"I see."Slender hands picked up the cup, gently holding it.Shion didn't feel like drinking the tea at all. The last thing he needed when he had just left the hospital was caffeine.In fact, the only thought in his head was if he had grown strong enough to withstand the pain of a burn if hypothetically, he picked up the kettle and poured its contents over his hand.No, what was he thinking. Losing a few fights doesn't immediately make you immune to pain."Sadako-san, did you hear that Kisai-kun got scouted a few days ago by an agency? It must be a big deal to move up so quickly."He muttered his words, quietly musing over the good fortune for some that had resulted from the widespread destruction. The images of Claudio absolutely wrecking that giant thing was all over the internet- basically burned into the retinas of every civilian who lived close to the site of the incident."But there was 4. . . no, 3 people there other than him who were fighting that thing. I didn't hear anything from them about an opportunity like that, have you?"There was one person Shion remembered over the others. One who would probably appreciate being left out of the picture.Her bombs- the feeling he had using them couldn't be replicated by anything offered by U.A. If he could, he'd like to learn to use military-grade material like that again. I mean, he's already proved himself to be able to handle an anti-tank grenade.Ah, how he wants them in his hands again.Shion caught his thoughts drifting away as a weird space was forming after his last sentence. He might not be all-there today, though he often wasn't elsewhere."I don't understand why. Everyone else was contributing a lot too- I even had to blow up Toto and my backpack to destroy it's arm."

"Oh. . ."As Farrin's strange behavior became more apparent, it seemed like it was becoming rather difficult to ignore for the boy next to him. Juxtaposed against the uplifting message he was trying to convey; it wasn't clear what the look Shion gave the Time Turner meant.Suspicion? Or was it just concern?In either case, the magenta gaze didn't prompt any words or questions regarding what was wrong with Farrin. Perhaps he wasn't ready to unearth what he thought could be happening. . . not just yet.Shion looked towards the distance again, though the creature in his lap continued to stare straight at him."Reason, huh- Maybe that's what's been keeping me going this whole time, and I didn't even know it!"He put on a peaceful smile while moving his view from the buildings in the distance, up towards the clouds that had yet to be stained by the rising sun. Or were there enough of them today to block the rays of light completely?"I thought of that before! There was no reason for me to survive any of what I had to go through, but if I did die- someone would've taken my place! Same with if I never decided to become a hero, or if I was never born!"Someone had to do it, but there was always someone who would take up the mantle of a hero.The view of anything but the sky left his vision as Shion's spine simply let go, allowing him to lie on the grass with Toto held to his chest."Even if I wasn't here. . . there'd still be people who want to do good. It's a happy thought for me!"When one is a child, they are unable to picture a world without themselves. As a part of human development and object permanence, people come to know that the human exists in the reality- not the other way around. "Though, looks like I was born to be a hero in this world. . . Hehe, just kidding!"Shion said in a faux-serious voice imitating that of the male teachers, before returning to his usual cheery voice as to lighten up what could be a disconcerting topic for some.

[Now Playing: Living Game]Shion absolutely could have kicked him upside the head mid-sentence considering the position he was in. Although it was most likely that he'd lose the ensuing fight.But by God was he tempted to do anything to wipe that silly grin off his face.Regardless of his intention with what he said prior, Shion had inadvertently made things worse for himself. Claudio now knew an obvious sore spot that he had revealed and would without a doubt take advantage of that. . . like he was right now.Only if he knew that it would only get worse from here.The youth's look changed from annoyance, to confusion, and finally embarrassment as the cloud began laughing at what Shion sincerely thought was his intention in arriving early. Now he was the weird one! And because of this misunderstanding, all of what just happened would make him look like an unstable freak!He immediately regretted "playing along" with Claudio's weird demeanor from the start. Life threw a curveball at him right as a pattern from men desiring him was establishing a pattern with their indirect methods of soliciting.Actually, calling Claudio a curveball might be the best description he has right now."This. . . isn't happening, ugh-"Came the low voice of defeat.Unable to handle reality, Shion's limbs retreated into themselves as he flopped on the ground red-faced. In a semi-fetal position on the cool tatami, he let out a groan of shame, tears in his eyes from being blue-balled so suddenly.How was he even going to look at this guy in the face again??

