Misaki is a bundle of energy. Lighting up the room with her very presence and having an almost gravitational pull she is rarely anything but the center of attention. Combined with enough humility to be pleasant to be around Misaki navigates social circles with expertise and skill. She is firmly of the opinion that reaching highs is done by pulling others up along with you to reach greater heights, not by pushing them down to look better by comparison.
She greatly enjoys watching movies, especially with friends, and tends to prefer action, comedy and romance when it comes to their genres. Sappy romcoms are a guilty pleasure of hers, often causing her to daydream of all manner of possible futures with a goofy smile on her face.

Misaki has shoulder length brown hair and bright yellow eyes full of determination. Tall and slender her posture ensures she always comes across as the very picture of confidence. Her tendency to wear bright yellows, oranges and browns often cause her to be the center of attention, lighting up the room whenever she is present.

[div][attr="class","body"][div][attr="class","header2"]HISTORY[/div]
From a young age Takanashi Misaki was fascinated by those that were the center of attention. Idols, heroes, actors and more. All of them seemed to have something about them that made them special. Misaki wanted nothing more than to be one of them. When her quirk manifested while she was cheerily singing a tune Misaki caught a glimpse of the road ahead and made a decision. One day she too would stand atop the grand stage.
Over the years she's tried many things and managed to excel at most of them whether it be singing, dancing, acting or even martial arts. Utterly full of energy Misaki devoted herself to becoming the best person she could be with every fiber of her being. Chasing challenge after challenge she pursues an ever brighter future and fully intends to bring everyone along. For practice is far from the only thing she devotes her time to. It is when socialising that Misaki feels most alive. Sharing experiences with her friends, meeting new people and enjoying all that life has to offer is one of her deepest wishes and Misaki is nothing if not proactive.
In addition to taking part in commercials and minor movie roles she works part-time as an idol, shining bright atop the big screen and through the radio alike. Despite all the time and energy it takes she never slacks on her studies at UAU. While not the most book smart person Misaki compensates with more effort, putting twice as much into her hero studies as most others. Where she finds the time for all of it one can only wonder.

[b]QUIRK TYPE:[/b] Emitter
[b]QUIRK DESCRIPTION:[/b]
Phonic Wave is a quirk that allows its user to build up 'phonic energy' produced through the user's vocal cord and use it to devastating effect. Phonic energy is created through humming, singing or other rhythmic uses of one's vocal cords. It can be used in one of two ways, concentrated or spread out, boosting either [b]STRENGTH [/b]or [b]AWARENESS [/b]up to quirk rank.

[img style="max-width:100%;" src="https://i.imgur.com/ueUPH4s.gif"]
[b]QUIRK DRAWBACKS:
[/b]Phonic energy is not generated instantly, requiring a build-up before it can be used. Additionally if the user's rhythm is disturbed the energy dissipates, allowing the quirk to be disrupted prior to the energy being expended and requiring the build-up process to start anew.

"Thank you~" Misaki cheerfully replied. My, he was moving quite fast wasn't he. Was he inclined to prioritize efficiency or just eager to see her gone? Well, one of those options made both of them look better than the other so Misaki knew which she'd choose to believe.
"Is that so? A rarity these days. You wouldn't believe how much practice equipment I go through." Crossing her arms Misaki let out an exaggerated sigh while shaking her head. Truly, just a bit too much focus on the moves she was practicing and a bit too little on where she was going was enough to break her audio equipment whenever a cable snagged on her feet. Still, if she skipped dance practice too often she'd fall behind her peers so she had no choice but to practice within the small studio she rented nearby whenever the trip to her group's studio didn't fit within her schedule.
"Oh, a fight? Good luck!" She added with a thumbs-up. Misaki herself was sitting the duels out this year. With a concert coming up she couldn't afford to get too injured. In truth she was advised against participating in any events at all but there was no way she was skipping the entire festival. That was no way to get ahead.
"Some small-time acting gigs, commercials here and there, bit of singing. Nothing quite related to the festival yet but hey, maybe one day I'll be a featured guest here." Misaki made sure to emphasize her statement with a playful wink. She was underplaying her jobs a little but she didn't feel like going into detail. It was always a pain telling someone she was part of an idol group, half the time they suddenly wanted pictures and pretended to be interested despite having no idea who she even was. If the interest was genuine she'd be happy to accommodate but the act was usually motivated by nothing but fear of missing out. No, Misaki had no intention of advertising herself in social situations anymore.
"Well then, I'll see you around campus Arashi-san. Have a nice day!" With her new purchases paid for and bagged she walked off with the bag in one hand -the back of which rested on her shoulder- and a wave with her other. That was a neat break. Now it was time to go back to giving it her all!

