Stein went over some basics with me. I didn't really know where about in the story line I ended up and I couldn't talk to Kid about it seeing as he didn't know I'm from another world. From what I could gather he said that they know about Medusa being a witch and that Crona was in the dungeons currently. Though Stein mentioned Maka was trying to get through to her. It made me sad when I heard about this; as it meant I didn't know much what happens next, my memory of the show isn't all that great. Stein explained to me what being a witch meant, and what it truly meant for their world. I got the feeling that he didn't hate witches as a group, only he begrudged those who irked him. We were sat in his home office drinking a cup of tea in comfortable silence. "Hey Stein?" I asked.

"Hm?" He answered, turning his head slightly.

"What will happen if I'm a witch or a kishin?" I asked; I couldn't meet his eyes though I felt his gaze on me.

"What's the likelihood of that happening Hannah?" He answered my question with one of his own.

"I didn't think something like this was likely to happen to me." I finally met his gaze. "Yet here I am. Do you really think any of the students or even some of the teachers will take well to me if that happens to be true?"

"Then I'll protect you." He said.

I couldn't figure him out. "Why? Why would you do that?" I asked.

He pushed his glasses further up his face. "There's not a lot I can figure out about your soul Hannah but I can tell it's not a dangerous one." He ruffled my hair causing me to smile. "Plus I like you."
