Reminds me of some competing assassin I've heard about recently...
(Speaking of which, I managed to convice one of my IRL friends to join he phansite and RP. Keep an eye out for him within this week. We're still working on his character though...)
*she shows it to him* It's a picture of my uncle, moms and dad's old team, Team STRQ (Stark). There's Tai, my dad, uncle Qrow, my biological mom, Raven, and.... *she looks down* my stepmother, Summer Rose...
She... She died on a hunt... She left one day and never came back. Once we got the word she passed away, dad just....shut down. Summer was like a supermom.. I still remember the taste of her cookies...
It's fine... *she leans into Shiza* She left behind her legacy, after all. My little sis, Ruby. She's the splitting image of Summer... Hell, the Crescent Rose I made you is Ruby's original design. *she smirks* My sis is quite the weapon smith, no?
Yeah. Then apply it when doing weapon crafting for a hundred years. You get the hang of it.
*in a flick of his wrist the spear head breaks over and sees a barrel extends out*
I can see you though. Like in that one manga... With the girl with the sixth sense...
Lonely? ...It's always like that... I don't really know how to make connections with others... And you could say I'm new. I only recently found out that this world isn't my own...
*Waves at Bona* unfortunately, I don't think animals like me...
I-If you say so... *Rom spots a grey kitten, sporting some almost aqua-colored strands of fur and picks it up from the box, smiling warmly at it* H-Hello!
*Notices Setsuna*
Believe me, I know how you feel...
You all? My friends? If you really want to be... I don't think I make a really good friend... But I don't wanna be mean... Thank you, everyone. *Smiles*
And, I have no siblings... Plus, he's a foreigner and I'm Japanese...
*she nods at Hisato* Yeah. Dad and uncle Qrow would always tell me and Ruby stories about the great escapades of Team STRQ. *she looks at the kittens* Eh... Sure. *she picks up a black cat* Hey there, kitty!
They almost seem too good to be true, really... *Looks away from Rom sadly*
*Looking at Hunter* I see... Then... I'll try it!
*She carefully, with determination, tastes the pasta*
*a live footage of Spectre, Ruin, and Reaper is seen on the T.V.*
Spectre: So this is test twenty eight of trying to figure out of what is the witch... but SOMEONE blew up the test silo!
*shows the witch in the jar*
Ruin: Oh come on it was one Gravity Spike!
Reaper: Hypothesis: Ruin is 100% dumbass and 0% Brain Cells.
Spectre: Near a tank of napalm that Firebreak concocted!
Not strange... Just unremarkable, right? You're all so otherworldly compared to me... *Blushes as Hisato pets her*
*Glancing at Rom* I see... I don't mean to be a bother... I'm the awkward one if anything
Spectre: Alright you two. Once I open the jar move out of the way.
Ruin: Alright.
Reaper: Affirmitive.
*Spectre opens the jar and witch with butterfly wings and a rose bush for a head starts to grow uncontrollably*
Ruin: KILL IT BEFORE IT MULTIPLY!!!
*Ruin jumps in and used his Gravity Spikes and explosions starts to go off*
Spectre: RUIN YOU ABSOLUTE JACKASS!!!
Reaper: Tests are ruined by Ruin. Detected high levels of irony.
*and then t.v. goes into this*

*Rom gives Setsuna a warm apologetic smile* Really, it's okay... *takes a deep breath* I can sympathize. I was just like that when I first came here, and everyone here helped me branch out... in one way or another. Oh! Um... Sorry if I came on too strong...
*Walks in and has to physically resist the urge to immediately leave.*
No, wandering the streets is gonna hurt your feet, you're going to sit down for at least five minutes in this.... "wonderful" establishment.
Well... All my life I've kinda gone through the motions. And when I realized where I was, I realized... I don't have anything. I'm nothing. Nothing at all...
I want to find that thing to make me whole... If possible.
And... The pasta is surprisingly delicious. It's like a thick spaghetti sauce...
Oh, then I don't think we've met.
And how've I been.... well.... pretty bad. Yu stabbed me in the leg, then metaphorically backstabbed me, a demon has been bugging me about taxes, I apparently can open holes in reality, and I'm concerned something weird has happened to the collective unconsciousness.
Sometimes... I have this dream about a prince with a cat tail saving me from a tower...
But... That's probably silly... *Blushes* I wonder if that has something to do with it though...
Migrant, or at least that's what I'm called.
Actually I heard something about a bridge that grants wishes earlier, but I couldn't find it when I went looking for it. Oh well, I was gonna ask it for details on myself.
Yeah, no. Politician types are officially on my nerves. Him, those Dietmen, Tim.
We got by just fine without a strong government. And now that we have one, NOW everyone is trying to take over it.
Oh, yeah. Two of them. They've been giving speeches about how Tim is illegitimate and a criminal and stuff.
Just typical political types, not letting a crisis go to waste. Meanwhile we're the ones trying to keep Shaigis safe and are the ones feeling like this place maybe isn't worth saving another time.
Well Shaigis is kinda.... important. And, well, there's only so many times you can defend this place, and so many new threats that can appear, before you start to feel like maybe a fresh start is needed...
Well... Blending in isn't always the most important thing... What should be important is what we think of ourselves. Besides, there's nothing wrong in doing an effort to improve yourself... Even if you still may be "weak", it shows you're at least trying... Why do you feel this way?
*she removes the cherry stem from her mouth, now in a knot* I'd recommend vacationing in Remnant, but I don't really wanna risk a breach in Vale while you're there, Mig..
Actually, a vacation sounds great. Maybe I can take Yuki, and Shaigis... both of her, and Joker, and Maria and Ami along.
Hmm, where though. Maybe someplace quiet and green, unlike the Nexus.
No, I'd probably never want to come back then.
*she smiles at Mig* That's good. Though, Joker'd probably freak out at my current condition, because... *she removes her jacket, revealing her right arm replaced with a robotic one*
*she sighs* It's a long story, Migrant... A while back, when Vale was invaded by Grimm, I was caught in a scuffle with the leader of the White Fang... He sliced my right arm from right above my elbow clean off. When I came here, it was like it never happened, but my past caught up to me and I lost it for the second time...
Well sure, we can go elsewhere, it's a great skill.
Maybe I'm just thinking excessively negative again. But I can't shake the feeling we haven't seen the last of Buff Boy, and that Yu is a bigger threat than we realize...
pat: *points to an area of the newspaper and right there it says "a whole gang and a greedy Politic who was the leader of it has been killed, people say that it was the vigilante"*
I get how you feel, Iggy. When I lost my arm, I was met with looks of pity and people saying "It's not that bad." Made me feel like shit... And you mean Toby, right Pat?