Misaki just smirked at his reply, something he had no way of seeing what with her being behind him. Once the ascent began she made sure to shift her weight along with Michael's leaps, taking care to jostle him as little as possible and add to his momentum where she could. The moment they made it to the top she let go and hopped off. The flags were in reach but they didn't have much of a lead despite their smooth cooperation. Three other teams were nearing the apex as well and Misaki wasn't gonna be fooled by the slightly darker shadow near the flags. They needed to do a quick in-and-out before this turned into a grand melee.
"I've got a plan." Facing Michael with a confident expression she continued. "Getting back down this slope and up the other while being chased won't work. I'll go grab the flag, can you get ready to rocket us back across the gap once I'm back?"
The ramp they'd gone down and the slope they'd had to climb were roughly on the same level. Misaki reckoned it'd be much, much easier to make it horizontally than repeat both processes the other way. Unless Michael could somehow absorb the impact for both of them if they jumped down and use the rebound to leap all the way up but Misaki wasn't gonna ask that of him while there were other possible options. Besides, she really couldn't afford to break a leg right now. That'd put a major damper on her plans for the next few weeks.
Assuming she got confirmation or an alternative suggestion Misaki would give a nod and set off with a confident smile. Humming a tune to keep her quirk ready for action she made her way to the flag. The three stands holding the respective flags were set atop a neat pyramid with a flat top about a meter and a half high surrounded by four pillars with the UAU logo on them. Pretending she was only looking at the goal she channeled her quirk through her feet, spreading it through the ground. She only narrowly managed to stop a smug smile from showing at having her suspicions confirmed.
When she reached the base of the pyramid a figure appeared from the shadows not unlike upside down footage of someone diving into a pool of water. Excessively long black hair streamed behind the figure and obscured one of her eyes, her sharp nails reaching out to claw at Misaki before the goal was reached. With an expression like the cat that ate the canary Misaki did a half turn and tilted backwards.
"MiiIISAAA-"
"Hi there, bye there."
Trailing her fingertips along the side of the woman's hand Misaki grasped her opponent's wrist and guided her along past her as if they were dancing a waltz. The second she let go her opponent stumbled several steps further, the pool of shadow snapping back into a more normal shade once her hair was no longer connected to it. Without further ado Misaki raced up the pyramid and grabbed a flag, leapt so she could kick off the side of one of the pillars and go right over the black-haired woman before landing in a roll. With flag in hand she raced back to Michael.
"Let's go! Quick!"

