[Internship] Real Life Danger! [Meara]

He waited for a short time near the car out front and was a bit surprised that the student had arrived closer to the time then he expected. So far most of the students had at least had proven somewhat punctual to about as much as one could expect. While they weren't as quick as he wanted he still felt pleased with the results he was given so far.

He looked at the coffee for a moment before accepting it gracefully though in silence pulling his pipe from his lips and sipping it briefly before tapping the pipe lightly to drop out the tobacco embers and taking his cane in hand as he gestured a bow and then towards the car to show moderate guidance and respect as well in gesture. "Ready on time... Good. Thank you as well, Perhaps you'll do well yet. Punctuality is a good trait for any person of good mind let alone a hero as well. Always strive to be up before the sun. Villainy doesn't wait for the sun so why should we?" He'd say with a relatively rough grunt. Making it hard to tell if he was being jestful or serious. That thousand yard stare of his making it hard to know just what reaction he wanted from you with his stone like cold exterior and rough skin making it that much harder to even know what he was really thinking. A hand gesturing to the car as well as suggesting they should be going soon. "Do you have any preparations? Are you alright training in what you're bringing?" Asking to be sure as he had no intentions of coming back over a wardrobe malfunction should one occur.

He couldn't help but snort as he often did, To anyone in his class knew he wasn't one on large praises but his eyes watching her carefully and little backlash in more words meant she was at least in the better view. He didn't like slackers and often demanded allot of his students. A hard ass both metaphorically and literally given his rough skin and exterior shell.

"Well good thing you limbered up... Should save us some time. Guess I'll have to give you points after all for being prepared. That's truly pleasing." He said letting out a light groan as he turned lightly to his car to guide her towards its direction as well. His cane giving a light shake and point towards it as well. "That's definitely a good quirk you have, Being able to arm yourself so quickly is a good advantage. What I wouldn't give to be able to turn off this large shell of mine so to speak. I almost envy you for being able to choose when you want your armor." Chuckling a bit as he made his way to the vehicle opening his door but not yet hopping in as they continued to speak briefly outside the dorms under the night sky and stars above.

"I was thinking something more physical... You need a bit more work on serious combat. Lucky for you I can show you a few things about how you'll have to deal with real villains in deadly situations... But first we'll be heading to one of the training zones off school grounds. It's not to far of a ride but its towards the forests and small mountains up north. There we can see what you can do and gauge what you need to work on." He said scratching his chin lightly. His claw like hand scratching and wrinkly rubbery but hard lizard like skin. Tossing his cane and his now unlit pipe in the car as well. The small thing looking strange as the large bulky teacher somehow feet in the tiny car. Almost looking funny how his large frame seemed to cram in the tiny car. One might imagine old clown cars at the mere idea of it.

He listened carefully as they began their journey, Listening to her words as he had a place out of town in mind on one of the many plots of land UA had purchased for various possible needs. Somewhere in the rough would allow training at full extent to be a bit easier without the risk of danger to the public and would allow the worry of destruction to also be much less of a worry. He also seemed to listen curiously and patiently as she spoke of her powers. It seemed like so many others of the young people each power truly did come with its own sake of problems and headaches, In this case quite literally on that last part.

He scratched at his rough wrinkly skin like that of a old armadillo at his neck as he thought on her words as they drove out of city limits heading towards their destination.

"Huh, Well, Various things... it'll be easier and less risk. People often still don't know how to feel about strange powers and people like us. That being said while yes things are better then back in my time. Its still better to be where no one will be uncomfortable. An also the lands we'll go to will be less chance of any damage that would be troublesome. We need to see what all you can do and help you get better! If you're holding back cause you don't want to destroy the grounds or school lands then we'll get nowhere! Best to eliminate those worries with a nice safe out of city grounds place!" He'd say giving a light snort as if to agree with his own point.

"Hmm, Seemed like you needed some aid in a few ways. We'll see how things go." He'd say not fully answering her question as he kept his eyes mainly focused on the road. Careful with his words so far as they would soon near their destination.

