[color=lightpink]"Ah well,"[/color] Kobi started, easily resting Blush over her shoulder, [color=lightpink]"I use a lot of aura to manage a heavy offensive. The armor keeps me safe, though."[/color] This would be her partner for the next four years, so she saw no harm in explaining her strength to him. Besides, she was always happy to draw attention to her beautifully crafted armor: if it wasn't for her soft and polite speech, the money put into her defense was a hint at her wealth. Still, enough about her. It'd be rude to not return the wonder he had for her, though it came off as rather forced and a little awkward. [color=lightpink]"You're skilled with your axe."[/color] 

Thankfully, Cobalt offered his hand. She replaced Blush onto her back and took his hand with a friendly smile...which faltered slightly as he continued to speak. [color=lightpink]"Oh. Well. Faunus aren't all bad,"[/color] she said diplomatically.  This would be her partner for the next four years; this was not something she wanted to deal with. She pulled her hand back and fixed her hair, gaze drifting away as she came up with another topic for conversation: [color=lightpink]"Ruins. Do you know the way?"[/color]
