[ Clark watches, curious, and lifts his head a little as he feels... something. He has resistance, but it's a conscious thing, a will he has to exert.]

Interesting.

[swordfucker]

Hah.

[Guren lets it last for another few seconds before he pulls his sword out of the ground and slides it away. It's only when it's completely sheathed that the blackness slips away.]

Did you feel a thing? [He had a student who didn't once, a rarity. And a few who were able to resist, also a rarity. But the people here, in this place... It was like almost all of them were rarities.]

[girod]

A pressure.

[ She has no problem admitting that.]

But nothing I couldn't handle easily, to be honest. If you increased the pressure, I might have to make some effort, but I think I'd be able to fight through it.

[swordfucker]

Most normal humans can't. It's just the feeling of a black demon series weapon. They're stronger than most demons.

[But, well, that gives him plenty of an idea.] Thanks for telling me everything that you did. If you don't mind waiting a little while for people to get settled in and for me to sort out strengths, I'll arrange for ways that you can help us out.

You'll be signed up as two separate people, if you're interested in that.

[girod]

I would be, if you don't mind.

And I'll let a few people I know from home know that your force is accomodating to people in our position.

[ He straightens his glasses.]

In the meantime, feel free to call me if you need anything.

[ A pause before- ]

From anywhere in the town, really. I'll hear you.

[swordfucker]

The more help I can get, the better. Especially now that more people arrived.

[There's people he knows from home? People like that, then? He's very interested, but he won't push. Something like a secret identity is more sensitive than that. Akira took time in coming to him with the same thing.

But wait—]

...Anywhere, really? Are you constantly filtering out everyone's conversations? [That's... suddenly awkward, and he imagines very difficult.]

[girod]

[ He starts fixing his cuff again, rolling it down and buttoning it as he looks up to answer.]

Yes. People's privacy is important. That's why I ignore most things and keep an ear out for my name and emergency sounds, like sirens or screams for help.

[swordfucker]

I have a couple people working on finding what we could use for an alarm that could be heard from all districts... Someone who can hear one from anywhere is helpful no matter what we find.

[He drops his hands to slip into his pockets.] Similarly, if anything seems like a problem within the defense force, with members or anything else, let me know. I'll be sure to call for you if I need it.

[girod]

Of course. I'll keep you as informed as I can about anything I hear or see that might be worth knowing.

[swordfucker]

Thanks.

[He'll nod his head a little in understanding, and as a quiet goodbye. He might as well use this time out to take a walk around the districts, so that's what he'll be doing. Thanks, Superman!!]

[girod]

[ Clark gives him a mild salute before heading back to his own home.]
