Welcome all to Denai Academy. I am your Student Council President, Kiyoshi Hideaki. It is my duty to make sure that everyone follows the rules and regulations of this school, but it is also my duty to make sure that every student feels welcome at Denai Academy. The Student Council organizes events, sets the budget for every club, takes requests for new clubs, and makes sure that the students have a voice to how things are done at the school, within reason of course."</strong> His job at the Student Council was never easy and required a lot from him, but this year, he felt even more so. While the headmasters only dealt with one group or the other, Kiyoshi had to regulate both the Normals and the Abnormals. <br><br>He stepped out of the podium and went to the front of the stage. He continued to speak, this time louder since he wasn't using the microphone at the podium to amplify his voice, his tone and facial expression turning serious, <strong>"Let me say this now, I will not tolerate any discrimination from anyone, powers or no powers. Here at Denai Academy, everyone is allowed the same and equal experience, and I will not stand for anyone that ruins the experience for either group."</strong> Kiyoshi composed himself and moved back to the podium, <strong>"Remember that today class is cut short to allow new students more time to browse and join clubs. Anyone that wants to ask me questions can do so after classes in my office. Let's all have a great year. That is all. You are all dismissed to go to class."</strong>

				<div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/wJe2bI4.jpg?2)</div><strong>Name:</strong> Megumi Shika<br><strong>Location:</strong> Gymnasium Seating<br><strong>With:</strong> Ichiya, Ritsuko, Kiyoshi<br><br>With tentative steps and weak thumps, a pale young woman made her way to the auditorium. The source of the soft tapping was the cane in her hand, secured to her wrist with a lanyard. Quietly, she used it to explore the path ahead and safeguard herself from obsticles. Her progress was slow, and her probing with her cane was exceedingly gentle. Whenever the walking stick came into contact with anyone, regardless of how soft the touch, the girl gave a hasty, yet sincere apology under her breath. Since the area was populated, she had to apologize often.<br><br>Her eyes were nowhere to be seen. Beneath her long, platinum locks of silky white hair a thick, white mask obscured her vision entirely. While a blind woman might wear sunglasses to shield sensitive eyes, this was something different. Unlike the other students, this woman didn't need a colored card to tell people what she was; her blindfold said it all. <br><br>She was Abnormal.<br><br>As the stepped into the Auditorium, the girl had little idea of where to go next. The seating arrangement was a new addition to the room. She couldn't navigate it without help. Eventually, through a few quiet, nervous questions, she was able to locate a teacher able to guide her to the Abnormal seating. Drawing her cane close to her, the girl kept herself as she sat, waiting for the welcoming ceremony began.<br><br>She heard Icheya's voice first. It brought a small smile to her face. She hadn't heard his voice in a good while. She didn't know the patriarch of the Hideaki family well, but she had seen him in passing before seeing became an effort for her. Next was the new Headmaster; Miss Tsutsumi. Upon first impression, something about the woman sounded... off? She was unable to see the woman's theatric entrance, but her speech struck her as strange for a headmaster. Who on earth could make a speech in front of all these people without an ounce of preparation? <br><br>Finally, there was a voice the girl could never forget. It was Kiyoshi! The young man's voice made her sit upright, listening intently. She didn't been expect to hear him so soon! Apparently he was the Student-Council President!? Megumi had no idea he was doing so well. She smiled softly, glad that he was doing so well. After class, she reminded herself to at drop by his office. She wasn't sure what she'd say, but she had to meet him again!<br><br>And, just like that, the Ceremony was over. Megumi would take a while to ensure the hall was empty before leaving herself. She didn't like forcing her way through crowds.<br>

The new school year hadn't even started, but a morning run around the field was part of his daily routine. It was better suited for running than the city streets, and here, half an hours walk from town, the air always seemed cleaner, fresher. The sky was just beginning to brighten a little, but the darkness didn't bother him. He knew the track, could make out enough details to see that there would be no unexpected obstacles. That was enough for him and he liked the solitude the very early morning offered just fine.<br><br>He stuffed his jacket into his bag, re-tied his trainers and the drawstring of his sweatpants, began a few warm-up exercises. After a few minutes he was on the track and began to run at a steady pace he knew he could keep up for his usual half hour of morning exercise. Soon his feet had settled into their rhythm and he forgot the world around him, shut down his mind and let his body do its thing. This early in the day there was hardly ever anyone around. He could just run, build up his fitness without having to think about anyone or anything. <br><br>The only thing he paid attention to was counting his laps around the field. Twenty laps were his goal for his morning runs – eight kilometers. But by the end of the school year he hoped to get to ten kilometers on a regular basis. But not today. Today just getting back to his old form after two weeks visiting his parents and not getting much regular exercise would have to do.

Without giving it much thought, she crossed the room quietly and picked up her gym bag. She opened the door without making a sound as she slung the bag over her shoulder, not wanting to wake up her roommate. The halls of the dorm were silent and still, and she made her way across the campus on her way to the gym's locker room without encountering anyone. As she walked a little breeze played with her hair, tugging at it lightly, encouraging her to just jump up and join it in a game of tag. She laughed and said, "Not this time... I remember what you did to my skirt last time."<br><br>Ever since her powers expressed themselves the winds had been whispering stories of all she was missing by being so under the thumb of those with power over her. Once in the locker room she slipped out of her uniform and hung it up carefully in a locker before changing into the flying costume that had been provided to her. As she admired herself in a mirror she found she liked the color scheme, having always had a fondness for orange and black, but seeing how much of her body was on display she blushed a deep crimson. She wished they'd designed it more modestly, but an stray bit of wind played with the streamers flowing from her arms making her smile a bit. She could see how they'd help her read the winds and make corrections as she flew.<br><br><div class="floatright">(http://oi63.tinypic.com/10x95wk.jpg)</div>Leaving through the door marked, 'Track,' Shimuza left the building and stepped out into the field. She giggled as the wind pulled insistently at her, no longer brooking delay. A heartbeat later she was rising into the sky spinning and dancing with the wind that loved her so much. THIS was freedom, this was her joy, feeling untethered to the earth and all her cares, flying above it all feeling indomitable.<br><br>All things come to an end, so as the sun rose and it got closer to the time when the day would begin at the Academy, Shimuza's thoughts got heavy. Dread started filling her heart as she thought of the new school year beginning, all the students she'd be surrounded by and wondering what ugliness lurked in them about the Abnormals that would be in their midst. She sighed as she descended, leaving the clouds behind to approached he ground. Her thoughts blinded her to where she was going, and honestly, she expected the track to be empty. The wind though knew Taro was out their running the track and thought, 'Shimuza needs a friend'. 'Helpfully' it gusted as she was about to land, distracted by her fears, throwing her in the runner's path figuring that would make them 'have' to meet.<br>

If anything it was welcome, cooled him off a little. Nothing wrong with a little wind when the sweat had begun to form on his face and in his hair. He was thinking a moment about hitting the shower soon, looked forward to it, now that he was almost done with his running.<br><br>Then he saw – someone. Right in his path. Obstacle. Girl. What the?<br><br>Taro's feet suddenly tried to do two things at the same time – stop and run around her. The result was a predictable stumbling, tripping over his own feet. It were only the reflexes from long years of Aikido training that saved him from making a complete fool of himself. His reflexes kicked in and turned what could have been a face-first crash into a twist in midair followed by a tumble that brought him to the edge of the track.<br><br>"What the..." He came up on one knee and looked over his shoulder. His jaw dropped. "I must be dreaming," he muttered.<br><br>Pink hair blew in the breeze that toyed with the streamers of the girls costume. The morning light added its own shades of orange and red to that costume and made her look more like a flame than a girl. A flame that showed a lot of skin, so perhaps she was really a girl. A cute girl at that.. <br><br>He definitely had to be dreaming. That girl looked more like someone out of a movie or superhero comic than real. Maybe he had started to dream while awake, thanks to all the short nights he had pulled. Yep, that had to be it. Exhaustion and lack of sleep catching up with him. Only that he had no clue why he would be dreaming up that costume, or the pink hair. <br><br>"Where in buddha's name did you come from?"

