The youthful girl walked down the street in her casual but stylish wear, a white floral top that hang by her shoulder, showing a bright green vest strap that rests nicely on her shoulder, her jeans would be light blue that has a white flower pattern going up the sides of the legs and a stylish set of black boots that go just above her ankles. Sitting on her green head ever so nicely is a white baker boy cap, which she never goes out with out it.
Her beaming smile would show that she was right in her element, she shops around her was full of all types of products, clothes, toys, food, drinks and even shops that sold hero figurines, though they where usually very rare and tended to be small shops that where out of the way, even though hero's aided people, they where still slightly frowned apon, I suppose it would take more then an academy and good deeds to gain the peoples trust.
However this was no time to think of that, shopping time was a relaxing time, even if she had no yen to spend, it was always a pleasure to browse around the shops to see what deals where about and if any new products where coming in, oh! which reminded her, she hoped that new clothing products would come soon, after all the summer seasons where coming and it was a great chance to get a more summer look!

 The bustling sounds of the masses filled the air. As waves the sounds seemed to roll in and ebb away. These were the sounds that were unique to this place, the waves entire filled with the culture and people of the here and now. For the young student they felt foreign, almost like a confirmation that he was no longer in his hometown. Since his arrival he had not been to such a bustling place, nor had he been able to go sightseeing. A shopping mall, the very heart of a district. The people looking up at his appearance, sideways glances at his frost tipped hair and stark white skin. He stood out for not just his looks, but his attire as a whole. Wearing a black blouse with white Gillet, a yellow tie accompanying it. His white dress pants and the soft white gloves covering his hands. It was an outfit that not many people his age would often find themselves wearing. The soft clouds that formed with his every breath disappearing rapidly in the comfortable warmth of this time of year. It wasn’t warm, but to the boy it almost felt like it. Archibald was used to the stares, if not for his quirk it was his attire. The fact people might stare based on his clear western origins bothered him very little. He saw the small shops, clothes were shown in windows, cafe’s and even small stalls caught his eye at every turn. With confident steps he made his way through the collection of shops that littered the place, even finding one that celebrated hero’s to his surprise. Around him, he could spot the occasional passerby who’s quirk was visible, something that made him feel strangely at ease. His left hand, gloved as it was, gently brushed some of the hairs out of his face. As always the tips were slightly moist and frozen, allowing him to feel the skin on his forehead and wiping it dry with the back of his hand. The excited wondering eyes of the boy scouted around until he found a bench, sitting himself down on it close to the edge. The gentle breeze was a welcome distraction from the sun’s rays regardless of the actual temperature being mild. A soft sigh of relief escaped his lips with a tuft of mist to accompany it. His mind filled with the realization that surely the summer would become a problem to deal with. He closed his eyes gently, keeping them closed for a second before opening them again. The scene before him had once again changed. The people once there shifted to a new position, new people joined and some had left his field of vision. It took a second before he noticed a girl, her green hair and eyes a detail he could hardly miss. Somehow she caught his eye, realizing only now that he was staring. He broke the line of sight with her as he stood up. Normally he would be more energetic, but the new environment was still taking its toll on him. He simply took a step forward to be on his way. The desire to explore the place overtaking him as he started to wonder what direction he would go next. |

Just behind the green haired girl was another youth, male and thin with a bored expression on his face. He was wearing a smart white buttoned shirt that was unbuttoned at the top, neat denim jeans and bright white trainers, thin rimmed oval glasses and was fiddling with a phone in his pocket. Obviously he was careful of where he was going and was keeping the green haired girl in his eye-line. She had a tendency to run off at the slightest sign of something shiny or flowery and he needed to keep an eye on her... if only so that she doesn't buy too much like last time...
The boy sighed,
"Why do you get roped up like this Tomohiro?" He asked himself quietly
He knew he was gonna be left as the bag boy again... But at least it was a lovely day and it was just the shopping center they were visiting and they didn't have to go all over town. At least... that's what he hoped. A light breeze came through the center, much to the relief of some of the people around him. Busy shopping centers do tend to get a bit warm after a while, not that he ever was fussed the temperature.
Just as he was thinking that he noticed the girl was suddenly a lot further away than he thought she was,
"Hey, Meiko! Slow down!" He called after her, "It's not like there's an emergency!"
He jogged after her, they were both capable enough but you never know what could happen in a busy shopping center

