Calypso Gandr| Descendant Of Ao Kuang
Calypso's jump was stopped half way through when he launched into a tirade about how it wasn't for attention and praise. Which, was surprising, because that was what made sense given what she had seen so far. So, looking over her shoulder at him, she'd cock her head softly.
"The right thing to do? I get you've got roots that want to be a Drengr because of childhood trauma, but then why wait? You know this place is saturated with crime, and you know that that level of consistent crime doesn't just happen in a vaccum. A city can't survive if everyone in it is poor, so there has to be some orginization to it. There have to be gangs and groups and mafias that drive and direct the crime while ruling over the city. But you don't want to find them, you want only the crime right in front of you. The easiest, the lowest, and the most visible. That is the only reason you would need a petty crime to be happening right before your eyes before you did anything about it"
She'd then turn to him fully then and give him a smile.
"It's not bad, it's not wrong. Even if you don't want to admit it to me, or yourself, wanting to do what gets you recognized, wanting to do the glorious deed rather than the required deed..It's hardly a unique trait. Everyone's life is there own, after all"

He cooled down pretty fast when she started to provide some nuance to what she was saying. It was okay to want to be recognised for doing good things. She didn't want to just wait around for something bad to happen; she wanted to be proactive and root out the people at the top causing trouble around the city. The issues were more complicated than mafias and gangs though; supernatural trouble. He felt he'd need to explain in a bit more detail about this particular issue.
"There's more trouble to this town than just gangs though, demons and hollows attack here also which is way more troublesome than the local petty issues in the town which near enough unites us here; even the mafia bosses know if the city gets destroyed, there's no money to be made, so I focus more on the supernatural attacks rather than the local ones because they pose the greatest threat to us. I suppose right now there wouldn't be anything wrong with teaching them a lesson though."
Looking determined to go make a positive difference in his city, Nenka could also jump very high with his own powers, way beyond any average human. He would get a glimpse of his broken down, somewhat slummy city and it only filled him with more determination to see this city defended and rebuilt into a nice place that he dreamed it could be.

Spinning on the spot and kicking off with her Lightfoot, she would launch upwards at a great speed, landing on the edge of one of the rooftops and then leaning over with great physical balance.
"I don't know about Demons, but the Shinmeiryuu warriors have been hunting the masked Hollow creatures since the inception of the style. If you truly need protection from them, a few Naku and Diener clansmen being hired would go a great way to holding them off. I know how to deal with the supernatural. But, it seems the mafia bosses want to keep-"
She'd then fall from her purch as the woman's body suddenly stiffened and shuddered from great pain, blood being hacked out from her mouth as she fell helplessly towards the ground...

NENKA FOTIA
Nenka was taken off guard as she suddenly began to plummet down to the ground, his face forming one of total shock as his instincts kicked in; right now at this moment he needed to save her, even though he had no idea what he had just saw as she mysteriously collapsed.
"What the hell!? Calypso!!"
He shouted out to her as his body moved on its own, reacting at a incredible speed to take hold of her in his arms as they hit the ground with a powerful thud, but he was fine; he was superhuman after all, this kind of fall wouldn't have any effect on him. Nenka was far more concerned about the sudden and rapid deterioration of his new friend, he tried to speak to her sounding very worried to find out what's going on.
"What's happening to you!? Do I need to find a doctor!? "
All kinds of intrusive, worst case scenario thoughts began to fill his mind; he didn't want to see someone with a good spirit just die in front of him again, it'd happened way too much.. this is why he wanted to be a hero, to stop this happening. The panic in his eyes was crystal clear.

Calypso Gandr| Descendant Of Ao Kuang
Calypso's skin had turned a strange white-blue colour, and her hair was stark white. The blood that she was coughing up, was evaporating quickly, though that probably went unnoticed as Calypso's pain caused her to writhe and spasm in his arms. And then, sudden as it came, her skin and hair returned to normal colours and she returned to normality. Or close enough to it.
"Hohh...shit. That would have hurt. More" she exclaimed, looking to Nenka and giving him a warm, somewhat bashful smile. "Thanks...for the catch" she'd have a very strange look as evaporated steam wisped out of her mouth from the blood that didn't get spat out.
"So...context. I was crippled beyond repair and then a woman came and offered me a solution. Which, fixed the problem but apparently she's of a level of power my body can't handle, and so occasionally it decides to try and explode. But, M'lady Queen is too powerful to just let me explode so it's merely excruciating agony when it flares up. Which I will take over exploding"
Calypso's tone was less confident and more stuttering as she recovered from the fit, but otherwise had the same casual stating to it.

