Sorry for the long wait but i'm just too lazy and I was doing other things. I'm in no rush to update, but I had a chance and now here you go. *Hands you Chapter Two. Also this is a really short chapter because this is just some insight into her introvert-edness and what she looks like.
The worst thing about going outside was the crowd.
The millions of people walking and crowding around every inch of Tokyo bugged her to no end. They were never ending, never stopping, walking, talking machines that were programmed with their own schedules, times and dates. It was tiring.
Another thing was the stares. Oh god the stares. They never left her alone, watching, creeping and stalking her body movements, prejudice and judgment evident in the way they watched her.
She always stood out from the crowd. It's true everyone has something unique about them – whether it was clothes, hair, build, eyes and now counting body changes, as in this day and age it was completely normal, everyone had something different that made them stand out from the rest. But she stood out like a sore thumb. And she didn't like it.
With her pure white hair and scarlet tips coating the edges no one could miss her. The midnight eyes and vibrant red veins creeping down the right side of her face certainly didn't help either. Coupled with the fact that her skin was as pale as her hair, it looked like she had come fresh out of a bloody horror movie, prepared to murder people when the time was right and by the way things were going, what with all the stares she earned, it might not be that close off.
Did she mention the stares?
That's why Akari preferred to stay inside, away from prying eyes and judgmental looks. She opted to close her curtains and shy away. And it worked… for a while anyways.
Yet she needed to eat. The one thing bad about her quirk was that she needed to constantly inhale food. As her power simultaneously created and controlled one thing, it needed something to help it turn and keep in motion. And that thing just happened to be sugary, delectable, sugar-coated sweets.
It didn't help with the awful stares at all. It just made things worse. So much worse.
After taking and housing her, the family she lived with brought all her piles of goods with the seamlessly never-ending stash of money they had got. She was thankful. She didn't have to go outside or work to get money. The bad thing was when they were out she was left alone with Ri. Ri was helpful… when he wanted to be. But when he was stuck in his own mind, trying to think up new strategies to crush his opponents with, it didn't help at all. Especially when he would be trying those strategies out on their nightly matches against each other.
So, she went alone. Into the swarm of people that surrounded the city streets. It was pretty at this time of night and all the lights surrounding her seemed to heighten the aesthetic but with the bustling people everywhere it dampened her mood. Grabbing a mass amount of food she dropped it onto the counter and paid with the pocket money she earned from her 'parents'. Hauling the humungous bag of lollies she left the shop swiftly and started down the road back to the house filled with warm memories that weren't truly hers.
