Babysitting.

Seriously.

Because that's what this is - being paired with a much younger student for this field trip's tasks. They said that their skills will be a good match, but she's pretty sure that that is bullshit. Really, who pairs her with a child?

She sits with her friends as long as she can and only finds him once they arrived at the museum and are sent out to ...do whatever their tasks say. She hasn't looked yet at the sheet that she was given upon leaving the bus and instead looks around to find the kid that was indicated to her ...there.

It takes her only a few steps to be close enough to have a conversation. "Let's go." No hello, no introductions. The faster they do this, the sooner she can go back to doing actually useful stuff.

"Fairly sure I got that from Dad and his side of the family. Just that nobody ever called it a superpower until the guy from this school showed up. Just "be careful"." She shrugs and gets up when he does.

"Yeah, without a doubt." He muttered as he popped his shoulder back in place. He knew that ache, it happened far to often. Usually it took more than being hit like that but...No ones ever hit him that hard before without a lot of fight. He pushed himself to his feet. "I'm fast. That's why they brought me here." He spoke once on his feet he was suddenly by the door, then back at her side again like he never moved. Though the dirt on his hair seemed to be gone now.

"Maybe it's the height. The short ones get the speed, the tall ones get the strength."

She pats his back again, but this time more softly to not send him flying again.

"Come. We have to call Mum."

"Shut up, I'm not done growing." He glared at her. He hated being short, he got tired of being assumed younger than he was which he blamed on his height. His words had little bit though. "I'm strong to... just not like that. Not like you or dad was.

Umm, yeah. Just let me go get my print first." He looked a little worried as he said it. He wasn't quiet ready yet.

"...I seriously hope I am done." She's always taller than most men in her surroundings, she really doesn't need to continue this. It's getting ridiculous.

"Get your print. I think the cafeteria had free wifi, and there were a few quiet areas. So I'll meet you there."

[victoryorvalhalla]

"Why? You could be as big as dad. We can both be like him." He spoke, it seemed to see no issue with his sister being as large as their father, but he didn't exactly think like a normal person should.

"I left it by the chair in the cafeteria... we can walk together." He spoke as he started for the door. "I dont know what I should say to her, Ylfa. I'm not good with people."

"Just tell her hi. She'll probably do the rest."

Not that she has any experience with how their mother deals with long-lost sons. But considering that she won't be able to hug him...

"...Right, okay, just ... fuck I hate being nervous." He grumbled as he walked with her. He was worried but he followed her, snatching the print off the floor by where his food had been abandoned. "Okay, lets do this."
