Sverre gave her a smile. Well, a smirk. Maybe. He loved that she sorta got how he felt. He knew she didn't, but she was probably close enough. He farewelled waved silently to see her off. He shot Oda a text of the plan to move to an apartment with Nyanko off campus.. The phone rang not 15 seconds after he sent it. "Erre," she said sternly in Norwegian, "You should run these things by me BEFORE you go ahead and set things like this up" "Sorry, I thought that-" "She cannot stay in the room you have com campus?" "It's too small for me to live there, yet alone two. The officer said that I need to keep safe, that I can trust the guarg and that that guard is in constant contact with me." There was a pause as Oda thought about it. "Living away from the security of the school is a good idea though?" "People know where my school is, they won't know where I am if I move away over the holidays. I will be with one person I know than with a whole dowm with people we don't know." "Where will you live?" "Nyanko said that her contacts in judgement can get us a place" "...I see. It's my job to look after you you have to keep me in the loop okay?" "Okay, bye bye." "Sverre wait I-" He had hung up too early.
He thought about what Jinx said to him that morning. He needed to make sure. He opened up Haru's contact to send him a message. "It's Sverre, Sorry I had to leave so abruptly, I was behind schedule. What time are you free tomorrow? It's really important that I talk to Index. She might be wrong but I want her to stay safe." While he was texting, one with an apology none the less, he thought about Will again. Sverre used his laptop to hunt down his contact details. Once he had them and copied them into his phone, he tested to him. "This is Sverre, you details were harder to find. I don't know what you did to make you angry, can you please tell me?" Sverre laid back in his bed. He pressed the nurse call to ask for more chocolate milk.
"Sverre, wait, I need you to- Sverre? Sverre!" Oda placed her phone in her pocket, "Kid, I love you, but you can be an upright pain sometimes." She threw out what was left of her take-away chai latte and trotted off back to her car back to the hospital. She looked back to a file of photocopied sheets on the passenger seat. "Nyanko Teni," She said to herself, "I can trust you with him I think." she said as she thought over the supposedly brief files which seemingly had holes although out. She drove impatiently through the city's traffic, itching fingers tapping the steering wheel. As she made her way back she had her hands free phone going, explaining to the Anti-skill cheif, the school officer (the one that was most involved with her client was very annoying, and she reported this to her superiors back in Norway.
When she finally got back to the hospital, she confidently and coldly moved directly at the ward administration. The Nurse recognized her, "Are you hear you see Pål Bjørn, Sverre ma'am?" "No, would you tell me where Teni, Nyanko is please?" The nurse lead her there but the door was closed. She then saw the pink haired girl hobbling back to her room down the hall. Oda headed directly toward's her her heel confidently clopping against the linoleum floor. She smiled warmly and offered her arm as support, "Good after noon, you need some help back to your room my dear?"
Once they were back in her room Oda wanted to speak about specificities that come with living with Sverre. Nyanko returned at Sverre's counselor and legal repetitive. "Nyanko is it? You remember me from the beach? You have said that you will be Sverre's guard, and he has told me about your idea," Her look turned into something that would be given to the trainer of an abused pup, "but I wanted to speak with you about him before the Anti-Skill cheif did. Firstly, I want you to know that a place for you is being found already - You're welcome. You will be moving in tomorrow at the earliest."
Oda went over his condition, his medications, his quirks (like his obsession with chocolate milk, his affinity to his beanie and the personal value of that chain around his neck which was the last thing he had of his late grandmother).
[ooc - respond to this, the rest happens later in the day] Sverre was so bored he ended up sleeping again. He was awoken by the doctor and Oda, with a fresh set of clothes, coming in to see him. "Erre, get dressed, we're about to go" She said warmly. "Yes, you should be okay. If your head begins to hurt past the management of basic painkilers please come in again but there's not much else we can do for you. Get plenty of rest and mind you head for the next week or so." The doctor advised. "I'm not in trouble?" "No Sverre. Besides, This might be your last night before moving into your own place. I'm clearing it up with the school and security services now. You should be safe until then" Oda reassured him as she filled out some paperwork to have him discharged.