[Now Playing: Unchanging]What's. . . that?The moon normally didn't appear at this time of day- even if it was almost night. He looked straight towards the swirling phenomenon, before it suddenly darted towards him.". . . !"Shion's body moved on its own. After suffering so much at the hands of his mind's own recklessness, it was no wonder that self-preservation would kick in above all else.Just as the phenomena landed, he rolled backwards on the pavement he was on. His back hurt from doing such a move on a bumpy surface- but there was no time to think of such things.First of all, eyes on the threat.The youth stood up to take a look at who it was, only for all tension to go away once that youthful voice met his ears."Eh. . ."Despite being covered in bandages, Shion's of expression of surprise was clearly one could laugh at. Though, as he stood up straight his expression changed to slight annoyance.Claudio would see "Broomstick" walking up towards him with such a pouty face, before he'd feel a finger poke at what forehead was exposed underneath the white masses of cloudy hair."I told you to call me "Shion" already, didn't I?"But this complaint didn't appear to be all that serious, as when he readjusted himself with his hands on his waist, a simple happiness overcame the smidge of hostility that was there. A smile Claudio hadn't seen in around three days."Happy to see you worried about me, though. . . Glad to see you're okay!"The incident had resulted in casualties. But the light in the darkness was the fact that no one in their had lost their lives that day- even though Shion had clearly heard that Emilia was in critical condition.At least, the one person he vaguely knew in that group was fine.Claudio was now quite up in his personal space, almost shoving his entire being into Shion's. The youth just lightly held him away by the twisting and shifting shoulders, wondering just how this weird little dude functioned socially being like this."Well, the only one getting in trouble would be you- I've had a permit for the past few years, so I'll be fine." Shion replied calmly, checking his phone case to see if he had said laminated card of paper."But it should be fine. It's not like anyone's going to prioritize some flying hoodlums over rebuilding the city."Putting his phone back in a different bag that was obtained after the old one unfortunately blew up last week, he glanced back to look at the hospital that was right next to both the redhead and the cloud.Portions of the women's ward had their walls blown open and windows shattered. Though the structural integrity of the building wasn't in peril at all, there was still evidence of damage caused in the crossfire of the uprising.It said a lot when even a damaged building needed to stay operational- every other hospital in Shibuya must have had their hands full."Got a broom? Mine didn't survive the mission."Shion looked back to Claudio, no longer musing as much over the city they'd soon see more of.

"Ahaha- you really are perceptive. . ."Shion looked to the side with a bit of an "oh you got me" expression which communicated worry with a bitter smile. Had she figured everything out already? Or hypothetically, was it even possible to lie to her?His attention snapped back to her words as Shion's much awaited answer unpacked itself from the black box. The same one he was unable to, yet reluctant to try and open on his own for several years now.Arguably, this is the most reckless thing he has done.It's not the first time.Neurons began firing around in Shion's gray matter just as much, if not more than a few seconds ago when said activity was monitored by Iphigenia's technology. So many possibilities, half-baked theories like raw dough rising up and deflating with the yeast of simple logic."Death. . . the hypothetical person would be in this group of rare cases?"Quirks as a science so far has only been researched for half a century, not to mention the hiccups the path to progress had experienced over multiple catastrophes. As only a fraction of their true nature has been revealed, a lot of things were up to speculation. Hell, you didn't even need to be a scientist to come up with theories concerning why quirks came into being.And that's why there were so many that believed they were evidence of a "spirit world" or a realm beyond what humans could see.Was the "spirit world" involved in death being part of the catalyst?Or perhaps it was a genetic dead-man's trigger that activated in an effort to preserve it's own existence. Moving from one host to another and granting them the quirk.But can a quirk be so advanced to have a will of its own separate from the person it originated from?". . . yeah."He said after a considerable pause.Any words Recall said after the point of Shion's current fixation seemed to go unheard. He simply stood there and appeared to zone out despite looking her straight in the eyes.Even Toto appeared to take notice, moving their eyes to glance up at their companion."Oh. Well. Yeah! Absolutely! Thank you, professor! I'll definitely see you again!"The youth would frantically shake Recall's hand before turning around and darting out the door. Toto in tow. Footsteps would echo through the empty halls as Shion stopped at a window, flinging it open and jumping out from a height of 5 stories without a second thought.He looked down at Toto as they both fell, eventually taking flight while regaining altitude.They were onto something now.

Unreachable
Unreachable Unreachable That must be what he's thinking.
I always liked it so much when I was being chased as a child. Even as an adult, I always imagine it as a game of tag when I need to get away from a sticky situation!
My body moves how it wants to, even if it's not a real one in the end.
But I'm able to think this, does that make me real?
I look back at the face of the conductor who I helplessly pull through the cart, wondering if there's a reason we look the same. We had our differences, but if all the decorations were pulled back-
We'd both be the same Christmas tree!
I don't even feel the lily pads touching my feet as I skip across thin air over a calm pond. A place on space or earth that I've never been to, and probably never will see.Now. . . I have an idea! One that can keep this exciting chase with this creep going and going!
All I do is jump, allowing my body and bewildered passenger to land on the ceiling which has no water."Wha- that's not how gravity works!'"Duh! None of this is supposed to work!"I say back to him, holding his hand with two of my own as blurs of green, pink, blue, and soft yellow pass us by.
My head tilts to the side to look past the conductor, giving a smug look the pursuer who was clearly getting desperate to catch us!

