	[color=silver][b]H[/b][/color]is mom once said that he would become even stronger than her. That he had the potential to become number one. Most the time he liked to believe she was simply exaggerating. But sometimes he understood where that belief came from. The sheer flow of mental information that he could intake was baffling. And if he didn't manage it meticulously, it became crippling. There was the loud and sharp agitation that Raven gave off; it threaten to cut and shred. There was the paralyzing anxiety of Hikari, who seemed to really need a friend. Then there was Karen. Who gave off the harshest of firewalls. As if she could live her life without anyone or anything and be fine with it. 

	[b]H[/b]er's was difficult to process because he couldn't tell if it was a front or just how she was. Both options were sad and he couldn't deny a part of him wanted to help her but an even bigger piece wanted to watch her burn away.

	[color=silver][b]Y[/b][/color]usuke sighed, now content to have effectively shifted Beyond the Barrier to filter mode. Something that allowed only the essentials in; emotions and minute proddings that were meant or inadvertently directed towards him. He tenderly grasped the back of his neck with both hands, massaging where tension had knotted up,both emotional and physical.

	[b]H[/b]e hated feeling like [i]The Shadow Leader[/i]. It just didn't fit him anymore. He would have tossed it away a [i][b]long[/b][/i] time ago but his anger and frustration had the tightest hold on the moniker. At this point it was as if had a split personality sometimes. 

	[b]T[/b]hen he felt Diana's cautious yet longing mind approaching him. 

	[color=silver][b]Y[/b][/color]usuke slowed his massage, a few fingers on the back of his neck moving faintly as he fixed his gray eyes on her. Behind the surgical mask, he smiled, and his eyes showed it. [color=silver][b]"I know,"[/b][/color] he responded firstly, his arms folding over his chest. [color=silver][b]"None of it made sense to me at the moment. Mr. Winchester's thoughts seem proactive on the safe usage of our Quirks though. The way he went about it was wrong but I get it now."[/b][/color]

	[color=silver][b]Y[/b][/color]usuke sighed with weight. [color=silver][b]"And Karen... Well Karen's really hard to read; I wasn't expecting her to blow like that... I was lucky to have you earlier, I'm not sure what would have happened without your note."[/b][/color] He raised it up with his mind; the crumpled piece of paper was folded into a fine, flat flower. Yusuke eyed it where it floated--with his dim prismatic light outlining it. [color=silver][b]"Thank you,"[/b][/color] he told her abruptly. 

	[color=silver][b]"It was a thank you, Diana. Also, I'm really starting to find that robotic way you talk adorable,"[/b][/color] he told her with a hidden smile behind his mask. He stood up out his chair and pulled out his own Uphone from his back pocket. [color=silver][b]"Should we walk together to the dorms?"[/b][/color] he asked her.