Misaki's heart thumped in her chest like a speaker, each beat seeming to send not just blood but phonic energy too thrumming through her veins. She was practically vibrating. Whether it was the moment, the song, the company or a mix of all of the above she couldn't say nor would she bother to figure it out. Understanding was nothing compared to feeling after all.
The beat changed. No longer was her heart just her own, no, it pulsed in tune with the spirit of her opponent. At least that's how it felt. Biology aside the rhythm of Misaki's energy left her control. She didn't hold on to it, there was no point. The energy now matched that conjured by Ylva. Misaki didn't even need to hear her warning to know the attack was coming. She felt it before it even launched.
"♫ With this hand, I'll reach out and take a hold, shred the past, the future will change its course ♫"
The projectile flew straight towards her, the throw making their collision imminent and their conflict a certainty.
"♫ Stride forth, gain your wings, find the joy that it brings ♫
♫ We are one, this truth I will believe, no matter the hardships it may bring ♫"
Her palms tingled as the projectile neared. Taking one firm step closer she reached forth to make contact with Ylva's energy. It felt like plunging her hands into an icy lake
" ♫ Let us soar, we will reach for the light, no matter what it brings you won't lose your fight, sing here with me ♫ "
The all-consuming frost. A cold that bit deep and left its mark, stagnant in stories of the past to the point they would freeze the future. Her heart felt for Ylva. Was this how she felt all this time?
"♫ 'til the sound called you lays still at last and ceases to play ♫
♫ I'll be here with yoouuu ♫
♫ Sing out with uuuuuuusssss! ♫ "
The crescendo of her song blasted out, her own Phonic Energy not tearing into Ylva's but matching it until it reached a neutral and was nullified entirely. At least, that was what it would look like with some more practice. As it was both energies roiled. Misaki had grasped intent but the heart was a delicate matter. She was no genius like her friends. No matter how much she wanted to she wouldn't succeed on the first try, nor the second or even the third. Both energies roiled as they met, countering each other and fighting for supremacy until they popped.
The majority was nullified, her efforts not for naught, but it wasn't enough. Her hands stayed unblemished but the same could not be said for her arms, a layer of frost forming atop them and biting deep enough she could feel the chill in her bones. Her shoulders too did not remain safe from harm. The muscles within froze partially, not enough to impede on her mobility but enough to feel tearing with ever move she made.
"Hehe, you did it, Ylva." Misaki said with a cheery smile strained by effort. One that was slightly lopsided due to the fact that her face was dotted with frost not unlike freckles. "I knew you had it." She wobbled on her feet after speaking. She still had gas in the tank but it had for sure taken a lot out of her. It'd take a lot more practice to use this move in real combat. Feeling her eyelids droop slightly with a similar feeling to the crash after drinking coffee Misaki clenched her jaw to stop a yawn.
"I'm thinking another try or two and then infirmary followed by some food?"
Misaki was running on fumes but that didn't mean she had to stop. There was no way she was going to consistently be in top form during battle nor stay there for its entire duration. Practice made perfect and the better she was at her lowest the more likely she was to survive. She briefly swayed on her feet while taking another stance. They'd get there, both of them. This was just the beginning of their stories.

Uh oh. She'd gotten a bit carried away there wanting to gush about Masao's new relationship status. Spotting the narrowing of eyes Misaki quickly switched away from the subject.
"I guess not. Well, for all that I talk about it I don't exactly have any plans either. I'm busy enough as is, you know?"
She could probably go on about how her current life was fulfilling as it was and how she had plenty of things she was trying to accomplish as is but Misaki didn't feel like she needed to. Ylva would get it. Some things just didn't need to be said.
"You will?" Her eyes widened a fraction -but only a fraction- before she schooled her expression again, the sole difference being that her smile seemed just that little bit extra genuine. "Thanks, I'll be counting on you." That was above and beyond what she'd expected or even asked. It was enough to put her in a good mood for the rest of the day. More importantly, it was perfect to channel into her song and through it, her quirk.
---
The beat thrummed through her. With her arm extended out in front of her like she was reaching out she could feel the phonic energy building within. Were she attempting to use her quirk the way she normally did this would be more than enough to boost her to her full power. Misaki didn't stop singing. With exuberance showing in her eyes she pushed it further and further. Not for strength, no, nor even to sense more of her surroundings.
No, this was different. Directed.
It was an application of both strength and awareness meeting in the middle and resonating with the rhythm of her opponent. The building energy served not to reach further beyond but to match. A symphony that could not be performed alone, no show of power to make one's mark on the world but a waltz.
"♫ A voice spills from the heart, 'See me 'fore I'm torn apart,' unheard thoughts cast to the void, where they are left without a word ♫
♫ Powerless I stare, my form not moving with my care ♫
♫ Did I give up? No that's not it. I stand firm, look them in the eye ♫
♫ Get rid of 'someone else will do it', reach out and bare your heart ♫
♫ To change the path of yesteryear, I stand tall to face this inner feeeeeaaaar ♫"
Phonic energy dipped and rose along with Ylva's attempts, resonating in response to her efforts. Misaki could feel it in her bones. Whatever Ylva was trying to accomplish was drawing nearer and nearer. Setting into a sideways stance with her open palms aimed at Ylva her phonic energy rose once more, a beat running through her with enough force to cause the bottom of her hair to lift and flutter out. It was time. She'd put her all into it and put her life on the line to match Ylva blow for blow. Anything less would be pointless.

