If there's one thing that being relentlessly teased by a boy, in your foreign transfer school where you aren't fluent in the language for nearly two months; then it's the fact that you get good at the language really, really quickly. My confidence had increased immensely as I was becoming more proficient in the Japanese language, plus my skills as a sorcerer were getting better and better every day. I still hadn't mastered my domain yet though; which Gojo gave me a stupid amount of grief about, because I've only ever managed to create an incomplete domain once before years ago and it really took it out of me. I haven't been able to manifest it since, probably because I've never actually had that much practice or been in enough danger to force myself to do it. Whatever, Gojo found out somehow and he's done nothing but mock me since.

On the plus side, after having a DNA test and with Janey's research and help from some of the managers and supervisors from the Tokyo School; it turned out that I'm a very, very, very distant relative of one of Japan's three Great Vengeful Spirits; Taira no Masakado. Janey had told me that from her research, there was every possibility that my curse technique could be inherited, now that we knew of my descent. In saying that, there was also every possibility that this was all me. At least if it was inherited, there may have been some records from long ago about what hell my technique was all about. So, I wasn't any closer in figuring out if my technique was all mine, or inherited. Yay, go me!

I had gotten close with all the other students here. I hung out with Shoko a lot and Nanami, who I had some really interesting grown up conversations with. Seriously, he was younger than me but his grasp on things like finance, world politics and news and even culture absolutely baffled me. Then there was Haibara who I just had a laugh with, we both liked food and we were always sharing food and recipes with each other. He was super positive and just, generally nice to be around.

I was friends with Suguru, to some extent and that's mainly because he was usually with Gojo most of the time. I trained martial arts with Suguru occasionally as he was a great sparring partner and he properly kept me on my toes, I did have the occasional distraction from Gojo however as he could not keep his mouth shut. The amount of times he would come out with some smart arse remark when I was sparring with Suguru was unreal, so I would just grab the nearest thing I could throw at him to get him to shut up. But of course, nothing ever landed because of his stupid Infinity technique. He mocked me and teased me about a lot of things, like my spacing out and my occasional bouts of sleepwalking, which was… embarrassing. Especially as nobody else seemed to know about it, like Gojo was keeping that to himself.

The one thing I was better at than Gojo was video games. Sometimes after school, all of us would head in to the city and go to the arcade for a bit. One arcade that we usually went in to had a bunch of fighting games, Tekken 5 in particular. And Gojo was terrible at it against me. I thought it was hilarious. He annoyed the hell out of me most of the time, but because I was so much better at understanding and speaking Japanese now; I was able to retort back to his constant teasing to the level of having actual banter with him. He was speaking more English with me though which I thought was odd and he seemed to learn it a lot quicker than I could Japanese.

The new girl Gigi had been here at the school for almost two months now. She was gradually getting stronger, this I could gather just by watching her. Her speed, overall strength and technique had massively improved since she had arrived, but it still didn't make the fact that I couldn't read her at all with my six eyes any better. That was still infuriating me, more than anything else and even though I could sense her cursed energy when she actively used it; my six eyes got nothing. It was pissing me off still. At least now because she had learned more Japanese, she was better at conversing and could fight back with me whenever I teased her. I would switch it up a bit too, I had started learning more English and I got quite good. I'd start talking to her in my near perfect English which always caught her off guard and threw her off her train of thought. I found it funny doing that.

The new girl had been given a grade though; Grade 1 seeing as she was studying at the school. If she was able to to form and perfect her domain expansion then maybe she could even be special grade, but I had found out that she had only ever managed to form an incomplete domain only once before and it ruined her for a week. She couldn't even describe what it was like or what she did, like she had spaced out when it happened or something. And that was another thing she constantly did; space out. It was kinda cute actually, she was always glassy eyed and confused looking whenever she came to.

And she was a sleep walker too. There has been a few nights when I got back to the school late for whatever reason, I dunno like a date or something. I was creeping back in to the dorms only to find Gigi hovering around the hallways; stood in her pyjamas which were just a long shirt and her underwear and funnily enough, one slipper that looked like an otter. She was completely unreactive, her eyes even deader than when she usually spaced out save for a few tears that had escaped. She eventually went back to her room, loosing her one otter slipper on the way.

The day after, I took the otter slipper back to her. She looked mortified.

'Where did you get this?' She asked me.

'Oh just on my travels.' I said, waving the slipper in front of her. 'I never had you down as a cutesy slipper kinda girl.' She tried grabbing it out of my hand but I held it up higher out of her reach. I leaned against her door dangling the slipper over her as she tried to grab it still. She gave up and pouted at me.

'Gojo, just give it me back. Please.' She looked a little defeated now.

'Maybe. If you tell me what the tears were for, then I might give it you back.'

I wish I hadn't have said that. Her pout turned in to a full on frown and she just shut the door on me. I left the slipper outside her room then. Out of all the dumb little practical jokes and teasing I had done to her, that one was not my finest moment. And just after Suguru kept telling me I was being super childish and I should just ask her out already. Yeah like she'd agree to a date with me after all the teasing. I told Suguru that wasn't gonna happen and that I was already inundated with girls numbers anyway

The day after that however, she didn't show up for any classes. I remembered that I had heard the new supervisor Jane that came with the new girl, earlier that morning chatting with Shoko about Gigi. Something about the anniversary of her mothers death.
