Mina's not going to become Ty Lee or Kenshiro during this rp, no.

To her, pressure points will just be something to do after somebody's distracted by, say, a bright flash of light to the eyes. She'll take her time to carefully give them a dead limb or make them piss themselves after a blinding flash, and she probably has the fight in the bag with just her self-defence, then, or any other fighting skills she has from the Eastern Martial Arts class.

Mina had been expecting the resulting spiel about eastern martial arts about being more than just combat. That was why she wanted to learn it. She was hardly the strongest, fastest, fittest or more athletic student around, but she had drive, and she had discipline, and she had the time and patience to learn something properly no matter how long it took. This seemed like a perfect fit for her.

It was the practical demonstration that caught her out, though. By only pressing two pressure points, Meilin had completely disabled her arm, and by pressing one more, it had healed. Her eyes grew wide. Suddenly, getting top marks in all competitive classes felt very achievable. Of course, first she'd have to take a few lessons of this and gauge if she could get top marks in this one also. What she had just witnessed today was not physical power. It was not Channelling. It was weaponized knowledge, and it was exactly the compliment her power needed.

She stopped this train of thought, and repressed it. She forgot she was standing so close to Daler. She'd have to be careful...

@pkken

Mina's eye was caught by a new, fashionably late student arriving, and also sharply dressed. Could he too be from a rich family? She didn't recognize him, so he wasn't from her social circles. He was very open about only being here to learn more about his powers and nothing else. At least he wouldn't be another academic rival for her.

@13org

Nice!

Also, should I post? I always like to leave a two post buffer, even if there's no rule.

Jesus, when 13org replies, Mina is definitely interacting with Roy, lol. They have so much in common.

Mako put her fingertips to her mouth and chuckled. Even she wasn't as open and honest about her perverse entertainment from watching students bury their own graves, as Dr. Maxwell was about putting his Channelling research over the students' well-being.

"I'm all for ignoring the moral and responsible standpoints that we teachers are supposed to have in favour of our own suspect agendas. Trust me, I'm with you. But when they're about to kill each other, that's when the fun stops, and that's when it's time to break it up. Speaking of suspect agendas, I'm going to get more enjoyment out of this than I should..."

Mako then placed her hand on the corner of the chair where Shin was sitting, and leaned in. She opened her eyes, and her smile became a toothed grin and with that gesture, started to use her power. She suddenly felt like she was taking up twice as much of the small room as she actually was, and those teeth were still looking like teeth, but they were starting to feel like fangs.

"You should really stop coming in to rooms you're not permitted to be in. I won't stop you, but I might be inclined to tell somebody who will~"

Just say Taleste's in her room, and then later you can give her the tour. There's not much I can do in a post of Taleste walking into the ship and to her room, besides her looking and examining the ship, which I don't know the details of and might get wrong if I wing it.

Meilin had thrown Mina a curveball. If she goes too far in one direction, she'd come across as a sycophant. Too far in the other would make it seem like she doesn't really care. The best thing here would be to focus one of aspect of the actual truth and expand upon it, and that she did.

"I'm a wavecaster, and my power is control over light. This natually, doesn't have very many combat applications by itself, which is why I also need to learn how to fight. I have some basic self-defence MMA training but that's not really enough to keep up with people with super speed and strength, or the power to shoot flames from their hands."

As she spoke, memories of last year's Tournament flashed in her mind. She lost the first round to a fire wavecaster who went on to lose in the semi-finals and then graduated at the end of the year. This year, things would be different. If she could get competent in eastern martial arts, she'd stand a much better chance of winning, or at least getting far enough to bump her grade to top marks.

@Western Robot

Mako opened the door, and her grin grew when she recognised Dr. Maxwell, her superior in a certain regard. This was getting better and better. She'd start off on a subject that wasn't him being where he shouldn't be for now, just to lull him into a false sense of security.

"Goodness, the first years this year sure are an entertaining bunch to watch, aren't they? Not just their powers, but their behaviour and attitudes."