Meiko broke out of her daydream as she stopped and waited for her brother to catch up "I'm sorry brother, I may have got a bit too over-excited" she rubbed her head giving her brother a cheeky smile "it's felt like ages since I've been out to town since we arrived at the academy" she gave her brother a softer smile, knowing that he is probably bored accompanying her with shopping, but all the same he attends regardless, maybe it was a brother thing? "did you want to stop by a café? maybe we can get one of your favorite drinks while we are there, may treat for being such an awesome brother hehe".
It was then a figure standing up caught her eye, it wasn't for any particular reason either, He has dressed rather smartly a black suit in a lovely yellow tie sitting nicely against his white shirt, he looked like he was around their age too. Meiko blinked a few times before realizing that he was foreign, was he lost? he did seem kind of unease, at least to her he seemed to like it, hmm, maybe it would be too rude to simply walk up to a stranger and assume they were lost. It was at this time she began to fiddle with her fingers, signs of being anxious, it was always a weakness of hers, regardless of her wanting to be as friendly as possible, there was always and since of anxiety that would hold her back at times.
However, her stubbornness tended to outweigh it at times forcing her to push it aside and jump in not thinking, which exactly what happened! She shook her head, forgetting that her brother was there for a brief moment, and walked over to the black-haired stranger "H-hey there! how you doing! are you lost? do you need help? what's your name?? I'm Meiko!!" The words came out of her like a waterfall, an uncontrollable one at that, damn it! what am I thinking! damn it girl what's wrong with you!!, she thought to her self as a light green blush glowed on her cheeks as the embarrassment was clearly shown on her face, certainly not a good first impression.

It was the girl that caught his eyes before that was the first to walk up to him. A similar looking boy behind her which seemed to be along with her. The way of dressing themselves was casual, but not too casual. It was charming in a way. With a smile he realized she may have been under the impression he was lost, and expected a mild mannered and soft response. He was quick to find out he had judged that wrong. A smile grew on his face when the girl introduced herself and as the words kept flowing he realized her face turned slightly green. Perhaps a part of her quirk? Without thinking he reacted, feeling like she was a kind person.
“Ah it is a pleasure to meet you! I am Archibald, and I’m not really lost as much as unfamiliar around here... hehehe... he”
He tried laughing it off before realizing the reason she thought he was lost because he was looking around like he had done. He quickly recomposes himself and shook his head, animating his response with his hands as he spoke.
“I am simply new around these parts. I have just arrived here a few days ago. The boy behind you is a friend of yours I assume? It is a pleasure to meet you too!”
He almost wanted to give the boy a handshake before realizing he didn’t need to. Retracting his hand he looked at the two and smiled, a warm and kind smile. He brushed his hair back a bit again, as it slowly sunk down into his field of vision again, a little tuft of cold air visibly escaping his mouth.
“Oh eh, you two wouldn’t know where to find a nice place to buy a cold drink is, one with air conditioning perhaps?”
As he spoke the tips of his hair slowly got more and more frozen, and he clearly started to feel the rays of the sun. It wasn’t that he was getting colder or warmer, but he was focusing more on it and it was starting to get annoying to him. The two seemed friendly enough in his eyes, they were about the same age, even if he found it somewhat difficult to pinpoint their age precisely. |

Tomohiro caught up to his sister and listened to what she was saying
"[smear:#64fffc]Well sure, that'd be great. If you want, there's a good one just a few... shops... that way...[/smear:#64fffc:0]"
He trailed off because he knew that look, Meiko saw someone in need and wanted to help them, he looked in the direction she was looking and noticed a stranger getting up from a bench. He was smartly dressed, a suit and yellow tie with some nice gloves too. He looked back at Meiko just a moment to assess what she was going to do and like clockwork, he followed her. Meiko was rather predictable when meeting new people, it was only going to be a matter of time before her stubbornness would beat out her anxiety
When they got to him, Meiko started talking, words pouring out of her mouth like a waterfall, but thankfully the stranger took it in good humor and introduced himself. He even extended his hand out to Tomohiro, which he almost took. The awkwardness of the handshake that never happened was better than any ice-breaker really
"[smear:#64fffc]Nice to meet you Archibald, I'm Meiko's brother Tomohiro[/smear:#64fffc:0]" he said politely, "[smear:#64fffc]and yeah, there's a Cafe just over there[/smear:#64fffc:0]"
Tomohiro pointed in the direction of cafe/coffee shop just a few shop fronts north of where they were,
"[smear:#64fffc]It's got air conditioning, WiFi and the Iced Drinks are really good there[/smear:#64fffc:0]"
Despite the fact he never had any problem with the temperature, ever, he fully understood what it was like if someone needed the cold for comfort or vice versa.

