We have added a few things to the requirements to power and ability upgrades. Be sure and read the details in the most recent update when you request a new power / upgrade.
Well, its the weekend here at MHS. Wouldn't it be great if all schools started on a Friday for the first day of school. What a way to start off. You get a weekend right after your first day. Well, this is because we are done with the first day of class. How so you ask. As you only went to one class. yes, but I am sure that doing the same thing for each class would get boring. So the one class you experienced is basically how all the classes are going to be.
Teacher posts role. Day gets started, end of class happens, everyone goes to their next class, or home..
Well, ezboard still hasn't confirmed anything on a final date when everything is changed over to Yuku. And we are working on what to do next. We all want user friendliness after everything is changed away from Ezbaord, and we are trying everything we can to ensure that we have just that when we are at a new board hosting site.
We have a guest book. Take a look. If you haven't taken a look yet, be sure and do so. ^_^

New Student (Kobi/Open)
It was Saturday morning, and most students were still asleep, regaining what they lost after a week of waking up early for classes. The sky was bright and clear, and the sun was shining down on campus. It was eerie, the normally-bustling campus almost completely empty this morning. But it was peaceful, and that was just how Saori liked it: peaceful, quiet, and devoid of people that would try to hurt her feelings.
A taxi pulled up to the curb of the school's parking lot, and stopped. For a moment, it stayed there, as the girl within gathered her courage. She didn't want to come to a new school, to come to see new people who might not like her. Finally, she let out a deep sigh, and opened the door of the taxi, stepping out and onto the sidewalk. She turned and glanced at the taxi driver, and frowned. He was waiting for her to pay him. She didn't speak to him, hadn't spoken the entire trip from the airport to school; she simply reached into her pocket and dug out a roll of cash, which her mother had handed to her before she came, and gave it to the driver. He drove away, leaving her alone.
Completely alone...
A deep sigh escaped her, as she stepped towards the school. A breeze picked up, which was fortunate for her. As it passed over her body, ruffling through her long, green hair, a small, almost unnoticeable smile passed over her lips for a moment. She wasn't really happy; she was scared out of her mind. But the wind helped her feel better. She just wished she could fly away from all of this....
Her big, green eyes glanced around the area, at all of the big buildings, fields, and everything else that came with a school campus. She'd been to one back on her island, but it was much less....big. She frowned, her cute little lips pursing unsuredly, before she began to walk forward. Her hands clasped in front of her chest, as she looked back and forth. She was obviously very nervous.
"I wonder where I have to go...?" She thought to herself. "I...Mom signed me up already, right? What do I do now?"
She was so nervous, so confused, she felt like crying. At least there were no people around to see her, to look at her, to make fun of her....and that breeze was somewhat comforting...

Kobita woke slowly as he heard the Taxi coming from a distance. He had been peacefully napping on a bench before the interuption. Kobita, half asleep, closed his eyes and shifted his weight. Disruptions were so very annoying, but his choice of bench resting places wasn't as acute as it should be.
His eyes slowly moved open once again as the Taxi came to a stop and the door on the opposite side of the car opened. He couldn't see who got out through the car (or what...you never know with this school.) The boy slowly rose to a sitting position as the cab moved away.
The boy slowly rose to his feet and walked over toward the girl. He could tell by the way she was looking around aimlessly...that she was a new student and thusly lost. He looked twenty times worse when he first got here though.
"Administration Office?" He said quietly from behind her. He was actually surprising someone. That never happened before. He was as unstealthy as humanly possible. But no, here he was...popping out of no where. No, she probably already knew he was there, but it doesn't hurt to dream.
"If you're new to the campus...you might want to stop there. They give you directions and information like that."

