Connor grasped Kijani's hands, gently, glad of her presence. As the tear fell, moved around, to pull her into a hug, taking comfort and hopefully giving it with the hug. There was no words to say. Connor thought he'd be prepared for anything. But there was no preparing for this, this act of...terrorism. This utter destruction of something worthwhile.

He'd already put into action helpong to find the rebuilding of the school, but the actual building would have to wait, for now.

"I love you, Kijani" he said softly, so soft, it was almost a whisper. It times like this, it was important to remember that, love. He was silent for a few moments, content for the moment, to just hold her.

"So many..." He hadn't eaten for hours, and sleep was but a distint memory, but he didn't even notice either human need, "so many, dead or hurt. I didn't see any sign of bruce, or Clark, and only five teachers, six if you can't Kagerou, have been found..." Speaking about it, only made it seem more real, and yet, more bearable. Slightly bearable.

"I love you too, Connor..." She rested against him, breathing in the fact that he was here and whole and alive, trying to hold that in. Trying to savor it before the memory that so many others, so many children were not, took the joy from her. "Kagerou's alive. That's great news." She exhaled slow, realizing that she hadn't even considered that she'd still been at the school. Kagerou had helped Kijani redefine herself, to discover who she wanted to be. She owed the woman more than she could ever repay.

"I haven't found anything concrete. No one is taking responsibility. No bragging, no gloating, not even a dangling-carrot hint. Whoever did this..." She shook her head, not wanting to admit it, but feeling that there was no other way. "We're dealing with pros, Connor. A well-organized, well-trained group. This was no random attack by someone unhinged. This is just the first shot in a battle." With that said, she tried to remember to breathe, and kissed Connor's palm. It was rough and calloused. Too much work.

"Have you eaten?" She pulled back, trying to put a bit of a smile on. "Wait, what am I saying. You're a Stark with work to be done, of course you haven't eaten. Come." She strode to a small corner of the room, where there was a small fridge (reading NO SAMPLES) and a flat stove. Inside were several easy to prepare meals, labeled in plastic bins. Basically all that needed to be done was to add some butter to a pan and dump the contents in for the appropriate time. "What do you want? Omelettes? Stir fry? Pancakes?"

Hm. So, they don't show powers until after they're exposed to this mist, then?

Small Town Roleplay (VileSnake & Mistress Dizzy)

Kijani came down when Leon's parents arrived. She introduced herself with politeness, even though she was secretly annoyed with their son's antisocial behavior. She was new in town, and Leon couldn't even be bothered to have a conversation? Even now, he didn't want to sit at the table with her... how immature!

"I must thank you again for opening your home to me. I truly appreciate your generosity and kindness." She shot Leon a brief look at the last word. "My papers for the school transfer all seem to be in order. Is there anything I can do for you to make my stay easier?"

State of Heroes and Villains

Kijani rolled the car up to Stark Industries, dialing in the password at the small, secret elevator at the side. It provided Connor- and her, by extension- quick access to the labs and computers. When Ingot asked for two more passwords and a retina scan, she knew Connor was home. After she got by, she went straight to the computer room. She could see him there, staring at the info she'd sent.

Even while seeing just the back of his head, she could see the exhaustion in the way he carried himself. Whatever was going on had barely begun, and she knew it would put a horrible wear on everyone. She had to be strong... but not too strong.

He'd taught her that.

She strode into the room and went to his side. Laying her hands over his, she held his hand. "...Connor." She wanted to say something, but realized that there really was nothing. A tear hit the back of their hands and she didn't realize it'd come from her.

"I'm here."

State of Heroes and Villains

Kijani felt like she'd been digging for hours. It had taken a lot of work, not to mention some questionable code-breaking. Thank goodness for Bruce Wayne. Kijani knew that he'd have his own separate source of information about the school. After calling in a few dozen favors, she'd gotten the access she needed. A student and parent list that she quickly put under several different firewalls and encryptions. Connor knew most of hers, and she sent the list directly to him. With that done, she told her agents that she would be unavailable for the next 24 hours, and to continue with what she'd given them.

Fifteen minutes had her on her way back home, to Stark Industries, and hopefully to Connor.
