After her rather embarrassing performance with the boot at the end of the battle, Zahira had quickly fled from the scene and hidden away in one of the toilers nearby. Not only was she red from embarrassment and making a fool out of herself in front of so many (good looking!) people, she also really desperately needed to check if her makeshift weapon of a footwear was alright. These were her favorite shoes, after all, and they had made quite a nasty sound when they hit the ground as the imp had evaded. Luckily, the boot seemed to be alright in the end, but after everything that had happened, the girl felt far too flustered to crawl back to the group - so instead, she did what she was best at; watched from afar. She stalked the group and their discussion with a weird stranger, staying undetected the entire time. Of course, after all, she had years' worth of experience stalking people. She wouldn't be caught that easily!

From there, she had followed them all the way to the train station to join in their quest - or at least, she had meant to do so, but after encountering a mirror on her way to the train, she had felt it obligatory to check up on her appearance instead. Which, of course, almost led to her missing the train and having to run to catch it, after which she was again far too embarrassed to approach the others. So behind she had stayed once more, just followed quietly as the group had made their way to a... school?

Zahira tilted her head at the strange - and short! - boy that came to greet them. He was cute, but maybe just a bit too young for her. Maybe as a little brother figure! Aw, the kind she could dress up as a little sailor and hug to death every day! She beamed at the thought. His attitude was far too cool to fit that image, though. Hmm... Contemplating that, Zahira once again forgot to talk or otherwise make her presence known as she followed the group, only barely listening to the explanations they were given. She never had much of an attention span for spiels.

She did raise her gaze at the mention of voice-activated powers, though. Now that sounded so neat! You could even see your Friends with that thing? Oh! And the boy said that those were only the ones he'd discovered. Maybe there were even more, like, one for possible future boyfriends, or crushes, or- She was starting to get excited, the warning from earlier on no to mess with your powers too much somewhat forgotten.

She had to try this out.

"Crushes!" She shouted all of a sudden from behind the group, one hand raised in the air and eyes closed as if it'd somehow help something to happen. No such luck. Oh... oh, woops. "U-um, I, I mean," she rushed to correct herself, quickly bringing her hands down and behind her back sheepishly, eyes cast low, face red and one leg drawing an awkward circle on the ground. "G-go on..."