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Despite the fact that Saori was so intent on her surroundings, nervously looking all around her, she missed seeing Kobita sneak up behind her. When she heard the voice behind her, she jumped, and spun around quickly, her emerald eyes opening wide in obvious fear. Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, showing her fear. Then, before her mind even registered what was going on, she lifted her hand up and outstretched her hand, opening her palm to him. The wind around them shifted, and blew forcefully forward, hitting the boy in the chest. Of course, she was still weak in her powers; he may or may not have been knocked off of his feet, but the blow would feel like little more than a simple punch.
When the gust slowed, and stopped, she was still standing there, feet spread wide on the ground. One hand clutched her chest, while the other arm as still outstretched in Kobita's direction. her head was ducked, eyes shut tightly in fear, but tears were built up at the corners of them, threatening to fall. her long, green hair covered her face though, her bangs being long enough to easily hid it from people, though she usually kept it held back behind her ears.
Finally, she opened an eye, and looked up at the boy. She couldn't see him well through her hair, but she could see well enough to note that he was not only a strange person, but he was a ~boy~. A deep, deep blush fell over her face, and she backed away, very scared. her head was still ducked, so that he could barely see her face, and she didn't try to move her hair out of the way.
"I...uhhm...I'm sorry..." She mumbled, still moving backwards. "I uhhm....I need to..." She kept backing away. She wanted to get away before he got mad, before he yelled at her, before he made fun of her.....but she tripped, and fell back on her ass. A loud, cute squeak escaped her mouth as she hit the ground. This was the last straw; the tears finally began flowing, as she cried. She was scared, and nervous, and lost, and now she was hurt...

Re: New Student (Kobi)
The last thing Kobita expected from this small girl was an attack, and thus he was throughly unprepared for it. The wind current hit him in the chest and he was knocked on his rear. The boy decided to remain there for a few more moments. At least remain there until he realized why he was on his rear. He watched the girl carefully as she backed away.
She swung around...her palm facing toward him. Was that some psychic thing he got hit with? No, probably not, psychics were overly rare. He doubted she'd be one. He had noticed the sound of the wind whipping as he was knocked down. That, that must have been it. Well...he had no idea if that was it or not. But it made sense so he was going with it.
Kobita cringed slightly as he saw the girl trip over herself and land on her behind. 'thats not good.' he thought to himself as he quickly got up and hurried over to the crying mass on the ground. The boy smiled lightly as he crouched down next to her. "Whenever you feel up to it, you need to go the administration offices. There you'll get all the information you'll need."
"You ok?" He asked, following up his earlier instructions. "Kind of a nasty fall there. You need help up?"

Re: New Student (Kobi)
She watched him move towards her, and she tried to scramble away. He was going to hurt her, make fun of her....something.... But he was faster. He was much faster. Everyone was better than her on the ground, she was only at home in the skies. She frowned, and closed her eyes, lifting her hands to cover her face. It was as if she was expecting that would save her; if she couldn't see him, she wouldn't be hurt by whatever he said or did to her. Every muscle in her body tensed, and she drew her knees in to her chest, and sobbed.
But he didn't say anything mean. In fact, it was all nice things. He even offered help to her. Slowly, she lowered her hands, and lifted her eyes to look at him. Around the beautiful emerald irises, her eyes were inflamed and red, and tears streamed down her cheeks. But she stopped sobbing. Her eyes were large, scared, but she wasn't trying to escape anymore. She couldn't believe it. Why would he be nice to her? Especially after she attacked him! She was just so confused, she didn't know what to do...
"Whenever you feel up to it, you need to go the administration offices. There you'll get all the information you'll need."
"I...uhhm...th-thank you.." She stuttered, still very nervous. She didn't get up yet, not knowing what to do. She was still frightened by Kobita, and didn't trust him; but she wasn't crying anymore, and that was better than nothing, right? She sighed, and wiped her eyes, then dried her hands off on her shirt.
"Kind of a nasty fall there. You need help up?"
"I...uhhm...ano....I'm fine...." She mumbled again, proceeding to get up. She really was fine, just absolutely scared and nervous. "Th-thank you..." Her voice was very meek and shy, and it was obvious she didn't speak when she absolutely didn't have to. It wasn't that she didn't want to....she loved to talk....but she as just so shy and scared. She bowed politely to Kobita, and backed away. She knew where to go, and she would go there now.
When she turned around and began walking, her eyes wandered around the area. She only took a few steps, and then stopped, raising a finger to her lip. It wasn't a thoughtful look...it was a look that showed she was lost. Her eyes widened again, as she realized that, though she knew where she needed to go, she had no idea where that place was. She frowned again.
But there was no way she'd turn around and ask Kobita. He'd only make fun of her for getting lost...

