"I don't have any 'quirks' you speak of. I am, however, in contact with a society of supernatural beings." Jane hadn't known what a quirk was until this person had explained it. "I know of some people with powers, but it's not exactly what I would consider usual- at least- it's unusual for someone to discover that they have any sort of talent in order to develop and use it."
We are who we are, and if someone has a problem with that; that's their problem not ours. *** I do believe that insane is the only way to go.
His eyes widen in surprise. "Wh-ho-n-no! No! Why would I be after your soul?!"
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost."
He seems confused. "I don't know what you're talking about, miss..."
((This is what I get for using stock names ;-;))
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost."
She sighed and crossed her arms. "Okay, fine, whatever. As long as you don't come trying to enslave me later." She turned to Kyou. "I guess since none of us seem to be entirely normal as I've learned before, it's safe to admit that I'm not a human. So maybe your 'Quirk' thing doesn't apply to me."

He looked from face to face in an attempt to see if either Jane or Lily were lying, but both seemed to honestly believe what they were saying. It was impossible, wasn't it? There couldn't be something other than humans. That was the stuff of anime and books. Not what you would find in real life! Quirks made sense. What they were saying didn't.
Then again, he realized, Quirks haven't always been normal. They used to only be in comic books, but here I am with mine. So maybe it is possible for things like this to exist?
"I'm new to this whole not human thing," he admitted. "So what exactly are all of you, and do you guys actually have any powers? I know Jane doesn't."
"I'm human," Cornyx lies, though he's pretended to be one for so long it's become. "No powers, just a normal human."
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost."
"You don't exactly smell like a human," commented Li He, still a little unconvinced that he wasn't the Cornyx she'd met before. "I'm a huli jing, or Chinese nine-tailed fox. The Japanese regional variety would be called kitsune. Just . . . don't call me a kitsune, please. So anyways, I can shapeshift. Comes in handy sometimes."

Was that even possible? What was this place? Who were these people? What were these people?
For that matter, what was he? Too many questions, not enough answers.

Jane's ears pricked as she heard a howl. "Thomas!" She grinned, taking off running. Her heels clicked the floor as she ran, but didn't seem to hinder her speed. She was used to running in heels. A large wolf was sitting in a large room near the back door- growling at anything that got close, and snapping at anything that moved.

He was essentially powerless. His weapons and gear were back in his bedroom, and the only thing useful thing he had on him was his knife. That howl sound eerily unnatural. If he had to fight its owner, he was done for. But a hero never left someone unprotected, and he didn't like the idea of leaving the equally powerless Jane on her own. He rushed after her.
When he finally caught up to her, he found the source of the howl. There was an unnaturally large wolf sitting near what seemed to be the back door. He tensed, and his hand went for his knife.
Li He hurried after Kyou and stopped short at the sight of the wolf. She wondered what his reaction would be if she turned into a fox. He smelled of hostility, perhaps, but she was probably way older than him. Though.... what did that have to do with anything?

Jane smiled. "My best friend. Well, best living one anyway." Her eyes darted to him going for his knife. "Don't threaten him, I can handle it. He may not look like it, but he trusts me. If you're the one that takes him out, he'll have a heart-attack." Jane was genuinely concerned for her friend, and it showed. She slowly bent down and began to remove one of her shoes.

Cornyx remains in the background, still trying to figure out what's going on. Are these people like him? But then, what about this 'quirk' thing? He said everyone knew about it, but...no one did. How did that work? Unless...no, no that was impossible.