The boys near Will stopped using their new found powers and gathered around him. One offered an MP3 Player to Will, "Here, it's just a song, but it totally works. Now we won't be taking (please do not swear) from all the other kids. Try it, I bet with your powers you could be as high as a level 4. "The others nodded and laughed along with him most agreeing that their lives would be better off. Will could remember Nyanko saying it was dangerous and needed to be stopped, but she was a level 4, she had reason to try and protect the use. The music player was still being held out by one of the boys towards him, the others had split off slightly and were using their powers again. _______________________________________________________ As Garasu moved towards one of the spots that had been listed as a level upper hot spot she notices a group of about eight guys all splayed out in and around the alley way deep in some conversation or other. Brief listening to them nets her the knowledge that these guys know something about the level upper. As she walks towards them they turn their attention to her with a questioning look. _____________________________________________________________
Nyanko breathed in as she left the room not used to being honest about her powers or conditions. As she struggled down the hall towards her room the Oda woman approached her. Even though she knew she was about to get a talking to, she was thankful for the help. When she was finally resting on the corner of her own bed she looked up smiling,"Yes, I'm Nyanko, Oda-sama. I remember you from the beach." She was unmoved until the you're welcome came down. Her eyebrow rose at this indicating to a trained observer like Oda that she was irritated at this. This irritation maintained itself and rose up and down as the conversation kept moving. When Oda finally stopped and gave her a look to check for understanding Nyanko finally responded. To the untrained eye it appeared as if she was fully upright, she knew that she was using her powers to remain comfortable. Her hands were on her hips, "Well now that I'm fully versed in counseling, being a care nurse, and mother do let me take my turn with you on Sverre because clearly you have only ready plenty of reports."
She was glaring, "First of all, you're welcome, I'm glad I could help Sverre because he is my friend, but that doesn't mean you and your government aren't indebted to me." She saw Oda moving to respond and she shook her head continuing right through the woman, "Yes, I'm sure another Judgement officer would have done fine. They wouldn't have stood on his toes at all. Really I'm not that special in this scenario." She tossed her hair over her shoulder, it was a trained movement that she'd learned made people feel like she was speaking down to them, "I'm doing you guys a favor here, and I'd appreciate it if you pretend you thought I was competent enough to watch over a thirteen year old with problems. In fact, it would be nice if you treated a level 4 psimaster like maybe she's better equipped than you for it." Oda had finally noticed the pink glowing rings around Nyanko's eyes.
Nyanko hadn't really ceased glaring, she'd just begun to talk more quietly, " You're acting like he isn't a normal child. Do you really think he's the first level 5 with that level of power? Tell your government to ask for files on the one we call "Accelerator". He isn't the first or the last kid with obsessions involving chocolate milk or hats. When I was his age I wore cat ear head-bands for everything and I ate loli-pops all day. Despite this, someone has to make you tuck your shirt in and comb your hair at some point. I'm not going to pander to his will, he's going to have to learn to get along with those around him. The way you people do things is making him ill-equipped to deal with those around him who don't have problems that allow them to understand."
She finally sat down her arms folded at her sides, " I will protect Sverre, you can have no doubt of that. I will protect him from everyone, and if that includes you, well then just remember, it is you're government that asked for me to be taken from active duty for this." She looked downwards her voice quieter, "You shouldn't have come here on your own, Sverre deserves to be involved in this. He's not a child."

Garasu hesitated for a bit while she listened to the people at the location, she noted the extreme lack of reflective surfaces in the area, the walls were concrete and brick, with only a few small windows around if things turned sour she had no doubt she would be at a rather extreme disadvantage. She needed to get stronger though. She took a deep breath, put on a smile, and walked towards the group with the compact mirror concealed in her hand. “Uh hi… I couldn’t help but hear you guys talking about the LEVEL upper… I want to get one… am I able to get one from you?”