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita remained crouched as as the girl thanked him and shrugged off his offer of assistance. He soon began to wonder why this girl was so frightened of him. He understood that'd she'd be frightened by him sneaking up on her...but why she was still frightened of him was a mystery. He was easily (with his arms covered, which they are) the least imposing or frightening person on campus. If not the least he was definately in the top five. He was skinny, and the muscle he had was overlooked due to his skinny appearance. He was a good deal taller than he used to be though. Was that contributing to her fright?
Kobita rose to his feet a few moments after she did, returning her bow as she began to back away and go on her way to the administration offices. While bowing was not a traditional German custom, he had met enough people of Asian or similar decsent to follow suit whenever someone bowed to him.
He sighed slightly as she stopped only a few feet away from where she had started from. He knew pretty quickly that she had no idea where she was going. It was understandable, it was her first day here, and the taxi somewhat unceremoniously dropped her off here. Her parents must not have given her much direction on where to go once she got here, and for some reason the school itself hadn't sent anyway out to greet her as they did for him.
Kobita walked up to her and patted her gently on her left shoulder. Best to use his human hand, considering how she was already extremely frightened. "I guess I'll show you the way. I'd tell you where to go...but I don't give great directions. I'd only make you more lost. You're welcome to sit here and contemplate where you think you should go if you like though."
Kobita smiled warmly, intending to hopefully calm her down some. He had no intention of harming her. Her earlier assault seemed more out of surprise and paranoia than aggression, so he didn't expect any further attacks out of her.
"Either way, my names Kobita. Yours?"

Re: New Student (Kobi)
As she stood there, lost and confused, Saori felt a sudden feeling on her shoulder. Something touched her. At first, her brain didn't register that it could have been Kobita - she was much less scared of something touching her than someone. But when she turned around and saw Kobita, she jumped, and let out a scared (though very cute) squeak. Immediately, she turned to face him, and stepped backwards several times, putting a safe distance between them. As she looked up at him, her eyes very wide and full of fear, she shivered uncontrollably, her hands clasped in front of her chest, just like before.
"I guess I'll show you the way. I'd tell you where to go...but I don't give great directions. I'd only make you more lost. You're welcome to sit here and contemplate where you think you should go if you like though."
She blinked, and gulped. Her eyes averted from his gaze, drifting to gaze at the ground beneath them; she didn't want to look at him, she was far too afraid. It was as if he could see through her, and know all of the terrible things about her just by looking into her eyes. Her hair gently fell from behind her ears, so that her bangs hung over her face, hiding it from view.
He was going to be with her longer. It frightened her; she didn't want to be around people she didn't know. Especially this boy; why did he keep sneaking up on her like that? Did he think it was fun to scare her? She suddenly felt terrible inside. The only conclusion she could come to was that, in his mind, Kobita must be laughing at her every time she got scared. He must be thinking all sorts of terrible things about her. Tears began to well up in her eyes again; but she blinked a few times, making them go away. She couldn't show weakness again. He would only continue to think those awful things.
But she couldn't say no to him. It felt rude of her. Not to mention, if she did, it would only give Kobita more things to say about her....She frowned, and sighed, and then gave him a small nod. But she said nothing.
"Either way, my names Kobita. Yours?"
She blinked, and glanced up at him for a second through her long bangs. She didn't want to say anything; she was afraid it would only add to the fuel he must already have against her. But there was no avoiding it this time. She lifted her head up slightly, but her gaze remained at his feet. There was a moment's hesitation, before she said meekly, "I-I'm Saori....n-nice to meet you....K-kobita...." She bowed again, simply to be polite. Hopefully that would impress him rather than make him think she was even more strange; she doubted it, but felt it would be worse to be rude.

