Lesson from a senpai?! [Monty | Rowan]

God she was tired. Mentally, maybe even physically because of her mental thoughts. She was so unsure about the decisions she had made, she wasn't sure what to say, think or do. Trying to train was tiring, she did not want to lift her body up and start, she did not want to move or do anything, she wanted today to not exist, her mind to not consider, her body not to worry. But today did exist and it would not stop and she would have to continue but she was tired and silly. She was not made for socializing, that's probably why they homeschooled her. But Hiro liked her, Miku liked her, why was she doing so difficult. Sean had liked her? She just wished there was someone out there that would understand her, that would push her away from training, from studying and do something fun. Apparently that was too much to ask.

She had no eyes or ears for anything else, she just heard a squeak and looked up and almost tumbled over, putting her hands behind her back so she didn't fall, she stared at the blond boy. He looked very kind, she just had not heard him coming. Good job, Rowan. Soon you suck as a hero too, bleh. "Sorry, I did-did not hear you coming." She mumbled but it seemed to be all fine, she did not scare him off too much and she lowered her hands and knees and just sat up straight to watch him. She had no idea who this guy was, he looked young, but then again so did some others, behaviour or quirk wise, so it was hard to consider. He was very pretty. "My-my help?" What? She did not expect that question but she also shouldn't deny it, a distraction was very welcome, "I mean ehm yea sure." She nodded and would get up if he did so as well, "What do you need help with?" and was she able to give that help or what? There were too many questions still to consider, this was a bit stupid but she was going to do it alright! Yes, let's help this student so she could do better and she would get her thoughts away from... from everything else, thank you very much.

She made sure her shoes were closed properly, the arm canons on her lower arms were fixed and proper as well. God, this armour thing was getting out of hand.

She felt a bit bad about her behaviour, scaring the other with her surprise and all, what was there to say about it. She took a deep breath and tried to smile, but it didn't reach her eyes. He did not seem to be faced by her resting bitch face or the look on it in general, which definitely helped her feeling less shitty about herself. So that was something and she looked a little more interested at Monty, albeit still not knowing his name when he explained why he needed her help. She actually smiled a little more honest when he said yay, so that was something.

Honey? She heard that name before, oh right, Miku had introduced her name before, but she had not met the girl yet but she smiled, it was always nice to see other people interested and helping each other. Like Charlie had done for her hero outfit. Spar? Oh ehm, but her power she took a deep breath. Calm down it was still discussed not sure, so she was not sure what to say at all. "Okay so ehm, I could try to lower my explosions and I just don't want to damage you? So what you think of that spar? I am unsure." She needed to be more confident, she should reign in her power and not be afraid to hurt people simply cuz it inflicted fire power. But maybe she could give him pointers instead of a direct spar, she could miss on purpose, that was an idea!

"Help me study?" She asked surprised, having no idea her economy book was on the ground and visible, she looked around her and noticed now, "O-oh ehm this is advanced economy, my dad wants me to take over the business." She brushed her hair aside, silly her, she should have not made this worse then it was, "Though snacks and tea sounds nice."

She heard a little stutter in his voice and she gave him a sympathetic look, "Sorry." She was okay if he wanted to cancel now. She understood very well that no one would be happy to fight against an explosion quirker. "Oh ehm, well we could ask the school nurse to be around and if she has time, just in case for a back up. I have no intention to hurting you of course." She brushed some of her long black hair aside and realized she had not said her name, she was being chaotic and she hated it. "I am Rowan by the way, Rowan Sakamoto from 3-B." It was obviously not the intention to hurt him at all and she was trying to make sure that every party involved knew that, even her own brain. God, she was competitive so she had to avoid that now. It would be a shame to hurt this guy and his pretty face; Rowan calm down. Heartbroken did not need to mean that she was going to look at every boy and think of them as god dash damn handsome...

