Cecilia thought it over for a minute. "Well... I do like to draw sometimes. I'm not very good, but I've been practicing," her middle and index finger came over her chin as she wondered whether she should share this next one. "... And I enjoy stargazing. I don't have my own telescope or anything. I just find a good spot and (sighs dreamily) I could just spend hours like that," she concluded, smiling though a tad embarrassed that she got a bit carried away.

*James chuckles as he hears Kyle talk, nodding before speaking* "Maybe you can show me a thing or two about drawing, tried to get into it but didn't think I was that good." *Ya, this way he could try to make another friend. Drawing is an art he does enjoy, but hasn't been good at before. Hearing Helen speak about reading, nice to know someone else here enjoys it. Though he finds it hard to find a good book here and there when you are living on the streets. Looking over at Cecilia with a rather soft smile*

@Mangrale

"That actually doesn't sound that bad, maybe it would be fun. Maybe I can join you sometime?" *What got him into asking her is weird to him. He trusts her and so far hasn't shown anyone Neric, though that can change in a matter of days. Part of him wants to trust her as he looks at the ball. Regaining his smile as he looks at her* "Well Cecilia, heads up!" *Tossing the ball over to her, though makes sure he has her attention before doing so to avoid her getting hurt*

Ivy bouced along the path going from one person to the other. She thought they were all boring. I HAVE LOTS OF HOBBIES! I LIKE TO DANCE! I LIKE TO CHASE BUTTERFLIES! I LIKE TO BE ACTIVE! CAN WE FO SOMETHING ACTIVE NEXT? IT'S HARD FOR ME TO BE STILL!"

When James offered to join her for a night of stargazing, Cecilia froze in her seat, her head swiveling to face him. "Oh...! W-well if you want to..." she answered, looking downward at the grass, silently deriding herself, knowing she needed to do better than that. "Sure, I'd like that," she affirmed with a definite smile in his direction. He had been so wonderful to her, and all she did was let her insecurities get in the way. Her eyes peered down sadly for a second. She should never had doubted him. In fact, she determined that once this game is over, she will definitely tell him...

At that moment, James called out to her, tossing the ball to her. Surprised but ultimately appreciating the heads up, Cecilia caught it handily, looking down at the question she would have. "Hmm... 'What is one thing that not many people know about you?'" she read, shifting the ball around between her hands as she thought about it. "I suppose it's that I don't feel as comfortable in crowds as people would think. It's nothing really. I just always felt that way."

Valencia stood not close to anyone of the group. She didn't answer a question instead she was studying the others while she listens closely to what was said. Even though Valencia didn't play a long it didn't seem that the others had noticed it, it made her a little happy since that this is the first time that she had been with so many people away from home. The blue ball was still in mid air, it hasn't move one inch since the game had started. No one else had noticed that it was still there, so she decided to take the ball out of the air without anyone knowing. Maybe one that wasn't so focused on what the other where saying could have noticed Valencia, that she was just watching over the others like a ghost.

"Sounds like a plan." *He smiles back at her, she seemed nervous with the first part. Hopefully she knew it was just him asking, it wasn't like he was trying to force her to do it. He wouldn't do that to her, but he would be thinking along the lines of what stargazing would be like as she speaks the question. Taking a moment to regain his senses after a certain being spoke in his head*

"James, I think she asked what one thing most people wouldn't know about you." *James coming back in from his thoughts as he nods, he had to admit that the Void helped a lot at times. Even when it doesn't seem like much, James would be lost at certain times without it. Guess he still has a lot to learn and to grow up on, even if he was still young. Nodding as he thinks* "Tough one, needed to think on it. But I guess the one thing most people wouldn't know about me is that I'm naturally curious, I like the travel a lot. I mean there is so much out there to learn and explore, why stay in one place? I want to know more. Why I'm on my own as well, never could find a place for myself to stay." *Maybe a bit too much information, he shrugs though as he sits back a bit. Looking at everyone, would people judge him for this? Think he is some travelling vagabond or something cause he can't find a place for himself? Well he said it, now he has to live with the consequences. Maybe he shouldn't have given away the on the road bit, also shows he doesn't have a home himself. Kicking himself mentally for being dull in speaking*

Truthfully, to Cecilia, stargazing had always been a personal experience, one not shared with anyone. Part of the reason was that she never stayed in one place long enough to get to know anyone well enough. Also, over the years, she began to imagine how silly others would think it is, something cliche or otherwise uncool. But as James and everyone have shown many times already, she's been carrying a lot of preconceived notions.