"Alright, alright. Absolutely nothing. I believe you." Misaki said in a tone that implied the exact opposite. "You haven't found out that Masao managed to snag herself a boyfriend, got it." Now that was bound to get Ylva to pretend not to care while paying close attention. "Hmm, is that why you skipped lunch? You're not dieting to get on the market too are you?" Misaki teased. "I jest, I jest. Let's get on with it, dinner on me after? Don't wanna leave you hungry." She barely resisted giving the most obnoxious of winks. Ah, the things Misaki did for her friends.
With her face taking on a bit more of a serious and almost fragile expression she looked Ylva in the eye.
"Hey, uh, could you go easy on her for a bit? Maybe check in to see if she's okay? Her quirk's been acting up a little ever since, well, ya know?"
More details weren't necessary nor were they hers to share. She knew that despite Ylva's cold appearance she would help out without her having to anyway. That's just what friends did. Letting out a breath like a weight had been taken off her shoulders Misaki launched into the explanation on her Super.
When Ylva pulled her hand back Misaki's heart dropped causing her to fail at managing her facial expression for about half a second before she managed to put on her normal cocksure smirk again.
'Ah, that smarts.'
"Boo~. Super Moves take the right feelin' ya know? Plus Ultra and all that." Well, if she didn't even manage to get hers across to Ylva this Super was going to be much harder than expected. The confidence in Misaki's eyes grew at that if anything. Getting there was exactly the point of the move. It had to come from both sides. She'd understand Ylva more and more until she finally got through to her. Besties forever!
"A grasp, huh?" Misaki raised her own hand back up, fingers curling into a facsimile of the pose she'd tried to make earlier. In a way their ideas were similar, just a different way o-
Their eyes met and Misaki knew. Without any further words she nodded and began to sing while walking backwards to get some distance.
"♫ Were they a vision? A mirage or a dream? Even now, those gentle days, held in memory like shining rays ♫
♫ Left in the past all now behind, why oh why is the truth so unkind? ♫
♫ A miracle in the rear view, the moment passes with no clue ♫
♫ Grief not, tear those eyes from the sky, look forth, today say no goodbye. Against the wind return that shine, to fate say 'no, I will make it miiiiiiine' ♫
♫ Stand against the waves, feel your hearts as one, find what it craves, all for a new daaaaawn ♫
♫ Sink not into the dark, ignite your spark, bring out what lays ahead ♫
♫ We are one, past present and future ♫
♫ Time will not, entrap us in its chains ♫
♫ This today shows a brighter way, leap into the fray, stand tall by our side, concede not the fight ♫
♫ Until the day may come where it all goes wrong and the light goes daaaark ♫
♫ With no restraint ♫
♫ Sing out with uuuuuuusssss! ♫ "
Raising one arm in front of her Misaki met Ylva's eyes with a clear gaze. There was no mistaking its meaning. She was ready for anything.