NENKA FOTIA
He sighed a giant breath of relief when she seemed to return to normal, it was a very scary moment. In this stressful moment, he smiled at her when thanked for catching her. It was nothing he needed to be thanked for; it was a matter of course for the young hero. Nenka listened attentively to what happened to her. It sounded like a curse... a heavy price to pay.
"That really does not sound like a solution to me, more like a band aid.. we need to find you a permanent solution.. there's no way you could fight like that. What if it was your life on the line and that happened!? Let me help you, surely we can find a better way!"
He sounded full of genuine concern and it was just like Nenka; he had only met the woman and already he felt such strong emotions when he saw her suffer and instantly leapt to her aid. Suddenly, he wasn't worried about the city at all; he wanted to try and do something for her that would solve the issue she faces. It was not easy to ever see someone suffer like that, but Nenka's emotions enhances that tenfold. He couldn't bear to see a scene like that again..

"When the problem is solved, that's a solution. If I am in a fight so fierce and so back-footed that I will die the second I make a mistake, then I am going to die anyway. I have no worries or concerns, Nenka. So you should not have either"
She'd boop him on the nose and slide back to her feet with an abundance of grace, stretching and spinning on the spot a bit.
"Really not for me. Dam, I'll have to find another one" She muttered to herself, before turning to Nenka.
"Besides, what's the best solution to having a power beyond your abilities? Get better abilities" She gave such a pragmatic and forward-thinking comment that she could easily be considered deluded by some. "Doesn't matter if the past is bleak, or you failed in the past. The past is only there as a lesson, one must storm the gates of the future with it, not cling to it without movement"

NENKA FOTIA
He seemed flabbergasted at what she said. What kind of mentality is that!? There's no way Nenka could accept that as she managed to get back on her feet. He quickly had to give her a rebuttal, strongly disagreeing with this kind of mentality. It was a real issue to him that had to be solved as soon as it could be.
"Calypso you've gotta be kidding me! Trying to solve a problem affecting you constantly in the present isn't some issue of the past to leave behind. Its not okay if you just go and die because of something out of your control! I won't allow it... if you want to go and storm the future, the future is where you find an answer to the ailments affecting you now and there.."
Then again, he'd understand what it means to have powers way beyond yourself to the point it effects you. At least, he could empathise with her about how it felt; since inheriting the spirit of Poliro, Nenka has had a lot of negative side effects, but nothing too serious.. yet.
"I had an accident too.. its actually how I gained all my power. It was weird... it was like something had took over me.. and lit my soul ablaze. Since then, I've been able to control the power of fire but sometimes, I feel so heavy and weak and like I'm going to faint.. I'm still trying to figure out what's going on there.."

"Being unable to walk and barely strong enough to sit up is a worse affliction. The solution to my current one is in the future, when I get more powerful. I shall take the drawbacks of the current affliction, and if they cause my death then it is preferred to the half-life I had beforehand" She'd look to him and give him a soft smile. He'd not be able to truly understand, given he was not from Wulin, but being unable to act was worse than death. A hundred times worse than death.
"Though, I am no spiritual" she exclaimed, shaking her head and walking over to him to take his hand. "But, I know if you feel heavy and weak, then you must become better than you are, so that every day is less heavy, less weak. Until one day, you no longer feel either. And thast starts here and now, finding new ways to become better. To exceed yourself without being so brash and without thought that you cut off what could be"

Nenka didn't really understand what she meant by a half life before it happened; in general he didn't quite get her message but he gathered that she was trying to be motivational; keep pushing forward to find the answers and grow stronger. That was a message he could get behind. He asked her to make sure he was getting the central idea of what she was saying at least.
"I think I get it.. we get stronger to overcome our problems and the solution to yours is to become stronger. I think strength is one part of the solution for me, but the solution to my problems are so much more complicated. I want the world to be a peaceful place, where no one has to live in fear of being killed by some otherworldly demon or being beyond their understanding.. even if I gain the strength to be able to take them all on, it wouldn't be so simple.
She seemed to have a more simple view of things, but Nenka's ideals and visions were much.. grander. Wanting to save the world and be a hero is seen as a childish thing because despite how good it sounds, its infinitely more complicated than it sounds at first. It never would deter him though, it was the path he had set himself on since a young age, for better or for worse. Despite how complex it felt at times, Nenka was focused on just trying to do what was best by his moral code.