Meiko lowered her head slightly as she let out a soft sigh, raising her head up and giving both of the boys a smile "Its nice to meet you too Archibald" she would then reach over to her brother and wrap her arm around the back of his head "but yes, this is my brother and as he said, there is a café not so far from here, you'll be nice a cool there" She could totally understand about not liking the heat, any sudden change of heat instantly makes her drowsy and go into a few hours sleep, which is so inconvenient.
As the three got talking more they eventually made their way to the café where she ordered her self a ice peach tea, it wasn't like she wasn't allowed anything hot, as she loved hot chocolate, but she couldn't resist the taste of peach's, she even ordered her self a strawberry cheesecake, ah yes, sweetness, her greatest enemy, at least it would be if it wasn't for her quirk that was naturally healing her constantly, making her Metabolism much faster then most people, being in a constant state of good health had its good perks, but it does make you a tad carefree at times when it came to sweets, speaking of sweets...
"Tomohiro, be careful with the coffee, you already had two this morning already, you won't sleep tonight if you have too much, that and it's not that healthy either" Meiko had the nerve to say this as she places a small bite full strawberry cheesecake in her mouth. Meiko then turned to Archibald "so, what brought you to Japan? do your parents move here due to work?" she asked with curiosity, she looked at the boy with many other questions in her mind, like why was his hair wet? wait, no, it's frozen now? was it his quirk? if so, what sort of quirk was it? it wasn't exactly uncommon to see quirkness people, the whole population was split fifty fifty so there was an equal chance to meet either a quirk user or somebody that was quirkless

With a small smile Archibald looked at the pair, they seemed friendly enough and as they pointed him in the direction of one he found himself entering a carefree conversation with them. The two were clearly close, and for someone like himself who moved here without any relatives it was a mix of both nice and confronting. He made his way with them to the little cafe. Toying with the money he held in his wallet, all bills he had not gotten used to yet, until he got the right amount for his order. An ice tea was all he decided on after going through the list that allowed him to stay within budget.
He took a seat with the siblings, sitting at a corner of the space on a comfortable chair. His eyes focussed on the two as he held his glace. The girl ordered a cake that looked sweet, tasty and while he had no desire to eat it at that moment it was very inviting. He took a glance over at the boy, seeing what he ordered as he heard the comment on the coffee. Archibald loved coffee, but thanks to the heat it felt uncomfortable to consume it if it wasn't cold enough outside or cooled in some way. He didn't drink it black, a taste he felt was akin to eating the black tar off the streets over the sweet taste of milk and sugar in the black liquid.
With her eyes once again focused on him he realized the rant to her brother had ended and the questions the curious girl asked would once again continue. He smiled as he replied, a tone in his voice that was friendly but matter of factly;
"I came here by myself actually. My parents are back home in the Nethelands. Soon I will be starting as a first year student at UA high, what about you two? I assume you are all from around here?" |

Tomohiro sighed slightly at Meiko wrapping her arm around the back of his head, but was thankful that they were all agreeing to go to the café, resting his feet would be nice right about now.
They eventually made their way to the café after much time talking. He smiled slightly as he walked in and smelled the coffee beans in the air, that slight bitterness that was so delicious to him, he went up and paid for a nice hot coffee, black as night with a shot of caramel instead of sugar, he felt like treating himself for some reason. Some people would probably think it wasn't the sort of day for a hot beverage, but to him, anytime was coffee time. Tomohiro made his way to the table after gaining his own drink and sat down, taking a sip of the coffee right away, not even needing to blow it or wait for it to cool down.
On cue, Meiko started to scold him on his choice of drink, sure he liked caffeine but it wasn't as if he was addicted or anything, he could stop any time he wanted... he hoped... but there was no reason to let Meiko know of that thought line, so instead, he just stared into her green eyes with his own practiced brown eyed stare he'd built to stand up to bullies, some would call it a 'Dead Apathy Stare' in fact. As he stared he simply replied with a slight smirk,
"I'll stop drinking coffee when they make something better than coffee, you on the other hand, should cut back on the sugar"
He decided to stick his tongue out at her child-like for added effect, his bright blue tongue a stark contrast to Meiko's hair and eyes
"So there"
The conversation moved on and he listened to Archibald with the same interest he showed outside, he was from the Netherlands, which was very interesting because Tomohiro had never met someone from there at all. He had his own questions but didn't want to flood the poor guy, instead he replied,
"Yes we are, in fact we're going to the same school... small world huh?"
This added another question to Tomohiro's list, he noticed that the ends of his hair kept freezing, thawing and re-freezing, so he assumed he had a quirk that was liked to the cold but, again, didn't want to flood him with questions for the moment. Questions could come later, for now, it was chill time... and of course, coffee time

Meiko frowned at her brother slightly as he answered back, saying that she should also cut down on the sugar, her cheeks would puff up slightly as her expression turned into an annoyed pout "I eat what i want pfft" and with that she turned her gaze away from her brother and took another bite from the cheese cake, Meiko's stubbornness seemed to be unmatched at this point, specially when it came to sugar based food.
Ignoring her brothers childish act, she turned to Archibald with a surprised look on her face, he travelled all the way here by him self, that must of been scary, but that aside, what a mature choice, he must take his Education seriously to take such a chance like that "Like my brother said, we are also attending UA, however I'm a year above him, he attended a little late you see" She grinned cheekily at her brother, teasing him that she was a step a head of him "but I do hope you enjoy it there, maybe we can get lunch some time, there are full of wonderful people with all sorts of quirks there".
She would take a drink of her iced peach and gave a nod "like this one girl, she is a squirrel, she can even claim trees and speak to squirrels too! she is super adorable, aaaand, there is this one other girl who can control elements with her feet" she would point to her feet "she's cool as well" Meiko seemed happy talking about the different types of people and their quirks, which brought up the question "say, your attending UA, right? what sort of quirk do you have" she awaited the boys answer, as she lightly drunk from the straw of her iced peach drink.