"Alright, you're forgiven but make sure it doesn't happen again." Misaki responded in a mock serious tone with a gruff nod and her hands on her hips. Keeping her face straight was increasingly difficult when Masao continued speaking. Those were a lot of words she were using. Especially considering how much she was leaving out of her explanation. A tinge of anxiety went through her as well before she mentally waved an imaginary hand to dissipate the metaphorical clouds of doubt. No point taking it personally until she knew the details. It might not be a lack of trust in her, maybe there was another reason.
"Me? Oh, you know how I am. Idol work is pulling me one way, acting gigs another and I can barely keep up with my schoolwork on top of all that. It's keeping me razor sharp," she added with a wink. She truly was enjoying how busy she was, the constant motion keeping her energy levels high as they could be. It was undeniable however that her combat skills and quirk development were lagging behind a bit as a result but hey, that's what they were here for today.
"I for one think your quirk is far stunning than mine. I'm looking forward to seeing how it's developing." She made sure to cross her arms, close her eyes and nod with a certain amount of gravitas to emphasize her point.
Much like Masao feared Misaki very much noticed her not mentioning one of the names. With her mind churning she put one and one together, extrapolated some things and ended up with seven. Adding a little teasing into the mix she decided to hide her irrational anxiety over the potential rift forming between them with some refuge in audacity.
"I see, I see. Soooooo…" She trailed off with an increasingly smug smile. "Your boyfriend is keeping you busy huh?"
Her smile turned into an open mouthed, wide eyed stare at Masao's reaction.
"No way. NO WAY!!! Hell yeah! Details, girl, I need details! Masao~~~," she almost squealed. Misaki was going to be absolutely insufferable for the next while.

With a bit of theatrical humming and hawing Misaki finally made her decision.
"I'll take three of the solid yellow ones please. Oh, do you also have sweat wristbands in the same color? I'll take three of those too!"
Ylva was unlikely to accept one after all, no, she had to rely on a cunning ruse to make her plan work. Offering one of the silicone ones first in a joking manner as a 'friendship bracelet' would be an easy way to get a refusal out of the way and well, turning down a practical one after that? Well now, that'd just be rude and as much as Ylva might try to maintain her frigid facade there was a heart beneath those layers of frost. Why, it was the perfect plan! Just in case Misaki got enough of the silicone ones too for all of them. Who knew, maybe Ylva would see right through her and accept one of those to get things over with instead. Misaki was more than happy to prepare for both possibilities. That way she always came out on top.
"Ho ho~ Confident in the quality are we? Alright, you've convinced me. I'll take three of those as well." It was slightly above what she'd intended to spend to put it mildly but she could afford to splurge now and then. "Can I get one of the bottles in red, one in yellow and one in white?"
Misaki responded to his handshake in kind, adding a nod in as well at the same time.
"A pleasure to make your acquaintance, Arashi-san. Hope you're having a great time too, for what it's worth you're killing it." Misaki added with a wink and a thumbs-up while fishing out her wallet. "I'll check out some of your performances in the other events. I'm working tomorrow as well so I'll be checking out some of the streams during my breaks. Don't disappoint~." There was a clear teasing lilt to her voice when she said the last part, another wink and a half smile making it clear she was speaking in jest. But hey, if it worked to encourage him instead wasn't that a win too? Flawless. Plans.

"Yahallo~" Misaki greeted Masao back while waving in her direction. The formal bow took her somewhat by surprise, specifically the angle of it, and by her tone she could tell that there was something Masao wanted to ask. Which, of course, made this the perfect time to get a request through since she was much less likely to refuse.
"Takanashi-san? Boooo, we've known each other for so long now. Call me Misaki already, Masao-chan."
Truly, what an evil mastermind she was. Cackling on the inside she put on her most innocent smile. Masao could suspect nothing. No, her secret identity had to stay in tact lest she had to tearfully flee on a rickety boat with a mournful soundtrack, rain pattering down heavily around her while the fleeting figure of the lover Misaki would absolutely have one day stood tearfully on the shore. Her lips curled up just the slightest bit at that thought. She should have rope some people into movie night soon.
"How have you been recently? Anything interesting happen?"

