"Um, hello? I'm new here, and I was just wondering if...oh."

Kusuha stood in the Institute's main foyer, the absolute picture of frazzled, clueless new transfer. In theory, she was attempting to address someone in the throng of students for directions.

"Excuse...oh, I'm sorry."

The problem was, of course, that her power was acting up in the crowd, impressing deeply upon her just how impatient and in a hurry all these students were, and she kept stopping herself before actually getting anyone's attention. She doesn't want to bother someone who's busy after all, even a random middle schooler. They were obviously late for class. It was kind of annoying that it was end-of-year-exam time in America when her mental calendar was telling her it was the start of the new school year, but that was hardly an excuse to bother these nice people.

If only there was a teacher around. Or someone who'd at least pick up on the shy girl's distress even if she's trying hard not to act bothersome. Or panicked.