The dilemma increased, "just a song", sounded so simple, a shortcut to level the playing field, equal out the imbalances of mutation. Yet Will knew it was a bad idea, after all, it reeked of problems. It was too good to be true... Yet Will couldn't help but feel curious about his potential, of e just listened. A slight breeze now could be a tornado later. He took the MP3 player, reading the file on the screen. "LevelUpper.Mp3," now he knew the file name. The power felt irresistibly close. Yet he couldn't. He handed the player back reluctantly, before mumbling something about being busy, and running off back into the block of apartments. He'd left his door open in his hurry, so he could still here the group on the ground below from the corridor. He sat on a chair next to the kitchen counter, rested his chin in his hands, which were leant on his elbows. He began to think about what'd just happened, with an unhealthy amount of regret. It sounded like steroids for Espers, a quick fix, instant power. Yet he knew there were adverse effects to.... Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his laptop, lying next to the fridge. He walked over, knowing fully well what was about to be done. ------ It'd taken him ten minutes to find the file, and another ten to download it, due to his poor connection. Now it sat tantalisingly on his hard drive, while he sat trying to forget it was there. (Don't think he's not gonna use it )

Oda seemed stern at first but she softened. "Yes, and you will be fiscally compensated for you services, Name a price for a week and the Norwegian government will pay you that at the end of the week if you do keep him from harm." She looked down at her phone which had a missed call from people she contacted about the apartment. "You have no idea how much we were hoping you would say yes, He trusts you and it takes a lot of earn his trust. Nyanko, I'm sure you're very capable accommodating him." She wanted to site her legal experience, she wanted to show her a degree in childcare but she restrained her self. She needed her to be in the best mind set, whatever will lead to the least harm while the Big Spider were dealt with.
Nyanko had stopped glaring at her a bit after her tirade went one Oda continued, being as agreeable as possible. She tried to contain the look of surprise on her face "He trusts you enough with a secret? He broke a promise for you?" and to the mentioning of straightening his shirt, "He let you change his habits? He likes making you feel comfortable, he's developing faster than I had anticipated." Oda looked so proud. Her professional screen was let down for a second while shaking her head with a huge grin, "I had followed his case since he was 6 you know? He couldn't even talk back then," her tone for him was almost more motherly at this point rather than that of the legal carer she was suppose to be, "and now he's come so far as to be in crowds and accommodate other people." She gained her composure again, but she was still being as warm and negotiable. "Yes, I think it's best for his development that he stay with you now. I've been too busy to over see this, I definitely - he definitely made the right choice."
With cold professionalism, she for all practical purposes disregarded Nyanko's last point with a simple, "That has been considered. I'm glad to have spoken to you more," she said insincerely handing a card to her, "this is my number, If there is any reason he needs legal representation, finacial help or professional counseling than you know who to call." She strode out to discharge Sverre. After that he had to meet up with the anti-skill chief, fill out the paperwork at the school, get Sverre's prescriptions, making sure his monetary increase was coming through, wait for the new adress of the apartment - so much she had to do, just another day.
Sverre looked dully out of Oda's passenger window he was leaning on, his smooshed cheek disrupting his usual, indifferent expression. "So are you excited to have your own place?" Oda asked Sverre. "No, I don't want to change." "But she had a good idea though Erre." "I didn't say I don't want to do it, I said I don't like it." "...right. Is everything in order? Money-" "-Yes" "How about-" "-Yes" "Did-" "-Yes" This was all to familiar for Sverre. He trusted Oda but he also recognised that he was her job. He waited for a reply from either Haru or Will, resending the text messages to them. He also sent a text to Nyanko. "Whn r u gttin discharged? we might get the adress 2morrow. if it is by 2nite pls meet me @ my dorm room. or ur dorm room. wat ever u want."

Aidan had woke up in a great mood. It was a wonderful day out. He went to the back yard to practice his powers. It was getting easier and easier to just bring the pictures off his card into existence. Had tried to bring other installations into existence but was unable to still. Apparently it would take more practice to break that apparent rule. But he knew he would be able to get to level 3 this time for esper tests for sure. Maybe level 4 but probably not.