She didn't realize she was on a crash course with him until she was almost upon him. As he twisted and tumbled to avoid a stumble, she eeped as she tried to avoid him as she landed. This resulted in her feet slipping out from under her and her crashing to the ground, wincing at the pain of her landing. She didn't quite cry, but her eyes watered as she looked up at the slack jawed fellow. "I'm sorry, so sorry, it's all my fault," she stammered quickly, bowing her head in obeisance to him. The wind plucked at her pink hair, making it waft about her head prettily as she made her abject apology. <br><br><div class="floatright">(http://oi64.tinypic.com/2zs46js.jpg)</div> Shizuma was utterly unaware of the sight she presented in the warm light of the rising sun, but when she looked into Taro's eyes she saw something in his eyes that made her blush a little as his gaze on her lingered. Nervously casting her eyes to the ground again, she ran a hand through her hair, tucking a stray lock of it back behind her ear. His question made her look up again and smile wanely saying, "I was playing among the clouds and didn't pay attention as I came in for a landing. Sorry." Her tone was light and warm, and a little, self-conscious smile played over her lips as she looked at him still sitting on her tush on the ground. "Sorry to interrupt your run. Are you ok?" She asked with a gentle kind of concern in her voice.

That did sound like he was dreaming, but if he did, she would probably be floating a few centimeters above the ground and would have said something like 'you are our only hope, Taro Ikeda', before whisking him away to some spaceship. <br><br>No, if this were a dream she wouldn't look so crestfallen at the mishap. So she was probably telling the truth, which began to make some sense, now that he thought about it. Her outfit still didn't make much sense to him, but the girl looked so sorry about the whole situation that he began to pay more attention to her voice and expression. "I'm fine. Better question is, are you okay?" He asked with some concern in his voice. <br><br>Taro pushed himself up and ran a hand through his hair, crossed the short distance between them, and offered his hand to her, only to withdraw it briefly, to wipe his hand on his trouser leg. Extending his hand again he put on a small smile. <br><br>"Let me help you up." Yep, she was just a girl, now that he paid a little more attention, ran her voice through his head again. And a rather embarrassed girl it seemed, blaming herself for a small, simple accident. That wasn't right. <br><br>"I'm Taro, by the way. Taro Ikeda. You must be one of the new students, I guess, miss...?"

His shift in focus, from her body to her voice put her at ease, as did the care in his voice. "Yes, I'm ok. Just clumsy, I guess," she admitted easily in a matter of fact tone. She smiled at him and reached for his hand, then frowned a little when he drew it back fearing that although he seemed nice he was in fact just messing with her. Eyeing his extended warily she took it and accepted his help to her feet.<br><br>"Thank you so much," Shizuma said softly, bashfully accepting his assistance and kindness. "I am new here, like the other Abnormals, Mr. Ikeda, I'm Shizuma Nori. Have you been going to Denali Academy long?" She asked quietly, standing near Taro without yet letting go of his hand. Her touch is warm and gentle and her hands are dainty and delicate. "Oh, sorry," she murmurs and then slips her hand out of his and blushes more then a little bit

The blush, the gentle touch of her hand... She appeared rather vulnerable all of a sudden.<br><br>He bowed his head. "Pleased to meet you, Shizuma Nori. And please, Mr. Ikeda is my father. I am just Taro, if you'd like." Birefly he looked around, spotting his bag about a hundred meters away. Gesturing towards it he asked, "Walk me me a few meters? Running always leaves me thirsty and I'd like to get some water from my bag if you don't mind? We can still talk."<br><br>Taro took a few steps in the direction he had indicated, before he realized that he had yet to answer a question himself. "This will be my second year at Denai. It's a good school, so I hope you'll like it here. And if you have any questions about the school, ask away. I'd be happy to try and answer the best I can." He offered her a wide honest smile, and a nod that he hoped would be encouraging.

She was VERY aware of the casual self-assurance her carried himself with and the general air of strength about him. Without giving it a second's thought, Shizuma found herself trusting him as he instructed her how she should address him. "Thank you, Taro-san," she said, attaching the honorific in order to not appear too presumptively familiar with him.<br><br>"Hai, Taro-san. Oh, did I end your workout for you early? Forgive m intrusion," Shizuma said softly, favoring him with an imploring glance as she asked for absolution from him. Bobbing her head 'yes', she accepted his offer both to walk together and talk, thinking better of telling him she could have asked the wind to bring his bag over to him.&nbsp; As he hadn't given any indication about his feelings for Abnormals she decided to be cautious and not risk freaking him out with her powers.<br><br>"Ee, yes, I like it much better then the institution I'd been assigned to after the wind started... um... where I was sent after I... changed," Shizuma shared with Taro, stumbling when she spoke of the thing that made her an Abnormal. The earnestness in his smile made her fears dissipate and gave her the confidence to add, "I missed being in a real school,&nbsp; with real kids rather then guards and doctors. "It may seem silly, but the last time I wore a school uniform was back home... and I missed it," she admits with a crooked, shy, almost goofy smile on her lips. Though her sentence leaves it ambiguous of she's talking about being homesick or that she missed wearing a uniform

Two or three laps more or less won't make a difference, and till school starts I have all day to go for another run. Don't worry." <br><br>It was nice to see her smile, he decided, especially after mentioning something that must have been very hard for her. Taro hadn't made many friends in middle school, but when his parents decided he needed a break and went traveling with him, Taro had missed at least a few people quite a bit.<br><br>"Well, you'll be back in uniform soon." His own smile was a bit crooked too. He had trouble imagining her in a school uniform. Her current outfit was just too remarkable to sum up a mental image of something else in its place. <br><br>When they reached his bag he dug out a towel and draped it over his shoulder while he searched for a bottle of water. He had just begun to screw off the cap when he realized how impolite he was being. His hand vanished in the bag again and came out a moment later with another plastic bottle. "Want some?"<br><br>After giving Shizuma a moment to accept or decline the offer, Taro opened his own bottle and took a few small sips, then ran the towel briefly through his hair and over his face. <br><br>"And no, I don't think its silly to miss home and all the small, normal ... average things. I mean you had no say in gaining powers or not, right? Must have been hard to be taken away from home for something that wasn't your fault." He sighed, shook his head at the world at large. "Good thing the special schools were abolished."

I found three of them in my room when I arrived. Their fit was perfect," Shizuma admitted to Taro with a happy smile on her lips. She nodded yes gratefully and reached for the offered water bottle. As she took ahold of it her fingers brushed against his lightly in a that was almost a caress. This brought a pink hue back to her cheeks as Taro ran the towel through his hair and over his face. She hoped that kept him from noticing her flushed face as she listened to what he was saying.<br><br>"No, I would never have chosen this fate," Shizuma said in response to him. A heavy sigh accompanied her words and both mixed&nbsp; with the wind in a disharmonious way. It grew into a growling pop like an angry crack of thunder that unsettled Shizuma. She held up her hands in a gesture that begged the wind's pardon as she said, "I'm not complaining, honest.&nbsp; I just can't deny the fact that life was simpler being a dutiful daughter and good student." Her words were not exactly directed at Taro but didn't exclude him. <br><br>Shizum cracked open her water bottle and took a sip. "I'm glad to be out of there and wouldn't wish them on anybody," she mused. "It just wasn't... right... yes. We had to be understood before we could be reintroduced as to the public. 'Safety first!' after all," she said amiably after she took another drink of water. Her words had the singsong quality of the indoctrinated. She looked down then back up into Taro's eyes timidly before murmuring, "you're kind to be so accepting, Taro--sama. It's nice to meet you," she adds in a heartfelt way that turns it into something more than a simple platitude that revealed both the high esteem she'd come to hold him in and the deep loneliness she'd been living with recently as his little display of human rights kindness meant so much to her.

