Rey winced. He was… loud, yes, but more than that. His language was colorful, to say the very least. She knew that they were from very different parts of America from the accent alone. New York and Montana couldn’t be more unlike each other. Now, it didn’t matter where they came from. They were at U.A. now. What mattered were their talents, and how they decided to use them.
But it did color first impressions.
Putting all of that aside, it was a pleasure to meet another Support student. Despite being its own track, it often didn’t feel like it with how rarely they bumped into one another outside of class. She hadn’t heard of Anthony yet, and not because of his size. It was time to change that.
She smiled warmly at the boy. She lowered an index finger to shake his hand, which was smaller by at least several degrees.. ”Likewise. Call me Rey.” She looked back at the toolbox he had come out of. ”I take it micro gear is your specialty?”

Anthony took her finger with both hands and gave it what probably would have been a very disorienting shake if they were the same size.
"Specialty? Nah, don't got one of those. Well... I guess you can say I specialize in fixin' shit? My creativity typically spawns from a problem so until one is brought to me the sparks don't fly, figuratively and literally. If I'm inventin' somethin' from scratch I gotta know what the thing is gonna be for first, ya feel? I ain't one that can just think of something outa nowhere from a 'what if'. I gotta see a startin' line first. That said though, it is one of my favorite things to do. So bein' here full of people waiting to give me a problem to solve. Dream come true!
As he chatted he buzzed around the workshop, grabbing a tiny wrench out of his belt and squirming his way into his most recent work. It seemed to be some sort of mech-legs. A student with a jumping quirk asked for them a couple of days back and Jr had been working on them nonstop since. Well, he did pass out from exhaustion for a few hours but that's neither here nor there. Didn't need to mention that to his new friend. In fact!
"Oo! Oo! Actually! You bein' here could really help me out! Means while I'm workin' on the little details inside you can do the stuff you gotta be big for! And I don't gotta shift. Bein' big ain't all that comfy. Would ya mind? And then if ya got stuff to do we can work on that togetha too!"
