[u][i]Adam Leo Blackmore.[/i][/u] Adam nodded at Kristen. A healing ability? No, she said it helps with healing.... Two different things. It'd be rather difficult to tell her about it since he doesn't know. Right now all he can do is read about her pheromones. He turned his head away for a moment and peered at Vespera. What she was going on about, however, left plenty to ignore. He mentally filed her under 'practicing', thus he can go back to her later. "I do not know of that ability..." He blankly stated. Well, this wasn't going to be too informative as is. "... However, I can tell you everything you need to know if you'd aptly demonstrate." He put out his hand. [u][i]Jaska Din Valos[/i][/u] Most of what sea-urchin lady said went clean over Jaska's head. He wasn't really paying too much attention to it because it all seemed so unimportant to him. He only paid attention to her once she said something that struck a chord with him. A similarity between the two parties. He lived in relative isolation for most of his life, away from other people, honing his skills and living ignorant to the world at large. Only once he was introduced to the Valos is when he was introduced to the other side and the wider world. He wanted to say they had something in common, but didn't know how to say it. "Umm... I didn't really know anyone like me either... Except for my mommy." Yes, Reiko Ain, the woman who brought him into this world. There is no one else he could draw any similarities to other than her... He should talk to her when he gets the chance. However, Fish-man started asking Jaska questions before he gets too deep into his thoughts. "Mhm, I cam here yesterday with my brother and sister." He politely answered his question. The other question was trickier... What [i]should[/i] they know? It was beyond Jaska, and he wasn't the type to think too hard. "Oh, there's a few nice people here! Like Henry. He's so big and he got me a fish." The boy really appreciated getting such a meal. "Uhhhhh... I don't really know what else to tell you..." He shrugged, "... He's taking people out in the jungle later... I don't know..." [u][i]Jake & Gabe Valos.[/i][/u] [i]Looks like little miss sunshine missed the memo.[/i] Gabe rolled her eye as she stared down Evan. This girl was probably dense if she couldn't figure out what was going on. What os going on was explained. Repeatedly. Hell, even Gabe could walk in here, take one look, and figure it all out. "You must be the kind of gal that need [i]obvious[/i] things spelled out for you..." Gabe said to herself underneath her breath, with a smirk. She wasn't going to say it outloud. The last thing she was going to do is make enemies (When mostly everyone else made her their enemies). But Gabe picked up on the hostility Evan was giving off, and disregarded it. This girl was probably some little miss sunshine who got an attitude the second things didn't go her way. [i]Soooo[/i] not worth her time.  That was the reason why, other than that smartass remark to herself, she didn't say anything to Evan. [i]Yup, tall, white and venomous.[/i] Jake thought that everyone here should know of the current scene, unless Evan missed something. Understandable, this whole school is a massive clusterfuck. He was going to politely answer her questions, piece by piece. "It is very nice to meet you, Evan." He politely greeted. He was going to drop the cheeky thematics for now. "You, are in the middle of power training, headed by that old guy, Adam." Jake shot a thumb in the direction of Adam. "People are just walking up to him, and demonstrating their powers while he's pointing out things that they could learn. Everyone else is either sitting here on our behinds or practicing." Jake explained it the best he could. "Or sparring, but I don't think people are really interested in [i]that[/i]." He finished. Sparring wasn't something he was into, he only fought when there was no other option. "After this, he mentioned something about a capture the flag kind of thing. Hmph, there's no way I'll miss out on that." Capture the flag. Now that sounds enticing. Jake could be such a dick at that game ([i]Tricking everyone into thinking he has the flag, or he could just grab the flag and leave an illusion[/i]) it wasn't even funny. It was just the kind of thing that would be fun for the Valos. [u][i]Amanda Daisy Blackmore, & Sylvia Lana Bertoose.[/i][/u] "Alrighty then..." Amanda did one last stretch. Stephen was just standing there like an idiot while she got ready. It was time to spring her little trap. The metal hands she had created started moving towards Stephen, at not too fast of a rate. They weren't going to do anything, but distract him. While they were moving towards Stephen, she quickly bumrushed  him, using every once of speed to close the distance... And, Jesus, she quickly felt the heat that he gave off. Probably his power, but he wasn't deterred. She would have made a sex joke like [i]'Am I making you hot?'[/i] if she wasn't focused on kneeing Stephen in the balls. Like Stephen predicted, Sylvia was having a hard time watching the fight. It was getting hot.... A heat power? Sylvia didn't know that much about heat, but she wondered what her power would do in a fight with him. Sound vs. Heat. Something that she can't really counter like, say, someone who had super strength. She figured that regardless of his ability to generate heat, she could blast him across the room, or blow his ear drums out, if they ever brawled. However, she couldn't really watched the fight[i] normally[/i]... Which is why God gave her the ability to perceive sound. She blinked and saw sound waves. She knew exactly where Stephen was, and gained a vague outline of his body. It was enough to keep track of him. The fight just started. [u][i]Deborah Lillian Termellio, & Shannon Jacqueline Balore.