Name: Violence of 259 Requirements: 10 Atk Job: Get into a fight. Bonus: Fight someone with a title or throw them out a window/through a wall. Payout: +1 exp, +$150 [OOC: Before current events at the Apartments, after Christmas] Soni sat on the old mossy stone bench, the only place that wasn't wet in the assigned training grounds. That morning had been misty and sprinkly, but now all that remained where gray clouds above, wet concrete around, and soft, distant thunder. This stone bench, however, remained protected from the morning precipitation due to the small clay pavilion above it. Reading through some of the notes she had taken on the students, Soni awaited the next student to show for their training session. Her left leg crossed over the other, and her chin rested in her left hand as her right held the journal.

Drake would be at the institute. Under the guise of a young meta still learning and seeing if this was the 'School for him!' bleh. So stupid. But he was going to check this place out to see what it was all about before he let Gidget come here on her own. As he was walking along on the tour he saw a girl standing out in a little garden like area and he decided to take a detour and see what that was all about.
"Uhm, hello. I'm new here I'm Drake Normans."

Soni's head popped off her hand and away from the book at the first sound of a voice. As she looked at the tall kid with red eyes, she got a weird sense of....familiarity somehow. Something about him seemed like an image from years before but... she couldn't put her finger near it. It was such a faint feeling, a mental aftertaste that she recognized after each second of looking at him.
Logically, though, she knew, somehow, that she had never met him before. But...something... The feeling slowed her words as she returned the greeting.
"Ah Mr.....Normans... Uh let me see," she said as she flipped through her book for the name Normans. Looking up from her book suddenly with a, "Wait-" she realized he had just mentioned his newness. "Right! You're new. That makes sense."
An awkward chuckle fell out as she stood up and walked up to him. Offering a handshake, the instructor smiled with her eyes; "Good to meet you kid."

He would shake her hand with a big bright smile. Even though internally his eyes were rolling hard.
"Oh thank you miss! So, uh, what are you doing out here?"

Soni chuckled. "Whaaaat do you mean? Aren't you here to train with me?"

"O-oh! I was just taking the tour... Is, is this part of it? I-I mean... I don't mind training?"
Ugh this weak guy act was killing him on the inside.

Weird... Xapham hadn't mentioned anything about a tour.
"Well I mean, do you... want to train? And see what it's like?? Or do you wanna keep going on your...um, tour?"
There also wasn't a tour guide with him at all. Which was a little strange. Usually someone like Sybil or one of the other instructors would be with him.

"Yeah... I kinda stepped away from the tour when I saw you."
He said sheepishly.
"But if you're looking for someone to train I can help you..."

The young woman chuckled again. "Alright, yea we can train. So, uhm, let's see.... What do you want to use your powers for? Combat? Or something else?"
The question she was always sure to start with. She was never going to force any child to use their powers for violence.

"I think my abilities are best suited for combat."
He would nod.

"Perfect," she replied as she grabbed her journal. She quickly scribbled down a few things then continued, "Now it is important to remember that it should never be the go-to, we use our powers as defense, not offense. Do you agree?" She awaited his response tapping the pen to her chin and leaning her shoulder against one of the supports.

"R-right! Only as a last resort for our own safety so we don't cause any incidents that could harm innocents or put the Meta populace at risk!"
As if he read it out of the damn brochure... (He did)

"R-right," she replied hesitantly. It felt a little scripted, but oh well. She jotted a couple more words down. "Alright, last question, is there an area of your abilities that you're not confident in?"

"Well... I don't really know. I can see souls and manipulate spiritual energy."
He wasn't lying... but best to not give away his signature ability just yet...

Soni's eyes popped at the description. "Woah, can you see mine? What's it look like?"
