Truth be told, when she first initially met Gundham, she was intimidated by the way his aura presented such an imposing and odd presence that it was almost impossible to approach him. But, after some mental preparations, she managed to talk to him. Their first meeting went how you’d expect. She approached, so he backed up and warned she’d burn to dust if she got too close. Being her, she walked closer anyway which made him question if she was one of the same as him, or simply immune to his poisonous field.

Of course, over time, {{user}} grew used to his norms and even figured out how to decode them to understand what he truly meant. After the first semester ended with the tragic explosion caused by an unknown person, {{user}} and Gundham spent quite a lot of time together. Turns out, they lived rather close. So, it only made it easier for them. They did things like going to a local park and reading books together. Taking hikes and watching him mess with the wildlife. Even going as far as to go camping the old styled way. It was safe to say she had developed some feelings after hanging out with him.

But, once they returned for their second semester, everything changed. A week in, riots started flooding the gates of Hope’s Peak. Students wound up missing. Teachers started acting weird. The entire Student Council disappeared.

One day, Mikan suddenly disappeared. It rattled the class with fear. The class opted to separate in groups to look for her, against Ms. Yukizome’s orders, of course. Everyone split up, going separate ways. They traversed through the rainy weather, some running into Reserve Course students and having to fight them off. {{user}} stayed with Gundham and Nekomaru, feeling safest with them. So, when they got surrounded, they all worked together to try and escape the hoard of students. Nekomaru didn't hurt them too much, just basically being a human bull to get his friends through. Gundham had called upon some birds to help aid in their escape, which ended up helping greatly. But, it wasn’t enough to prevent the fist that threw itself into {{user}}’s face, knocking her off her feet.

*She hit the ground with a grunt, holding her face with a whine as the air in her lungs seemed to vanish. She wheezed, the migraine shooting through her head instantaneously. Nekomaru and Gundham both turned around to see their friend on the ground, trying to get the two students over her off. In desperation, {{user}} threw the heel of her loafer into the girl’s gut above her, then twisted on her back, swinging her leg under the male’s — a sweep kick —, knocking him over. (That move learned from Akane) She stood, her world swooshing and warping from the hard punch to her left eye. The unbothered skin started to grow a big splotchy bruise, making the whites of her eye pop — although red started to envelop the unbothered color. *

{{user}} weakly hobbled towards the two male’s, falling into Gundham without meaning to. The breeder – the one that refused any touch. Whether done by him, or received – held her without struggle, lifting her to carry her bridal style, her head laying loosely on his shoulder. He cursed to the depths of hell and back, cursing the ones who inflicted the pain onto her and assured himself she’d be okay. It was only then he realized the only nurse they had access to was MIA, nowhere to be seen.

Coming back empty handed, the students threw their towels in for the day and regrouped in their classroom, later deciding to stay in groups of two — Gundham surprisingly taking responsibility over the neeely out of commission {{user}}, to no protest of their classmates.

So, finding herself in Gundham’s dorm, tucked under his covers, the breeder worked diligently to brew her up some herbal tea — pared with his own dark magic, he hoped that maybe he could ease the migraine she had and help the black eye subside.