I could have said that in a better way.Shion wished he could try again with what he said, but at this point they already appeared to be exchanging farewells. Tap.He visibly tensed up at Callisto touching his shoulder, though the wide eyes were soon replaced with more normal ones accompanying a warm smile. Ultimately, he seemed to appreciate it."Ah- right. Sorry about that. I'm still getting used to being an initiator."The youth scratched a bit at his jaw at being reminded of how this all started. It felt like forever ago, even though only around 15 minutes had passed at most.As the man turned to leave, so would Shion and Toto after giving Callisto a wave and a smile. No words were needed, as they would be needed more in the youth's head to think as they walked off.Waste money? He might be struggling. . . Red to green went the pedestrian light, an uncontrolled rhythm of multiple walk cycles crossing the white lines on asphalt.Family. What did that word mean to him?Approaching the booth which sold manju, Shion began speaking to the clerk as Toto, snow strapped to his back looked up at the white sky. Slowly turning blue.It was like a watercolor slowly entering paper, staining it as the fibers greedily ate the liquid.Whether they knew it or not, something had just ended.
And something else had just begun.From now, things can't be the same anymore.

Tofu, harusame, soy milk, bean sprouts, stalk mushrooms. . .
And a bit of gochujang!Before summer would come, Shion thought it would be good to make some nabe. Specifically, one that was more vegetable than meat. Of course, he wouldn't forget the raw egg used for dipping- so plenty of protein for everyone!Despite his academic deficiencies, the youth was relatively sharp when it came to spending. Over half of the time spent in these markets would be on weighing the price and quality, if the cheapest milk would really taste all that different from the most popular brand.Stepping across the small aisle with a shopping basket half-full, Shion reached towards a few bags of udon. Coincidentally right next to Homura's business.Appearance-wise, the look of the U.A. student that had yet to notice his upperclassman was much less glamorous in comparison. The fabrics were cheap, probably manufactured in a south Asian country, and the outfit itself was a mishmash of various items- a yukata, western blouse, and a jacket on top of that.His face seemed soft if not relatively plain, hosting a smile that seemed to exist naturally. The combination of androgynous features would without a doubt make distinguishing their gender a challenge.Pink eyes stared at the price tags of two varieties, a skill learned from scarcity of wealth that Homura had yet to experience.

There was no way his gaffe didn't go unnoticed this time, though all Shion did was keep quiet and watch. He shouldn't have been blamed for being confused by this, since Farrin seemed just fine in the beginning!"Huh? Change size? Toto?"He responded as if it was the first time he heard this concept, clearly not possessing the power to do so if the boxer's skill in deduction was adept. Shion tilted his head, looking down at his companion as if he was trying to force a confession out of them. A few moments of being absolutely ignored later, he just shrugged at Farrin. Toto lying still in his lap."Eeeeeh?? You're 18? That means I'm older than you!"Shion turned towards Farrin and leaned forwards with a surprised expression. Looks truly were deceiving when it came human age. Unlike a vegetable or fruit where you could tell that it was clearly ripe, you couldn't do the same with a human unless they were a fetus or on their deathbed. Heck, people even thought I was 16 several times before."Wait, so three. . . four. . . one? Is that right? You've been training for 8 years?! That would mean you started when you were just a kid!"Comically misunderstanding what Farrin was telling him, Shion's academic weaknesses were in full display. He tried to give it his all counting on his fingers, but that only served to confuse him further.The youth's face soured to one of genuine concern to how the other boy followed up this information. Mental playback of an imaginary 10 year old getting beaten up by adults wasn't an enjoyable sight."O-oh. All the time, huh. . . so you just took "believe in yourself" to another level, and kept going? While you were 10??"Shion should've known that someone close to him in age, being this strong had to make him some freak of nature. A real unit, in other words. Man, why did some people get to be born prodigies while he was stuck being. . . normal!