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita watched with a confused expression on his face as the girl backed away. What was that about? What did he do this time? He looked down at his hand to make sure it was indeed his left hand. It was, so he probably didn't tap her too hard and it did as he intended. Well...kind of. He hadn't intended her to grow even more frightened.
He was having the hardest time understanding why she was so frightened of him. He had barely touched her. He didn't remember ever getting scared when someone touched him. Well...he did, but for an entirely different reason. At least he speculated it was a different reason. Communicating with people seemed to be something he wasn't particularly good at right now.
He was somewhat scared for this girl. She wouldn't last long here...always frightened and scared, especially with some of the insane people who were on campus.
"Saori, a pleasure to meet you." He said a warm smile returning to his face. He had to find someway to keep her from acting like a panicking shrew. "I apologize for sneaking up on you the first...and evidently the second time. If you would like, I'll walk a good ten feet infront of you. You can make sure I won't sneak up on you then."
He was very tempted to have a funnel sneak up on her, as a joke, but it would probably give the girl a heart attack. He turned and made his way to the administration offices. Watching over his shoulder to make sure the girl was following.

Re: New Student (Kobi)
She noticed that he was looking at her strangely. While in reality, Kobita was worrying about scaring her, in Saori's mind, the look seemed to be a bad one. She could tell he knew that she'd been scared by him; and he must be making fun of her in his mind for it! She frowned, and her eyes grew wide. Immediately, she looked away, her eyes falling to the ground once again, as she clasped her hands in front of her. The quick movement of her head caused her hair to fall, once again covering her eyes from view. And this made her happy; maybe if he couldn't see her, no matter how much he ridiculed her, it might not hurt as much....
She sighed. And then, she realized something. Her eyes jerked open, and she gasped - although it was barely audible. Was that why he snuck up on her twice?! He must think it was funny. Immediately, she closed her eyes tightly, holding back the tears, as she lifted one hand to her chest. She seemed even more scared now than she was before.
"Saori, a pleasure to meet you."
Once again, her eyes shot open. She lifted her head, so that she could glance at him, just for a moment, through her hair. Then, she nodded just slightly, and bowed. No matter how scared she was, she wouldn't be rude to him. "Y-Yes....y-you....t-too..." Her voice was low, very shy. She hadn't wanted to speak, worried it would make him ridicule her in his mind even more.
"I apologize for sneaking up on you the first...and evidently the second time. If you would like, I'll walk a good ten feet infront of you. You can make sure I won't sneak up on you then."
Without looking up at him again, she blinked. Though she'd been hoping that he hadn't noticed she'd gotten scared, she was sure he did. And now, his words proved it. She closed her eyes, she wanted to just sit down and cry again. But she wouldn't...not in front of this boy....he must be thinking she was so weird, that something was wrong with her for her to have gotten frightened. And now he was even offering to walk in front of her! Was he being sarcastic, actually ridiculing her with his words?
But shy little Saori did not say what was on her mind. If she was wrong - she hoped she was, but didn't believe it - he would take it the wrong way, and hate her. It could actually be worse if she acknowledged it.....She just nodded, and sighed.
"I....I'm fine....l-let's go...."
She waited for him to lead the way.

Re: New Student (Kobi/Open)
(OOC: It said open, so I hope you don't mind.)
On most Saturday mornings, or any weekend morning for that matter, the school grounds are usually devoid of life. For the most part still, that is true. The exception to that this morning is Kobita and a new student that are making there way towards the admin building.
Aswell, another body to add to the small number of people that are up early, Merciah is walking in the same direction, towards the same building though a different part of it. As Miss Hanabishi's Nurses office is part of the same building as the admin building, and that is Merciah's destination he sees Kobita, someone he has met a few times before, and the girl, of which he hadn't met yet.
When he is finally close enough to the two students as they all make there way to the admininstration building, Merciah offers a slight bow of his head. "Good morning Kobita." He says simply enough, expecting the girl to introduce herself if she so pleases.

