“I’m not entirely sure. A hero, most likely.” Aramis said, looking down at her lap.

Felix shook his head again. If I am to be a hero, I could always use a companion. Then again, shifters don't usually have other shifters as companions…

"You know, just because you don't have a weapon or ability doesn't mean you can only be a companion."

Oof, night~!//

Athena spit out stray feathers that were still in his mouth, “I’m fine, but geez, ya gotta be more careful with those!” Athena remarked. He got up and frowned at his now soiled lollipop, tossing it into a nearby trash.

Bren hastily nodded. "I know, I know, I'm told that all the time. I'm sorry about your lollipop!"

Athena sighed and shook his head, “No problem,” Athena reached into his back pocket and pulled his last two lollipops out. He unwrapped One and stuck it into his mouth, stuffing the wrapper in his pocket, “What one?” he asked as he held the second one out, sticking his other hand into his pocket.

Bren smiled a little and accepted it. "Thank you! Sorry again." He unwrapped the candy treat then put it in his mouth.

Athena nodded, “No problem. So, what’s up?” Athena asked, deciding to have a conversation with this guy. Both hands were in his pockets now.

Bren shrugged. "Nothing much. You?" He asked kindly, not wanting to come across stand-offish.

“Well, I passed my first exam,” Athena grinned. He adjusted his lollipop’s position in his mouth.

Bren grinned. "Cool! What's your major… thing?"

“What… thing? There are many many different answers to that question,” Athena remarked.

"Well… your type. You know, what you study and take tests on?" Bren offered meekly.

“Ooooooooohhh!” Athena nodded in understanding, “That makes sense! Well, I’m an antagonist for a sci-fi adventure sorta thing, I dunno,” Athena shrugged, “What about you?”

"Fantasy, more of a supporting character." He tucked his wings into his back again. "I'm also taking some Adventure classes!"

(yeah i changed his type. fite me)

I-I’d… rather…. not…… fite…….. you……….//

“Nice! I don’t think I’ve seen you in any classes,” Athena mused.

(Good cuz… I wouldn't win. Clears throat)

Bren shrugged. "Maybe you haven't noticed?"

“With those huge things,” Athena indicated Bren’s wings, “I doubt I’d be able to miss you.”

Bren laughed gently. "Hey, what's your name, anyway? I'm Bren."

“Athena,” he smiled, “So, we should probably get away from the stairs so we aren’t nuisances to other people,” someone grumpily pushed himself in between the two, emphasizing Athena’s point.

"Right. How about we go outside?" Bren offered with a smile back.

"You know, just because you don't have a weapon or ability doesn't mean you can only be a companion."

”I know, I know. I’ve been told that a hundred times already but…” She shrugged and looked at Felix, “I’m not one to play the hero in a story, so companion it is. I’m not upset with the idea, don’t get me wrong, just… overthinking I guess, sorry.”

"Right. How about we go outside?" Bren offered with a smile back.

“Sure! Lead the way,” Athena smiled back.

"Right. How about we go outside?" Bren offered with a smile back.

“Sure! Lead the way,” Athena smiled back.

Bren nodded and led the way to the outside porch, where it overlooked the campus. It was quiet, sunny and pleasantly breezy.
