Laughing, Silvi waved to the old man. “As much as I’d like to agree with you Aiden, I’m pretty sure Mika is right.” She replied, before looking at Mika. “No semblance? Interesting…well I guess we better get going.”
Waving to Uncle Ube and Aunt Levi, who’d been watching with some concern from inside, Silvi started making her way back towards the academy with the others. “So Mika,” She asked. “At some point could I get a bit of help with my aura control, my aunt says that’s where my biggest area of improvement is needed.” Looking at her two team/class mates, a small shiver ran down her spine, making her tail twitch slightly; she felt so awkward and out of place as she towered over them.
“Say, Aiden…” She added, starting to fiddle with her braid as she walked. “Do you have a semblance yet? Mine is sort of a ‘hyper awareness’, lets me notice subtle things about what I’m fighting…though turns out it’s not much good against someone who can teleport…”

Silvi let out a slightly annoyed sigh as the twins vanished. “Is anyone else already sick of that ‘double-speak’ shtick of theirs?” She asked, tapping the tip of her blade on the ground; there was a sizzle and ‘pop’ of electricity as the trapped charge dissipated.
"Fuck that hurts my head....thankfully aura is pretty sturdy."
Sheathing her blade and collapsing her shield, she chuckled a bit as she placed a steadying hand on the still wobbly looking Mika. “Maybe, but you did get punted pretty hard.” With a deep and calming breath, she shut down her semblance; the faint glow receding from her eyes and the world growing a bit duller in colour and fuzzier in detail to her. She always felt a bit sad when that happened, but maintaining her semblance for extended periods of time was not something she was strong enough to do…yet.
Pulling out her Scroll, she looked at the time sighed again and stretched. “Well, I guess now we should get back…UNLESS SOMEBODY ELSE WANTS TO RANDOMLY ATTACK US?” She added, drawing a few chuckles from some of the locals who’d stopped to watch the display.

Gerad snorted at Gabriel’s comment about the twins. “You are using inferior tactics or gear then.” He replied matter-of-factly; mentally started to rough out how he would bring them down, though first he’d need some specific information on their species.
Those thoughts however, were put on hold as this ‘Mack’ individual approached. “I would take cover if I thought there was a need too.” He muttered, reflexively attempting to bat away Mack’s tail with one of his false hand. The implication that any of the down and outers that lurked on Trylin had the firepower to pose a genuine threat to him or his armour, got under Gerad’s skin. Blasted sky gazer…
He snorted once more, and brushed some invisible specks of dirt off of his armour. “All right then.” He said finally with a bit of a huff. “Let’s go see this Ence machine and get your equipment. I want to extract what is owed me from the insects carapace sooner rather than later.”

It's all right, just wanted to make sure you hadn't forgotten about us. :p
@Arthanus So, how are things coming along?
Real life does have an annoying habit of getting in the way.
No worries, most of the RPs I'm in at the moment are being slow.
She was about to answer Aiden when a couple of things happened at once; one, was her opponent blinking out of sight just as she connected and then hitting her from behind, and two, as she was doing her best to recover from being hit by her own counter, she saw Mika get punted down the block. “Shit”
Silvi could feel her frustration mounting; her semblance could let her see how her opponent was likely to move, even before they consciously committed to an attack, but this ‘jumping’ had no tells…or at least none she’d spotted yet. If fighting with others, don’t let yourselves get separated by your opponents. If you split up let it be on your terms.
“Aiden, on me!” She yelled as she pointed to where Mika had come to a stop. Her mind was working in over drive, but one of the key things her aunt had really impressed on her during their infrequent training sessions was developing the ability to think and act quickly even in the middle of a fight. With the flick of a finger, she reset Aegis Hammer to ‘combat power’ and swapped Moonlight Shard to ‘ranged’ mode.
Slamming her shield to the ground, as she triggered the Dust, she tucked herself on top of it as she did. The gravity charge tried to push away the object in front, and when (unsurprisingly) that didn’t work the force was directed to other way, the end result being that Silvi was launched in a moderately controlled fashion towards Mika. As she did that, she fired three shots around Aiden, creating a very temporary barrier of sizzling electricity between the boy and twins.
“C’mon short stuff.” She muttered, skidding to a halt beside the smaller girl. Bringing her shield back to the ready, she switched her blade back to ‘melee’ mode at the same time she pulled the trigger and discharged the last of the energy. More modern weapons had safeties to prevent the user from doing such things as they had a tendency to be both hard on the weapons and be potentially hazardous to the wielder; what it did was ‘trap’ the charge in the blade, where it would then discharge on the first object it struck…or into the user’s hand if the grip wasn’t resistant enough.

Yay, and yes Gerad isn't taking Gab's warning all that seriously; he's got a kind of inflated opinion about his own skills and the toughness of Garundin's and their tech.
