"Weber? I've heard of your father. He came to talk to my group when I was in Hitler Youth." it was true, Asja had been in Hitler Youth and had attended Commander Weber's talk.

Well, there goes his brand new reputation that he was shooting for. Benjamin didn't know why he expected her to not know his father. He nodded. "You were in Hitler Youth?"

"Yes, I was put in when I was young. Are you in Hitler Youth?" Marya explained, racking her brain for Asja's file.

(If you haven't realized it already, Asja is Felix's twin sister)

"I kind of have to be with my father's position." Benjamin explained.

"Ah, of course. My father was in the army, but he was discharged around Christmas when his arm got blown off during an air raid." Marya smiled, acting the part, "The house was full of laughter that Christmas."

Laughter…that doesn't seem like something to laugh about. Benjamin chuckled along, trying to act like he felt the same way. "Yeah that's a good one…"

"Oh no, his arm being blown off wasn't funny, we were just happy that he came home." Marya did her best to make sure her face was happy.

"Oh good. I thought…well nothing." Benjamin shrugged it off.

"What's your strength?" Marya asked, leaning back in her seat and wishing that she'd taken the identity of an introvert.

"Oh I…I'm not sure I should say." Benjamin responded, not wanting to admit that he could barely do anything.

"Secrecy? How classic." Marya snorted, puffing away a lock of dirty blond hair.

Classic? Does that mean I'm doing the right thing? Benjamin nodded stiffly. "What about you?"

"You'll find out soon enough." Marya smiled and pulled out her small knife.

Benjamin gulped, facing ahead once more as he tried to hide his fear. This is it. This is how I die. I should get started on my will. He took out his notebook and pencil from his boot, flipping to the next blank page.

She filed her fingernails, smiling at the boy's obvious fear. What was he writing? Marya leaned in, trying to catch a glimpse.
"What are you writing?"

Benjamin shut the notebook quickly. "Nothing. Mind your own business." He wasn't really writing his will, but rather doodling concept art for a book idea he had.

"Oof, okay." Marya smiled and opened the window on her side.

Benjamin reopened his notebook, tapping his pencil against the edge while he tried to think of what the character would look like. He sighed, deciding to base the character's look off of Asja.

Not talking was good. In fact, it was one of Marya's many skills.