The squabble between the two continued on the topic of food, surely a sign they were tight. However it made Archibald all the more nostalgic for seeing his own family do the same. He smiled hearing the fact the two were fellow students from UA. His voice broken up by a quick sip of his iced tea he replied;
"Oh its nice to hear that. a small world indeed if you ask me. Not going to lie though, it has been nice so far. The few people I have met were incredibly nice."He smiled as he felt the tips of his hair freeze once again, and the rest of his hair would have a thin sheen of water over it. He stared at the girl as she explained the quirks she talked about. Compared to those quirks his was relatively mundane. He didn't feel the need to always explain it as clearly but he felt it would be best to do so in this regard. As thin mists escaped his mouth he put his hands together and as he opened them, he pulled an thin sheen of ice between them.Layer upon layer build up between his hands as the water emerged in sheets and froze instantly. Covertly close to his chest so no one would see, an ice cube the size of an inch squared. Hiding it and making sure no one but the two saw he showed the ice cube.
"I am able to control water and ice, freely create and model them using my mind. My ice is extremely hard and I myself, am very cold."He smiled and offered the ice cube to the girl for her drink. He wore gloves so the liquid nor solid state of the cube ever touched his hands. He looked at the coffee of the boy as he replied:
"I won't do it, but I could also turn that drink rather cold, rather quickly. But as I said, I have no desire to do so. But what about you two?"He offered a kind smile as he focused on the two. His quirk made some people afraid to talk to him, however he was always happy to explain that he wasn't out to be dangerous. |

Tomohiro chuckled at his sister's response, he could almost act out her responses sometimes she was that predictable. But he loved her no matter what and he wouldn't change her in any way, so he continued to sip his coffee.
He chose wisely to put a shot of caramel in it this time as it was sweet but it wasn't overpowering. The bitterness of the coffee cut through it perfectly, allowing the full flavour of the roast to cover his tongue. They had a good server today, the coffee was strained just right and had no granules not dissolved in the drink. Had he been generous to himself he may have added a touch of nutmeg to it to add another flavour dimension but he felt like that would be overdoing it slightly. Besides, the barista sometimes would add too much and the nutmeg would mask the flavour of the coffee too much for his liking and could quite possibly ruin the experience. This wasn't a jab at all servers or baristas, it was just his personal taste, which is why whenever he could, Tomohiro liked to add his own extras to his own coffee, not that he would overdo it like adding whipped cream or marshmallows, that was more Meiko's style. Provided of course that it was in Hot Chocolate, which was always waaaay too sweet for him.
Some would say that Tomohiro was mad about coffee but he could never understand why anyone would ever think that...
Tomohiro's mind suddenly jumped back into the conversation as the boy, Archibald, started to explain his quirk. He observed the boy create an ice cube from his hands. A freezing based quirk is what it seemed to be and it looked to be constant to a point. Tomohiro's immediate thought was on how difficult it was to put on a T-Shirt without making it wet, but then again, Archibald must have some measure of control so he didn't make a soaking mess of his clothes.
The boy then explained that he could make a boiling hot drink frozen by touching it,
"Fascinating" was the word that unconsciously left Tomohiro's lips after Archibald finished
He placed his drink down for a moment
"I appreciate you not freezing my drink, I'm enjoying it too much after all!" he said with a slight chuckle and a smile, "You say your quirk makes you very cold? Well... mine is to do with my blood and my body temperature"
He shifted a little in his seat a little so he was more at attention, more so he could more properly concentrate on the appropriate temperature of his body so he wouldn't start steaming,
"I can control the heat of my blood at will and therefore it's body temperature. Moreover the hotter it runs, the better my body runs, so to speak. My muscles, internal organs and other inner workings are unique in that regard. Also as you can see from my pale demeanour, I have bright blue blood, as reflected in my veins, tongue, cheeks, etcetera"
He held out his hand in front of his, as if he was a waiter holding out a tray,
"You see, if you were to place an ice cube on my hand now, the heat from my hand is enough to crack it. But no matter how hot I run, my skin won't ever burn someone, it doesn't work that way"
He kind of enjoyed talking about his quirk to someone else and to have them listen to him too. It was nice to be listened to for a change if he had to be honest with himself.
