"Pleased to meet you, Ms. Mia," Gen said, nodding respectfully.? "I apologize if my... arrival... didn't follow proper procedure.? But I heard that your academy is kind of a refuge for mutants.? Which I kind of qualify as being.? Kind of," he added with an uneasy shrug.??
"I was explaining to Akira here some of the things I can do.? I was designed to be able to survive a number of different environments, including some fairly harsh ones.? For that reason, my body has the ability to change to adapt to those environments.? I can, for example, grow gills to allow me to breathe underwater.? I can modify my hands and feet to allow me to climb or cling to almost any surface.? I can grow wings if I need to fly.? And I can heal faster than normal if I get injured, repairing in minutes or hours what would normally require weeks or months.??

"I can give you a demonstration, if you like." He hesitated, with a sidelong glance at Akira, then added "If it wouldn't creep you out or anything,"?

Mia gave Gen a smile, "no, your arrival like others, was not proper procedure. Everyone that it employed here knows to simply bring a mutant in for their protection and every thing else can be worked out later." She listened to Gen describe himself. "Designed? You were not birthed but created in a lab? No need for demonstrations. Were you running away from those that created you?"
Akira listened to the two talk back and forth. He was glad that Gen had found this place, or rather was brought in from the outside by one of their own. Who knew what might have happened to him, had he not been found.
