(It's fine ^^
Geez... I still think that's going way overboard and overreacting... >_< )
"I think a lot of people. You have two already." Skaldi chuckled. She was grateful that her own inhuman characteristics were easier to conceal when in public. A simple hat for her ears, and hiding her tail in a pants leg, and she could pass as human. Hopefully the hero would be able to help Ash accomplish the same thing. It was saddening, to hear his story and what had happened to him. He deserved a better life. "Things are not the same here in this city. Every person has a chance to be happy." Of that, she sounded very certain.

"It's not even that cold outside though? Why do you think I'm wearing such light clothing?" Masaki asked

(yeah i thought so too but my stepdad sees it as teaching me a lesson. Kinda glad i moved out already)
"I have one friend and an acquaintance so far. I wouldn't go as far as call the guy I met at the store a friend yet" Ash said with a sigh. Ash wasn't someone that liked to jump the gun when it comes to any type of relationship. He had learned through his trek across the country that people could be manipulative and deceitful. "I hope you're right about that because I think I've suffered enough in my life so far"

"Riddles aren't my strong suit man. Speak plain English." Masaki said with a small huff of annoyance. Riddles were one of the few things that Masaki hated and it was right up there with thunder

"It's not a riddle,and shouldn't be when you are one of those things."Boris responded."You seem to have a more offensive ability such as I."
(To clarify:Boris has a sorta sixth sense that allows him to identify certain traits of powers

Ah okay that's pretty cool)
"Damn you got some sharp senses if you picked that up already from our short little interaction" Masaki said as he held out his hand and snapped. A flame came to life right above his index finger "It's pretty useful especially when I manage to get into fights with thugs"

(Yeah, it's a good thing you did. He sounds like a bully.)
Skaldi agreed with the latter sentiment, only offering an unsure shrug at the first bit but giving an encouraging smile all the same. In spite of what she'd gone through, she was stubbornly optimistic and tried to see the good in people. "Yes... things will be better now. For us both." She trailed off with a sleepy yawn.

"What?I have a sixth sense about these kinds of things."Boris answered as he stared at the flame."Well,thugs aren't exactly hard to beat,but I suppose you're right."He held out his hand,palm up,and formed an icicle.

(it certainly felt like that at times but I do know that he loves me)
"Why don't you get some rest Skaldi. I can keep watch in case anyone comes around. I don't trust many who come into this forest since they usually have guns so I'll protect you if someone does come" Ash said before letting out a wide yawn "Shit now you're making me yawn too. Don't you know they are contagious?" He joked
"Really? You've got a sixth sense for people with powers plus ice powers? That's actually pretty sweet" Masaki said with a wide smile on his face "You're right about thugs not being hard to beat. They're even easier when you know martial arts"

"Or how to just smack them."Boris chuckled."Of course,learning to fight is a pretty good skill to have.Even when all you do is bump into people who then throw you into a river."

"Wait you've gotten thrown into the river by some thugs before? The worst that's happened to me is them getting a few good hits in" Masaki said "Is that why you're bundled up now? Because you got thrown in again?"

"No no no."Boris said as he shook his head."I got thrown into a river by to other things.And I wear this simply because if I don't my power works too well."

(I can relate with that, with some of my relatives... So I get that)
Skaldi looked on the verge of arguing the point, on the basis that Ash needed sleep too, but was promptly cut off with another yawn. "Mhmm..." She smiled at the part about yawns being contagious. With a stretch, she turned and fluffed up her purple beanie that she'd stuffed with soft grass and other plants; a makeshift pillow. Her thick, light green jacket was used as a blanket and within a minute she'd curled up with both, starting to doze.

Ash sat up from where he was laying down and picked up a stick to poke at the fire as it was starting to die a little. He started to tend to it. He started to think about everything that happened today and most of it happening in such a short amount of time. He had started the day with a hunt then later on in the day had been hunted only to chase the hunters away and then he met two people who weren't scared of him. Today had been a pretty strange day for Ash but he didn't mind. He glanced over at Skaldi for a brief second just to make sure she was still there and not just some figment of his imagination
"What do you mean things? You tryin to tell me what threw you into the water wasn't even human or something?" Masaki asked "I think I get it. The warmer your body is, the easier it is to control your power right?"
(sorry for my poof turns out i couldnt stay up any longer with only an hour and half of sleep lol)

(Sure!)
"No,things refer to us,because I don't believe we should be considered human."Boris explained."And in sense,yes.But on top of that I just get seriously cold."He chuckled.