"Oh?" Misaki said with a raised eyebrow, one that went back down when both of her eyes widened slightly and a teasing smile settled on her features instead. "Oooh. I see. Nothing I would find interesting happened, huh? Come on, spill! What happened that you were interested in?"She wasn't gonna rib Ylva too much about it but if she didn't get a satisfactory answer Misaki was definitely gonna remember this conversation. There would be other times, in other places. Misaki could bide her time if need be. Patience was a virtue and persistence a skill, two things Misaki always aimed to practice and uphold. Why, pestering Ylva later was just her path to self improvement. Wasn't she just an absolute saint? Almost snickering to herself Misaki moved on to the next question."Hmm, that's a good question. I don't think it's one I can answer though. Not in words at least." Gesturing for Ylva to raise her hand at chest height as if to give a very unenthusiastic high five Misaki placed her own hand up against it. "The technique I'm trying to make, well, the Super Move I want to develop. It's, hmm, how do I put this. It's not entirely mine." Looking Ylva in the eye with a wry smile on her face she continued. "Not really. My part will only be half of it. What I want to create is a chance. A future. A possibility that wasn't there before. Oh Kami, that sounds sappy when I put it like that."
Chuckling in self-derision Misaki briefly shook her head before continuing."A fight has two people and often it just escalates and escalates until all hope is gone and there's just an ending. A conclusive one, the end of a chapter, the cancellation of a story. I..." She let out a deep breath. What she was doing right now was putting her heart out there and even though she trusted Ylva implicitly it was still incredibly embarrassing to put words to concepts. "...don't like that. What I want to make is an opportunity. Just one more chance to talk things over. My Super Move isn't just my own."Moving their thumbs and curling her fingers so Ylva's would move along she changed their respective positions so there was a gap in between them. Lowering her gaze to stare at their hands she continued just a bit more quietly. "Me. My opponent. The space in between. My Super Move is born there."
Staying silent for a moment Misaki abruptly pulled back with a slight flush on her face."Ha, ha ha. I, uh, just said a lot while not saying anything at all, didn't I?" Taking another deep breath she made eye contact once more. "What I want to do is use my song to bridge the gap. To counter someone with the exact same amount of force to negate that one crucial attack, the one that would set someone on the path of no return. That is the wish I am putting into this Super Move."The slight flush on her face was a visual indication, certainly, but it didn't even compare to how mortified she felt inside. Misaki was no stranger to having to confront her feelings and put them out there to get results, she was an artist after all, but that didn't make it any less embarrassing. "What about you, Ylva-chan. What are you trying to accomplish?" ” |

"What a gentleman!" Misaki feigned swooning while making her way over. She wasn't entirely sure what he was planning but they'd gotten this far by trusting each other, just a bit more couldn't hurt. Besides, even if she wasn't sure she had a hunch. It'd all depend on whether his quirk worked the way she suspected it did however. Misaki wasn't going to make assumptions like that without knowing for sure. She'd found that it was much easier to accept mistakes and change track if one hadn't solidified their ideas in their mind and accepted them as fact.
Putting a hand on each of his shoulders she leaned forward to allow him to take her weight, either putting her feet on his hands or placing them snug around his middle depending on what he offered. With a teasing smirk she leaned in and whispered roughly where his ear would be.
"I'm not too heavy, am I~"