Cecilia cupped her hands over her knees, swaying them side to side in, getting lost in thought. James had been fairly open about his life, even how he doesn't have a home, which would sound like one of the saddest things she'd ever heard even if she didn't just meet him beforehand. Yet he had refused to show Neric when the opportunity arose. Whatever foolish assertions she entertained aside, he did know this was a safe place right? Is he afraid of what anyone here would do or think? If that's it, she may not have helped matters earlier. All the more reason for her to make it up to him before...

In mid thought, she noticed that the ball that was once in the air was gone. The girl that put it there must have taken it down. Cecilia scratched the side of her cheek, a perplexed expression on her face. Wait now that I think about it... I don't believe we've heard from her since then... she thought, annoyed at herself for forgetting about her till now. Should she say something? Did she like not participating? Would she get angry if anyone called her out?... Maybe it's best to stay quiet for now. If the odd girl wanted to participate, it would be up to her.

Helena thought on the question for a bit, letting the others answer before her. "I'm kind of an open book, it's hard to think of something people don't really know about me," she admitted with an almost embarrassed smile. "I guess the thing most people really wouldn't know about me would be my powers, that's my only secret really..." She wished she had something more interesting to say, but she didn't, there was nothing she could do about it.

Kyle shrugged. As the others figured out keeping a secret with Ivy around was difficult. He had barely been able to keep their powers a secret. "I really don't think I have alot of secrets. Not alot of people know that Ivy and I haven't had parents since she was two." It was the only secret other then their powers that he had been able to keep. No one normal could know that they didn't have parents or a guardian. The system would separate them which would be dangerous.

"KYLE SAYS THAT OUR POWERS ARE A SECRET! BUT I DON'T HAVE TO KEEP THAT ONE HERE! HERE I GET TO PLAY WITH MY FIRE!" Ivy announced happily. She crested a fireball in her hand and began to make it change shapes.

As Ivy began to play around with her fire power it attracted the interest of Valencia. with her power she could also manipulate fire and make one appear. How Valencia makes fire appear is simple is you know physics. Fire can be made by moving atoms against each other on a high speed so that heat energy ignites to a little fire. By manipulating the oxygen around it you can control it.

Valencia stopped playing around with her ball and looked at the fire that Ivy had made and that took shapes and changes fast. She studied the fire fist and thought of an image of a little bird. By clearing her mind and just focusing on the fire with the image she tried to make Ivy's fire look like a little bird that is flying around above everyone on a save hight.

@Vampy
Cecilia marveled at Ivy's feats of pyrokinesis, especially after realizing that she wasn't going to accidentally set anything that shouldn't be set on fire well... on fire. However, once the fiery manifestation left her hands, reshaped into a bird and flew around safely above everyone, Cecilia thought that it was still Ivy making it happen. So when she looked again at Valencia, she saw her peering at the flaming bird like everyone else. The young Curtis smiled; the mysterious girl didn't seem like such a loner now. Maybe the first step for the girl to feel comfortable and make friends here would be to participate. Cecilia gulped, but ultimately adopted a determined expression. The girl may very well dislike her for doing this, but that's a risk she'll just have to accept. "Hey um, Valencia?" she called out to her, a tad loudly to overcome the general sounds of astonishment from the other campers at the blazing spectacle. "It's your turn, alright?" she stated while motioning with the ball to visually convey that she'll be throwing it to her. Acting quickly before her nerves ran out, Cecilia lightly tossed the question covered ball to Valencia.