He had decided to go to the mall in the after noon. He took the bus that he normally did. Nothing event full happened on the way. Once he went to the mall there was not much going on other then the usual.
Around dinner time he decided to get some food in the food court. He sat with some ramen eating and then he heard screaming. He looked over and a bunch of people were running. That was when he saw a small kid walking calmly with some sort of light blue bubble around him. There was a couple other espers around him trying to stop him. One was throwing fire balls at him and they were just hitting his light blue bubble and stopping. The other esper was throwing lightning blots that also stopped at the bubble.
The kid was started yelling. "I'll teach you all for calling me bubble boy". Just as a blue blur shot out and hit the fire esper sending him flying. Luckily he hit a bush keeping him from taking too much damage. The fire esper didn't seem to realize his luck as he jumped up and keep attacking. The two espers were going no were fast. And if was either luck or training that was keeping them from getting badly hurt, but who knew how long it would take till one or both of them was hurt.
Aidan needed to help. He pulled out his cards, first he put a barrier around him self. Then he threw an energy ball at the boy. It hit the bubble again not doing much. The move kind of back fired a bit as it served to distract the fire and lightning epsers more then it did the bubble esper. This gave the bubble esper the moment he needed to attack the other espers nothing them flying, hitting the ground hard.
The bubble epser was about to attack again, Aidan had to move quick. He reached in his pocket. Good thing he had sorted out his cards so he could find the ones he needed. He pupped out a card and summoned the creature he needed just in time.
The blue blur shoot out of the bubble at the two espers on the ground just as a rabbit with a huge shield popped up in between the bubble and epsers. The blue blur hit the large shield but it didn't do much as the shield was very sturdy.
Aidan knew that shield rabbit, would protect the two espers until help could get here. He but he needed to stop the kid fast. The bubble epsers tryed to hit the espers a couple more times only hitting the shield again. Finally realizing that it was futile, the kid turned his attention to Aidan.
"why are you going this?" Aidan asked. The bubble esper just looked at him and smile crazed. "You will never call me bubble boy again". Anouther blue blur shot out smacking Aidans shield, pushing him back but didn't hurt him any. But he knew he couldn't take many more. He pulled out some cards from his pocket and brought forth a large flying eye ball, the eye ball shot bolts at the bubble.
The bolts didn't do much but did divert the attention of the bubble esper. The other cards Aidan pulled out were damage cards, one was a fire ball and the other was a gust of wind. If he could use them together the wind might make the fire ball more powerfull. Hopefully enought to damage the bubble.
The flying eye finally get hit by the blue blur and vanishes. This is when Aidan attacks with the two cards. The fire ball shoots out and then the gust of wind hits it. The ball flairs im the gust and increases in size by three.
The ball smashes into the bubble with a huge crack. The heat was immense, a huge heat wave rushed. Smoke was everywere it was hard to see. The a blue blur shot out smacking into Aidan's shield knocking him back. The shield wouldn't take much more damage. The kid walked forward lauphing, but then the kid coughed. That was it, the barrier wasn't air tight. He would only have one chance.
He pulled a few cards out of his pocket. The first was "rapid draw" to double his speed. The he moved as what was the blur shot at him. At double the speed he saw the blur for what it was, the bubble shooting out in a thin line, still attacked to large bubble but able to shoot out and attack. The he used the other card and ran stright at the bubble. A small bottle has appeared in his hand.
Aidan then threw the bottle at the bubble, and when it his green smoke covered the bubble. Aidan stopped and waited, as the smoke started to disapate hopeing it would work. Once the smoke cleared he saw the kid laying on the ground asleep. Yes the sleep gas had worked. He dismissed the shield rabbit, as he pulled out a healing card and healed the two other espers.
Aidan thought he should leave and let anti skill take card of the rest. His last experience with them wasn't bad but he didn't want to be on their bad side. Aidan felt very happy with him self on the way home. Maybe he would have to join judgement or something.

