Private Finished The Cost Of Intelligence

Studying, Shiro didn't super care for it, but it was necessary and at least tonight she wasn't alone. Tomo sat across from her, both of them sitting on Shiro's bed, and her regalia, Alia sat in a chair nearby.

"Alia says my intelligence should be getting its boost soon," she'd say, sticking her tongue out playfully at her sister. "She thinks studying will help show when it kicks in," it'd fix her memory problems, she wouldn't need the meds anymore.

Opening her text book and her notebook shed look down at it, "besides the new abilities...how are you sis?" One of her cat ears would twitch as they spoke, her cat ears swishing behind her.

"You'll see once I pass you in class, maybe even get moved up a grade," she'd give her sister a gentle poke in the ribs, "don't worry little sis, I'll tutor you." Alia watched from a corner, the older regalia chuckling a little as she watched the two sisters talk and tease.

She'd hum in thought, "well yeah, were-forms aren't known to be easy to control," grabbing a bag of jerkr from her snack smile she'd toss it to her. "I think I'll focus on my partial shifting, like if I go that route I'll probably be able to get some good pieces of that form without fully shifting."

Flipping to a new page in her math book she'd read over the page, quietly taking the info in. She'd blink in surprise when she felt the info seep in easily, her mind absorbed the info easily, she knew how to do those equations already. Opening her notebook she'd go to writing, writing out full equations and instantly solving them. Pulling out her homework she'd do the same with some of the equations there.

"So...huh...," she'd blink down at the paper, a little surprised at how easy it was coming to her, "I did that....I just did that."

She'd giggle and stick her tongue out at her, "I'll be passing both you and Tadashi in grades," she'd say, teasing back. "If you're nice I'll let you borrow my notes," she'd say with that cocky mischievous smirk they both had. "That said.....I can already feel my memory getting better," she'd say with a soft smile, it wasn't going to be a problem anymore.

The cat shifter would turn back to her homework, reading from her book and doing her problems. She was going through them quickly, it felt good, her mind felt clear and strong.

Then she flinched, a pain shooting through her head, a memory she wasn't ready to remember pushing to the forefront. Her hands went to her head and she let out a shaky breath, it was of her adopter mother, he new ability was restoring her memories.

"I-I'm fine," she'd say, letting out a shaky breath as the pain subsided, "just a little headache is all." That was just one memory, one of many that'd she'd lost over the years, "uh....anyways, shouldn't you be studying? We have that exam coming up."

She'd quickly look down at her papers, writing down some more answers, she was feeling scared now. She was worried about what would happen if all her memories came back all at once.

"So, uh, how you and Lucas doing?" she'd ask wanting to quickly change the subject if possible and teasing Tomo over her crush seemed like a good way doing that. "You still doing the whole, will we or will we not? routine?" she'd ask with a teasing smirk.

"Suuuurrrre you don't," she'd say with a chuckle, continuing to fill out the questions, her mind easily remembering how to work the equations. "In all seriousness though...," she'd give him a smile, "he seems nice, you two seem like a good match."

She'd hum, her head still hurting a little from the memory, Alia watched her from her corner, a concerned look on her face. "Dating is weird isn't it?" Shiro would say, having learned this fact earlier than most.

The cat shifter looked down at her papers, so much had happened relationship wise. She'd daten and broken up with a terrible girl, everything around her had gotten weird. "How are you?" she'd ask, the back of her mind tingling, the other memories starting to stir.
