 Andrew glanced up, smiling. He was glad for a conversation, since he honestly hated long periods of silence. "Well, my two sisters and I attend here, we've each got a supernatural ability, but our parents don't, so, they figured we should get an education somewhere." He nodded, glancing to the ship once before asking his own question. "And you? Any special story?"{ooc: eek, im sorry my posts have been so short >.<}

 This Is For Real,
Nodding to acknowledge his story, Rina pauses a moment. How much should she tell him? She wasn't exactly a fan of lying... But then again, not saying everything was different. "I'm a Sylph." she responds, airy wings appearing at her back to demonstrate such. "I am investigating this facility and evaluating its worth for my kind and our royal family." she responds, which was true in part. She had included a thorough report on the school on her first visit for enrollment, and was planning on doing so for the remainder of her time there. It was possible that there wouldn't be much to include the majority of the time, but it was better than nothing. "And my wanderlust kind of faded." she grinned again, almost appearing sheepish at the comment.

Andrew's eyebrows arched lightly at the mention of her family. He had to bite back a cheesy comment about that explaining why she appeared with beauty and politeness. Instead, he cleared his throat, now more engaged in the conversation as he heard her race. Her wings caught the majority of his attention, as they appeared quite brilliant in color. Her last sentence drew a light chuckle of understanding. It seemed plenty of students had wandered into Reed's. "I'm glad you've stopped here, and I hope you're enjoying it."{ooc: n/a}

Smiling at the interest taken by the students in his endeavors and the friendly air now about them Devlin smiled looking at them both. "What brings me here, Well six months back I found myself in a military hospital with a note in my hand and i started seeing things yet not seeing things hearing things yet not hearing things. And my daughters as well. See I'm quite new to the world of the supernatural and it comes as a bit of a shock to find out that my two angels should they chose can turn into snake creatures."
He smiled laughing a bit and then coughed back to the tank "First I believe we should endeavor to find a way to transport as much of these materials with the tank and drop them off to get the rest." looking around for a moment he began to open the crates revealing the workhorse of an assault rifle for many nations military's the AK 47 and ammunition boxes. Grabbing two of the boxes in each hand Looking at the two he coughed for another moment before hopping onto the tank in a single bound "Be careful you two these boxes are heavy and once we get a goodly number in the turret I'll teach you the controls and such Might be a bit of a trouble though, been round two decades at least since I've been in a soviet tank or otherwise so my Cyrillic might be a bit fuzzy." He said with good humor like always before disappearing into the tank to set the boxes of 7.62 ammunition inside the turret next to the tanks auto loader.
(Sorry for not posting my mind went a bit blank for a moment.)

This Is For Real,
Smiling shyly at his comment, the Sylph nods. "I'm glad I stopped here too." she responds, pausing so that she could hear Devlin's story. She didn't respond at first, as if trying to work it out for herself. "Something must have happened to the portion of your mind that sees the glamor." the glamor was, of course, what hid most of the supernatural from the eyes of normal humans. Sylphs were very familiar with the glamor, to the point where they could easily manipulate it to completely fade out of sight. Picking up an ammunition box in each hand, her airy wings appeared as she seemed to float up to where the hatch to the tank was. She stopped outside, feet an inch or so from the open hatch. "Where should we put them?"

"I don't know but whatever happened to me Rina, I've started seeing threads of various colors come from people and go off somewhere else, and I wouldn't call it mind reading but able to tell the intentions and feel emotions from people." he said as he began to carry another batch off ammunition into the turret. "At he question Devlin thought for a moment and nodded "Next to the rest by the auto loader." he said. as he took a break from the boxes of ammo to familiarize himself once again with soviet mechanics.

Andrew turned to Delvin as he spoke, listening politely to his story. As Rina spoke about glamor he picked up two boxes, one in each hand. "Well, you speak as if the new talent is a bad thing." It did sound, to him, as if Delvin didn't want the power, having no need of it. After following behind the Slyph, he follows Delvin's direction carrying the packages to thier destined location. {ooc: n/a}

Looking back up from where he was reading the controls and instruments Devlin coughed and looked towards Andrew though he couldn't see the boy. "It's not that necessarily, but Going most of your life thinking and knowing one thing and then something entirely different being introduced to you it takes getting used to. I mean would you accept it if you went most of your life without knowing your sisters and then meeting them like that?" "Takes adjustment, and luckily for us I'm used to chaos and the ever changing circumstances of battle, I'll be swaying like a kilt in the breeze used to this in no time." he said trying to lighten the atmosphere.