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita turned his face forward as she responded, intending to hide the pondering look on his face. Everything he did seemed to scare her more, which was the exact opposite of his intention. How would he be able to make her more comfortable? At the moment, not looking at her was the only thing he could think of, other than simply leaving. Leaving would be counter-productive though. She'd probably still be scared in addition to lost. That would be the worst situation to put her in.
Kobita looked down at his feet, the answer to his question continuously escaping him. It shouldn't be all that difficult to accomplish should it. He was shy and jittery when he first got here too, what did he do? Well...granted, he didn't look like he was going to break down and cry every other sentence, but still, it shouldn't be much different.
Kobita was snapped out of his pondering as he heard Merciah's voice. He wasn't someone he usually talked to or hung around with. He didn't really hang around with anyone anymore but even when he did Merciah wasn't someone he saw often. He was surprised he even remembered his name, considering they only saw each other once or twice.
"Oh...hello Merciah." Kobita stole a glance at the girl behind him. He hoped she saw him coming. He was used to being surprised by now, but even someone as unstealthy as him managed to sneak up on Saori and she was frightened extremely. He was worried how she'd react to someone else mysteriously appearing.

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita turned around, but did not start moving. So Saori simply stood there, her hands on her upper chest, one clasped atop the other. And she waited. She didn't know what he was doing, but her eyes remained on his back, watching, ready to mimic the movements his feet made when she saw them in her peripheral vision. But he didn't move. He seemed to be waiting for something, lost in thought.
And then another voice. Once again, she was caught completely off-guard by the newcomer. She had been so focused on Kobita - and not thinking of the possibility of another person showing up - that she didn't realize that Merciah was approaching behind her. At the sound of his voice, she jumped again, spinning around immediately to see who it was. In the process, she backed up, moving away from Merciah - and inadvertantly towards Kobita.
When her wide, scared-looking eyes fell upon him, she only became more scared. This man was much more intimidating than Kobita; he was bigger, physically built, and even seemed to give off a slight glow. Which didn't make Saori more comfortable. In fact, tears began to well up in her eyes as she saw this other boy. They just kept coming after her, sneaking up on her, and scaring her half to death!
"When will this day end?! I want to go home! I want my mother, and my father, and my brothers!"
Merciah gave her a smile, but by that time, she was standing behind Kobita. He may have scared her as well; but he at least ~seemed~ nice, whereas this new person seemed much...worse. She ducked behind Kobita when Merciah's eyes found their way towards her, and closed her eyes tight, Her whole body was shivering from fright, and she was concentrating hard to fight back the tears.
There was no way these people would like a girl like her.....they must be making fun of her, by sneaking up on her and scaring her! She half expected someone else to do it to her again.

Re: New Student (Kobi)
As the girl jumped when Merciah greeted Kobita, he wasn't exactly sure how to react. Not being a person of too many words, Mrciah simply looks at Kobita, then to the girl and back again. "Did I intrude on something?" Merciah asks, unsure exactly what might be happening to cause someone to be so skittish around him. As most people see his quiet demeanor as unfrightening, this is not something he is usually used to dealing with.
And so, Merciah decides that if he does seem imposing, he decides to end it simply enough. "Forgive me for frightening you. I am Merciah Forigaln. Simply a student at this school. I do hope that you enjoy your stay here, and if you need anything at all, I am willing to provide help in any way I can, as I am willing to do so with all my fellow students." Merciah says with a bow towrads the girl.
"Perhaps next time I see you I won't seem so imposing." Merciah says and simply with a nod he begins to continue on his way towards the nurses office. "Good day to you two." He completes as he begins walking away.
(OOC:Sorry for being absent these past few days. I was really busy with life. Also, after today I probably wont be on again untill Thursday or Friday. Again, Sorry.)