Nyanko was quiet at the offer of payment, despite her bright standings, she'd always been poor, her whole life had been spent scraping by. Now this woman was offering her any price to do this job. She knew that she wasn't doing it because of that, and it was hard to turn down the money. She would be graduating in two short years, and after that if she didn't have a job or more school lined up life would be hard on her and her older sister back home. All these thoughts played across her face as she looked up. She was calculating the costs of living in comfort at this moment, always good with numbers, "I'm not doing this for the money, but it would be great if your government could send money to my sister and my account that would allow us both to be comfortable in the future and present. After that just making sure me and Sverre could be comfy would be good."
As the comments about Sverre came up she shrugged like it wasn't a big deal, the moment the woman became motherly her attitude calmed and she seemed easy to deal with. "It isn't a big deal, I only untucked his shirt and straightened his collar. Nothing else really, I mean he's a good friend to me if that's what you mean."
She accepted the card with a brisk but polite "origato" watching the woman before her leave. The nurse appeared before her moments later with all her possessions safely sealed in a plastic bag. She hadn't even thought of it, so she only nodded as the nurse told her she'd be discharged as soon as they finished filling some pain medication for her throat and consulted with the doctor. That took about two hours, she had just arrived back at her dorm, bandages and all when her phone buzzed. She lifted it up to see Sverre's text and it took her several moments to finish reading it, "I'm out. I'm at my dorm, I'm going to pack my things up and write a letter home to my sister. After that I'll come over and we can stay at your dorm. I might have clutter, but I'll manage." The same cat icon was attached as usual.
She packed slowly lifting all of her possessions into boxes. The last things she packed were a bunch of her things before she'd come to this city, hairbands, a bag of her favored loli-pop brand that was still unopened, and a picture of her family. She frowned down at it, the realization that only half of the picture was still living made her eyes water. Eventually, she managed to get the many boxes and bags from the building. With that she strode down the street using her telekinetic powers to float the boxes behind her. When she arrived at Sverre's dorm she let out a sigh of relief and exhaustion. She knocked on the door waiting for Sverre so she could move in until they got their own place. The whole time she stood there, she was receiving a death glare from Horochi. He moved up to her grinning, "Nyanko-chan, what are you doing?" "Horochi-san, It is not your business what I am doing." "So now that he is top student you give him your attention?" She gave him a hard look, "I never gave you attention, don't flatter yourself. He's my friend." The way he drew closer and reached out to rest a hand on her shoulder almost made her hit him. He was filth and she knew it. "You should be more careful Nyanko-chan, you are aware that my level four power is enough to cancel your own." Nyanko longed to bend him to her will under the crushing realization that she was not level 4, but instead she turned to the side so he was staring at the side of her head. "Horochi-kun, you are aware that even if you shut my mind's abilities down I can still break your wrist in one of 6 ways taught to me by Judgement. So take it away from my shoulder, and while you're at it take yourself away from me." Horochi let go of her shoulder but remained refusing to stop talking to her about their science class from the semester previous. _____________________________________________________
Finally, Sverre received a reply from Haru. It was haphazard at best, but it got right to the point.
Hey Sverre, I don't think you really understood Index, and it would be great if you'd come over, she's been bugging me about you all day saying I should make you come over again. I might be away when you do, I have to go see a teacher about a place to live for a friend, but Index will let you in. I suggest bringing her food, just so she doesn't bite you thinking it's me. _____________________________
The men finally gave Garasu their attention, "Yeah, we know something about the level upper, I suppose we could give you one. Suddenly he was being prodded by the man next to him and they were whispering. When the man turned back his grin had widened as he and the others rose. One grabbed at a pipe and the others chuckled, "So you're with Judgement. We figured they'd get wind eventually. Good thing one of our boys let us know you were in the hospital." The one that had whispered moved at Garasu first swinging a pipe.

Garasu knew she was in trouble the second she saw the grin and she shifted her weight into a subtle combat stance. She was dodging under the blow even before the thug began to swing. As soon as she was under his guard she jabbed her elbow into his stomach and wrapped her leg in front of his leading leg. His uncontrolled momentum did the rest as he fell face first into the pavement. “Whoa! I’m not a member of Judgment and I’m not here for a fight!” Garasu took a step back with her hands raised in a gesture that motioned for peace it was also a very good pose for self defense allowing her arms to quickly react to most threats.
