"Nitoh," he groans, but doesn't make any moves to push him off. He'd just find some new way to lie on him.

"She's always been like that," Haruto answers, "protecting people even without powers, I mean. It's..." He trails off for a moment, considering his word choice. "It's nice to see her bounce back so well. Not everyone does." Sometimes the cracks left by a Phantom simply never healed.

[ringbeast]

He considers Rinko. "She was strong all the way, I think. S'good she's on our side! And man, I feel like even if you didn't have powers, you'd find a way to be like that too. Nothin' holds a guy like you back for long, does it?" he wiggles his booted foot over Haruto's lap in an encouraging sort of way.

[ringwizard]

"She's already scary, and she even likes me," Haruto agrees, batting weakly at the foot waggling at him. "I'd try. I can't exactly turn my back on them, can I? Could you?"

[ringbeast]

He straightens up, "Hey, she likes me!! She just doesn't- She likes me, okay?" Defensive or not, he does feel justified in thinking that, at least. Sure, she left him in jail, but eventually it all got figured out, right? No harm no foul.

[ringwizard]

"I didn't say she didn't!" Haruto answers, snickering a little. "She locked me in jail, you know, the first time we met."

[ringbeast]

"You too?!" He snaps to. "I mean... Well, she didn't lock me in jail but she--" he pauses, feeling a bit outed. "But yeah, she left me there. It was that thing I talked about with Medusa's sister." He clears his throat.

[ringwizard]

"Ah, that," Haruto says. His feelings are still mixed, on the matter. It wasn't his call to make, he knows that much, but someone else bearing this burden--Nitoh was bad enough.

"And what did she leave you in jail over, again?" he teases. "She took me in on pretty much nothing..."

[ringbeast]

"Well, I saw Medusa's twin and thought it was her so I followed her and then the campus police got all shirty," he huffs. "And she thought I really was harassing a high school girl, so!"

"I wasn't... Even though she was really cute."

[ringwizard]

"Should I be congratulating you for that?" Haruto teases, knocking at the shin on his lap with his knuckles.

He considers. "If she looks like her sister, then she must have been," he comments, "hopefully less, ah, dangerous, though." Medusa's snakes coming at him--he remembers that very clearly.

[ringbeast]

"Yeah, you should, I broke that case!" he says, all fierce pride.

"Yeah, she was mostly just sad and scared..." Nitoh says, sighing. "She was abroad when the whole thing went down. I hope White Wizard's treating her right."