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita watched as the girl backed up toward and eventually behind him. While Merciah wasn't exactly a scary person, well, the silence was scary sometimes but he wasn't a bad person, he was much more physically built than Kobita. While he looked strong and powerful, Kobita looked skinny and...skinny.
The boy held back a sigh as the girl trembled behind him, it was going to be difficult for her here if she was that scared around people. Half of school life was talking to people, whether they were teachers, or really anyone at all.
Kobita shifted his stance to shield the girl from viewing Merciah. It wasn't anything personal against him, but she needed to calm down, and seeing Merciah wasn't helping. Maybe if he could shield her from him, or at least give her the impression that he was, she may calm down slightly.
Kobita let out a sigh as Merciah turned to walk away. He gave a slight wave to him as he stepped forward and turned around to the girl. How could he make her feel more comfortable?
He sat down on the pavement to think of what he could do. His chin resting on his hand. That was when he came to a conclusion. She wasn't comfortable, so he needed to get her to do something that was comfortable. "So, Saori, what do you like to do?"

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Saori blinked as she peered around from behind Kobita at the new boy. He spoke to her, but it only seemed to scare her more. In fact, as soon as she realized his words were directed towards her, she ducked again, hiding her entire body behind Kobita. When he stepped in between them more, to hide her from view better, Saori blinked and looked up at him. Her body stopped shaking a little, though her arms were now across her chest, hands clutching the opposite arm, as if that would protect her.
And just like that, Merciah disappeared. Saori blinked a little, before stepping back, away from Kobita. Suddenly, she saw him in a different light: he protected her from Merciah. Though it didn't mean much, and didn't prove that he was a kind person, it made her begin to trust him a little. But she was still afraid to stand so close to him. Her emerald eyes followed him as he sat down on the ground; though a blush appeared on her cheeks, she said nothing for a few moments.
By now, the shaking of her body had gone away completely. She seemed much more at ease; though her wide eyes and the way she held one hand at her mouth showed she was still nervous, and still very wary of the whole situation. Yet her eyes didn't leave Kobita; it wasn't an uncomfortable stare, and it didn't mean anything. In fact, by the way she held herself, it was likely that Kobita would realize that she was staring at him because she was amazed by his actions, and happy that he'd treated her in such a way.
"So, Saori, what do you like to do?"
She blinked, and then a blush filled her cheeks. Immediately, her eyes averted from him, looking at the ground beneath her. "Oh...uhhm...uhhm..." She stuttered in her meek voice. "I...uhhm...l-like....l-lots of things...." Her blush deepened. "Why...what...what do you like to do...?"

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita smiled warmly at her response. He suspected such a reaction. Well, the first half anyway. He didn't expect her to turn the question around on him.
She didn't look nearly as scared as she did before. She still looked frightened of him, but it was significantly less evident. She wasn't shaking anymore...which was definately a great first step.
"Oh no, you're not getting out of it that easily. I like a lot of things too" He spoke, maintaining a smile on his face. "I'll help you out a bit, whats your gift? Why are you at MHS? Not many normal humans come here. Most of my hobbies have something to do with my abilities. What is your's?"

Re: New Student (Kobi)
She frowned, although it wasn't easily seen. Her head was lowered, and her bangs were still covering her face; also, her fingers were over her mouth, in a nervous, thoughtful way. It seemed that Kobita wasn't going to make this easy for her; which really bothered her, as she felt so nervous talking to someone she barely knew. As he spoke, not answering her question yet throwing another one out there, she sighed, and stood there, too nervous to say anything for a few moments.
"I....I c-can.....control the wind...." She stuttered, her meek little voice so quiet Kobita would barely be able to hear her. She wasn't ashamed of this; she was ashamed of the extent to which she could do it. She hoped Kobita wouldn't ask too much more on the subject. She said nothing more; it was too difficult to talk to him after knowing him for such a short time.
She was slightly curious about his abilities, though. Her eyes were now on him, her bangs hanging over one eye, hiding it from view. One hand was still at her mouth, fingers curled up, while the other hand was down in front of her skirt, balled tightly into a fist. She still looked very nervous and a little frightened; but not nearly as much as earlier, when she'd begun crying.

