 [It helps to know sometimes that Satou has magical empathy: She can pick up on emotions in a room as if they are her own, and turns that emotional energy into magic. To compensate for a broken sleeping schedule, she often 'recharges' her magic when she's at home... Which is now Fairy Haven... with Aizawa... and also, Mic.

who have the feelings.]

Something's wrong with me...

[have a melancholy, teenage girl sigh.]

Not like, health-wise. Health is fine. Magic is fine. Work is fine. But then I get home and just... Especially when Mr Aizawa and Mr Mic are in a room together....

[She probably meant to mark this as private, but has forgotten. Oops. Sorry to call you men out.]

I feel strange... Like all warm and antsy. Am I afraid of them, or? [lowering her voice to a worried whisper:] Do I have an Electra Complex? What do I do?

[vociferates]

[Excuse him what?]

Uuuuh, You can just call me Yamada, or Hizashi.

[how does.... he address...... the rest???? Does she have a crush on Shouta? That's, almost cute is what that is?]

[sleepingbagsensei]

[Please excuse him while he hits his head somewhere.]

Satou. Where are you?

[priceofmagic]

... Your name isn't Mic? Like Michael..?

[priceofmagic]

Uhhhh...

[She's about to answer, when she realizes:

HE HEARD ALL OF THAT??]

UMM. I'm. Going on a run, bye. [Packing a bag so she can go live in the mountains or something!!!]

[vociferates]

Hahaha, no no! Present Mic is my hero name! Hizashi Yamada is my civilian name. Probably kind of confusing, huh?

[he grins a little, awkwardly.]

So you gonna tell a guy where you're at? Maybe we can pick up icecream or something and talk your problem out?

[r_ratedcostume]

[First off, the Mr. Mic totally gets her. How cute Satou~]

Oh sweetie.

Want to talk somewhere without those dorks around?

[priceofmagic]

Ah. That makes sense. Your hero name just doesn't sound as... unique. As Shouta's. I couldn't tell.

[The offer for ice cream almost gets her... until she realizes what he meant by 'problem.' Her problem... which was apparently public... and is now a bigger problem.]

WHA-- What problem?! No problems here!

[priceofmagic]

[Midnight is a safe neutral party,

so Satou nods.]

Y, Yeah... I don't know what to do. Is this normal around them?

[vociferates]

[He just stares, taken aback.

until he starts laughing, holding his hands up in a surrender gesture.]

We don't have to talk about it!! But hey, icecream sounds like a good idea right?

[he'll also lean in and whisper conspiratorially]

If you want the truth, I gave him his hero name! Hahaha

[sleepingbagsensei]

[Satou no!]

Wait.

[Please tell him she would wait.]

Let me check on you first.

[Wow... way to make it sound forwardly awkward... How does one parent.]

[bigbadrose]

Remember the prom?

[priceofmagic]

[She's even more embarrassed when he lets it go. Ugh, she feels so stupid! Stupid is mixed in with her confused dokis now, and it's a really gross combination.]

F, Fine, I-I mean... Without Shouta though... [Satou covers her face and whines at herself. Does she really have a crush on her dad figure? She knew she was a broken person, but this is just gross!]

... It makes me think of a stationary shop mascot.

[orlokbutterfly]

[He's probably awful for this, but he can't help himself but to ask. Besides, 'electra complex' doesn't sound like a good thing.]

You okay, doll? I can lend an ear if you'd like.

[priceofmagic]

But I'm okay! I think! Just broken on the inside, and gross, and disgustingly broken.

[Has she said the word 'gross' yet?]

I'm sorry!

[priceofmagic]

I do, b-but... That was a whole room full of people, kissing and flirting. This is just two people. It shouldn't affect me unless one of them is really desperate.

[rude.]

[priceofmagic]

[AHAH. Gale is a super handsome guy. He probably knows a lot about these icky emotions, and how to gently turn a girl down!]

Guardian Gale! Oh, yes! Thank goodness. You're just who I need to talk to!

[vociferates]

[okay no he laughs harder at that, his shoulders shaking, the expression shoving his eyebrows up towards his forehead.]

THAT'S AMAZING, I'm not going to be able to un think that now!!! Perfect, Satou! Hey, so where are you? I'll come pick you up and it's a date.

[Hizashi no.]

[burnt_offering]

Warm and antsy doesn't sound like fear... [Not in the least, and he's felt a lot of warm and antsy this week. Which leads him to think that she's definitely got a thing for a couple of older guys.] I dunno anything about Electra Complexes though.

[orlokbutterfly]

[Aww Satou, so sweet He actually briefly looks a little surprised at that response, but he's glad he asked now.]

Sure, you've got my attention. [He pauses.] Do ya want to talk over video or would you rather speak privately in person?

[sleepingbagsensei]

Satou Kuroneko.

[He says this making sure he got her attention.]

Being broken isn't okay. Just for a moment, or will I have to chase you?

[Sounds like a challenge.]

[bigbadrose]

[COUGHS AND TRIES TO STIFLE HER LAUGHTER--]

[BRB CHOKING ON HER SCARF TO STOP THE LAUGHING!!!!]

[BREATHE ROSE BREATHE!!]

[DEEP BREATHS!!!]

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah well... maybe I should get you into a room with Fluffy sometime and see how bad it is as a base level. [Giggles.]

[Headshakes.] Elektra complex though... do you want to stab one of them and snog the hell out of the other?

WHEN you're not in the room with them together I mean.

[priceofmagic]

DA-- [be cool, satou.

She sighs, trying to regain her composure. If she makes a fool of herself in front of Mic, it won't matter if this is a crush or fear: Her pride will take an irreversible hit!]

I'm at Fairy Haven, still.

Private--because he's ironically the only one who remembers this part because he's paranoid

[foriamhere]

[He is probably the last person who should be talking to anyone about emotions considering he exists in a constant state of emotional constipation, but he's going to give it a shot anyway.]

So it's just when you get home, huh?

[He's rubbing at the back of his head, thinking.]

Satou my girl, how does your magic work again?

[Because he remembers it had something to do with emotions, and obviously it's emotions that seem to be going haywire, so...]

[priceofmagic]

Ah...

[Her flustered and nosy state fizzle out. Satou averts her gaze, ashamed. She was acting like he wouldn't care, but of course he does. This is Shouta. And whatever her feelings are, she knows he cares about her.]

... I'll wait. Just long enough for my phone to recharge, though.

[priceofmagic]

[Satou pauses, considering Rose's wise words. She's even thinking hard enough to not get embarrassed by them.

Slowly, she shakes her head.]

I don't think so. When I'm in the office or at the training center, all that I can think about is work.