Misaki cheerfully nodded, hummed and hawed along in tune to his words, her active listener training on full display.
"I see, I see. Wonderful! Do you have any wristbands in yellow?" Misaki asked cheerfully. With some luck there'd be three pairs of them. Yellow was her color after all and it'd come as no surprise if she tried to gift a set to either Misaki or Ylva. Why, they wouldn't even question it until they ran into each other and found out they had matching pairs~
"Don't think I need any ice packs right now, already have one," Ylva would kill her if she heard her say that, "but I'm definitely in the market for a water bottle or two, maybe three. Got any recommendations?"
Flashing her brightest smile Misaki eagerly awaited his recommendation. She could check if they had any to her liking herself of course but there was just something special about going with what someone else wanted. This little outside touch that broadened perspectives. Misaki lived for that.
Putting a hand on her heart with a gasp and widening her eyes in shock at her discourtesy she took a half step back before speaking. "Ah but where are my manners, I forgot to introduce myself." Once that was said she took a slighty bigger step forward and extended her hand in greeting. "Takanashi Misaki, third year, department of heroics. A pleasure to meet you!"
She'd memorised the student rosters and with a bit of thinking had put a name to the face of course but Misaki didn't want to see Enma as just a picture on paper. Sure, such things were good for basic intel but second-hand info rarely shaped a correct picture. Nope, Misaki didn't rely on those. Her impression of Enma had begun the moment she stepped into the store and not a second before. It made getting to know more people just that much more fun.

"Great!" High fiving Julienne Misaki happily walked along with her. "Sure, I'll help out too!" Her eyes widened for a moment at the absolutely enormous amount of food present already. It was a good thing that today was her cheat day. She loved some cheese now and then and one of those pizza slices looked to have her name on it. With a bit of plausible deniability she could just pretend she was drawn into the story of Jun’s cartoons enough to have forgotten to watch her calories.
"My~, did you think you and Ylva were my only friends?" She teasingly answered Masao. "How sad, all these efforts to be friendly and not even my closest friends believe in me. Alas, poor Misaki, doomed to be unpopular forevermore." Misaki continued while tilting her head back and resting the back of her hand on her forehead. She feigned a sniffle or two before straightening again with a wink and explaining. "We met during the Sports Festival." Misaki had absolutely no intention of elaborating on how. That was a little factoid that didn’t need to reach Ylva’s ears.
"Me? Oh, I usually like to go for some karaoke or just hang out with friends. Hang out with, not hang on to, of course." She teased Julienne with a wink, not at all hinting at the disaster that was their team effort during the three-legged race.
Something in Masao’s words resonated with her too. Clenching and unclenching her hand into a fist and back she could almost feel the thrum of a rhythm in her heart. To create something with her own hands, huh? That sounded nice.
Misaki was instantly on guard when the shadow appeared in the doorway, swallowing to lubricate their throat in preparation of using their quirk to fight. They couldn't see through it but they knew someone that might be able to tell through their quirk. Before they could even ask 'Ylva, danger?' her bestie already answered. Warmth blossomed in Misaki’s chest. Ah, how wonderful friendship was. Why they could just finish each other’s…
Right, that didn’t work with internal monologues. Or maybe it did. She wondered what Ylva was thinking right now.
Almost squinting at her appearance Misaki couldn't help but think that Suzui bore a striking resemblance to descriptions of ‘the ghost of the girl's dorms. She couldn't help but wonder if there was a correlation. Were they about to unveil one of UAU's famed 7 mysteries that totally existed before she just came up with the term to make it sound more dramatic?
"Nice to meet you face to face then, Lili. Can I call you that or would you prefer Suzui or Yanli?" Misaki asked with a warm smile. She couldn’t quite say for sure she knew who the woman was but in between the similarities between their quirks and her earlier words she was definitely tied intrinsically with YaoYao somehow. Jun knowing her and greeting her so warmly was definitely another point in favor of that theory. How interesting. What better place to clear up possible misunderstandings than a girl’s night out too? She wasn’t gonna make any assumptions when she had the chance to just ask. That would be dumb.
She squared away Jun’s self-image issues for later too. That she couldn’t let stand. Lack of self-confidence? In her vicinity? Nuh uh, not today! By the time this girl’s night ended she’d make sure Jun’s opinion of herself had improved. Misaki was sure she could find the time in between mediating her besties’ arguments. Practice made perfect and she was nothing if not diligent. Persistent too for that matter.
Oh, today was gonna be fun~
