Kasuke Mina
Jett was slightly annoyed that she didn’t take his comment seriously, the small smile she gave was one that of a ‘yeah right’ kinda thing. He was completely honest. He pushed back onto the back two legs of his as she moved on telling Ezra not to freak out like he did at lunch. Honestly they could do with some tables being thrown around. But he wasn’t interested right now getting in between them. Though when she brought up them being raised by heros, he closed his eyes. He didn’t want that pedigree just thrown about like just because of that they seemed better somehow, He knew that wasn’t what she...fully ment but he understood what she really meant. But it could be taken in such the wrong way.
He still didn’t say anything mostly because suddenly Toni came up behind him and rested her arm around his shoulders, getting WAY too close for his comfort. Especially when memories of what happened on C caused him to redden like a cherry. She then asked him if he liked Grapes… immediately he looked her right in the face and said, I..I uh prefer melons... With a straight face. Cause...he did. In many ways.
She went on to explain more behind grapes...it was clear what she was hinting at. The only reason he was embarrassed was because of Mina and Kaida next to them. Hell half the things she was saying could be taken wrong. Mina did indeed take them wrong, or rather, did not take the wrong at all. She knew that Toni knew exactly what she was doing and saying. Mina had a problem with girls with Toni’s attitude in general but right now, for reasons she could not fully figure out, Toni was number one on Mina’s hit list come the exercise.
Suddenly, Toni used her quirk to steal his belt and used the metal to in the zipper to rip it down, revealing his boxer briefs. His face turned even more beat red but he he was calm enough to quickly reach down and pulled them back up after Roy said he was wrecked again. I got pantsed not wrecked Flowerpower!”. He caught the cloak and threw it right back, he didn’t need a belt to keep his pants up, it was more for style as he had his pants tailored to him.
He did not look at either Mina and Kaida for the rest of the instructions, before moving towards the locker rooms. Mina, red in the face, didn’t look at Jett either. She wondered if she should say anything but if the same thing had happened to her, she would not want anybody talking to her until she’d calmed down. She gave Jett the same courtesy.
After Jett got his costume on, he quickly made his way over to the armory to stock up. Grabbing flashbangs, tear gas, flares, smoke bombs, making sure they were fastly secure under velcro pouches, so that Toni could not get a chance to pull the pins on some of them while in it. He also decided to change out his metal batons for a wooden staff, same reason. There wasn't much more he could change if he came acrossed her on the battlefield. He double checked to make sure he had his grappling hook, extra paracord incase he had to help the others onto the roof.
He stopped as he looked at the weapons, seeing the guns. He was trained by his mother, who was a gun fanatic, and wanted to make sure he understood them. He never really thought he would use them himself, but seeing how he was quirkless still at the moment… He walked over to Arsenal and asked if he was allowed to use one for the exercise. After being explained he would have to take a quick test, he nodded in understanding.
After choosing a .40, he moved over to the range and plunged his ears. After a moment of breathing, he shifted his stance to one foot forward and on back slightly. He leaned forward just a hair Pushing his gun forward while pulling back as well with his steadying hand. He unloaded the magazine after a few controlled shots, as knowing how many he fired he released the magazine as soon as it was empty and caught it as it fell out. Placing it on the table before him and picking up the second magazine, and reloading effortlessly. Pulling the slide back as the first bullet entered the barrel. He then took his time with these next shots, firing once, a moment pause, firing again, then suddenly back to quick succession. Till he was empty and then released the magazine once more before checking the barrel once again to be sure it was unloaded before dismantling it completely within a few seconds, laying the grip, slide, barrel, and spring on the table neatly as he did. Then after getting the approval to reassemble it, he did it once again in a few seconds, placing it, slide locked back on the table down range. When the target was brought back, Arsenal would see a solid grouping from his first magazine within the first two center targets, then a smilie face with his two shots at the beginning if his second magazine, and the smile with the rest . Of course it wasn’t perfect, but it was clear what he did.
Once approved he only took that gun, with ten magazines of rubber bullets, plus one in the gun. He then holstered the gun on his right thigh and made his way to the starting point. He had left his helmet off, having it locked into place on his upper back, just under the nape of his neck, so it was easy to slip in and out of and put on his head. His costume, though same as the one he wore that morning when he fought Roy, was black now, instead of white. Breaking the staff into two parts he slipped it over his back and slipped them under some straps that ran acrossed his back.
It was about then when he came upon Kauske and Roy talking. He was taken back really at Kauske’s outfit. While he might have expected something like that, it was still really ‘flashy’. But seeing her with her hair out long, she looked even more attractive than before...more like a woman than a girl. Needless to say, he liked seeing her in it very much, though he didn’t think it was very tactical to be wearing a dress while fighting. But to each their own. As he came up he heard Roy say essentially the exact same thing he did to her back in class. He didn’t think Roy would even like her like that.
Mina, though she had been looking at Roy as he spoke to her, didn’t really show any outward reaction until Roy challenged her, promising to settle the score. At this, Mina smiled and raised her fist in challenge. ”You’re on, Roy,” she answered before she saw Jett, and flushed again, though the memories of what happened in the classroom the more she studied his costume. Also from a family with a lot of pedigree and money behind it, his costume was possibly even more professional looking that hers.
”Wow,” she remarked, clearly impressed, and in a manner that might bring back faint memories of a little girl in a karate gi telling a shy little boy that his quirk was ‘really cool’, ”You costume looks impressive, and dare I say it, badass!”
Not knowing how to bring up either the Toni incident or his sudden gloominess upon her choice to ignore him without making things awkward, she instead tried to remedy the latter with a different approach. ”Guess what my Hero name is,” she asked him, smiling in an unusually warm, chilled out way. She was no longer standing on ceremony but talking to him in a similar way to how she talked to Donny yesterday.
Jett was somewhat glad she didn’t react to Roy's attempt at calling her beautiful. But when she looked at him and complimented his own costume was that a hint of a flush on her cheeks? He clearly didn’t know what the flush was about..was it her seeing him? Or him seeing her in her outfit? Whatever it was he smiled at her complaint. It was probably the first real one she gave him. He scratched the base of his head as he smiled.
'That quirk’s really cool!' a flash of a distant memory of another girl in pigtails came to mind. A tint of red came upon his cheeks. That girl...he couldn't remember her name at all...but thanks to her and being his friend...just for that day.
“Thank you Kasuke…I appreciate that.” He motioned to her dress. ”I honestly thought you were the most beautiful girl I saw, I didn’t think you would get even more so. Your costume is amazing as well! Fits you perfectly. He said giving her a genuine smile. When she she then asked what her hero name would be. He shrugged. ”Uh… Aphrodite? Athena? He was taken back at her sudden warmness...what happened between class and now? Whatever it was he was glad to see this part of her.
Mina shook her head, and put her hand to her chin. ”No, though Athena wouldn’t actually be a bad one. No, think back to our earlier conversation. I think you’ll like it when you guess it.” As she was talking, she’d noticed something. The pain was gone. It was clear ignoring Jett wasn’t the answer. She just had to relax when she talked to him and stop dwelling on other things. Besides, she can’t afford to dwell on other things anyways, if they wanted to win this exercise.