Was that some side effect of Shizuma's power? But his puzzlement lasted for only a brief moment. The way that girl looked at him made it very much impossible to think about side effects or dangers of her power. <br><br>He wasn't really doing much, just being friendly, but it seemed to mean a lot to the younger girl. He couldn't help but smile at the thought. He was doing some good in a small way, and he felt a&nbsp; little proud of himself. Still... wasn't that what every student should do, be friendly to a newcomer?<br><br>"I am certain the other students will be just as accepting, Shizuma-san. Some may need a little time to get to know you first, but I trust neither the headmaster nor the student council will tolerate any discrimination."<br><br>He sipped his water again, thinking about something else to say. Should he tell her about his own background? He didn't want to play up that his own background wasn't completely average, but Shizuma seemed rather uncertain of herself, and maybe it would help if she understood why Taro had no general problem with abnormals. <br><br>"I... also have my own reasons to trust 'abnormals' ", he air-quoted around the word he rather disliked. He looked into the distance for a second, away from Shizuma. Turning his head halfway back to her, enough to look at her face over his shoulder, he added: "My parents both carry red cards, unlike me. I could have easily been in your shoes, if fate had decided it."

"I'm sure everyone will be... proper about things, but I don't think everyone will be as open hearted as you, Taro-sama," she added gently.<br><br>Shizuma took a sip of water when he did then looked at him with her head tilted&nbsp; at a slight angle as he shared his background. '"Oh," she muttered, blinking a lot as she tried to imagine what it would have been like not to have been the first abnormal in her family. "You... I mean... wow..." she stammered, not really knowing what to say as her thoughts raced. Instead of sharing them she moved closer to him and placed a hand on his arm tenderly. "Thank you. I never thought of anything but what it's been like for me... I never spared a thought on other possibilities. How are your parents, are you in touch with them?" She asks with a gentle kind of curiosity.

Taro turned his full attention back to Shizuma and briefly looked down at the hand on his arm. He didn't mind; it was a warm, friendly gesture. Offering Shizuma a soft smile he continued, "I just came back from visiting them in Tokyo for two weeks, and we are on the phone at least once or twice a week. We have a pretty good relationship."<br><br>He shifted his water bottle to his other hand so he could lay his own hand one Shizuma's lightly. "And don't worry about not having thought that much about how it might have played out for others. I am sure you had more than enough problems of your own when your powers developed. There were enough times when I cared little about other people's problems, and I didn't have as good an excuse as suddenly manifesting superhuman abilities. It's the past, right?"<br><br>Taro didn't often talk about his past, rarely even hinted at it without being asked directly, but somehow this girl made him want to reassure her, protect her. Maybe mentioning his own imperfections would distract her from what she perceived as a failure on her part. It was this protective instinct also, that allowed him to fight down his own curiosity just before he could ask about Shizuma's family. Perhaps she was estranged from them, even now that she was out of the special school, and Taro didn't want to open any wounds. <br><br>A change of topic was in order, he thought. Something not so heavy. "Say, Shizuma-san, when did you arrive here? Did you have time to get a good look around, take a tour of the grounds and the buildings"

She'd been taught by her parents that her troubles were not a burden any one else needed to shoulder, and though absent in her life she'd honor their memory as best she could manage to. "They must be proud of their fine, dutiful son," she offered Taro in a sweet tone absent any teasing or sarcasm.<br><br>When Taro lay his hand atop Shizuma's lightly, her eyes went a little wide both from the realization of how forward she had been and the casual intimacy in his gesture. It didn't upset her, and as she heard his words of absolution and found herself savoring the warmth of his touch she looked down at her feet bashfully as her head slipped forward over her face, hiding the color rising on her cheeks from his view. "Yes, you're right, Taro. The past has passed, but thank you for opening my eyes to things. All of this," she said waving a hand down her body and then around in an expansive gesture, "has been difficult on everyone. To tell you the truth, there have been times when I've just wanted to ride the winds forever, never touching down ever again," she admits softly with a long sigh that whirls around a little breeze like they were partners in a ball.<br><br>Taro's silence was welcome, as was his gentle, steady strength. Shizuma found it easy to talk to him, something unusual for her, and was drawn to the caring, protective air about him. She looked up when he changed topics suddenly to something more casual. "I arrived yesterday afternoon and was processed into the school, given a meal and shown my room. So, no, I haven't really had a tour, but I did scout out the school's layout from the air," she reminded Taro what she'd been up to earlier. She looked at the clock on the scoreboard and frowned a little. "Oh, I don't want to make you late for anything, Taro. You've been great, but if you have to be somewhere..." she says, not wanting to be a burden or any trouble for him, so giving him an 'out' if he needs it.

It was a rather intimate gesture, he realized, now that their conversation was turning to less personal topics. "Oh, I have time. My big plan for this morning was to wait till the cafeteria opens, have breakfast, and just hang around a bit, see if I might run into someone I know from last year."<br><br>He, too, cast an eye at the scoreboard clock. There was still a good bit of time till the cafeteria opened at 7. He didn't mind getting to know Shizuma better, but there were practical matters to consider, aside from their respective schedules.<br><br>"Why don't you join me there later? We can have breakfast together, if you like? It's still a little while till they open, but that gives me time to hit the showers and get changed. And perhaps you would like to get changed too?

Taro tried to put on a serious face and managed with some difficulty, before he continued in an imitation of a deeper, older voice "lacks the proper decorum Denai Academy expects from its students."<br><br>A wide smile, almost a grin, split his face. Now that Shizuma had decided to drop the – in his mind very unnecessary - sama when addressing him, he figured he could allow himself a small joke.

She nodded when he spoke of running into friends today to get reacquainted and was about to take that as a farewell when he spoke of them having breakfast together. Her plan had been to cook herself breakfast in the kitchen nearest her room and then read a book, but she found his offer too enticing to pass up. <br><br>Shizuma was about to say so when he playfully teased her outfit making her say quickly, "no that's not it. This was designed for me at the Institute, specifically to help me with my flying," she went on to explain. "The streamers help me 'ead the wind' and warn me of shifts in air streams... or so I was told," she adds thinking about it for the first time and wondering if that's what they do for her. Then, blushing a little, she admits, "I really hated how it's... cut... but a skirt isn't really a good option for flying either." Her tone was a bit too knowing for that observation to be theoretical and there's definitely a story there, but maybe not one she's yet ready to share.<br><br>"So, I'll go and get changed then drop my stuff off at my room. What time should we meet, Taro-san?" Shizuma asks dropping back into accustomed formality by habit. Also, there was a safety in the social distance the nicety instilled. Though she kept smiling and was genuinely warm towards Taro, something shadowed the back of her eyes with a mix of confusion and uncertainty that she didn't voice. Instead she said, "Thanks for sparing me from spending the day alone."

Something about the explanation for the streamers struck him as illogical, but he couldn't lay his finger on what it was. "The cut is... uhhh... rather ... daring," he agreed hesitantly, trying to keep his eyes on Shizuma's face. "Maybe... ah ... you could find a vest or jacket to wear over it?"<br><br>It was a good thing Shizuma returned the conversation to more practical matters. Discussing fashion was not one of his strong points, and he was almost glad that she had fallen back to a more formal address. That provided a nice clean break from talking about a rather personal topic he didn't want to dwell on too much.<br><br>"Oh, I think I will be there when they open and you can join me whenever it's convenient for you?

Shizuma's said, a touch defensively, when Taro commented on the cut of her flying suit. Then she frowned cutely as she started to think about it, but shook her head no about the jacket/vest idea. "They'll have too much fun with it, trust me," she explains cryptically then giggles a little before running a hand through her hair and looking up into Taro's eyes. Her gaze is almost an invitation to ask about whatever she's alluding to, but at the same time, he could easily just drop it without causing offense.<br><br>"Sounds perfect, Taro-sama," Shizuma said smiling warmly at him. She liked his easy going, no pressure air which answered for her the question she wasn't brave enough to ask.

The silly, girlish part of herself that had been long dormant in the Institute she'd been in since her powers manifested had awakened as she conversed with the boy who showed such kindness and fine character. She smiled a crooked, self deprecating smile as she found herself trying to see if he was looking at her as she left, unsure if she wanted him to be looking or not.

