Behind Elly, a [url=https://i.imgur.com/CZz35Jz.jpg]boy[/url] in [url=https://i.imgur.com/s94MTHy.jpg]simple blue and black waterproofs[/url] sneaked up. A mischievous smile crept across his face as wisps of water vapour from the air gathered by the back of her head, forming a tiny cloud. Probably not the best way to introduce himself to a new teammate, but he couldn't resist. The cloud shrank to nothing as a flurry of snow whirled from it, down the back of the girl's neck.

[color=03fcd3]“Hieeeeee!”[/color]

She recoiled immediately with that shocked squeal, taking several awkward steps forward. Her previously crossed arms flailed for a second to keep her balance, before moving to wipe at her neck as she turned around to figure out what had happened.

Cheeks warm from the embarrassment brought on by the noise she had made, Elly glanced between the boy who had been several feet behind her and her slush covered hand. She took another moment to blink in confusion. Her other hand moved to wipe away the rest of the melting snow that clung to her skin. As she did, she made eye contact with the boy.

[color=03fcd3]“You?”[/color] was all she could think to say, still unsure of what had happened.

The boy gave a goofy grin. [color=a7bfcd]"Surprise tactics, can't beat them huh?"[/color] Strolling closer to his group, he recalled the team seven announcements. [color=a7bfcd]"You must be Eleanor. I'm Leith, and hey, you needed to know about my Quirk, so that was a little demonstration. With the water in the air, I can create and control clouds for weather effects. Snow of course, and hailstones for battle. Rain too, but..."[/color] He shrugged. [color=a7bfcd]"That's mostly something I do for fire rescue training. Unless we're up against a fire user, I'm not sure how much use that'll be in a fight."[/color]

He gestured towards his teammate, a quiet blonde clad in blue, crystal-like armour. [color=a7bfcd]"And this is Clara. If anything I do goes out of control, she can keep us safe and dry."[/color] He paused, hoping the two timid girls would take it as their cue to get talking.

Elly felt her eye twitch in aggravation at the admittance of the prank, the embarrassment being replaced with annoyance.

[color=03fcd3]“Watch.”[/color] It was an order.

She turned to show her wet neck. A moment later, the water disappeared into her skin. With a frown and a furrowed brow, she looked back to Leith. Her arm raised up to shoulder height, hand forming a finger gun pointed square at the boy. A breath later, she brought down her ‘hammer’ thumb for effect, and a short stream of water was ejected from the tip of her finger, aimed at his forehead.

As the jet struck, Leith pulled back, blinking, wiping the water from his face. A second later, he laughed. [color=a7bfcd]"Ok, I guess we're even now."[/color] He looked at his damp hand, then at Elly, eyebrows raised. It was clear, now, why they'd been asked to work together. [color=a7bfcd]"You absorb and shoot water? Looks like drizzly weather is in the forecast after all, in that case. Anything else we'll need to know about your Quirk?"[/color]

Clara had walked over to them just as Leith introduced her. Her right fist over her mouth as she was so nervous speaking with new people. She wanted to warn Eleanor before Leith pranked her but it was too late. Leith pranked everyone he knew...including her. Her face red with embarrassment of a soaked head in class a few weeks prior. 

She was surprised at the unique pairing the two had, and disheartened to hear that Leith was going to make it drizzly. She loved the rain and all but not when she would be soaked in front of others... "I...um... I can control all types of glass." She said as she touched the crystal-like armor that was actually glass as it seemed to melt at her touch and move around her neck and reformed into a more watertight seal around her neck. "I-i-it can harden too, strong enough to stop bullets or larger impacts. But my body is fragile because of it..." She said timidly. Her face growing even redder as if the fact she was so weak was a bad thing.

Elly nodded, turning her attention to answering Leith. [color=03fcd3]“As long as you’re with me, your rain is going to be your favourite tool,”[/color] she said to him, wearing her confidence with a smirk. 

She raised her hand again, turning it to water this time. It held the shape of her hand for a second before she let go, causing the water to splash to the ground, leaving her with half a forearm. To demonstrate further, a small point at the center of her torso changed as well, growing outwards until the hole of water was about a foot wide and all the way through her chest.

The water on the ground floated back up into the air to first form a small cube, and then a ring. Finally, it began to whirlpool back to Elly’s stump, gradually reforming her arm. As the process finished with her fingertips, she stretched her hand out and balled it into a fist a couple of times to show it was functioning. The hole in her chest vanished as well. That show should adequately explain the first part of her quirk. As for the second...

[color=03fcd3]“I can control any water that’s part of my ‘system’--I have a base amount that makes up my body, and any outside water I come into contact with I can absorb temporarily. That extra water makes me stronger. Like adding muscle mass.”[/color]	

Seemed like that was the team, then. Elly didn’t really have any thoughts on their overall strength—she didn’t know what to expect from the students here, and as such couldn't compare them to the average. Despite the outside bravado she carried herself with, she was—as usual—anxious enough that her heart was pounding and her stomach was doing flips. Keeping up the front was the only thing that helped at all with that.

The girl glanced between her two teammates. [color=03fcd3]“I’m sort of being thrown into this, to be honest. It’s my first day here.”[/color] She crossed her arms, her smirk showing a hint of bemused exasperation. [color=03fcd3]“Not that I’m complaining, mind. I’ll douse this trial by fire with you two.”[/color]

Elly took a step towards them, reaching her hand out to Clara first for the girl to shake it, though still addressed them both. Her smile grew friendlier, but the determination displayed by the rest of her expression remained.

[color=03fcd3]“I’ve got something to prove today. So I’ll make sure we win, and then later you two can show me around a bit as thanks.”[/color]
