A somewhat confused look spread over Cat's face as she knelt upon the table, watching Yuna as she spoke of a dojin room while checking out her DS. Her eyes widened as the girl reached up to brush over her head, which felt rather nice, and brought a smile to her lips until Yuna's fingers brushed against the lump, sending a sharp pain through it, and once again this subject of her skipping class was brought up again. No wonder Maria seemed annoyed at her. "Oww... ", she winced, and reached up to poke the lump with her own fingers. "Don't you start... I wasn't feeling well, I had to get out there... I only left five minutes early, but Maria thinks it's worth a punishment. She's thinking one up right now. And I didn't bang my head on the desk. I must have hit my head when... practicing". After drawing a deep breath, she bit her bottom lip, gazing down at this girl she'd only met five minutes ago, but already felt so attached to.
"Actually... that's kinda part of what I wanted to talk to you about. I read this comic... and these five super heroes had their minds messed with, to make them think they were just normal high school girls. One was a Cheerleader, one a Prom Queen, there was the Emo girl, you know, all the usual suspects... ", she explained in a hushed voice, and then leaned forward, her bottom pushing out behind her as she moved her face closer to Yuna's, "What if that has happened to me? Well, apart from the high school bit", she said in a slightly nervous tone, knowing that after feeling the lump on her head, there was every chance Yuna was going to think her delusional, but there was so much going on in her head, and she felt that if she didn't talk to someone about it, wether they believed her or not, then she really would go insane.
"I know it sounds crazy, but I have a really strong feeling about this... I'll show you the comics. I mean, look at me. I'm a total dork, like Spider-Man.. and... ", she glanced at the school badge on Yuna's jacket, poking her finger at it, and then pointed at the ridiculously expensive purse she had, ".. really rich family, like Batman and Iron Man, and there's a character in Young Avengers who's got no powers, and she's got a rich Dad that sends her to this really prestigious school... sound familiar? She even wears a uniform like you". She smiled at Yuna. It felt good to be able to openly talk about her nerdy hobby without worrying about ruining her reputation. "And Cassie Lang joined the Young Avengers when she was fourteen, so it's not like I'm too young", she murmured, blue eyes glancing down at the skinny body inside the white dress, still not even sure just how young she'd ended up.
Her shoulders slumped a little when Yuna said she was going to be busy for dinner, but she nodded her head in understanding. Nudging her glasses against her nose, she looked over Yuna's school uniform. She didn't understand why she didn't have one too, but she sure was thankful that she didn't. She felt childish enough without being stuck in uniform too. Shifting her weight, she tugged her legs out from beneath her, and pushed them forward to dangle over the edge of the desk as she sat facing Yuna. "I think I'm supposed to become a super hero... just like in the comics", she explained, blushing and mumbling slightly, poking at her phone in confusion as it sat there between them. "You don't have to believe me, but I could really use your help... ". She winced. Her heart was racing and her stomach felt unstable from all the nerves as she risked making one of the only friends she had think she'd gone cuckoo.