She gave a hehe type of smile, even brushing the back of her head and just wondering how stupid she was. "My father is convinced I will not hold on in this business for forever and I am an only child and it's a family business so here we go. I have to, it's actually pretty interesting but we will see what the future holds?" She quickly hunched down to put the book back in her bag and just got up to look at Monty and wonder what to say. He was really friendly and she wasn't used to that, not even after almost three years. She smiled as he introduced himself, "I like that." She almost said something else, about being lonely but why bother a stranger with that, so she managed to shut her mouth and say nothing more. She looked around when he seemed to be thinking about their spar. "That's not a bad idea." Wow in all the times she trained she didn't think about that... the damage she and Jasmine could have done, woops? Well at least there were sensible first years. She stopped in track and turned to look back at Monty, "Support class? But, what is your quirk?" How do you spar a support student? Though you should definitely not underestimate them, why else ask Haruuhi in her team.

She did not know what to say so at this time. It was just strange that the student still wanted to fight her while she just admitted that she had that power. "You are not afraid?" She asked surprised with her big eyes of wonder. Seriously? Was she making an issue that did not exist for some people? She felt a little worried but he apparently did not mind at all, he was just so honest and she was so surprised and did not know what to say. She did not even take an offensive in the idea that accidents happen, which was kind of new. She knew she was good with her quirk but indeed it could happen to everyone. She was actually surprised about this whole encounter so she wasn't going to say much about it. She wasn't sure at all and now she was just talking about something that she shouldn't worry about. She was just tired of fighting herself, It will be fine, darling.. She took a deep breath, spoke to Monty about something else.

"Oh, no actually we made up and he is okay with me being here, he is just definitely a man that wants a backup." She gave a silly smile and tried to play it off as something that would not be so bad. She simply knew what he wanted and she was okay with it. "I don't want to be in the public in the future anyway." She was convinced it would be a bad thing. But now that the introduction and so on were done, she would have to ask him something, his quirk, what kind of support student was he. "That's interesting, I am sure you would be doing fine." She tried to be uplifting and they would find a spot with water after walking around and she dropped her bag again. "So why did you pick support? To make items or should I say forge items?"

She would make sure her boots and canons were strapped correctly, her tennis balls were triggered and she had the other ammunition on her belt, she was going to do fine. She would see what would happen, "Okay so you want a spar, anything you specifically had in mind?" She wasn't sure what to do or where to start but she could maybe first show her explosion, but then again that might make him afraid of her power? Consequences.

She did not know what she said, it couldn't be something good considering everything. But yes, she was afraid people would hate her. Still going around in the vicious circle that people should hate her and hate her quirk because even her father did, would mean that she had no focus on the good side, for example, that her father had been just scared and unable to protect her and that they were now doing quite well together. It was a bit strange, and if you asked her utterly embarrassing that they were quiet and that he looked worried? Was worried the right word and yet he shook his head and said he wasn't. Which was a bit of a baffling moment for Rowan but she said nothing, managed to keep her poker face and just looked at Beaumont before the silence stopped and they continued talking.

She did not want to be in public, she told him that. She wanted to be behind the scenes. Not exactly like the informant because she wasn't that smart but yes she would not mind being more focused on Rescue and everything and that she would be able to pull the strings and only have to use her quirk in the worst ways that she could. Hm... it might be something to consider learning other things. She would have to ask someone for that advice but not today. She was today going to focus on what she could do and accept the training and sparring with this person and she tried to calm down a little. Stop making bad things up when nothing was happening yet, that was step one. It was also not only about her and she needed to realize that and she needed to remind herself of that, so she asked about Monty and was surprised he was in the support class. Surely his quirk sounded gross but there were other worse quirks out there probably. "Oh." She said when he explained it felt like a chronic disease. But she did decide to ask why he was in support class and nodded. "I don't think I am fit for the front lines, though quirk wise they say I am so I try." She gave a small smile, support class always felt like her heaven but she did not know that either. "I am sure you will do fine, and we are here to learn about our quirks, mine was very different when I first came here." It had been dangerous, out of control and erratic and now she could even make more power, more fire and she was fully in control, what a twist.

In the end, they would discuss the spar and she nodded, if that was how it worked for him, then sure why not. She could maybe try her hand to hand technique as well instead of fighting with her firepower, maybe she could do that a little later to make sure she could miss or not have him hit with the core of her explosion. Sounds like she had a plan and she followed his example, "Yes, let's do this."
