It was official. Yasu didn't like Mari. Unless by some miracle Kai had carefully explained his exact reasons for being late before Yasu had arrived, then she had a feeling Mari didn't actually know why Kai hadn't been here earlier. She had jumped to a conclusion, and now she was judging him for it. Yasu didn't even know why it would be any of Mari's business, but there she was, making comments about it. Now Yasu was wondering if she was going to be like this about every little thing they said. She had no idea if that was the case, but goodness only knew that if she had all these quips to make over something trivial and unimportant on her own part, she wasn't going to like it. Had it not been for the fact that Kai barely seemed to care about it, Yasu might have been tempted to make something of it right now.

The fact that Kai knew very little about his own quirk came as a slight surprise to Yasu. She had assumed these doctors knew what they were talking about with quirks after all this time. It didn't matter in the end. It made it impossible to gauge how these arm thingies would react to certain situations, but that was hardly all that important to her. Predictably, Kai showed a similar excitement for her quirk as he did for Mari's. She had a feeling he was just like that, showing enthusiasm for everything around him. She didn't take his praise very seriously, given that, but it was at least a more pleasant reaction than being told her quirk was shit. That, or having a certain someone make judgmental comments the whole time.

The teacher's finally ushered them into the final preparations for their task. Yasu wasn't really concerned with the details. Not that she wasn't paying attention, but it really didn't matter to her whether there was only one family total or a bunch of them for each team to rescue. All that mattered to her was getting it done. [color=0076a3]"Not really."[/color] She told Kai when asked about the competition. 

For some baffling reason, Mari appeared annoyed at the fact that the activity was structured differently than she imagined. It meant nothing to Yasu, as she could care less if they co-operated with other teams or if the others were done before them. All they had to do was see this through to the end and do what was expected of them. If Mari was going to get all pushy with her about it, then they were going to have a real big problem.

[color=0076a3]"Do you guys think it's worth a shot for me to climb into the trees? Because I can do that."[/color] She asked them. Climbing was easy, she'd been doing it all the time since the orphanage. She imagined there would be some advantage in being able to scout from a high vantage point, but she couldn't be sure it would help. Nor could she be sure there were enough trees to justify her moving around from treetop to treetop on their specific route, and it would be exhausting to climb trees all up and down the trail for no certain gain. But the offer was out there, and she was willing to at least give it a try. Otherwise, she was ready to get going when the others were.

[hider=tl;dr]
Yasu doesn't like Mari, but she doesn't mind Kai. She offers to help the team by scouting from treetops if they think that would help.
