Identifying

[Roxana Strix]

Roxana felt Elsa in her head still, rooting around and if she was not been ordered to protect this girl, it would have been very likely that she would have killed her by now. She was too much of a threat. Not only because of her ability but because of her personality to be so bold as to go into someone’s mind when they could feel you digging around inside their head. It was rather rude for someone who was supposed to be the princess of the school. Well, even if Elsa had not been the princess of the school it still would have been rude and Roxana would have put her in her place pretty quick. She honestly still could. Maybe punch the other girl in her stomach to knock the wind out of her or give her a warning cut? There were things she could do, but if she was aggressive towards the other girl it would make things difficult because the way Elsa was. She had one of those personalities that was going to make Roxana’s job a pain. Not that she had a choice in the matter, she was going to have to deal with it and put on a smile in front of others but when they would end up alone then other things would happens.

They would end up alone again at some point, Roxana would make sure of it, and plan for when and where is would happen. Since Elsa knew more then she should have Roxana was going to have to keep an extra close eye on her. She had brought it upon herself. Elsa could be like the others where they had no clue and would be checked in without them really knowing from time to time. Now Roxana was going to have to watch her more, possibly plan a few bugs to keep a better eye on the girl. She was also going to have to do something about keeping Elsa out of her head. Her tactics worked a little, but they were not full proofs and full proof would be necessary so she would be able to at least have a few secretes. Elsa let out a giggle which had Roxana glaring for a small moment at the other girl. She did not like her, but at the same time she did. Then Elsa started speaking, going on to talk about the differences between the two of them. They both had been going back and forth at this now and Roxana was happy to meet her back at this game, if anything so to put this princess in her place.

Roxana was going to give a comeback for everything Elsa said, but Elsa said however and then crossed her arms. This meant that there was going to be some form of agreement established. There was that look that Roxana hated. One she got from those who were older in her professional, thinking she could not do a job as well as them because she was young. Fist formed as she glared at Elsa for a moment before her face went blank without emotion. Eyes looking at Elsa as if there was no life in them for a moment as she stopped her thoughts for a moment. It was all a very brief second before she smiled at the other girl. “Too useful to expose right now?” Roxana asked as she gave a small scoff, moving to step closer to the girl so they would be face to face. Well sort of, since Roxana was taller than Elsa she did have to look down a little at the other girl. “I’m too useful to ever be given away. You are not the only one I’m look after, so you can hop down off your high horse princess.” Roxana said with a simple tone as she remained close in the other girl’s persona space.

“It is however in both our interest that we call a truths right?” Roxana asked because surely this girl had to be smart to understand just how useful Roxana was and Roxana realized how useful Elsa would be.

[Elsa Bellefonte]

Elsa kept skimming thoughts, noting the aggressive ones. That was one advantage of keeping up a constant look at the streaming thoughts: she could predict actions like that. Sometimes it didn't matter. Just because you knew a bullet was coming didn't mean you could stop it from connecting with you. She did have some basic self defense skills, but she didn't think she'd manage too well against Roxana. It didn't really matter though: she had all the cards, and the other girl would soon have to realize that.

A tight smile for a tight smile, the two standing off and staring at one another, each daring the other to budge first. Elsa arched her brows as Roxana leaned forward, putting that height to use. Part of the Bellefonte girl was absolutely terrified, as the other girl clearly had physical superiority on her. None of that showed on Elsa's face, especially as the more dominant emotion, something akin to boredom mixed with amusement, reigned upon Elsa's face. "So, you're guarding several people then,' she said, nodding, "that does make you more useful, or at least," the smile tightened, "less expendable," because Elsa wouldn't necessarily give away someone else's protector, not if said protector wasn't doing anything to endanger Elsa or her family.

A truce, that had Elsa nodding. "That is exactly what I'm suggesting," she said, her voice still even, "as I don't think either of us wants to see the other fail," at least not on this. Elsa did wonder how this girl intended to keep going and keep everything under wraps. Then again, Roxana did seem quite well trained; she might be very surprising indeed.

