Danny Kingston
Location: Dorm Hallway
Skills: Pyrokinesis


Leah started booking it, walking with all the determination Danni knew she had. “Maybe if t'is super'ero stuff doesn't work out, I can be a motivational speaker.” Danni mused, skipping along with Leah. He got Leah over her fear of making plans, maybe he could get others over their fears! He really should write that down but if superheroics didn't work out, Danni would probably eat himself into a coma and die of dehydration from crying.

However, his grim future was interrupted by Princess and he frowned at the thought of Diana of all people alone in their dorms. Like, they didn't really get along so was she trying to prank them? All he did was offer to light her arrows up, but he didn't actually do it when she said not to (which he should get a gold star for impulse control, thank you very much!) So he didn't know what she was getting revenge for.

Still, not like they really had anything to hide but they'd have to make sure everything was as it should be. Dee once threatened to swap all his hair product with generic 5 in 1 garbage after he'd deleted one of Dee's save files by accident and Danni had checked everything obsessively for weeks. Danni didn't think Diana would, but who knew what nefarious things someone sneaking into another person's Dorm would do. What is she changed out his hair dye?

He was halfway through a response, tongue stuck out as he focused on typing and walking behind Leah, when several things happened very quickly. Firstly, his phone buzzed. Secondly, he bit his tongue and tossed his phone in surprise. Finally, he felt fire boiling under his skin and in the brief moment where he was scrambling for his phone, cursing the sudden taste of copper, and reeling over Dee’s text, he slipped up and fire erupted from him in the dorm hallway.

“Merde! Danni swore, jumping approximately fifteen feet in the air as the floor and the wall next to him was suddenly burning. He stared down the hall where Dee stood with Percy's arm wrapped around his waist and honestly, Danni felt…

Betrayed.

For the second time in as many weeks, Danni felt his life burning to the ground. Yes, some of it was certainly the fact that Danni had set the dorms on fire and was currently standing next to it, but mostly it was because once again, Danni'd lost something. Dee and Danni had been two halves on the same coin, attached at the hip, sharing everything together. They shared parents (Maxie and Benji were basically his parents too), friends, clothes, games, food. Literally their entire life. And now there was something Danni couldn't share, didn't want to share, and he felt replaced. Dee found someone who could do more with him, do something Danni wouldn't, and Danni felt like he’d be seeing Percy next to Dee more often and he’d be left alone.

He reached out to grab the flames, but he froze. The hunger in the fire, the glass case pressing in, Arcade’s laughter creeping up on him, and he couldn’t bring himself to do anything. What would happen if it got worse? What happened if he did burn everything down again, just like home?

“Help.” Danni whimpered, trembling where he was frozen in fear.
