[B]Prof. Namashiya Kotori[/B] -- [i]Still Waters[/i] There was a brief moment of surprise for the Songbird when Mika spoke. It did not take her long to discern that he was no longer fluent in what was his motherland's tongue. Looking at him from over the rim of her half-moon spectacles, Kotori continued to let the boy make his attempts with a hint of amusement on his face. Until of course he sighed, and spoke in Japanese. Nefer removing her gaze from his as he spoke of concerns he had, and how to clean his unfiorm. "I'll start woth the latter. If you look carefully, the uniform is self-cleaning for the post part." She waved towards the state of his clothes, and if he looked down, the boy would be able the staining of dirt and grass recede across the entire uniform. "It is laced with nanotechnology to help the uniform regenerate swiftly after any damage. This also happens to include stains. Designed it myaelf, pretty neat hm?" She quipped with a reassuring smile, while she leaned against a wall and folded her arms. "As for passing the teat, look at it this way. You are currently a level four esper. When I applied to join ENMA, I was the exact same." The Professor nodded softly, and then continued. "Have faith in yourself, and think outside the box a bit. After that, you will more than likely pass the test." Turning back towards the door that lead downstairs, she waved for him to follow her. "Also, feel free to follow me and get a bite to eat. It is not wise to try and complete the exams on an empty stomach."
