Paulina sighed heavily. [color=springgreen][i]Dammit, how stupid can you get.[/i] “Please excuse me for a moment,”[/color] she smiled sweetly, [color=springgreen]”I need to deal with a small child.”[/color] 

Standing up, Paulina turned around and planted herself directly in front of the blonde boy who had spoken, nearly nose to nose with him as she looked at him like a mother looking at a small child who had broken something. [color=springgreen]”I don’t recognize you, so you must be a freshman,”[/color] she hissed, [color=springgreen]”So I will forgive you just this once. But if you [b]ever[/b]”[/color] she leveled her finger at him, [color=springgreen]”threaten someone like that again, I will not hesitate to report you to the faculty [b]AND[/b] find a way to lock down your power completely. I can do it too, it wouldn’t be that hard. This entire situation was an [b]accident[/b]. He acted out of anger, and I’ve forgiven him. [b]YOU[/b], however, have made a deliberate choice to antagonize him when the situation was already resolved, so as far as I am concerned, [b]YOU[/b] are worse than [b]HIM[/b]. Just because you have powers doesn’t mean that you get to dole out “justice” wherever you see fit. So don’t. Be. Stupid.”[/color]

Having said her piece, she sighed and pressed the fingers and thumb of one hand to her temples.[color=springgreen]”Ash, it’s fine. I’m okay, so please don’t threaten him, it doesn’t help things. Please?”[/color] Paulina raised her hands, speaking louder so that the entire group could hear her. [color=springgreen]”Come on guys, it’s a new year! Let’s not start things off by being unpleasant, so break it up. Now, I think I recall hearing that there is food in there, and I’m starving.”[/color]

Bending over Adrian, she helped him to his feet, ignoring the sharp chill in his hand. [color=springgreen]”Tell you what. When I’m not in classes, I’m usually either in my dorm or in the library. Drop by any time, my door’s always open.”[/color] She paused for a moment. [color=springgreen]”Unless I’m sleeping. Then please knock first. But other than that, we’ll see what we can sort out for you, okay?”[/color] Leaning in closer, she let her voice drop to a whisper. [color=springgreen]”As for the other stuff, if you ever want to talk, that works too.”[/color] 

Giving Adrian one last smile, she drew away and proceeded to practically drag Ashleigh and Vedika into the gym by their arms. [color=springgreen]”Thank you, guys, for trying to help back there.”[/color]
