Steven Universe's Persona

Chalk (and intense rumors)

"Hi! Im Steven (Quartz Cutiepie) Demayo (Diamond Universe). I came from America. I hope we get along (without killing each other)"

Steven mumbled the other parts to himself. He didn't want weird looks from the students just by saying what he usually says. All the students began whispering to each other.
"Is he Japanese at all?" "I saw him talking with Ann, the second year, last week" "Are they dating?" "He seems short" "I wonder if he's smart" "2 transfers in 1 year?" "Is he wearing sandals?" "What did he just mumble"

During this, Steven noticed some students who were still bruised, but they joined in in the whispering. He noticed a red haired girl sitting in the back, who wasn't contributing much to the whispers.

"Quiet down please" The teacher said. "Steven, you're sitting next to Yoshizawa, in the empty desk." pointed to the red haired girl. She smiled as he passed and Steven politely smiled back.

The lectures were long but Steven managed to get the concept. He heard a few rumors about Ushimaru sensei's death chalk. Steven wasn't paying attention much, he threw the chalk at Steven. Steven's gem instincts kicked in immediately. He thought he might be under attack, and he caught the chalk. He was thankful that he didn't activate his shield instead.

"Whoa! No one catches the death chalk!" "This is like the other student on another level!" "Which one?" "The second year who dodged it" "Woah" "Are his eyes pink? I've never noticed that before"

Steven almost jumped at that last one. He just wanted to go to a regular human school without his powers involved. He calmed down and had a small headache for the rest of class.

Steven returned the chalk to Mr Ushimaru after the class and apologized. It is now lunchtime, and all the students were walking around in the halls. He heard some rumors about another transfer student, which he assumes is Akira. Someone approaches him.

"Hey, are you the new student in first year?"

Steven turns and sees a blue haired boy with fading bruises. He looked nervous but slightly excited about something. Maybe he just heard rumors.

"Yeah, I am. What do you need?"

The other boy slightly nodded "I just need to talk to you. Follow me."

Steven followed him into some storage closet.

"Are you one of the Phantom thieves?"

Steven looked at him very confused.

"I wish. They seem pretty cool, and i want to join them" Steven admitted. "Did you only hear about what I did in class? The teacher took it as a normal thing."

"Yeah! Akira in my class dodged the chalk! And, I thought with your ability, you might be a Phantom thief. But I guess it would make sense that you weren't. you weren't here when Kamoshida was here.

Okay... that seemed more relatively normal than Steven catching it. And, Steven suspects that Kamoshida was how the Phantom thieves started.

"So, you said you wanted to join the Phantom thieves?" The blue haired student said.

"You know the leader?"

"Yup! Do you promise to keep this a secret?"

"You can trust me." 'I have secrets of my own'

"Ok! I'm Mishima, by the way"