“Fat chance of you not getting a fight now girlie” The one who shed knocked into the pavement stood up again rubbing his head and spit out a small amount of blood and saliva on the ground. “Even if you’re not with Judgment, I owe you for that last hit, Get her boys!” This time they all charged at once (Though the first one she’d hit stayed slightly back now). Again Garasu dodged the first swing and dealt an unpleasant sounding kick to the groin of the attacker. She blocked a swing from a second attacker and delivered a sharp punch to the assailant’s jaw. She then redirected a third attacker’s charge into the wall, but as she recovered her balance two of the other thugs grabbed her. “Gott’er!” Garasu lacked the range of motion to touch her mirror to either of them so instead she jumped into to one of the few windows above. “Huh!? (please do not swear) she’s an Esper where’d she g-*ungfff*” Garasu exited the reflection from above and landed a drop kick on one of the men who had been holding her that knocked him out cold. “A teleporter?!” “No I saw her in the window before she popped out!” Garasu was still recovering from the fall when the other person who had been holding her earlier shouted to the others “I’m gonna use my ability guys!” Garasu watched confused as first those who had been standing dropped to the ground, followed by the speaker’s body suddenly … blurring? for a moment. The shockwave that resulted a second later knocked Garasu sprawling and senseless in a heap against the wall of the alley and shattered the nearby windows into a fine dust. Her mirror was lying on the ground where she had been standing only a few moments previously and was stepped on contemptuously by one of the people who had already regained their feet. Garasu attempted to stand up but quickly collapsed again still dizzy and disoriented as the men approached. “Well (please do not swear)” she thought to herself.

Sverre answered his door and looked up and Nyanko and Horochi, the latter not giving him a pleasent look at all - which Sverre didn't recognize. He had his phone to his head and a carton of chocoalte milk in his other hand which he was drinking right out of, as evidenced by the chocolate mustache he had acquired - with both hands full he used his powers to open the door. Behind him could be seen books, boxes and cases stacked and organized into piles, a suitcase with clothes in the process of being recklessly shoved in were visible. Nyanko and Horochi stood their awkwardly as he continued to talk to the phone Norwegian, he assumed they assumed they knew Oda, until he hung up on her without even saying goodbye - not uncommon from ending a call with Sverre. "Oda told me to tell you there is ¥50,000,000 in your sister's account and more will coming weekly, I dunno why. Also, one we move in, I have the address, I have to visit somebody, Is that okay with you?" He took another swig of chocolate milk. "Are you coming in already?" he said to Nyanko bluntly, turning to Horochi who he really didn't know or trust, "Not you." he said remaining just as blunt before burping uncourteously. The guy didn't seem to know how to react to the almost animatronic lack of facial expressions or gestures.

Indeed, Horochi looked dumbfounded at the state of Sverres room and his blunt and slovenly behaviour. He was even more surprised at the fact Nyanko was trying not to laugh at this display. Horochi turned to look at Nyanko questioningly, "What are all these boxes doing out here." She smiled as her own boxes floated past Sverre who was still on the phone. She grinned at Horochi most of her attention still on Sverre, "I'm spending the night with Sverre-chan, and I couldn't bear to leave anything alone in my room for the night." Sverre had finally hung up on Oda and Nyanko turned her attention fully to Sverre which caused even more disgust to creep up on Horochi's face as she stepped past Sverre into the room. "Nyanko-chan" She turned from her place behind Sverre who seemed to be holding the door open only for her. "Yes, Horochi?" He looked slightly surprised by her lack of respect which caused him to faulter in whatever he was going to say. So she ended the encounter for him, "I'm busy, and I'm sure there is some textbook that requires your immediate attention. Don't fall down the stairs on your way back to your room. I'll see you next semester I'm sure." He looked surprised at the dismissive tone she used, but the door slammed as he bowed stuttering.
