@liferusher“Hey you can just get a new paper from the teacher if you are so desperate to catch it. I doubt there is anything interesting on it anyway."Bell was too focus on her newest creation to catch what the girl had said. She’d made the paper bird’s wings flap as it danced around in her palm for a bit longer then she should have. She had a bad habit of using her esper ability to do mundane things, however, her peers never seemed to notice or at the very least never said anything about it. Telekinesis was a pretty common ability after all and levitating a piece of paper wasn’t that difficult, however, it was a bit of a task to hover the paper about like she was and not rip it a part and scramble your brain at the same time.
"A-are you alright? I didn't know you disliked the paper that much..."Bell’s eyes snapped to Rikka, she was a bit taller than the girl that was suddenly next to her so Rikka wouldn’t have to look up by much. The origami bird fell to her hand as Bell’s cheeks began to turn rosy.
“I-I don’t d-dislike paper at all. I just folded it…” Bell said meekly.
Sweat began to form on Bell’s brow, her mind screaming. DON’T BE WEIRD JUST ACT COOL!1!!1!!!!!1
(she imagined the 1’s mixed in with the exclamation points as well.)
The school bell rang which made Bell jump just a smidge, the teen clinched the paper bird in her fist and shoved it deep in her bag’s side pocket.
“Well, time for the assembly, nice chatting with you… better get a seat before all of them are gone.” Bell spoke nervously. The encounter had been draining on her and adding to her fatigue from a bad night’s sleep.
Bell scurried away from the girl and was lost in the crowd of teens that were shuffling into the hall. She screamed at herself for being so weird, ‘that was the perfect time to make a new friend you idiot!’
Bell tried to remain focus on the speaker as well as she could but she caught herself dozing off a couple of times before she gave herself a silent slap on the cheek. She straightened herself and focused on the Headmasters warning.
‘Why would someone break into a school just before classes were coming back into session, surely everything worth stealing would be under lock and key while not being used… Well I guess I could easily enough break a lock but a student using an esper ability to break into a locked door would possible give their identity up.’ She pondered on this a bit longer then she should have.