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita smiled, even if everything else went bad the rest of today, he at least knew what had knocked him down earlier. At least part of his curiousity would be sated. "So that's what you knocked me down with there earlier huh?"
After he spoke, he rose to his feet. He didn't need to stay seated and was having trouble remembering why he sat down in the first place. He quickly brushed the dirt off his bottom. "Ok, you want to see mine? You gotta promise me you won't get scared ok?"
He wasn't going to show her anything to scary, girls seemed to enjoy his funnels. The small cylindrical objects weren't very scary looking. Such an unimposing object however was quite brutal for its normal purposes, but keeping people entertained was a suitable fall back purpose. The only part he was worried about her being scared of was his arm. She didn't seem comfortable talking to people, see a metallic arm would probably scare her much more than he had this whole time. "My arm is artificial...it might be somewhat frightening. Just don't worry ok?"

Re: New Student (Kobi)"Ok, you want to see mine? You gotta promise me you won't get scared ok?"
She looked up at him with big, round eyes, her hand still at her mouth, fingers curled up, giving her a very cute, nervous look. She hesitated a moment, before nodding shyly, agreeing not to get scared. Obviously, he wasn't out to make fun of her with this next move; he'd been looking out for her, trying ~not~ to scare her. She smiled a little at this thought, blushing slightly.
She blinked as he continued. An artificial arm? Somewhat frightening? Her hands clenched tighter, as she expected to see something horrible. Of course, her expectations were much worse than it really was, especially when fueled by his words. But she nodded again, letting him know she was ready. Both hands were now clasped together, index finger pressed against her lips nervously.
Her eyes stared up at his face, as she waited for what he would do next.

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Kobita nodded and slowly rolled up his right sleeve. The metal gleamed in the sun light as he let it stay there for a few moments so Saori could see it and get accustomed to it. He couldn't help but smile at the expression on her face. He couldn't tell if she was still really nervous, or really expectant, or both.
"See? Its not that bad." He said calmly turning the arm around so she could see all of it. "Now watch closely. You see that whole here?" He pointed to the point on his arm as he asked.
Slowly, the funnel came out and hovered infront. Normally, he'd have it come out much faster than that, but she didn't seem like she could take a surprise like that. He made the funnel slowly spin around in a circle infront of her before resting at eye level. "You can grab it if you want."

Re: New Student (Kobi)
Saori cringed a little as he rolled up his sleeve; but that was before she saw what was underneath. She'd really been expecting something rather scary, only to find that his arm was, in fact, rather cool. When her eyes fell upon the steel, glinting in the sunlight, she blinked a little, tilting her head curiously to the side. Cautiously, she stepped closer, both hands still clasped together at her mouth, giving her a look of nervousness and interest at the same time.
And then he pointed to a spot on his arm, and she nodded to him, looking at it with intrigue. She was quite curious, as she stared at it cutely, waiting in anticipation. And then, when something appeared, she squeaked and jumped a bit; she knew it was coming, and it didn't come out slowly, but it was a little surprising at first. She blushed a little at her reaction.
As it floated over to her, she took a small step backwards out of instinct; Kobita had promised it wouldn't hurt her, and she was beginning to trust him...but this odd little thing was still kind of scary. She blushed deeper as she looked at it, then she glanced over at Kobi shyly.
Upon his offer to touch it, she obeyed.....not because she really wanted to, but because she was a shy, submissive, obedient person. Slowly, one hand reached out, and she let her fingertips graze across the metallic surface of the object; it didn't feel very special, any different from any other piece of metal....but it was still quite odd.....and somehow, cute.
She giggled slightly, and gave Kobita a small smile, but didn't say anything. She wasn't the talkative type....and besides, she didn't know what to say.
