[u][i]Deborah Lillian Termellio, & Shannon Jacqueline Balore.[/i][/u] [hider= Delphic - Colours of the Day][youtube]-dnhr9xAX-M[/youtube][/hider] Deborah lifted her head and her eyes peered over to Shannon and this over sized newcomer. They were talking through messages written ([b]Ben is mute[/b]). Suddenly, their interactions interested her, and she wished to learn more. She entered detective-mode again, staring at the pair ([b]Ben's intentions are good, he came over because he thought she was upset[/b]) with unmatched attentiveness and detail. With her focus on Ben ([b]New student[/b]). She wanted to search for anything she could use to make a connection with. To Abe, it would look like she was in a trance, not responding to anything, just standing there watching. From what Deborah gotten from Ben, he was more of the gentle-giant type. The kind that you'd expect to be a big meat-head, but actually has a heart. [i]Oh, how sweet. I love it when we have one less power hungry jackass running around.[/i] Deborah thought to herself with a smile. She watched as Ben created a piece of cotton out of no where ([b]His ass?[/b]), then she narrowed her narrowed her eyes, trying to make a deduction ([b]Ben possesses a power that grants him control and creation of plants[/b]). It made Deborah laugh a bit, the first thing she did since she started reading Ben and Shannon's interaction. Of course Shannon would talk to someone who could do- ([b]Pheromones, Deborah[/b]) [i]What? [/i]Deborah immediately thought to herself the second her power told her something was wrong. Was it Kristen? They needed to have a talk about what Deborah said during the CTF match. Deborah quickly scanned the room, like she was looking for a friend. And that [i]friend[/i] secreting the pheromones turned out to be Vespera. [i]Oh, fuck, her? What the hell does she want...?[/i] ([b]She is attempting to enter your game, she is using her pheromones to achieve this[/b]) [i]Oh. Fuck that.[/i] One person Deborah didn't want to talk to, like ever, was Vespera. That woman was a sociopath to it's fullest degree, and everything Deborah got from her was something malicious. She briefly considered moving to the furthest pool table, but that would be too blatant, and what's stopping her from coming over to that one? The best Deborah could do was ignore her, she'll lose interest and go away soon enough ([b]Or invite herself over anyway[/b]). Yet another boy decided to walk up to Shannon... He looked vaguely familiar, like, an older version of someone she's seen before. It would take a little examination before she figured him out. What was worse of all was that her power didn't work on him. Which made her all the more curious about him. She began staring at Jason. She felt a [i]little[/i] bad about ignoring Abe like this, but her insatiable curiosity was overwhelming. It probably looked like she was checking out other boys. She watched them, hoping to get a name. Of course if that didn't work, she would walk over there and ask him for his name herself. Which meant, for now, it was up to Shannon. [i]Oh boy, how will tall, dark, and[/i] handsome [i]entertain me today?[/i] Shannon tipped her glasses forward, and gave Jason a glare. He was definitely Asian, tall, muscular, a real [i]pretty boy[/i]. [i]Oh boy, don't we just attract[/i] all [i]the 'hunks'.[/i] Bleh. Shannon wasn't interested in looks. More of a capable mind, and a personality that didn't annoyed her... And apparently Jason is mute too. Fucking terrific, maybe that whole exchanging messages thing with Ben attracted him. Jason showed her a message written on whiteboard, asking her what was going on. She gave him a look that just said 'What?' with body language. Because wasn't it obvious? God, some people need things spelled out for them. Just to be a smart-ass, Shannon took off her glasses, and showed them to Jason, turning them a bit so that he can see them from all angles. "... You might need some glasses." She followed it up with some laughter as she slid her glasses back on. At the corner of her eyes, she spotted Vespera not too far away. She narrowed her eyes at Vespera, before rolling her eyes. Dressed up like a slutty spider. Perhaps Shannon could teach her how to dress [i]properly[/i], and not like a penis receptacle, later on? Though, the second Red walked up, Shannon's line of thought was interrupted. All of her thoughts were venomous. Even after [i]admitting[/i] to murder, he is acting like everything is fine? Nothing [i]irritated[/i] the red haired girl more than that, she suspected that he was a sociopath. Shannon shot Red a death glare almost immediately, she stood straight up off the pool table, mean as a rattlesnake, "Walking in here all casual, Red?" She adjusted her glasses, not stopping to take her eyes off Red. She was ready to defend herself, and Deborah, against him should he attack. "Don't take it personal when I say I do not wish to associate myself with [i]murderers[/i]." She crossed her arms, staring Red dead in the eyes. Since Red was fine with casually admitting it earlier, he shouldn't have a problem with repeating it. Oh dear, Red showed up and Shannon is going all defensive. Deborah herself would have recommended that she didn't say 'murderer' out loud when that was not the case... Especially in earshot of Vespera. Deborah had to act now, she pulled away from Abe, quickly saying, "Sorry, gotta handle this." Before she moved over to Shannon. She had wished she had that telepathic link up, that way she can explain. She put a hand on her shoulder, pulling her around so that they're looking each other face to face, "Remember, Silkworm, there is more to this than what meets the eye." She pleaded, "It isn't what you think it is." "Hm, really?" Shannon asked, crossing her arms. She respected Deborah, and her deductions, since her girlfriend knew even more about people than Shannon ever could. "What could it be then...?" She asked. "Umm..." Deborah stopped herself from spouting it out. "I think it'll be best if we discuss this behind closed doors. How about it, Red? Mind coming with us so we can get all of this sorted out." --- [u][i]Theresa Sindel Obott.[/i][/u] 'How long?' Uh... What? Theresa didn't understand the question. It was pretty vague. "You'll have to be a bit more specific, ma'am." She answered, pretty politely. Though, Quinn was quick enough to change the subject. Heh, Quinn was a pretty cool person. Had a good enough sense of humor to realize what Tess was doing, and Tess personally found her rather attractive. A fit body, and somewhat androgynous? Yum. But, for now, she was going to keep (half) joking about the flirts and pick up lines. "There, now you got it!" She complimented, clapping her hands. The joking would get old after a little while, so Theresa had to find an appropriate topic change. Well, there was that big jungle trip Henry spoke of and... Fuuuuuuck. Theresa probably missed it. She isn't even ready in the slightest. No bow, no boots... Theresa could catch up, but she wasn't going to leave her new lady-friend behind. "Soo... are you new here?" Theresa started off, "Have you seen that beautiful jungle the school is surrounded by? A friend of mine is hosting a little trip into it, and he said bring as many people as possible..." Tess trailed off, "So hows about it, Quinn, wanna come? There's so much to see."