Nyanko turned on the mess that was Sverre's room and grinned, "Well, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that uses the tornado packing method." She nodded as he asked to go out, "Yeah sure. Do you want me to come or should I just stay here?" She was moving towards the small kitchen area and had the fridge open in a flash, "Oh geeze, do you only drink chocolate milk? I'm no longer surprised you're so pale, but the fact you don't have an iron-deficiency is really mind-boggling." She pulled out some of the rotted food tossing it towards the garbage, "well, I guess maybe I'll go get some stuff for dinner, and you can go meet your person. I'll just keep my mind on you if that's all the same to you. If things get dangerous, just think scared."
She walked past him towards his suitcase and began to try and fit everything in while waiting for his response. She didn't seem to be very good at it and after several seconds she looked up at him, "I'm thinking maybe we just don't bring any of your clothes and go shopping. That might be easier." _______________________________________
As her vision cleared she realized that it was not in fact a man approaching, but a woman with thick chocolate colored hair, and the same casual attire as the others. A quick scan of the alley revealed that Garasu had knocked out or tripped most of the other men who had attacked. The woman standing before her looked surprised, "Well now, you made them look like chumps didn't you. Not from Judgement? That's a pity, with powers like your's you will still be an interesting match for me." With this spoken the ground under Garasu began to roil and move like a wave leaping up to smack her, if she didn't move fast, she'd be road kill. She could hear the girl moving like she was running towards Garasu in the same instant.

"We don't have much of a choice," he said blandly on her question on when she should come, "that's why they wanted somebody to forgo normal duty. Where you go, I go. We have to stick together. Oda insisted that I stay with you until they make more progress on the Black Spider investigation and it's safe. Besides, I said tomorrow, after we move into the new address. They don't live far from where we are. You might no her, she lives with Haru Tomako." He turned to look at her, "But I can come to dinner too if you want. I'll pay - I have more money so it makes sense."
He looked like he'd seen a ghost when she suggested he just leave his things there - he liked what clothes he had very much (even though they were varying colours of the same types of buttoned shirts, jeans and hoodies).

The rest of the day had been spent in regular fashion for Will. Fiction and tea, then some music. Yet the whole time, he'd been half listening to the sounds coming through his window. Namely, they'd forced him to download the file to his phone, yet he hadn't been able to listen, purely out of sensibility.
Eventually, he became sick off his own apartment and so decided on a walk around the neighbourhood. It was still light enough to be safe, as the air was at a fantastic temperature. He slid into a thin hoodie, and stepped out the door, taking his phone with him.
------
He was in the far corner of the district, walking along the pavement and mulling over his comments to Sverre. Analysing what the Norwegian said, he'd probably reacted a bit irrationally, but there was something that he'd said, or maybe something in his tone that Will despised. It was likely best that he apologised, to try and cover up his hidden dislike of higher levels.
Will was always inclined to believe in equal opportunity, mainly due to his common decency as a human, after all, few would say they didn't. Yet in this city, students weren't born equal. Most had no hope of gaining higher power, and as much as they liked to call it hard work, being a level 3 or above was largely down to chance. This angered Will over everything, but the guise over his emotion helped to keep friends and reduce enemies. He certainly wasn't in line with Big Spiders beliefs, he simply observed the inequality with dislike.
He pulled out his phone and typed a text to Nyanko.
Apologise to Sverre for me, I was rude.
He sent it without thinking, and while thinking of better ways to phrase it, he heard the sounds of violence from down a nearby alley. It was slightly to early for that. He ran over to the entrance and stared down.
A mess of fallen bodies, a girl he'd never met, but would eventually know as Garasu, and another brown haired one, and it was clear who the aggressor was.
"What... oh for (please do not swear) sake," he said, with unusual exasperation. He was tired of being involved in this kind of thing. Yet he felt a sense of duty, to a girl he'd never known, and reluctantly he stepped into the alley.
The brown haired girl seemed to speak, "Well now, you made them look like chumps didn't you. Not from Judgement? That's a pity, with powers like your's you will still be an interesting match for me."
