Ralph watched in amazement, and Elek along with (and trough) him. The nerdy man didn't even try hide his surprise and openly cheered: "that was awesome!" He approached Eve with a big grin, but decided against giving her a pat on shoulder or something like that. She didn't seem the type to appreciate it.

"That was impressive indeed, but just how did you do it? Did you manipulate some kind of energy field around you?" Elek questioned, coming up to her side. He thought for a short moment. "Or the energy that came with the thrown boulder?"

November 25th, Chicago; Sewer #17.

Leila felt that today had started really well. After a long day spent walking and brooding (and doing some horrible things to Amante a few times in her mind), the girl had managed to sleep for a decent amount of time and even get up before anyone else. But the best thing was that after schedule, she was to stay at outpost, sit back and relax, as someone informed Leila. While the group was still vary of the strange newcomer, she had not complained about anything and that made her a bit better in their eyes. Not to mention, realizing where she was going to live now, Leila had put away her frilly dresses and now wore dark grey sweater with matching pants and jacket. They were of a soft, warm material (and warmth was certainly appreciated down here), and rather simple, besides small silvery embroidery around the neck and end of sleeves. The only thing that seemed impractical were her high heel boots, but no one commented those.

Leila sat on one of the shabby chairs that had long since lost its original color, with one earphone plugged in ear, other hanging down. Her legs were crossed neatly and the girl seemed to be deeply engrossed in a book. Pan pipe music soothed her mind, and although she was rather relaxed, anyone would have a hard time sneaking up on her, or past her. She had learned to never let her guard down, despite what ever she was doing. Then again, few pairs of watchful eyes that aided Leila from shadows and walls, were certainly a help.