As one of the brightest minds in Tokyo's community of researchers, Shion did expect some level of eccentricity in Iphigenia's behavior. There wasn't a "why" that he could understand for it, really. Special people tended to behave. . . special.While she reassured him, he couldn't help but think about what made Recall different. Her composed voice, large eyes that never seemed to blink when he was paying attention to them, and lack of stress or expressed emotion other than "calm" that Shion witnessed made him feel like a different specimen."Oh, alright."If this wasn't a world filled with quirks, he'd definitely theorize if she could really be referred to as being within the bounds of a human being."Uh huh! Singularity!"Shion nodded rapidly as Toto was now held to his chest like a plushie, the movement getting in the way of Iphigenia's hands as she tried removing the equipment on his head. He had heard that word somewhere before, but didn't understand it. Oh well, no reason not to nod along and pretend like he got like he did in class.But the catchup he had to do on his own after that. . . ugh."Though. . . maybe there's one more thing I'd like to ask you, professor."All it took for Shion to spill the beans, may had been the little push of reassurance by Recall when he appeared uneasy. Quirks were always personal to their bearers, and because of that speaking of it was often paramount to revealing an aspect of oneself. There was that theory suggesting that the person's nature directly affected the manifestation of their powers. . . even if it had been dismissed as pseudoscientific decades ago.But whatever, he could always imagine."Let's say. . . that there's two siblings. One's got a quirk, but the other doesn't. One day, the sibling with the quirk- just passes away. The quirkless sibling develops a quirk a short time after that, and it's just like the one their sis- I mean, sibling had. And it happens a long time after the period quirks are supposed to manifest."Shion described the hypothetical scenario with great care and meticulousness, something that wasn't common for a walking bag of feathers like him. His voice also seemed to be more aware of the subject than when Iphigenia was explaining those concepts to him, paired with a quiet glance down at Toto in his arms.A single red eye looked straight at two yellow ones a few feet away, like two moons reflected on a red pond."Would something like that be a coincidence? Just wondering."

Shion approached the desk and took a seat. Surprisingly, he wasn't shambling zombie-style despite almost being bandaged enough to look like a mummy.He would have laughed at that thought, if all his joy wasn't spent denying the gravity of Tokyo's situation for the past week."Sensei."The youth returned the greeting with a voice that could only be described as sluggish. Unmotivated. Slow. Toto was nowhere to be seen, and as if to make up for that- Shion's posture was lifeless as the alien's observed demeanor. His eye not covered by messy red hair, looked up once at her before lowering its gaze at the table that separated them both.Nearly a hundred civilians dead. Hundreds more missing. The most recent villain attack had once again destroyed vital parts of the cosmopolitan city, and these numbers weren't even counting the casualties and damage stemming from the Babel system.In a historical perspective, it wasn't a particularly large price to pay. Far more died in the 2050s, especially internationally.Was this the result of a world that had reached its peak after all the chaos from years ago?"I. . . I can't say it in words. All I know is that my hopes were too high, when I last saw you." He remembered how excited, how encouraged he felt when he left the office, feeling that he could take on anyone and anything. It really took a few falls to make the bird accept that it still could not fly."I always heard that a hero's life was violent, but I had no idea what that meant until now."Orange light from the window besides them stretched across the wooden table's surface. It was getting quite late, all the students returning to their dormitories and custodians leaving to the parking lot to drive home."Sadako-sensei. . . did you encourage me so much last time while you already knew that?"

Choosing your family. That was an answer almost anyone with a soul would give.". . ."Despite the frosty look he was being given, the winter coming from the man's gaze didn't do much to deter Shion's lamp, reinforced with the metal holding flame within. Glass walls like trust kept the cold winds from penetrating, and an all-seeing guardian oversaw the lamppost to keep it company."Sounds like an answer I'd give."He commented, looking off to the side. Was it disappointment he felt? Or maybe it just wasn't what he expected from someone that looked as punk-ish as Callisto.Was it wrong to walk up to someone, asking these questions just to see if their true soul matched with that Shion made in his own head?"Family, huh. . . that word might mean something different for both of us. Nothingness is the lack of family, so that'd probably suck."It appeared that they had interpreted "going nowhere" in a different way.He had never met anyone in this world that did not want a family, or something that resembled one for themselves. Unless one was born truly different, the lack of belonging and connections would drive them mad.Attention would return to the blue haired man as he mentioned family again. Shion's face seemed to be questioning about what word was to him, though the winter lamp lit up to be as bright as before when it came to Callisto's last sentence."Yeah! I meet new people all the time, and every day I spend with them is just like with a family!"Both the good, and the bad that must come with it. For the sky, the earth. For day, the night. For summer, the winter.For life, death.For yang, there would always be yin.Shion's stomach rumbled, he looked down at Toto who was vibrating due to it, being unfortunately positioned over the youth's abdomen. He glanced up to see what position the sun was in, before turning to Callisto with a smile."Speaking of- I forgot about breakfast! Want to come get a snack? I heard there's a cheap place close to here!"Careless, one might say to inviting a complete stranger you just met. But what vinegar of cynicism existed, was thinned into a fine cafe drink by the sugar of trust, and water of intentions.