All she had to do was follow the signs. As she approached it she was pleasantly surprised by how good the food smelled. In her mind she was composing her meal, partly as a distraction so she didn't come off as needy and obsessed when she saw Taro next. Upon entering the cafeteria she looked around for him then headed over to his table after spotting him. "What are you reading, Taro-Sana?" She asked when she was at a conversational distance from him.<br><br>OOC: Continued... (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=257884.msg12745574#msg12745574)

				<div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/IAV71Qp.png)</div><strong>Name:</strong> Akiyama Amaya<br><strong>Location:</strong> Gymnasium, in the far back<br><strong>Time:</strong> Day 1 - Shortly after entrance ceremony<br><strong>With:</strong> Megumi Shika<br><hr><br>Perhaps she was being a bit impolite. The gymnasium was full of chairs, several vacant, yet she had opted to stand in the far back, white shirt leaning against the back wall. She'd taken off her uniform blazer and had tied it around the skirt. It was nice and toasty already, and her faster than average blood circulation didn't give her much of a chance to freeze, quite the contrary.<br><br>Perhaps she should've put away her phone. She had an earbud in one ear, the other one had fallen somewhere down her cleavage, presumably to never be seen again. She could feel the very mild vibrations humming against her left breast. She'd find it later, presumably. Listening to music during a presentation, an invitation rather, felt rude in nature, though, rudeness was the least of her concerns. She had many many years to catch up on, and that included music. If her back couldn't be left alone for something as simple as listening to music on one ear during a presentation nobody paid attention to anyways, perhaps this "new world" wasn't so different from the old one.<br><br>It felt wrong to think that way. As much as she'd been used as a political tool, like so many others, she was a winner. It didn't bother her that her picture had been used in the papers. Pictures of a hospital-bed, of her comatose. She'd read through the articles later, it was nothing but bullshit, but then again, did it really matter? Did it matter that nobody mentioned that she herself was the one that had pushed herself into her month long coma? Did it matter that they didn't bring up even once that she'd nearly killed a man?<br><br>Of course it didn't. Politics was like a twisted ant-hill, looking at it from the outside in, it all looks intricate and clever, but since nobody knows what happens on the inside, could it truly be considered as impressive as most put it to? Amaya didn't think so at least. Luckily, it wasn't her job to write the newspapers, nor to plan future propaganda. In the end, she was just happy. Thinking about it only made her head hurt, she was just going to stick to appreciating she'd no longer risk being put to sleep for walking too fast, or for giving someone a half-hearted look, or just because it'd be fun to make a bet over which direction she'd fall when she got knocked out.<br><br>While she'd been spacing out, the gymnasium was already starting to empty out. Was she really that out of it? Oh well, it didn't matter much. Some were helping out with moving chairs, but she didn't feel like it. She was sure others were more than happy to help. She slipped her phone back into the blazer front pocket. The cord for the earbuds was just barely long enough to manage the distance, though, just barely was plenty, wasn't it?<br><br>She started making her way towards the doors leading outdoors. She was considering to just return to her dorm room. She'd already moved in about a week and a half earlier, having been allowed in earlier due to not having anywhere else to go, so she was quite nicely adjusted. Perhaps she'd take some time to flip through some magazines, find out if there was anything else she wanted to spend state money on.<br><br>In her steps, her eyes were drawn towards a girl seemingly losing the grip of her phone. It was impossible to tell if she was normal or not, but cute, cute she certainly was. Perhaps a mild act of vigilantism would be worth testing her heart out again, having avoided her powers like the pest ever since she got hospitalized. If there ever was a time to try them out, it certainly would be saving a cute girl's expensive piece of electronics, right?<br><br>Nothing in particular triggered it. She just subconsciously knew how. Her heartbeat went from a fair 60 to a hammering 300. A normal heart would be at the brink of failing. Everything had slowed down. The speech of those around her was lagging. "L-e-t-s g-o o-u-t-s-i-d-e" she could vaguely hear behind her. It was of course not directed at her though, it wasn't like she had anyone who would group up with her. Just as the cute girl from earlier had lost the grip of her phone and it slowly turned till a corner was making a hasty pursuit for the floor, she pushed off with her left foot. Her heartbeat jumped up another hundred beats in what to her felt like a couple seconds. Almost seven beats per second, she could just barely distinguish the separate beats from one another. She bent down as she started getting closer, and in the last inch between the phone and the hard floor, her fingers swept in, catching it.<br><br>She immediately cut her speed down, finding herself almost falling to the floor, winding up stepping a couple steps beyond the cute girl. It felt really lame, she'd always had so good control before, though, it'd also been quite the while, maybe it was to be expected. She stepped back to the girl and her friends, giving a charming smile as she handed it over. <strong>"One phone for the gorgeous lady"</strong> She said with a wink, leaving it in her hands, proceeding to step off. It would just become awkward if she hung around. If the girl was interested, she'd show up, she was sure of it. With her mind only thinking of the girl, she'd found herself heading back into the gymnasium. <em>"Guess it'll look really lame if I just turn around and walk out now, guess I'll help out with the chairs</em> She thought to herself, starting to stack up a couple of them before noticing someone still seated. Well, the fact she was seated wasn't the most eye-drawing feature, but rather, the silvery white hair, and the strips of white leather just barely visible between it. There was no mistaking it, there was only one person it could be, she'd seen the very same leathery blindfold a plethora of times. She wasn't sure how she felt about it admittedly, but perhaps a bit stupidly, she started making her way between the chairs, knowing well she was making an abundance of noise, and admittedly, quite the mess, to find her way to the chair the silver-haired lady was sat. <br><br>As she stood right by her, there was no mistaking it. All the way down to the strips of alloy that weaved into the leather, there was nobody else it could be. She wasn't sure how to feel, but in the end, she'd made her way over, it'd just be weird to run away again. What if some cute girls were watching, watching her mow through a sea of chairs, only to do a 180 and run away again. How lame wouldn't that be. <strong>"Umm... I hope I'm not disturbing you"</strong> Amaya started, leaning back on the back of one of the chairs, biting her lip. <strong>"We, uh, met a while ago, I guess we didn't leave on the best footing... Even if I never said anything or whatever, I, uh... Threw you a lot of nasty stares, I feel really bad for having done it, so I wanted to apologize"</strong> Perhaps it was a bit dumb to apologize to a practically blind girl about having thrown mean stares, but it was how superficial it seemed that made it matter. She had been the one to do something inappropriate, with the girl in front of her unable to pick up on it. <strong>"My name's Akiyama Amaya, we were in the same department of the university hospital for a while. You might not remember me, but that doesn't really matter, I just wanted to apologize"</strong>

Something was causing a cacophonous clamor, and it was coming her way. The initial noised caused the blind girl to jump slightly in her seat. At least one girl was looking at Akiyama, as Megumi actually turned to "look" at her clattering against chairs in her frantic approach. The noises were startling for Megumi, who put a careful hand to her blindfold in case she needed to take it off for an emergency. However, when she heard the girl's voice, the blind student lowered her hand.<br><br>Megumi remembered her.<br><br>Akiyama Amaya; Megumi had heard her voice in the group sessions. She didn't talk to her much and after, well, <em>that</em> happened, they spoke even less, but Megumi never forgot a voice. Though her eyes took the brunt of her brain's processing power, her memory was still eidetic. Megumi could thank her worthless father for that much, if for nothing else. She listened to to the girl speak, and made a small nod when she apologized. <strong>"Akiyama-san. I remember you, actually,"</strong> she said, gaining a weak smile. <strong>"I um, have trouble <em>not</em> remembering things."</strong> Megumi shook her head, shifting to face Akiyama fully. <strong>"And... it's alright. Actually... It's kind of a relief?"</strong> Megumi admitted. <br><br>Feeling she needed to explain, Megumi continued. Her fingers touched her blindfold lightly as she spoke, using it as a prop to explain. <strong>"I can't see anything with this blindfold, but I still can pick up on some things with my ears. Um. Changes in speech, terser diction, tapping feet... I don't gather much, but I've, um, always known what happened to Shiro-senpai angered you. I just, um, never knew how much? I was kind of afraid, actually! I read you were coming to this academy in the papers, but I didn't know if you'd do anything once you were out of the hospital. It's, um, silly and rude of me to assume that you would ever do anything! I know that, but... I've been dealing with that sort of paranoia for awhile now."</strong> <br><br>Megumi had to take a moment to find the girl speaking to her. Her fingers explored in the girl's direction, feeling for and eventually finding Akiyama's hand. Megumi knew how much courage it probably took for Akiyama to say something like that. Not a lot of people did something like this offhandedly, and she felt that it had been eating at this girl more than she knew. If nothing else, Megumi wanted to put Akiyama's mind at ease. If allowed, the blind student would take the girl's hand in her own, and place the other atop of Akiyama's. It was almost like Megumi was comforting <em>her</em>, not the other way around. <strong>"So... Thank you, really."</strong><br>