"Now I can see why someone with powers may throw you into a river. Just because someone is different doesn't mean they aren't human" Masaki said "So there's a pretty bad side effect to your powers like me. I can't use too much of my power or I risk my body overheating"

"Yes it does."Boris reasoned."Humans have to rely on others if they want something done.Humans can't kill someone just by snapping.Humans can't control plants or the weather or store powers in a bottle or time travel or change forms.We can."

"Like I just said, even if we are different from normal humans doesn't mean that we arent." Masaki said "We still have our humanity and our morals. When you turn your back on those then you can consider yourself no longer human"

(Samandriel: Yeah, just busy with exams and such. Thanks for the concern. ^^ It'll be over soon and I will be on here more. I realize I said I'd post 'soon' earlier. XD Turns out soon is in a few days. I'll see if I can get a post up today.)

She eventually stopped observing herself in the mirror and returned to the dressing room. This time, she seemed to be gone much longer, and the reason was obvious when she came out- she had found an outfit she very much liked, and her red face showed she was embarrassed in front of him. It was a simple white shirt, with a red velvet jacket over, and black jeans that fit tight. A very simple outfit, very civilian style. Hornet held her arm and didn't dare meet his gaze as she exited. "W-Well?" --- James grinned with one side of his lips, and snapped again. This time, there was no explosion- the metal on top became heated instantly, and the air around it, chilled. He had exchanged heat from the air to the metal in a thin cone above it, and now, the metal was heated enough that it began to melt rapidly, like thermite, eating away in a straight down fashion. Isaac rolled back onto Karma's seat, and got her going right after Zed. Once in position, he revved hard once, just to hear her purr. "What's the plan, boss man?" The young hero called over his shoulder. He hadn't the feintest clue how to get out. (And here we go. Back to the adventure. ^^) The door to the dressing room squeaked. Waro turned away from the window, and his gaze settled on Hornet's red face. "Careful, your skin's going to blend into that jacket of yours," he teased with a slight smirk. --- The metal flooring melted away, revealing a deep, gaping hole. It was too dark to see the spikes bottom, or the metal door on one side of the drop off without light assistance. Another part of the metal flooring, if melted, would reveal another hole that fell into a steep curve. It was impossible to see the bottom of that tunnel, but it too was blocked off by more metal at the end. Zed hopped onto the back of Karma, crouching lightly on the seat with his back to Isaac's. He pressed some sort of buttons on his hips, and straps sprung out, securing him to the bike. "Go down the track." Zed held his tablet in front of him, tapping it with utmost speed and concentration. In one corner of the screen, he kept track of the intruder's location. Potential energy huh? That was a tricky one indeed. "Right!" Zed ordered suddenly, as a door that was beginning to close came into view. Apparently, he was keeping track of their own location along with everything else. The door led to a long hallway, about eight feet wide and eight feet tall. Countless doors riddled the sides. "Tell me more about your brother."

"I doubt you lost your humanity and morals because I'd you did, then right now we wouldn't be talking and you'd be going around killing people like some type of beast" Masaki said "Makes me wonder what happened to make you think you are no longer human"

(And a little bit of Rosie, if you're okay with that, Broken. ^^)
Rosie sat in the waiting room, anxiously waiting Jerome's results. She felt responsible for his poor eyesight. She wished there was something she could do for him... Something that she could to return the favour, to even the odds, to return the debt she felt she owed him. The only way she felt she could to that, was help him out when his eyesight was bad and get stronger, so he wouldn't have to protect her anymore. Maybe the doctors could do something about his eyesight. She hoped so. That way she'd be a tiny bit less indebted to him, and he'd be happier. Her legs bounced as she sat, watching the ebb and flow of people through the waiting room.

(Well right now he's on the fence but he's gonna end up as a villain)
"Well,most of us end up going underground because we're considered "bad guys" due to the whole fire vs. ice cliché."Boris answered."Consider yourself lucky."
(I'm down Light,they're at some hospital right?)

Jerome "This isn't getting any better."He sighed as he waved his hand in front of his face."It's not much more than a blur."He took note of the fuzzy outlined shadow going in front of his eyes.He stood up with another sigh and started off towards the hospital,his hands running along the sides of buildings,guiding him. (Yup! I guess so. I guess I skipped a little bit of time.)