"Neither works."Claudio would hear him say curtly, face out of their view as they stood up to walk around the table which separated them like a barrier. Each step was light, but also firm in how quickly the distance between them was closed.Shion stood over the cloud with hands on his hips, figure blocking the view of flowers outside."If you want me to give you attention, you're gonna call me by my name- Shion! S-H-I-O-N! Got it?"Names are important.He had been told this for a majority of life, words describing a person being a part of their identity like a jagged cardboard piece fit into a puzzle. To give others a name they didn't identify with, was essentially depriving them of that personhood."Besides, if you're going to be screaming it for the next hour at least get it right! I hate it when a guy says someone else's name during sex!"Squatting down cross-legged next to Claudio, Shion began undoing the top buttons on his cardigan while puffing out a breath that sounded like the piping steam of impatience. His words were still calm however, despite the situation he began putting the both of them in."So, does this mean you want me to take the lead? You really haven't been forward at all- not that I don't appreciate someone submissive!"There wasn't even a blush on Shion's cheeks despite the unclean implications of what he was expecting. Shamelessness was a good way to put it, and that wasn't something you just don't have as an adult- he was definitely used to this whole thing. . . perhaps to an unhealthy extent if it meant a basic human quality was being lost.

"That hard to answer. . . Toto's my quirk, but they're my friend too!"Bending down, Shion allowed the dew to slightly wet the fringes of his dress to pick up the alien creature. He held them in his arms like you would do with an alien, allowing Farrin to get a closer look at the odd combination of a sea cucumber, a starfish, a sea urchin, and a household tool."Well I never thought of that! Toto just lets me use him in a buncha' ways all the time- right? You're okay!"Toto's eyes glanced towards Shion, before focusing back on the renowned boxer in front of them both. Rather than agreeing or disagreeing, it was debatable if this creature even care about this at all.Smiling cheekily as Farrin gave him reassurance, the youth seemed to have his external sense of security restored as he turned around, holding Toto like an actual broom towards the grass below them both. Drops of water went flying left and right as the alien's legs were brushed against the green blades, clearing a relatively dry place for all of them to spend their time."If we're gonna' talk for a while, might as well sit! Come on!"Shion took their place on the ground with Toto on his lap, who had now coiled into a small pile. "That'd make a lot of sense. . . though, aren't you about my age? How old were you when you started?"Hero prep schools weren't uncommon institutions to exist after the end of the vigilante era, though their high standards and grueling training often made ordinary college look like a cakewalk! Farrin must have been a tough cookie of a kid to make it through until now, considering where he was!"Well, what's more important is that I wanna' know how you made yourself get back up each time you lost. That must've happened a ton in the beginning, right? Pretty much no one's born strong like you are."Shion looked towards the sky, not appearing to notice or comment on the other boy's change in expression as well as their low words. Rather, his eyes seemed be figuratively looking inwards to imagine what Farrin's past experiences were like."Because it wasn't easy for me to take it when I got knocked out twice in a row- I still feel awful about it!"One of Toto's eyes were pointing in the Timeturner's general direction however, but judging by their past actions it was unlikely they'd do anything- not like they could speak in the first place.

[Now Playing: Happy Material]"Ja-jaaaan~!"Shion stepped out of the changing room looking completely different than usual. Their medium-length hair was tied in a bushy ponytail, not looking unlike the tufts of a squirrel's tail as a large green ribbon tied the red furs into a bow. "That's right! I'm Magical Girl Dorothy!"The pink and magenta short skirt was presented with a cheer, blue fabric in the form of a sash holding it together in the midsection. He posed with a coat hanger in one hand, sticking it out to the side while winking.He held it for a few more seconds, before running over to the counter, excitedly asking the host of this small fashion brand about their outfit as Toto looked on from a corner, laid besides the mirror like a prop."Whadd'ya think, Auden? I look cute, right?"Auden's clothing shop. A nook carved into the brick wall of many small backroads filling the interstice of Shinjuku, staying out of the eyes of many but still being a treasure for those who wouldn't mind ditching expensive brands and try something new.It was late in the afternoon when Shion had arrived, the trip being easy for him since his quirk allowed him to ignore the terrain that was land traffic. Having a license to fly, as well as being able to fly to begin with was quite the acquired luxury. Being able to traverse an entire axis of movement unavailable to others was a blessing that Shion often forgot to be thankful for.
