So has anyone noticed the several shameless references yet?
Post as you will peoples.
And I introduce plot progression.
Eventually a form of agreement to go see the other Gamer would be reached, a few in the party possibly being more reluctant than the others. So with that they all headed off to the train station, making it just in time thankfully as they managed to catch a train to the Port Island District, which was the only way to get to Gekkoukan Gakuen, where according to Jin they would be able to meet the other Gamer. It would take a bit of walking, Rainer probably knowing the way more than the others since Gekkoukan would be the highschool he went to if he attended school regularly (Ill leave that knowledge up to you Dingo), but soon enough they would reach it at about 1:00 PM.

Luckily there were still students there, some chatting, others heading to clubs, and others probably heading to the library. They all had the same floating names above their head, most of them reading their names with Lv 1 next to them. Above their names and levels read <Student>, which could imply that things like <Student> or <Gamer> or even <Messenger of Gaia> meant a person's class, at least to Sasha anyway who managed to view her windows and discover that her class was <Gamer>. To the others it would probably be unclear what those tags were exactly.

As they entered the front gates though suddenly, once again, the surroundings of the area seemed to fade. No lights were on, although it was still light out thanks to it being day time, and no people were around. No people like before back at the mall. There were no monsters in sight though and instead there was just one person. Off to the side of the path that lead up to the front of the impressive looking school was a boy wearing the male school uniform for Gekkoukan Gakuen sitting under a tree, playing a PFP. Above his head it read Ren Hitori Lv. 9. Above that read <Gamer>.

This could imply that this person was the other Gamer that the Messenger of Gaia was talking about, especially since this person was Level 9. Upon seeing this person a window suddenly appeared in front of each Gamer, each Gamer only able to see their own window that appeared for them. The window read the following.



This other Gamer might have seen it as well as he seemed to look at the air in front of him for a moment and tap the air, as if pressing a button, probably the button meant to close the new window that appeared. He then stood up and walked over to them, stopping about five yards away from the group. He was indeed quite a strange looking boy upon getting to look at him from this distance. Different colored eyes, white hair, and a somewhat soft looking face as well as somewhat pale skin. "So there really are other Gamers after all...just like myself. And here I thought that I was the only one".

As he spoke his voice was very quiet and distant. As he talked though it seemed like he wasn't speaking to him, but instead speaking quietly to himself. The boy's different colored eyes gazed at the group, reading each of their tags above their heads. "All Level 1. Im guessing you all must have gotten this power recently or have had it for a while and don't know how to Level Up". Now it did seem like the boy was talking to them, although somewhat apathetically, as if he really didn't care for their company too much and was only speaking to them out of necessity. "So, how did you all know I was here?"
By the way, for reference, here are the school uniforms for the school you guys are going to check out.

Alright, since most now support plot progression, I shall now make a plot moving post.
Alright.
But again, everyone thinks differently. Oner simply said that last bit about her power to simply say that if you are going to insult someone, make sure that you also aren't insulting yourself first. It can be seen as looking down, but Oner was by no means doing so.
I don't see how Oner was talking down to them. He was just trying to give them some advice. Maybe him telling Satoko that by criticizing Ascot's power was criticizing her own may have been down talking, but at the same time it wasn't. It was just him making a statement.

Plus if you really think about it, a power that lets you control others is taking all of the power from someone else's body. In a sense you are taking their body's power of the freedom of movement and using that to move them. While it may not be that in a literal sense, being able to control someone's body is pretty much what that is and that was the point that Oner was making.

Of course, Oner doesn't view it as down talking but giving advice. He would still apologize if his words offended them, as he meant no offense, but knows that people have different views on things. So while he could understand how his words could be seen as talking down, he knows that they were not.

Its all about what one means after all.
If no one posts by tomorrow morning I will go ahead and post to move the plot along.