[Roxana Strix]

Roxana could not outright hate Elsa oddly enough, even with how this girl was behaving towards her. Well, she honestly understood why she could not really hate the girl. It was because Elsa was able to keep it together despite the situations. She had to have some kind of training as a child and actually paid attention. Roxana knew that Elsa had people to help her with her powers and it was her error for underestimating what the girl was fully capable of. She didn’t really have much option other than running away and that was not really in Roxana’s mind to do. That would have been even more suspicious then trying to stand her ground. She stood it, Elsa found out what she did and here they were having a back and forth with one another. Elsa seemed to keep it together even when Roxana closed the distance between the two of them. She disliked Elsa in the fact that this girl was a bitch; however, Elsa was just doing what she should have been doing in order to protect her family and look after herself. Roxana could not outright hate her for that, even if the way Elsa was going about it was very rude for a princess of the school.

“I’m wondering how many people are willing to be around you when you talk this way. Or are you just this way when you meet someone for the first time?” Roxana asked but it was not really a question, more of a way to call Elsa out for being a bitch without saying it. She was curious as to if this girl even had friends or if she had to pay people to be around her. Either way it did not matter because Roxana had to look after her, had to keep her and other safe. The two words that Roxana hated to hear left Elsa’s lips and Roxana’s drop her facial expression to that of not giving away anything and kind of cold and shutting out feelings. She had to; it was what she did every time she heard those two words so they would not get her down. She was expendable, less in this situation, but she still was. She knew that from the say she was born that there was someone who could do her job better and if she died it did not matter so long as the job got done. Her parents, her trainers, those who put her do the different test all told her this. It did not mean she liked to hear it. Who liked hearing that their life meant nothing and all that matter was their job?

“Failure is not an option. So yes, I say that we come to an agreement.” Roxana said still in a cold tone as she looked at the other girl, not moving from her spot. Holding her ground and looking down at the other girl. It was always the entitled that Roxana would have to serve and she was alright with it all. The words Elsa used were not known, Roxana heard them before and in her mind she took it as a way for her to prove a point. That her life meant something and that she could get the job done just as well as anyone. They had picked her after all to do this job, trusting her with such a task. It had to mean that they expected her to succeed since she had not outright failed a mission yet.

[Elsa Bellefonte]

Elsa kept skimming the thoughts, taking in what she could. Words came though, words that made Elsa's smile tight. Roxana was mistaken if she thought that she was the first person to notice this about Elsa, the first to think her a bitch and the first to point out that she wasn't going to make many friends this way. Most of the time the people saying that were the ones that Elsa had just turned in or pointed out rules to, but this certainly wasn't the first time that she'd had a very similar conversation to this.

However, Elsa remained quiet, letting Roxana continue. An agreement, spoken in the same cold tone that Elsa used ever so often. She nodded a little, but then smiled, this time the expression looking wry. "I'm not here to make friends; I don't need them. I'm here to protect my family and my family's interest. If you stand against those, then you're a problem, and I'm the Bellefonte who fixes problems. I leave making friends to my sisters; I leave making nice to my brother. I'm the bitch because someone in our family has to be, and, well," she smiled, "I'm good at it."

Elsa waited for a beat, feeling tremendously smug, before nodding and turning. She gestured over her shoulder as she walked away, heading back toward her dorm room. "We'll be in touch, I'm sure. You'll know where to find me."

[Roxana Strix]

Roxana kept the cold expression on her face even after she was done talking and then Elsa went to talk. Roxana was not really all that surprised by the words the left the other girl's mouth. She expected them. Knowing what the reports said on each of the Bellefonte children and how Elsa was not all that much like her twins. That was good because at least they were their own person, but at the same time. It brought an interesting question to Roxana's head. Elsa said she was not here to make friends, she didn't need them, and basically she was the way she was because someone in her family had to be. Roxana however could not agree with that. Everyone needed someone, even if it was just one person one things. Roxana had Delta, he was a bird, but he was her something that allowed her to not fully be alone. True loneliness was maddening for a human being if that had not been raised alone. Even if they had, there was still that desire to be around other, so Roxana didn't buy into Elsa's words.

Roxana would not and didn't plan on saying anything about it, this time around at least. The two of them were going to meet again, that was for sure. They would have to because Roxana now had to keep a closer eye on this twin of the Bellefonte family. Roxana remained expressionless even as Elsa seemed to pause before she turned to go on her way. Roxana watching her as she left and gave a small nod, waiting until Elsa was out of site. "I do know where to find you and we will meet very soon." Roxana said going to get her computer and head back to her room to complete writing up her report, noting to now do it in her room only.