Still focusing on the fire bird to keep it flying in the air, Valencia's name was called. She wanted to look in to the direction of were the voice came from but the bird would follow the direction of her look. Before Valencia had found the person who called her a ball came close to her. The person had made a move that broke her focus. To catch the ball with her hands was it a little late. The fire bird disappeared into nothing and the ball had stopped right in front of her. If Valencia had noticed the ball a second later it would have hid her.

The surprise of the ball that had been thrown at her made her noticeable for the others. This was the first time that this had happened to her. Valencia shook er head and read the ball. "What is your favorite flavor of jellybean?" Valencia read outloud. "I prefer a lollipop, but if I have to chose a jellybean then Dr. Pepper would be my favorite flavor."

This was a rather unique question to James, him having to take a moment for it. Scratching his head and looking around, guess now is as good as anytime to answer. "I guess if I had to choose, it would be a fight for me between French Vanilla and Very Cherry. Both of those are rather good." Nodding as he smiles, Neric staying quiet for this. The Void not having much of a say in favorites of flavor, in fact it didn't have much in taste buds even if it ate anything.

Helena jokingly stuck out her tongue and shook her head. She wasn't a big fan of sweets unless they were chocolate. "Can I just pass on the jelly beans?" she asked, still shaking her head. Then, as to not be a poor sport, she added, "If there are any chocolate jelly beans can I just vote for those?"

"Participation isnt optional. It is one thing if you dont know they answer. It is unacceptable to simply chose not to answer or participate. Valencia we expect you to answer the same questions that the others answered. And yes Helena there are chocolate jelly beans. Jelly beans come in just about any flavor you can imagine and some you would probably never think of."" The counselors explained.

Valencia didn't know what to say when the counsellors spoke. She didn't expect them to notice her, but she couldn't really expect that they wouldn't. She knew that she had to participate, it wasn't that she didn't wanted to but she hasn't been around so much people. Valencia nodded to let the counsellors know that she understood them.

Cecilia was moderately unnerved when Valencia intercepted the ball via telekinesis. But said girl didn't seem openly dismayed afterwords as she read and answered the question, which though peculiar, was sort of a breath of fresh air in light of the probing or personal question it could have been instead. She knew it was illogical, but Cecilia still felt a little responsible for Valencia being called out by the twins. She sighed, looking up and finding that the flaming bird had mysteriously disappeared. Reasoning that there's no use in worrying about what she couldn't control, she contemplated the question, having not eaten jellybeans very often over the years, but remembering a standout when she had. "For me, I have to say watermelon. Especially during the summer," she said, smiling in her reminiscence.

Kyle looked at the ground as the other's answered. Some of the answers were instant. Others took some time. He was curious why Helena didn't want to answer the question. In fact she hadnt really answered ant of the questions. He didnt know how to answer. He was sort of ashamed to answer. "I really can't answer that. I've never actually had jelly beans."

"KYLE SAYS I CAN'T HAVE CANDY!HE SAYS THAT CANDY WOULD MAKE ME UNCONTROLLABLE!"Ivy told them. She had been curious about such treats but her brother refused to allow her to try any.

Aki was running he missed the bus for the camp and had no way of getting there without running. He knew basically where it was so he should be fine. he had been running to the camp for a while he didn't had enough money to fly to the camp area so he had to find other ways the main was getting rides from random people but now he was int the general area and didn't want to use a random stranger in fear of what they'd say once they got to the camp. He soon arrived at the camp gate. he didn't know where to head though. so Aki being the way he was he just decided to explore the camp until he found someone. he was amazed at the camp it looked like any old camp ground with cabins. he soon came across a group of people around a fire pit. Aki then approached the group with his bag over his shoulder. "Hi i just got here can tell me where i might be able find the camp counselors?" He didn't ask anyone in particular i just asked the whole group since any of them may know where to look.

Ivy giggled at the new arrivals questions. How did he not see the counselors standing by the fire pit. She thought it was obvious that the twins were in charge. They were noticibly older then everyone else. She bounced over to the boy. She continued to bounce around him like a rabbit on a sugar high. HELLO! MY NAME IS IVY! I CAN CONTROL FIRE! THE COUNSELORS ARE OVER THERE!"
