(oh my bad! Well, Odis is of course a monster of a dude in general, so it still works)
Odis smiled. His first impression was that this was a child, but his power- being tapped into life itself, he sees it all around like an aura within everything- seemed to indicate an older soul. Jamie's speech was also much more developed than most, though that wasn't a deciding factor in and of itself. "It was my father's. I brought my close friend and a girl we met here, and I maintain it pretty well. No bandits really come out this far."

"As I've already shown, I can manipulate and control wind as well as make fire" Masaki said "I'm not going to tell you how strong my wind and flames are mainly because I don''t really trust you just yet. Raion here has super hearing so if you have a weapon in there and you reach for it, he will know and warn me. It'll be good for when we get there in case someone pulls a weapon on us. Moors here has teleportation and I guess you call it... echolocation kinda. That's probably the best way I can explain it since I don't exactly know. I'm not entirely sure how to explain it other than that she can't see us the way me and you do. It was probably a side effect from when she was born or something along those lines" Sid looked curiously at Moors to see if she would confirm what Masaki said. All he got was the growling stare of the shisa mask. Sighing, he said to Masaki "I'll take your word for it then, I guess. Guess your friend doesn't like to talk much." Or do much else than make people feel uncomfortable. Looking ahead again, he continued "I'm sure you're good people though, hopefully. Everyone just has their own way of living these days, I suppose." He didn't want to be apart of a group though, even though numbers were better in this world. It was just much easier to travel alone. "Does your group live entirely off of stealing though? Surely that would've earned you enemies by now or something? Or people having heard and knowing to avoid the area for the most part. Do you trade at all? Or collect your own supplies?" Besides stealing it, of course. The idea made him snort slightly.

(I saw, poor Jamie is a completely dwarfed by him cx )
Jamie was able to catch most of what the man had said between the easier lip reading of not having to understand any names and the others had quieted down just enough for him to hear just a little better. That slightly lowered volume wouldn't last long, normally things only quieted down when they were actually trying to listen with him rather than giving ideas for a reply halfway through the sentence. "That is true, haven't seen that many bandits for quite a few days. Easy to lose track traveling alone." He let his eyes wander back to the house once again trying to see any sign of the other two he had mentioned. He could see neither of them, which gave Jamie a sense of dread. Two other people that he had yet to take into account and was probably sneaking up on him now to take him down. Presumably to take all his measly belongings. He coughed a bit to try to hide the spike in stress as if it was something caught in his throat. Part of him wanted to inquire about a place to stay, the other part told him to run. run far away before he could be attacked. He couldn't tell which part was the now screaming hoard of spirits trying to get him to do something. Maybe it was both and his own opinion was being buried too deep. Settling for a middle of the road option, he put his hand in his pocket to clutch his pocket knife "Two other people? I take it they are inside?"

The clutching of his pocket knife was not lost on Odis. He could tell there was something there, a weapon perhaps. But despite the danger, he kept his guard down. One might even call Odis too friendly, but yet here was a man sticking to his morals. "Two others, yes. I believe you might find them a bit more difficult to talk to than I, but if you're truly intent on coming through here, I suggest you do. You might find some sort of balance, and even the possibility of settling down." It wasn't a huge probability, but it was there at least. Odis smiled.

Though when she does talk it's usually to voice her opinion, though even that is rare, or I ask her something. I do trust her whole-heartedly since she has proven herself time and time again. As for stealing, no we've actually started to grow some of our own food since we couldn't rely solely on stealing. We do trade for supplies if we need it though not too often to be honest" Masaki said as he put his hands behind his head "I'm sure we've made tons of enemies along the way but we usually take care of them on the spot. We run into a few people wanting revenge from time to time but they're usually not a threat."

(It's fine :3)
Sid hummed in acknowledgement as he listened to Masaki. At least they didn't just steal. "You should consider doing less taking and instead more trading." He glanced back at them. "Whether you can handle yourself or not, it's just not good in most cases to have a reputation like you probably have." And then he went quiet again. Eventually, they made it to their destination, a few breaks being taken along the way. Beside a ruined neighborhood, and a large old parking lot, a huge store stood. Probably had been some sort of market or something before things fell apart. It was clearly modified now, with makeshift fencing and barbed wire that seemed to go around the entire place. He always wondered how long the fencing took to construct, but he never asked. He stopped about fifteen or so feet away, looking up as someone seemed to peep over the edge. "Who are they?" Sid smiled slightly, responding "They want to talk. Open up?' A pair of hazel eyes narrowed in suspicion, but the person soon disappeared behind the fence again to go wherever the opening was positioned. As they waited, Sid looked back at the other three with a small smile before looking ahead again upon hearing the creak of the fence door opening up.

"If you knew how many were actually in our group and the ages of some of them you would take as much as you can. Anything that is useless to us we find someone that can find a use for it and trade with them. It helps the kids in the group survive and learn how to use their powers." Masaki said before they arrived at the farm. When he saw someone look at them he lifted a hand up in greeting and waited for Sid to enter before he would

(Sorry sorry had a lot I wanted to get done this weekend. Im back now though )
Jamie could think of a million reasons to get out of there. Most of them were paranoia filled but regardless, reasons. He stood there for just a second trying to weigh different options and the countless half opinions he was hearing before a single rumble in the distance made his decision for him. There was no way he would survive the night if a storm rolled it. He would die of hypothermia before the sun rose. He hadn't seen anymore shelter he could use nearby so he had two options. One: Die cold and uncomfortable or Two: die while relatively warm. Plus if the crew killed him during the night he could unleash a couple of hundred ghosts to haunt them to death. Jamie couldn't help a smile creeping on his face at this thought. It was the perfect revenge plan and he didn't have to do any extra steps other than hopefully convince the crew in his head to stick around and do their haunting business here. "If you would have me, staying the night would be nice." He finally said, unsure on how long he had been lost in thought.