				<br><strong>Location:</strong> Gymnasium Seating<br><strong>Time:</strong> Day 1 - Shortly after entrance ceremony<br><strong>With:</strong> Megumi, Akiyama<br><hr><br>"Hwaaaaaaaah...." Akumi-Jo (AJ for short) yawned as he shambled into the auditorium. It was the first day of class, which conversely meant that yesterday was his last night of freedom, and boy did he take advantage. The big boss man wasn't kidding when he said the buses stopped at 11:30, and he honestly wasn't sure how he managed to get home last night, only vaguely recalling collapsing into bed and awaking to a hella hangover the next morning. Of course, being less than 100% wasn't an excuse not to <em>look</em> 100%, and on days like this the ever glamorous boy liked to throw on an extra 10% and look even more dazzling. His hair shined, his eyes were vibrant, his skin was smooth as cream and his make up was, as the Americans said, "on fleek" (whatever the hell that meant). He smirked to himself as he noted that even his outfit was on point, playfully tugging at the hem of his skirt. It had been one of his first in what would likely be many rebellions, completely flying in the face of the regular dress code. Sure he wore the men's top and blazer, black was more his color anyways, but he had managed to nab a skirt to use in place of slacks, after all perfectly slender and shaven legs like his were meant to be shown off, to conceal them under a drab pair of pants would be nothing short of criminal. Ofcourse his ensemble was rounded out by all the flashy accessories you'd expect from a gyaru: hair ties, flashy jewelry, nails, knee socks, the works. AJ was dressed to impress and make an impact...<br><br>Ofcourse, all the flash and glitz in the world didn't matter when everyone's attention was turned towards the opening presentation, AJ crossing his arms and pouting out his cheeks as he was forced to sit there amongst the crowd, just another nameless face among the invalids, completely ignored. If the boy had ever truly been paying attention to the speeches at all, then it didn't take long for him to completely loose interest. Blah blah welcome everyone...blah blah...don't do this...blah blah peace and harmony...blah blab blabh blah....Honestly you could replace the headmasters' words with the random trumpet noises you heard on Charlie Brown and it would have gotten across all the same. It didn't take long for the tired child to begin to nod off, even with the ceremony being relatively short, gently slumping against the shoulder of the poor kid sitting beside him. Despite his attempts to shrug him off and pester him into paying attention AJ was having none of it, and eventually the guy ended up shaking his head and conceding to his new role of personal pillow. <br><br>By the time the ceremony was over AJ was completely out, sliding off of the other boy once he stood up and walked off and slumping down, sprawled across a series of chairs napping peacefully as the other abnormals filed out around him. However he didn't get to sleep long, eventually the clanging and banging of chairs being put away finally stirring&nbsp; &nbsp;AJ from his eternal slumber, "Errrghh...ehhh five more minutes..." he grumbled, though still rising up from his spot regardless. Rubbing the sleep from his eyes, careful not to ruin his make up, he glanced around the emptying room, smiling as he spotted a familiar mass of snow white hair. It was none other than his roommate Megumi Shika, the blind mastermind. Though she wasn't alone, she seemed to be talking with someone, a busty blonde girl he didn't recognize. And while he was too far away to hear what they were talking about, their posture and gestures implied it was fairly serious. Of course, never one to pass up the chance to ruin a tender moment, AJ sprung up to his feet and immediately made a b-line towards the girls, "Oi! Megumi-Chan!" he called cutely, his soft voice androgynous enough that, combined with his feminine build and appearance, it would be almost impossible to discern him from an actual girl at first glance. The rambunctious femboy made his way over to the two, gently throwing himself at Megumi, hugging around her shoulders and playfully hanging off of her in a way that was far too familiar considering their only recent acquaintanceship, "So this is where you've been. I didn't see you this morning, I thought you might have gotten lost somewhere" he cooed, grinning mischievously as he turned his attention towards Akiyama, pouting out his cheeks and playfully digging his finger into Megumi's cheek, "Jeez how cold! Abandoning your roommate to go flirt with some other girl, even after we just slept together too" he cooed in mock betrayal. Of course in truth they had only "slept together" in the sense that they slept in the same dorm, but the way he said it was technically right, which was always the best kind of "right" to be.

				<div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/IAV71Qp.png)</div><strong>Name:</strong> Akiyama Amaya<br><strong>Location:</strong> Gymnasium<br><strong>Time:</strong> Day 1 - Shortly after entrance ceremony<br><strong>With:</strong> Megumi Shika, Akumi-Jo Sakuma<br><hr><br>Amaya kept her mouth shut as Megumi elaborated a bit on her own fears and insecurities. As much as she wanted to call off it all as mindless paranoia, she had to admit the legitimacy behind several of her concerns. It was true, how she'd been back then, it wouldn't have been unlikely she'd consider going after her for some form of satisfaction or repercussion. However, now, it couldn't be further from her train of thought. Physical vengeance for a completely clouded situation was far below her. It hadn't back then, though, neither had killing a married man with children, she'd changed, and that was the charm of it. The world had opened its doors for her, she wasn't going to waste it on something as dumb as vengeance for a chain of unknown circumstances. <br><br>More than willingly, Amaya let her hand land in the palm of Megumi's, feeling another one trailing in over hers. She followed it up by taking her free hand, landing it on the side of the stack, feeling the soft side of Megumi's hands while her other one was sandwiched between them. <br><br><strong>"Well, you've worried for nothing"</strong> Amaya said, cracking an invisible smile. <strong>"Wouldn't want to stomp all over the newfound changes in our country, I bet it'd make the papers far quicker than what my previous story did. Not everyone are happy after all"</strong> She said in conclusion, slowly letting go of Megumi's hand again, returning them to the back of the chair she'd previously been leant on to. She refrained from bringing up that she, all in all, was rather afraid of not making it at the school and having to make her leave, she had no idea what she'd do at that point. Aside from the physical capabilities her intestines gifted her, her far more efficient than average organs letting her body's muscles develop far faster than average. Her lungs gave her far better intake and her blood was far richer in oxygen than most, a necessity when her heart-rate ramped up. Along with a plethora of other benefits it gifted her with, there was the downsides too though. It hadn't taken her much work at all to bring her to the physical state she was in at the moment, being visibly strong in her build. Not very much so, but there was no denying that she was of the more athletic type, going by aesthetics alone. She feared if she exercised much more, it'd start to make her look... Unappealing by modern beauty standards being one of the concerns in her head.<br><br><strong>"Anyways, don't worry about it, I'm not here to hurt you"</strong> She said with a slight chuckle, only to find herself rudely interrupted by some other chick shouting at them. With the person being half behind her, she tilted her neck back to get a look at the rushing figure. <strong>"Gan... Guro?"</strong> She couldn't help but frown a little, almost a bit confused. Her attention returned to Megumi briefly, but it was yet again pulled aside when the gyaru-lady started pouting.<br><br>While the tan-skin was weeping up a cry-story, Amaya had a quick look over the person's body, only to quickly pull back her interest. She liked cute and confident girls, surely, but how much confidence could you have in yourself if you needed seventy layers of president candidate to like yourself? No, there was nothing in the girl for Amaya, the only thing that truly peaked her interest was <em>how</em> flat the person was. <br><br>Despite being somewhat socially uncanny, it didn't take much to read what the gyaru-lady was stating as just lies and half-truths. It just seemed off, perhaps because it felt fake, much like the gyaru's skin color.<br><br><strong>"It's alright isn't it? Besides, if she can't look, all the more reason to want some <em>volume</em>, no?"</strong>&nbsp;She said with a cheeky smile, leaning a bit forward from her loose seating on the back of the chair, her well sized breast being firmly put on display, like diamonds on a shelf, standing proudly, drawing eyes like no other gem could. <strong>"And beside, I wasn't flirting, not yet at least, not unless Ms. Shika desires it"</strong> Her smile was wide, teasing, drenched in self-confidence and charm. If the gyaru's strategy was to dress slutty to attract those who liked such, preferring more feminine, womanly ladies, she wooed for the complete opposite, making them feel like they didn't need a man. Now, all that remained to be seen was how the gyaru-lady, and more importantly Megumi, took the wit.