He couldn't help but allow a small shallow chuckle pass from his lizard like jowls. The gruff heavy voice of his bellowing out in a low baritone where even his small gravely chuckle carried a bit of heft to it. The large gruff teacher seeming to enjoy the small edge to her voice briefly. He couldn't blame the young ones for holding a little irritation or anger towards the general public. They were still young after all and needed time for the world to change further. At least they could be thankful to have it better then it was before in the earliest days of heroes or worse before... Some of the first went through far worse. But as way the way with progress and slowly those things which the public didn't understand they feared, But slowly as they came to understand things were slowly getting better.

His rough large hands gripped the steering wheel that seemed to small for his hands truth be told. In truth the entire care seemed to only just barely house his large frame as was. But even still he seemed to somehow even while lightly scrunched up keep the vehicle moving quickly and eventually taking a turn off road down a dirt road after passing the wonders of nature for a short bit in the drive. Trying to find the land UA had for such occasions. The ride off road becoming a bit rough but he didn't seem to even acknowledge it. Either he honestly didn't care or had taken this road before where it seemed normal. In either case as they drew near to their destination he seemed truly at least in expression oblivious to rough rocking thanks to the off road drive.

He seemed to scratch his chin now and again his rough skin at times being rough like the animal he was mutated to be like. Not catching most of her smaller comments when she was quiet.

"At least with this stage of training it'll be a little more full on. The light handed stuff of normal training can be left aside for now. It's best to make sure to see just how far you've come so far! I hope you've been fully practicing and keeping up with your training." He'd say as they slowly came upon the rocky clearings in a opening in the forest as his car began to pull up upon the dirt and park. The vista rather pleasing to see as a bit of a rocky land surrounded by trees and the sun rise slowly shining over it all gave quiet the nice sight at first glance.

He let a hefty snort and a grin briefly take his lips at her comment. His rough leathery lizard like hand tapping the dashboard briefly of the small but humbly reliable vehicle. "Right right, Reliability and comfort... Sad thing is beyond super pricey custom jobs isn't really allot of money in aiding to the minority like those with such mutations. So alas for now I have to stick with this ol gal. Anything that gets to point A to B is fine for now though... At that survives under my weight." He'd say chuckling a bit with that hefty gravely voice of his.

Not long after finally as they made it to their destination and clearing. A grassy terrain with some rocky terrain as well aways away from public areas and where damage or using quirks wouldn't cause anyone any problems or headaches in the aftermath. He'd slowly wriggle out of the car taking a moment or two. His large size almost comically needing to wiggle free as if briefly trapped in his confined seat.

Stretching once free and tapping his cane briefly on the ground bellow his large leathery feet. Claw like nails digging into the ground briefly as he took in a breath of the cool fresh air nature provided this far out. He did seem pleased at least that she spoke of keeping up with all her needed training and routines. She wasn't lazy and nothing he'd seen gave him cause to not believe her.

"Well before we get into more severe combat training lets start with something simple..." Pointing his cane at some nearby large stones and small boulders near the forest line not far off. "Try showing me what you can do by using your power to attack or destroy those obstacles. Lets get a idea what your output is at and then move forward from there." He said in brief instruction the can clacking back down on the ground after he was finished pointing to what he had been talking about.

He blinked several times in moderate observation. He had to admit that quirk of hers was a fine one. While his had done him well in the hectic days of heroes in there first days. He could definitely see the potential in one like hers. He had power and strength too in his own way but hers had not only power and skill she'd trained to use it. But also the luxury of being able to turn it on and off as needed more or less. He watched the display of boulders destroyed in a surprising plethora of ways. He felt impressed she had skills and style as well. Enough to gain a small smirk from the rough lathered skinned armadillo man.

"You've got some skill I'll give you that, A little flare too. Seems you've taken your training seriously heheheh." Giving a light snort from his large nostrils. His claw like hand briefly scratching at his rubbery leathery skin of his neck.

"We'll try something more spare wise soon. I'm just trying to gauge your skills more or less in the moment. Is there anything else you'd like to display before we move onto the next step?" He'd say curiously but clearly impressed. He found it rather interesting and seemed actually curious what else she might want to display trying to lead her on a bit and be somewhat cheerful and showing interest in what more she might have to show.