[/i][/u] Portable curtain. And here Shannon thought Karlie be bold enough to get undressed in front of everyone. Whatever. Both girls waited patiently until she stepped out. All dressed up in the slutty outfit that Shannon made for her. Both girls started wildly snickering like little school girls. It was just[i] too[/i] funny that Karlie took the bait and more. Especially since Shannon basically got her to humiliate herself. Karlie moved her mouth, but not a sound came out ([b]She is effective mute until she takes off the outfit[/b]). Deborah watched her body language ([b]She is attempting to communicate through body language, she wants to know what you and Shannon think[/b]). Oh, that makes sense. "You look rockin' in that!" A legitimate compliment. Karlie certainly good looking in that, but Deborah wasn't getting the hots for her. Debs heart belongs to Shannon. But she had to think about what the staff (I.E. Adam) were going to think when they see a student wearing such a provocative outfit. "Now take that off before Adam has a seizure." [i]Or some boy pops a boner.[/i] It's a win-win, Shannon got Karlie to humiliate herself, and she stopped talking. [i]What a dream come true![/i] Then Deborah proposed that she takes off the outfit. And end [i]the silence?[/i] Hell no. "So soon? She just looks so good in it that there'd be no point in taking it off so fast." She said with a chuckle, "Besides, I can show Adam how it feels to wear such an outfit. [i]That'll[/i] change his mind." Both girls chuckled. However, they got themselves a little guest. A... They didn't know if this person was a boy or girl. Definitely looked foreign with that olive skin, slim body, certainly Androgynous. This chick's gender definitely is definitely not the thing that's important here, what [i]is[/i] important here is that she can't be read by Deborah. No matter how hard she looked at Salia, how hard she looked for even a glimpse of body language, she couldn't get a [i]single[/i] thing out of this girl. Her power was dead when looking at this girl, only getting information through her other senses ([i]I question my sanity, is this girl even here?[/i]). While Deborah has encountered a similar effect in Cerebral and Extra-Sensory types, there was something different about her. She wasn't going to freak out. This question had a simple solution: Salia here must have a power that counters hers. [i]Things just got interesting.[/i] Deborah slyly smirked and gave Salia an amused smirk. Before Deborah had a chance to answer, Shannon naturally had to speak first. No one else was answering this boy-girl's question after all. "Both. We are free to do as we please until the real activities start. Everyone just takes this time to talk to each other." She sounded bored, and didn't make an effort to even hide it. Salia was likely not worth her time, just a new student asking a simple question before being sent on their way and they'll never see each other again. "The three of us? We're just..." Shannon peered at Karlie for a second, "... [i]Practicing[/i]!" Before she chuckled again. [i]Well, that covers it.[/i] Deborah shrugged. Since Shannon seemed to be rather dismissive. "Hi, I'm [i]Deborah[/i]. Nice to meet you." She introduced herself. That was the cue for everyone else to do the same. But Shannon kept her lips sealed. [u][i]Theresa Sindel Obott, & Dana Lucille Alcott[/i][/u] Curses Henry! Right when they walk up, he bails out. Leaving them with Pandaman and the one eyed lady, along with Henry's girlfriend. This got awkward fast. Both Theresa and Dana started peering around awkwardly. It wasn't that they were uncomfortable around these people, it was just how sudden Henry called them over then bolted. It just... Left a bad taste in their mouths. "Next time I see him I'm going to breath [i]all over him[/i]." Theresa whispered to Poppy. Well, since there's here, might as well make the best out of things. But before she could do anything, her phone buzzed. Perfect. That better be Henry. Yes, it is Henry, apologizing for ditching them for no reason at all.  The one eyed lady did a double take and say who they are. [i]No, we totally didn't just introduce ourselves two seconds ago.[/i] Tess thought to herself as she rolled her eyes. "Yes, spot on. I'm [i]Theresa Obott[/i], she's [i]Dana Alcott[/i]." She didn't have to ask for Asae's name, because, unlike her, she was actually playing attention. Dana saw the situation for what it really was. Honestly, they weren't here to see what happened, but Dana got the feeling it had to do with Victoria and Tetsuya. She sometimes felt the same way, and has done the same plenty of times in the past. The text message she got from Henry confirmed it. So Dana merely sighed and let the conversation continue. Asae requested that they get Henry so she can have some words with Henry. "Yes, I can do that." Dana said very politely. She didn't have a problem with sending Henry a simple text message. [i]Henry, Asae wishes to clear some things up with you.[/i] She sent the text and looked up at Asae. She wanted to talk to the one eyed woman. "... I can tell the conversation did not go well for Henry. He is one of my closest friends here, I understand him on another level." She knew that Asae would probably leave them then they'll never speak again. [u][i]Nikki Biyung.[/i][/u] Right before Nikki could hear Mark's name, Red finally decided to show himself yet again. She smiled. She felt a [i]little[/i] bit more comfortable around him. A little. "Hey, Red, what's up?" She said to Red. She didn't know if he came over here for any particular reason other than the fact she was here. That worked fine, she was really her only friend. She had literally no idea of the deductions that Mark were making. He then asked if there was anything he should know. This was where she hit a bit of a stump. "Well, we're about to play capture the flag... I don't know what else to tell you." Nikki scratched the back of her neck. But she found a common ground when Mark said this place was crazier than it should be - Though most of that craziness was due to her lovely cousin. "I can agree with you on that, Mark. I thought this place would have [i]some semblance[/i] of sanity." Then another chick came up, one with weird eyes and hair. Nikki looked up at her, and asked herself, [i]Does this mean I'm popular? I never thought I'd be this way.[/i] Nikki noticed that the girl stumbled when she introduced herself, but choose to keep her trap shut. "Hey, I'm Nikki Biyung." With all these people here, Nikki thought that they could actually do something instead of sit on their ass and talk. "So, do you guys want to do something? We are free to practice after all.... But if you don't want to, that's fine. I just don't want to sit here doing nothing."