				<div class="floatleft">(http://i.imgur.com/wJe2bI4.jpg?2)</div><strong>Name:</strong> Megumi Shika<br><strong>Location:</strong> Caught between a Gorilla and a Trouser snake!<br><strong>Time:</strong> Day 1 - Shortly after entrance ceremony<br><strong>With:</strong> Akiyama, Akumi<br><hr><br>Megumi nodded at Akiyama's response. Megumi knew she was paranoid at times, but she couldn't help it! The blind girl had absolutely no idea what most people around even looked like, let alone what they were doing. Megumi tried to see the best in people, she really did, but it didn't help when she couldn't actually <em>see</em> to begin with. Someone could hold a gun up to her head, and she wouldn't even know it.<br><br>Case in point, only moments later, Megumi was suddenly assaulted from behind by AJ. The sudden grab caused her to make a soft 'eep!' in surprise. She could handle people being friendly, but Sakuma was taking things a little too far. Megumi was starting to become a little miffed! While Megumi kept on stuttering, she began using words that might rub AJ the wrong way. <strong>"Oh, um, H-hello Sakuma-<em>kun</em>,"</strong> she said. As always, Megumi was hopelessly polite, but she was also purposely using the male honorific for him. She winced beneath her blindfold as AJ prodded her cheek rudely. The action was making the blind girl visibly uncomfortable. <strong>"S-sorry. You um, smelled so strongly alcohol when you came in last night, I thought you might need the extra sleep."</strong> She claimed. With an uncertain hand, Megumi gently moved to push away AJ's annoying finger. <strong>"C-could you stop touching me, please...?</strong><br><br>When it seemed like Akiyama was also trying to flirt with her, Megumi's began looking a little flustered. While she didn't really understand what Akiyama meant by 'volume,' Megumi already had enough of the gosh-darn flirting from Sakuma. It was really embarrassing! <strong>"A-and I would appreciate it if you didn't!"</strong> she stammered. Megumi wasn't really angry, but all the touching and teasing was a little much for the usually timid girl.

				<br><strong>Location:</strong> Gymnasium Seating<br><strong>Time:</strong> Day 1 - Shortly after entrance ceremony<br><strong>With:</strong> Megumi, Akiyama<br><hr><br>AJ chuckled a bit as the blonde girl quickly identified him as a ganguro, the sun-tanned femboy playfully rolling his eyes at the notion, "Come on, Ganguro is so 90's, not to mention garish. Gud-Gyaru ("Good Girl") is where it's at" &nbsp;he explained, as if there were really a discernible difference between the two. His face lit up at Megumi's greeting, seemingly ignorant of the girl's discomfort, either willingly so or otherwise. When she mentioned him reeking of alcohol AJ brought his finger up to his lips and glanced skywards contemplatively, "Hmmm, I guess you're right about that. I was partying pretty hard last night" he mused, the faint remnants of a hangover tickling at the back of his skull even now, "Oh Megumi-chan you're such a good friend looking out for me like that!" he squealed, about to nuzzle into her when her showing hand lightly pushed him back, causing the boy to playfully pout once more, "how cruel...of course that cold indifference is all part of your charm Megumi-chan, keep it up!" he said, flashing an approving thumbs up and nodding along proudly, all gestures that obviously would go unseen by the silvery haired girl. <br><br>When AJ turned his attention back to Akiyama he was all smiles, not seeming to share the instant animosity the blonde girl had adorned, "Alright? I've never more proud!' he exclaimed, clearly not actually having any issues with Megumi flirting with other people. Even if he and Megumi had been more than just roommates he wasn't one for exclusivity. When the girl put her massive mounds on display AJ couldn't help but give an impressed whistle, "whoa nice! Megumi you should check these out they'r....never mind..." he said, realizing he was the only one who would actually be able to appreciate the enticing display, "I must say you do have an amazing pair" he complimented, more enticed by the display than jealous, Akiyama's plan backfiring somewhat. With a grin he stepped towards her and crouched down to get a closer look, putting her at eye level with the woman, "And you certainly know how to flaunt 'em, I can admire that" he said, giving her a friendly pat on the shoulder, his smile suddenly turning mischievous, "mind if I take try em on for a sec?"<br><br>Without waiting for an answer the boy firmly grasped onto Akiyama's shoulder, and in an instant the girl would feel significantly lighter, as if a great strain had been lifted from her shoulders...well, lifted from her chest more specifically. However before she could glance down to see what had happened to her own chest, she would be distracted by AJ's, which had seemed to swell up dramatically in the blink of an eye, one of the bottoms of his shirt bursting off and shooting past Akiyama's head, the rest of the garment visibly straining to contain his new, massive honkers, "Oh wow, props to your tailor..." AJ murmured, impressed that Akiyama's (now much looser) shirt had managed to contain these puppies at all. Slowly AJ stood up, taking a few moments to adjust to the new weight balance of his body, his newly acquired breasts heaving proudly in front of him, making him look even more like a true woman than he already did. Of course, it wouldn't take Akiyama long to recognize just who's breasts they really were. While AJ had left their skin tone in tact, so that their new breasts would blend in with the rest of their bodies and not clash awkwardly, it was clear from the shape and size that they were none other than Akiyama's sweater puppies, "These things really are amazing. You mentioned volume but these things feel like they've been cranked up to 11!" he cooed, running his hands over his chest, groping and squeezing his new breasts, even going so far as to pinch at one of his nipples, garnering a faint moan from him, "though man, you must be really strong to heft these things around all day. Two words: back problems" he mused as he noted their weight, already starting to feel their pull affecting his posture somewhat, "what do you think Megumi chan? Wanna give them a quick squeeze? I imagine they're almost as big as yours now" the boy cooed, flaunting his breasts towards Megumi.

Following her words was the ganguro, or rather, gyaru, as the lady so promptly explained without Amaya paying particularly much attention. It was all the same, wasn't it? She could be dressing in a polka-dotted dress and Amaya would still consider it ganguro or gyaru or whatever else belonged with the title.<br><br>As delightful as it was to soak up compliments for her pristine twin peaks, The joy was quickly exchanged with confusion with the ganguro-gyaru person's touch to her shoulder and request to borrow them. She'd be ready to ask what in the world such a dumb sentence meant, she felt herself almost losing her balance. For some reason, her body felt light as air. What kind of power was that? Some kind of gravity-power? But why was it so spe-<br><br>She'd regained her balance and looked up again. She found her eyes on height with a pair of gargantuan breast. What in the world was... She managed to straighten herself up. Why did her balance feel so off? She felt like she could fall back any second. And then she looked down on her own chest, and everything made sense. Why her bra felt so empty and out of position, why her shirt felt like it was bagging up. The only gravity that had been stolen was the gravitational poles of her breast.<br><br>While the tan-skin was busy admiring how Amaya's breast had messed up her shirt, Amaya herself moved her hands up to her chest, undoing a central button of her shirt and feeling underneath it, as though her breast had just deflated. <strong>"Wow, you really are flat as a washing board..."</strong>&nbsp;She mumbled to herself, quite amazed in all the confusion.<br><br>However, the amazement quickly turned into anger as the gyaru-thingy started to swing them around and play with them like they were play dough. Though, still baffled, she found herself spacing out until the strange being ahead of her started to talk about back problems before flaunting them around Megumi. <strong>"You're right, it takes a fair bit of strength, why don't I demonstrate"</strong> She mumbled, at the speed of a heartbeat she'd crossed the two steps between them and her hands were halfway around the gyaru's neck, by the next one, she'd pulled in and taken a step back, lifting up the shorter girl. <strong>"I'd imagine this would be quite comfortable if my breast were where they belong and not covered in spray-tan, but oh well, what do you think of the amazing strength that it must take to lift <em>my</em> breast around? Perhaps you want to give them back where they belong?</strong> She asked with a sly smile, happy to keep hold of the person for as long as it took to have her puppies back. <strong>"What do you say, become a washing board again, or stay afloat? If you're quick, I might even let you rest your head in them for a bit"</strong>

