Akira jumped a bit when Xan approached him. He'd been so focused on checking the Impulse he hadn't been completely aware of his surrounding. Of course, this may have been because Xanatos wasn't what his mind registered as a real threat. "Thanks for the words of advice. It's true I feel a little nervous, but I think it goes further than that." He said calmly. I was so sure of everything I did at the academy. But this.." He sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "It not just simulations anymore. It's life. Not just mine either." Still with that thought out he managed to smile. "Still... Thank you. I think that I'll feel better after I've adjusted to the change." He finally said before Lucia joined them. This of course, made him jump just as he had with Xanatos. "Ah... L-Lucia. You were here?" He asked before quieting up a bit and listening to her. She was going to show them what they were up against. Akira was curious to be honest. He wanted to know. Though he was sure knowing wouldn't do anything for his nervousness. Or his confidence. "Oh... Um... I'm of the Orb Union. I live with my mother and have two siblings. Both younger than me." Akira smiled while discussing his family. He treasured them. "Still... I joined because I wanted to change myself. And I wanted to help my family. I don't want anything to happen to them. If I can become strong. I can protect them." He said growing a bit more cheerful. "Oh and as far as my favorite color goes. Red I suppose." He admitted laughing a bit. "What about you Lucia?" He asked trying not to seem as awkward as earlier.