This Is For Real,
Dropping down into the hatch, Rina sets the ammunition boxes where she had been instructed. Flying up and out of the hatch, she drops back down on the ground beside the open box. "Or if your father got remarried to a woman you didn't know without telling you first." she throws in, almost sounding bitter. Pulling out more boxes, she leaps up to stand on the caterpillar track closest to her. "As for your ability, Mister Graham, it sounds almost like auras." she tells him, dropping down into the tank when it was all clear. Reappeaing a moment later, she hauls herself out to stand beside the opening. "At least, that's what it sounds like to me. An old Sylph in the Apennines tried explaining it to me once, but I was still too young to understand it." she carries on, continuing the journey back and forth with ammunition boxes. "But you seem to be adjusting fairly well, Mister Graham. Though quite frankly, even I am not completely used to all of this quite yet."

Andrew listened to Rina and Delvin speak, both made sense. If he had woken up suddenly with his talent, he would not have been so happy to have it. And it seemed as if the young sylph had her own version of that occurance. But he knew he was a lucky person, with a more supportive family than most from the human world. He walked back and forth moving the boxes on shifts with Rina as he spoke up. "Auras? Well that must come in handy with so many students."{ooc: n/a}

Chuckling as the loading of the weapons and amm8nition was nearing the end Devlin nodded "Yea, it certainly does help to weed out trouble makers. But reading aura's and such isn't all I can do I have found this uncanny ability to form shields as well and as the kind Japanese have shown us in the past a weapon can also double as a shield. He hinted at the Japanese Katana being used as both weapon and shield. Standing on top of the turret He took a deep breath and looked around the only evidence of their presence were the tracks of the treads and tires of the forklifts. Smiling he nimbly slide back into the hatch disappearing for a moment before coming back out with two headsets with mouth pieces. "So we all ready for a crash course in the operation of a tank?" he asked taking care not to touch subjects that might be sore and chose instead to switch the subject entirely winking at the syph.

This Is For Real,
Laughing quietly at Andrew's comment, Rina once again drops down into the tank once he had cleared out of the way. "Spot the troublesome ones early on, and be aware of pranks before they happen." she adds, pulling herself up and out of the tank once more. They had been working diligently for a while now, and she stopped to sit on the caterpillar track with her legs dangling above the ground. There seemed to be no more boxes to move, and so she instead seemed content to sit. When Devlin reappeared from the tank, her eyes lit up at the sight of the comms units. "Yes sir!" she grins, giving her best imitation of a military salute. Leaping into a standing position, she smiles faintly in response to his wink; he was a wise man indeed. She had a feeling that the headset would make her look like some sort of operator, but she didn't really care just then; she was going to get to assist in the operation of a tank. Being stuck in the small compartment with a cute boy was a bonus, but at the moment, her teenage girl side was being overshadowed by her interest in military equipment. It wasn't every day you got to be in a tank, after all, let alone drive it.

He smiled "At ease miss." he said grinning and held his finger up int he international sign of 'one moment please.' After doing so he ran a little bit and jumped grasping onto the 122 mm Cannon and began to shimmy his way towards the mouth of the gun. "Have to check something real quick." he said his voice sounding somewhat strained. He quickly got to his destination even though Russian tanks were unique in the aspect that their main cannons were almost the same length as the entire tank. Taking a quickly look he nodded and then quickly made his way back to standing on top of the tank on the front of it. "Ok then Rina, are you familiar with Cyrillic or have any idea of driving a tank?" he asked while opening the hatch into the drivers compartment.

Andrew smiled, sitting shortly after Rina did after the last box was relocated. He took a moment, enjoying the comfortable beach air until he was interrupted by his phone's ringtone. Pulling the device from his pocket he glanced at the screen, immediately answering at the sight of his younger sister's name. "Hello?" A moment of hello, and another few seconds of explanation and Andrew stood. So his elder sister was finally giving birth? And he would be an uncle. "Excuse me Mr. Graham, Rina." He smiled, explaining, "I've got a family blessing occur that I should probably attend to." Turning to speak directly to Rina, he added, "I hope I'll run into you again somewhere."{ooc: n/a}