Honestly, though she might never admit it, Megumi occasionally felt like she was watching a train-wreck in slow motion. <br><br>First off, you had AJ. In Megumi's opinion (that she never said aloud), AJ was basically a punching bag waiting to happen. Not only did his clothing make him a target for bullying, but his constant, in-your-face personality could be more than a little grating. Sometimes it was like he was asking to be punched. He was a flight risk around anyone with a history of impaitence.<br><br><em>And speaking of impatience,</em> it looked like Akiyama was still coping with life outside the System, because she was already getting into scuffles. For goodness sake, entrance ceremony wasn't even ten minutes over! Megumi didn't know a whole lot of Akiyama's story outside of what the paper had said, but this was hardly a way to start anew!<br><br>The whole situation left Megumi feeling... Heated! Her jaw tightened in frustration. In a rather annoyed voice, she said. <strong>"A-Akiyama kun, we are not the only people in this gymasium! If you really don't want to make the papers, stop hurting Sakuma-kun <em>this instant</em>. And Sakuma-kun, stop teasing Akiyama kun, or- or-"</strong> Megumi had to think for a moment of the worst possible thing she could say to AJ. Realization dawned on her. <strong>"-or I'll tell everyone why you're an 'O'-word!"</strong> She threatened, bringing up the one title AJ <em>absolutely</em> could not stand being called. She remembered hearing his reaction to being called an "Otaku" last week when she was analyzing his <del>dolls</del> figurines. It was a sore spot, and if it meant deescalating the situation, Megumi was not afraid to hang it over him!<br><br>This was one of the advantages in having All-Seeing Eyes. Megumi was an peerless expert at gathering dirt. If the mood ever struck her, she could easily terrorize the entire school with this ability. It wouldn't be difficult, either. Thankfully for everyone at Denai, Megumi was too kind for such deceit.<br><br>

				<br><strong>Location:</strong> Gymnasium Seating<br><strong>Time:</strong> Day 1 - Shortly after entrance ceremony<br><strong>With:</strong> Megumi, Akiyama<br><hr><br>AJ chuckled and wagged his finger at the girl as she commented on the size of his chest, "hey now, it's called 'petite', contrary to popular belief the world doesn't fully revolve around these fat lumps here, you have to travel a bit lower to find the true center of the universe" he said with a chuckle, her attempted smack talk rolling off him like water off a duck's back. After all he was a boy, how exactly was he supposed to feel insecure about his bust size when he didn't really have tits to begin with? Again another solid attack thwarted by a complete misunderstanding of one's opponent, "Besides it hardly matters, with my Trip Switch I can just swap in whatever parts I want. It's actually pret-eh...."<br><br>The boy paused as the girl suddenly appeared before him, faster than he could even register her movement. He stood there, caught like a deer in the head lights, barely able to blink before her felt a pair of strong hands clasp around his throat, "What the-kekekgrah..." he gasped as he was suddenly lifted into the air, legs dangling and kicking helplessly at the woman as she hoisted him up by the throat, "T-tanning bed actually..." he rasped in response to her spray-tan comment, not about to let something as trivial as being strangled stop him from getting in the last word. <br><br>As he hung there a good foot off the ground one of AJ's hands reached for his neck, clawing at the woman's grip trying to relieve some of the pressure, while simultaneously his other hand shakily grabbed into his pocket and produced his smart phone, opening up his video camera and pointing it at them, making sure he got the incident of her throttling him on tape, "kehkahheheheheheh, y-y'know, girlfriend of mine used to do this to me in bed...she was way into that hardcore BDSM stuff...so if I cum on you or something it's mostly just reflex, don't be too flattered" he rasped between gasps for air, not about to be broken by some strong man blonde bimbo who wanted to act all triggered. You didn't get to just beat people up to get what you wanted, that's not how society worked. It was in some ways an admirable showing of toughness, though his increasingly oxygen deprived brain didn't exactly share the sentiment. <br><br>When he heard Megumi's concerningly distant sounding voice AJ mentally breathed a sigh of relief (physically he didn't breath at all). And when he saw her out of the corner of his eye she might as well have been wearing a halo and a set of angel's wings...oh look, his beautiful savior. Ofcourse that hopeful awe didn't stick around long when she suddenly told HIM to stop picking on HER, y'know the girl currently trying to send him to the afterlife. AJ stared down at Megumi as if she was crazy, now sputtering as he tried to force out words, "Really? You're doing this now!? <em>While </em>she's STRANGLING ME TO DEATH!?" he groaned, his hands shaking so hard that his phone slipped from his hand and fell to the floor (thankfully contained within a protective case).

Going by how the ganguro-twat didn't look like some hideous science project (just a hideous spray-tan mistake), it was fair to assume he had some leniency as far as how long his "swaps" lasted, and she assumed it would be reversible by the second. Megumi didn't seem overly happy about it all, and neither was Akiyama to be fair, she didn't like to abuse her powers. Partially for her own sake, mostly for her victim's. It was an unfair fight, it was as plain and simple as that. it just felt like abuse from her part, since her abilities could trump most other abnormalities without too much hassle.<br><br>However, as much as she wanted to abide to Megumi's plea for her to stop, the tanning bed mistake that was whipping its weak legs around in an attempt to loosen her grip was asking for it too much. Not to mention it was getting hard for her to let go of him without just dropping him to the floor, since his feet wouldn't land properly while he was whipping them around. <br><br>Her eyes were drawn to the phone filming the whole affair, not that it bothered her, it would be easy to take the phone and delete the footage. Especially when it slipped out of the gyaru-lady's hands and fell on the floor. She sighed, letting one of her hands off the neck they'd been wrapped around, proceeding to squat down, picking up the phone and pausing the recording, followed by deleting it and slipping it back into one of the lady's blazer-pockets.<br><br><strong>"You sure? I thought she said she was enjoying it?"</strong>&nbsp;She asked Megumi, though, contrary to her words, her grip around the nape of his neck loosened enough for him to breathe freely, though it still kept him locked in place. She even let him down on the floor again, what a generous god she could be when she went in for it. <strong>"Now then, <em>thief</em>, you can either reverse your little party trick, or I'll lift you up again. So what do you say, Ms. Washing board? Round 2? Or give me back what belongs to me"</strong>

She stood from her seat, clutching her walking-cane so tightly that her hands were shaking. AJ really had a lot of nerve saying that. He was the one being so difficult! All the boy ever seemed to do was draw attention to himself. It was so frustrating! Megumi just wanted to have a normal school year, but then there was this- this- <em>nincompoop</em> who made all of that so difficult! Accusingly, she pointed a finger at AJ. <strong>"Even if you s-swap the parts onto yourself, those are still Akiyama-san's. It isn't just rude to toy with them without permission, y-you are basically molesting her!"</strong><br><br>At Akiyama's question, the blind girl nodded worriedly. <strong>"I- um, yes. I'm sure."</strong> she stammered out. Immediately, Megumi bowed deeply in apology to Akiyama on AJ's behalf. <strong>"Sorry! I know he's a bit of a hassle, but um, hurting him isn't the right way to go about this. As far as I've been able to tell, the swaps do not cause permanent damage!"</strong> In truth, Megumi wasn't really one to take a side in problems like these, even if she felt AJ was in the wrong. Two people were fighting. Even if it was justified and one-sided; even if it meant hurting her roomate's feelings or humbling herself on his behalf; Megumi just wanted the conflict to end peacefully.

