If her siblings heard him saying that, he'd be in for a rough time. The little dears were so silly sometimes. Well, that was neither here nor there. Suzue patiently waited for the others to express their concerns. Most were similar in nature, though a few made a few other good points. Alice seemed completely nonchalant about this whole thing, though. How cute. She might need someone to watch her if this was in fact, real on some level. The 'proof' that followed was enough for Suzue. The explanation over, Suzue walked over to the end of the table where the talismans were. Finding the one with her name on it, Suzue ran her hand over it and eyed it curiously. She could hear her heart beating in her chest nervously. If this was real, then that mean she'd likely end up fighting other things. That was not something she was extremely keen on doing. Still, with all the explanations given, she'd be remiss to turn this ability down. If she could even protect one person...well, then there was no need for hesitation. Flipping the talisman over, she read it. [i]"Jorōgumo are a type of shape changing Yokai that either takes the form of a beautiful woman or Joro spider. Most in folklore are malevolent by nature. Tricksters that use their cunning beauty to lure prey to feast on them. Folklore isn't entirely clear on their abilities, but what is known is that they can weave magical silk as strong as steel, communicate with magical fire-breathing spiders, and are sometimes associated with water as in the folktale of Joren Falls."[/i] Did that mean she was one? Was that what this meant, that her Mother was one? Or did she simply have that sort of ancestry in her. In either case that would explain a lot, really. Hm. Looking around at the others, it seemed they were already manifesting some of their abilities. Nova seemed to have created a small blue flame in her palm. Alice seemed to have control over the wind or some such, and Aiden seemed to have trouble lifting a simple talisman. Well, might as well join in on the fun!~ Grabbing a needle, Suzue pricked her pointed finger and quickly placed the drop of blood on the talisman before holding it to her chest. Closing her eyes, she focused on the talisman. It started making her skin crawl. The feeling of something crawling on her skin, up her legs and towards the talisman. An unpleasant sensation for some, she'd imagine but for some reason it felt oddly natural to her. Wasn't really any different from the times when she played with Muffin. The crawling was followed by a muffled, muted feeling, as though she was having trouble breathing. Like something was tightening around her chest and lungs. And in the next instant it was gone. Looking at her hands and the rest of her body, nothing seemed too out of the ordinary. Glancing at a few of the others again, she noticed them getting used to their new powers. Taking a look at her hands, she frowned slightly. Seemed like something should have - [color=8493ca]"Oh my..."[/color] Before she could say anything else, a small stream of silk liberally painted her face with the webbing like a certain unnamed american comic book character that shall remain unnamed. [color=8493ca]"Well this is...certainly interesting. I did not imagine when I came here today, this would be my activity."[/color] She giggled in a perhaps mildly suggestive manner, pulling the sticky white substance from her face. It didn't seem too useful at first glance, but if the threads were magical and as strong as steel, that could be very useful if she could practice with it.
