Feliks brushed out his skirt, inspecting his stockings--no, they were just fine. Good. Because he just bought those, and if they got messed up, he was going to have to hunt those jerks down!

"I've totally had worse," he told her, sounding altogether too carefree and peppy about it. There wasn't always someone else to step in, and his own power was a pretty recent development; he didn't accept that getting beat up was part of his life, because it was total bullshit, but he wasn't going to let it drag him down too much, either. "And you looked like you took a couple worse hits than me there... Utena, huh? I'm Feliks Łukasiewicz! C'mon, let's go get some smoothies!" He linked his arm with hers, and, unless she protested, strolled off towards the food court with her in tow.

The best revenge, after all, was living well, and it struck him at that particular moment that living well demanded smoothies.

"A-Alright." She said, blushing a bit at his arm in hers. But then, she'd just saved a beautiful princess, and that was one of the things one did afterwards, right?

Of course everyone in the food court was looking at them, but Utena was none too concerned as she ordered one of those high protein smoothies ironically beloved of the dudebros they'd just run off.

"That was pretty cool what you did back there...yknow, turning my wooden sword real."

People stared, but whatever--he was sure most of them, at least, hadn't seen the fight, but the rest were just your average freak-watchers. He'd set off every gaydar in a four-block radius since he was like, ten anyway, so why should he care if people thought he was a lesbian now?

He ordered something sugary--mixed berry whatever-it-was, as long as it was sweet! And it was, a glorious confection about a mile away from any semblance of actual healthiness. Perfect! Taking a seat near the sunglasses shop and a sip of his drink, he smiled up at Utena. "Oh, that? That was totally no big!" Imagining fake things were real was easy--his powers had the potential to get a lot more off the walls than that, and often did. When he wasn't just using them to mess with his clothes, that was.

Meanwhile, Utena was completely unaware of any homophobia that might be around her if it wasn't explicitly pointed out, her eyes much more attuned to anti-mutant prejudice. She slid in across from him.

"So you can, like, turn things into other things?" She said, rubbing her shoulder where it had suffered impact. All that superhuman movement came at a price.