Will watched in awe as the ground rolled at the girls whim. She was at least level 3 and probably 4.
The decision was instant, a largely "convenient". Remembering the words "you'd be a level 4"
He took his headphones out and plugged them into his phone before putting on the level upper. It was 30 seconds long, so he waited ten seconds before taking the opportunity to yell.
"I think you'd both better stop right now," with arrogance that suggested he was already a level 4.

Jinx got up,having just finished the rest of his research he felt hungry and decided to throw a pizza in the oven. Before he reached the fridge,a cold feeling overcame him,he did not like it,he had felt it before,something was gonna happen,something bad! While pulling on his shoes,Jinx ran outside,currently his first priority was to check on Index and Sverre,secondly would be Garasu,he hoped he would reach whatever was happening in time.
He couldn't afford to fail,if anything happened to any of them,he'd.....he wouldn't....,Jinx banned the thought from his mind,he had to focus on possible threats now,not consequences,he ran towards the place Index was staying as fast as he could,he arrived there out of breath when suddenly he noticed Sverre. What was Sverre doing here? 2 of his targets in the same location? what did it mean? Was this what he was feeling,were both of them going to die?
Jinx was near panicking,he tried to pull himself together but could not manage completely,he stayed out of sight and in a way he had mastered throughout the years,sneaked ever closer,he had to make sure he wasn't noticed yet be ready in an instant should the need arise.
Memories surged through him,he had no idea why and he didn't like it one bit,he remembered sorrow,pain,anguish,torture. His feeling was getting ever worse,he had to take action!
He approached Sverre as the kid was walking towards Index's apartment,"Sverre,it's me" he said,to Ensure he wouldn't be alarmed, "W-What a co-coincidence to meet you here,i was just about to pay a visit to Index to warn and inform her,mind if i tag along?",Jinx stuttered a little,he awaited a response before getting closer,should he get a good response,he wouldn't hesitate to follow though

Nyanko had somehow managed to stuff all but one pair of clothes into the suitcase and was in the process of kneeling on it and trying to close it. Clearly, she couldn't see his expression, but she looked up at it and laughed, "Sverre, I was joking. I'd never throw your things away. Not unless the rotten food you keep in the fridge counts. I know how it is to like things a certain way". She continued to struggle with the suitcase. For several moments she wrestled with it almost like a kitten would with a ball of string. She looked up at him grinning, "If you want to buy dinner that's great." Her grin turned to what might have been flustered or jealousy, Sverre wasn't certain, "That girl lives with him! Ughh!" she seemed to manage to control her emotions and close the suitcase at the same time, "Yeah, I know Haru-san. He's been part of Judgement cases almost as much as Will." she stood up dusting her hands off , "I guess let's go get dinner." she smiled poking his forhead, "And since your government is covering the costs, I may get something sweet to eat." She grinned and he could tell this thought pleased her greatly. He watched her dig through one of her own boxes, finally producing a leather jacket, although the process also unearthed several of the cat headbands she'd mentioned to Oda. One of which during a particularly bad throw landed with a small smack next to Sverre's foot. Nyanko turned blushing slightly as she pulled her jacket on. ______________________________________________
The woman turned looking at Will and grinned, "Two Will make for a great challenge." The ground around Will also began to boil and climb up his legs. She continued her path towards Garasu. _________________________________________

(ooc-yeah, I don't think we need to go over the details of them going to eat, can we just assume they got home so we can get to Jinx' divinatory vision? ) After that night, getting some food (Going to a sushi train then an ice-creamery) Nyanko awoke to find Sverre already cleaned and dresssed. the last of the packable things were backed, he was in his same pattern of clothes, the bothersome untidiness of his cocked up collar as much as the wetness of his hair keeping the untidy mop down. Waking up at 0600 was part of his schedule. He was completely glued to his laptop, a drone of electric guitars and drums audible from his headphones. By his bed was his favourite breakfast - the last carton of chocolate milk. "The removalist will be here at 0900." He said as he noted the movement from the inflatable mattress out of the corner of his eye.