				<strong>Name:</strong> Akumi-Jo "AJ" Sakuma <br><strong>Location:</strong> Gymnasium Seating<br><strong>Time:</strong> Day 1 - Shortly after entrance ceremony<br><strong>With:</strong> Megumi, Akiyama<br><hr><br>AJ glared at Megumi's cold response, and was quick to snap at her with a heated retort...well he WOULD have done that, if someone wasn't in the middle crushing his wind pipe! "Eghkrahfraffffkhkfhfffffkhhhh...." the boy replied eloquently, though it didn't seem to add much to the conversation at that point. He watched with half lidded eyes as Akiyama picked up his cell phone and went to delete the video. While she was looking at the screen the boy moved his hand over his pocket, but otherwise didn't resist as the woman erased the footage and tucked the phone back into his pocket. <br><br>When Akiyama let AJ down and loosened her grip on his throat the boy let out loud gasp, eagerly sucking down air as if it were candy, "pufk....huff...kkuhukkeek...hufhh...huff...my goodness grandma, what big strong hands you have" AJ retorted, his throat raspy, honestly unable to help himself at this point. As he stood there, still very much at Akiyama's mercy, he began to laugh giddily, as if suddenly told a joke only he could hear, or perhaps a bit of mild delirium brought on by poor blood circulation to the brain, "Akiyama right? y'know, don't ask me why, but I have a feeling we're going to be great friends. I mean, maybe after some anger management sessions granted..." he said with a chuckle. <br><br>"You know not once did you even consider saying please...seriously what brutish place did you learn your diplomacy skills from? Mongolia?" he said as the blonde laid down the ultimatum, either he undid the switch or he was going to be hoisted up for another round. Part of him was tempted to remain defiant just to spite her, or tease her by telling her the switch was permanent. But between Megumi's obvious displeasure, and his own barely functioning survival instincts finally kicking in, he thought the better of it. With a small sigh, he activated his power, even snapping as he did so to indicate he was using it (not that his power actually required any kind of gesture or phrase to use) "Trip Switch" AJ muttered, their bodies returning to normal in the blink of an eye, no permanent damage done, no sign that they had ever even switched in the first place, "Can you let go now drama queen? Or are you not done throwing your tantrum? I heard the cooks at the cafeteria are holding off on dessert tonight, maybe you can go strangle them and help out the rest of us with that He-Man strength?"<br><br><br><br>

Despite going after Sakuma first, when she referred to Amaya, Amaya wasn't listening for much. She was too distracted by Sakuma's attempts at talking back at her, as though he had everything under control despite being so clearly asphyxiated.<br><br>However, eventually, she got back what belonged to her. In what felt like a disgusting course of events, she felt her breast were back where they belonged. It was a bit uncomfortable, she knew she'd have to adjust her bra so it'd sit properly again, but that'd have to wait for just a little while.<br><br><strong>"Perhaps, though, that doesn't change the fact that you're nothing less than a thief. Call me whatever you want, but I'll let you in on one little thing that'll never change in life, that you can either learn the easy way or the hard way. There's always someone there to fuck you up, so pick your fights. Next time you pull something like that, you won't get off nearly as easily. Your powers are a neat little party trick, but some of us could seriously hurt you"</strong><br><br>Amaya's expression was grim, it was clear it was no longer fun and jokes. However, she moved her hand aside, letting go of Sakuma, proceeding to unbutton the top two buttons of her shirt and shamelessly adjusting her bra before buttoning up the shirt again, correcting it ever so slightly.<br><br><strong>"You know what your issue is? You're the kind of person who's all bark and no bite. Confidence won't help you much when you're pinned to the floor you know?"</strong><br><br>With a sigh, Amaya decided it might be about time to stop. <strong>"Oh well, whatever, I'm well beyond done"</strong> Perhaps taking the mature route was the best course. She had no intent of apologizing to someone who had so blatantly both violated her body by means of stealing... Parts of it without her consent, and by flaunting it like some kindergartener who'd found a branch in the woods. She'd gotten her puppies back, so what was there left to want to kill Sakuma for? Beyond the horrible stylistic choices, poor skin color and measly attitude having been so close to her anyways.<br><br><strong>"So you two are roommates, huh? Shika-san, should he annoy you to death"</strong><em>"And I can't imagine her not doing that"</em> she said, muffled into a gentle whisper of annoyance and underlying shots being thrown. <strong>"You're more than welcome to stay the night in my room"</strong> Her eyes weren't resting on Sakuma at all, quite the contrary, it seemed like she was ignoring his presence completely during the latter parts of her offer.

She looked between the two voices bickering. Akiyama eventually backed down, and Megumi was thankful. Also mortified; even though Megumi was happy no one had been hurt, this whole situation had visibly shaken the timid girl.<br><br>Immediately, she took a step towards Akumi-Jo. Megumi wasn't able to see the girl's death-stare from a moment ago, but even if she could, she would still be concerned about his health. It didn't help that she felt more than a little guilty about bringing up the 'O' word, which felt extremely petty in retrospect. Quietly, she asked <strong>"A-akumi-kun, are you alright?"</strong> in a hushed tone.<br><br>When Akiyama-san spoke to Megumi again, she began fumbling over her words. This <em>was</em> the woman who she was worried about, and she <em>had</em> just strangled someone right in front of her. <strong>"I-uh-uh- Um. Oh-Okay. I'll k-keep it in mind!"</strong> She stammered out. Megumi was far too meek to admit how much Akiyama frightened her, nor how Akumi could be a little... grating at times. It left her feeling torn.

Perhaps he didn't have one. Oh well, she'd never force anyone to take her words of advice, she'd just have to reserve it for another time, a time of which they yet again became relevant, if they ever did.<br><br><strong>"I, uh..."</strong> Amaya started, scratching her neck gently with her clipped down fingernails. Long nails only broke and she was incapable of getting them really nice after how long they'd been reserved to normal clipping, so she'd just continued with it. She used a file to tidy them up, but beyond that, she found filing them down from start to finish to be a painstaking process. <strong>"I'm sorry, I went a bit overboard with your roomma- Friend"</strong> Amaya admitted, the feeling of guilt clear in her voice. <strong>I'm really sorry if it scared you or something like"</strong> Whilst not amazing at reading people, but with Megumi's eyes being incapacitated, for some reason it made it a lot easier to read body language and voice. Perhaps because the alluring nature of one's eyes wasn't as present. Or perhaps it was just her skills having improved enough to read the obvious. <strong>"I, uh... I never meant to actually... Really hurt her, though I guess it sounded, and probably looked, a lot worse than what it actually was"</strong>&nbsp;Her hand moved from her neck to the back of her head, trying to think of anything to say.<br><br><strong>"I think I'm going to go and wash off. My offer still stands though, should you ever have a reason to want to steer clear of her, she seems like the kind of person that you easily get into conflicts with, a bit on edge I guess you could say. It wasn't just flirting, it was a genuine offer"</strong> She said, her voice lightening a little. <strong>"But yeah, I'm gonna go and wash off, I'm sure we'll run into one another again sooner or later, the former rather than the latter hopefully"</strong>

What a crazy start to the school year. Judging by her tone, AJ didn't sound too happy with her anymore. She hoped he wouldn't be too sore about it. The whole issue of gender fluidity was still a new concept to Megumi. She didn't have a very strong opinion about the topic yet, but she was worried that she might have come off as bigoted somehow. In a darker thought, Megumi felt a hunch that AJ would take things the wrong way. With a sigh, she moved on to her first class. No use fretting about it now.

Open<br><strong>Wearing:</strong> Boots, Dusty blue jeans, Army Field Jacket, Field Cap, Aviator Goggles, black Foothills brewery t-shirt<br><strong>Note:</strong> Taking a short cut towards the dorms. Taking a break. <br><br>--------------------------------------------------------<br><br>The heavy steel door creaked as Ben entered the Gymnasium/Auditorium as it appeared to be a short cut to the Dorms on the far side of campus. His heavy boots thumping upon the polished hardwood floor as gold rays from the sun that was beginning to set filtered through the large windows around the top of the building. Dust motes floating in, and out of the rays like snowflakes upon a quiet day. Biscuit stopped, and looked around the Auditorium. Thinking that just a couple of hours ago, the Entrance Ceremony he was suppose to attend was here. He would have met his new classmates, and possibly made friends. However, cause of a shipping error he was forced to ride 1200 miles in two days. He just barely made it before the school closed . Add to this that he had to endure a bullshit ass chewing by the likes of Morooka. Not a very good start to his Japanese scholastic career. There were bright spots though. He did meet some one that was friendly in Ryuuji. But only time will tell if that actually grows into a legitimate friendship, or remains in the Acquiescence phase. <br><br>Finding a seat left out, Biscuit let his duffel drop to the ground and plop down in the seat to take a break. Letting out a deep yawn, it felt like his body weighed a ton. Hopefully taking a quick break could give him the energy to make it the rest of the way to the dorms, and a hot shower.
