~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Early that morning, Mia was walking to class. She turned the corner, someone down the hallway felt familiar.

Mia's passive worked mildly similar to John. He can sense auras and because of each person's individuality, he can tell who each person is. Like how each person has their own aura, each one has their own temperature.

Lots of people have similar ones, but Mia knew she's crossed paths with whoever was down that hall before. She couldn't remember who it was, but she got a glance at them. Light brown hair, average height.

Later that day...

Class ended. The quartet were supposed to meet up after class, but Blyke went ahead. Remi ran up behind him and tapped his shoulders.

"HEY BLYKE!" Remi said, scaring him shitless.

"WUT THE FUK?!" Blyke cursed, "Aw, come on Remi. Don't do that!"

"Maybe don't leave us after class," Mia said.

"Oh oops, I forgot," Blyke said.

"Yeah right. Forgot, my ass," Isen said.

"Ugh, shut up dude."

"Wokay... Someone's a bit cranky today!"

"Uh, guys... Break it up, you two," Remi said.

"Let them argue, free entertainment," Mia said.

Remi laughed, "So what did you think of that quiz?"

"Easy," Mia said.

"Yep. Just copied off the dude next to me," Isen replied.

"Whaaat? That's no good!" Remi said.

Mia glanced over at Blyke who seemed spaced out. She put her hand on his shoulder, "You okay?" She thought he was feeling weak again, but that wasn't the case this time.

"Mmm, well... I'm not completely sure, but I think I have an idea of who joker is," Blyke said.

"...What?" The other three said. Mia and Isen looked at each other, worried.

They went into an empty classroom to talk without anyone eavesdropping.

"John? What's your reasoning behind that?" Remi asked.

"Well to be honest, there isn't much. It's just a strong feeling. I was wondering what Joker would be like at his weakest, and the idea hit me. If he doesn't have any abilities copied, wouldn't that make him powerless? And John is a cripple," Blyke said.

Mia and Isen looked at each other again.

"Ah, I don't know. Maybe I'm just overthinking it. I guess it doesn't really make sense."

"Hm... What do you guys think?" Remi asked. She turned to Mia, "Didn't you work with him on a project before?"

"Yeah..." Mia said dragging out the word.

"Wait a sec!" Blyke pointed accusingly at Isen, "Weren't you obsessing over him a while ago? I remember watching you look him up!"

Isen didn't respond.

"And when he moved in with me, you told me to be nicer to him!"

Still nothing.

Blyke was pissed. He grabbed Isen by the collar, "ISEN, YOU ASSHOLE! YOU'VE KNOWN SINCE THE BEGINNING, AND YOU NEVER TOLD US!?"
