"Sure thing. Works for me." She said.

"Excellent. I appreciate it. Jenna is a very capable and valuable member within our ranks, but she needs a strong leadership. I think you will do nicely."

Stella nodded and if that was all excused herself to hit the stores once more.
4 in Int to look for anything worth buying.

She found...
...a large collection of My Little Pony dolls and stuffed toys...
...a 'Bowcaster', a sort of laser crossbow firing energy bolts as ammunition...
...what seemed to be a whole-ass brachiosaur, ready to cook, sold in a meat shop...
...a strange laptop-like device in what appears to be a whacky sex shop...
...an old-looking scroll in a curiosity shop...
...an ancient, dusty tome in a Used Books shop, even though it was sealed by wax and had likely never been opened before...
...a full-on preserved eye in a jar...
...and a syringe in a clean-looking case holding a strange, bubbly looking liquid, sold by a shifty, eerie-looking scientist labcoat guy 'to make ends meet'.

Stella for her part bought the Bowcaster, the Latop, the Scroll, the book, the eye, and the syringe if she had the money for each. She wasn't much of a strange meat girl, and her brony fandom was relatively small compared to everything else she was into.

It took her pretty much all of her spending money for a while, but she managed to buy them all!

"Whew... Gonna need to take some extra jobs." Stella noted heading back to her room.

She found Jenna face first into her pillow, stark naked, and snoring.

Stella just smiled and slid off her sandals sitting on her bed as she fiddled with and expored her new items.
5 in Int to learn what I can about them.

The bowcaster was a noticeably technologically-advanced weapon, which could apparently blast HARD with metallic bolts encased in burning white plasma, however its range was limited.
The other items were much more puzzling to her. The scroll, she could not read. The laptop-like device, when turned on, was not quite like a computer. It made an odd 3D simulation of her surroundings with a lot of commands and data she wasn't quite sure to understand the purpose of, but it certainly seemed detailed. The eye in the jar wasn't labelled or anything, though she could swear she could 'sense' some measure of power within it. As for the syringe... it downright came with a manual with detailed information and extensive, pseudo-scientific explanations. She was fairly sure injecting someone with it would grant them a 'Quirk', a superpower of some sort... but the formula was not perfect, so it would come at a cost of some sort.
Finally, there was the book. Still sealed. In order to examine it, she would have to unseal it and open it up. Now the question was... did she want to do that before, or after she'd ask someone potentially more knowledgeable about it? Bowcaster:
-Bowcaster (+5, 2x damage, Limited AP, Range 3 weapon. Fires metal bolts encased in plasma energy.)

She decided to find and ask someone with a bit more knowledge

Among her own team, she knew that Naomi was more than gifted with technology and special items, and that Mana was great with occult items. She also knew the dorm rooms of both said teammates. Alternately, that Ami Mizuno girl she had worked with before was one heck of a genius if she recalled correctly, and could potentially help her with either issue.

Knocking at her dorm room, the door soon opened, revealing the brunette in a no-less revealing black nightgown, with an open bathrobe resting on her shoulders.
"...Hi."
