[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

[knight125]

Bruce waits for the two students to leave before lowering his world-famous mental barriers. He thinks, "Charles, I know you hear me. Double the time that Kijani Ryane tells you, but don't let her know you're doing it. Thank you." And just like that, the impenetrable gates of Wayne's mental fortress are closed once more.

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe looked up shocked, "hello. Have you decided I am not a bully or a threat then?" She said

Connor leaned against the wall, hands in pockets, waiting for kijani. He wondered if they would still be doing the proofing tonight. They could still proof the papers, even if she could use them. He smiled slightly, pleased with that thought. Strange. He'd really only hung out with Austin, and he hadn't realized he was looking forward to hanging out with someone else, and a girl at that.

"We have not decided. Zack insists that we try to be social so I am trying." Griffin growled not looking at the girl. She made him uncomfortable.

[MarshiestMallow]

"Zack? You speak of yourself in the third person?" Phoebe said, curiously. She shifted slightly, so she wasn't being rude and not facing him. Phoebe just could be rude for long really.

[KatherinWinter]

"Zack is our otherself." Griffin tried to explain. He was not use to talking. That was more Zack's area. "We are not like you. We are more then one person."

[SomeoneSomewere]

Austin remained silent as Kijani spoke, mentally wincing at her words. She was messing with batman. That was never a good thing. He looked at Connor, offering him a nod as he patted his wet shoulder. He looked up to look at Bruce, not looking him directly in the eye. He wiped off his face, trying to stop water from entering his eyes and nose. It was rather annoying needless to say, but he suffered in internal silence.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani wandered over to Connor with a still- terrified look on her face. "I yelled at Batman. Like.. in his face. I'm sure he's kicked a person's ass for much less than that... Oh, god, how dumb can I be?" She let out a weak little groan, before peeking at Connor. "On a scale of one being expelled and ten being put in Arkham, how much trouble do you think I'm in?"

---

Devika thought about it. "I'm not sure... I really just want more control over what I can do. I don't think I'm good enough to play hero." She'd never thought about it, even.

"So there's two of you? Zack is inside somewhere rattling around, while you are speaking? How does that work?" Pheobe asked. She liked to know how things worked.

Bruce leans forward and laces his fingers together. "Austin, do you fully understand why John wanted to fight you?"

I don't think I'm good enough to play hero." She'd never thought about it, even.

Connor despite himself smiled "I think of you were going to be in more trouble, you would already be. Don't worry. Listen, if you still want to we can proof the papers, just cause you can't use them doesn't mean we can't work with them" he started to speak fast, as if he was trying to get all the words out before he lost his nerve.

"Yeah. Maybe we can explore the classes and find one that worksl Kalinda said and suddenly she smiled "of you hold my hand, I can wrap us both in shadows so we can sneak in and out"

[KatherinWinter]

"I am not good with words. But yes. Zack is inside the mind while I am in control. He can see, hear, and feel what I let him. There is also Estella. She is new and insist she isn't about of us. We do not understand us. We are...Multiple personalities. Mother says we coexist. Where most are unaware of the others. I do not fully understand how it works." Griffin struggled to explain.

[MarshiestMallow]

Pheobe laughs "Estella is a person. Or an alien. I'm not sure which. She looks human in any case. She can't talk, but uses telepathy to communicate. Which is probably why you think she is a new personality"

[KatherinWinter]

"No I would not fail Zack by allowing a stranger inside. She must be a part of us. Mother says to be accepting of new personalities, so I accept." Griffin growled.

Kijani lifted her eyebrows, broken out of her state of panic. "R-really? I'd like to work on it, definitely. It'll keep me from going nuts without my powers. Let's get this punishment over with." Even though she really didn't want to be restricted, she knew she was already in a lot of trouble. The best thing she could do was accept her defeat with grace. Though, when Grandmother Waller heard about this... heads were going to roll. One of them would definitely be hers.

Devika raised her eyebrows, quite puzzled. "Wait, you can do what to me?" She blinked in confusion. "Will it hurt?"

[MarshiestMallow]

"Well she is a person, I am not lying" Phoebe said with a shrug, "I don't know how I can convince you that she is as real as you or me. But she is"

"Yes, really" Connor said, pleased. Then he nodded "let's." He started walking again, feeling, actually, scared. He was about to loss the ability to fight. "It sucks you have a week punishment. I can't imagine even going two days

Kalinda smiled and held out a hand. Shadows formed around her hand, "like that. It won't hurt" she promised

[SomeoneSomewere]

Austin took a deep breath, looking him in the eyes. " I understand, mostly sir. I understand that he wanted someone that he thought of worthy physical condition to face him. I think that is the base of his reasoning." He still hasn't been asked why he fought back, but he assumed that Bruce would get to that eventually, and would not push the subject until he was asked.

[KatherinWinter]

Caits said

"Then I will have to but Zack in lock down. This will sadden him." Griffin said with a sigh. He did not leaving Zack locked down for long periods of time. But it sounded like they would have no choice.

[MarshiestMallow]

"I'm sorry" Phoebe said, wishing she hadn't spoke. About Estella now. But Estella could go around with them thinking she was part of them, really. "But...you two could actually speak with her as a person now right?

[Mistress Dizzy]

Caits said
"Yes, really" Connor said, pleased. Then he nodded "let's." He started walking again, feeling, actually, scared. He was about to loss the ability to fight. "It sucks you have a week punishment. I can't imagine even going two days

Kalinda smiled and held out a hand. Shadows formed around her hand, "like that. It won't hurt" she promised

Kijani shrugged slightly. "I've had to go without them before. I know I can survive it." She grinned a bit at him. "But yes, it does suck. It's like a piece of you is gone. But it'll sure remind me not to fight openly in this place." She was better off with a more subtle technique anyway.

---

Devika reached out and hesitantly poked Kalinda's hand with her fingertip, looking like she was afraid the shadows would bite her. "That's a neat trick. Sure, let's try it."

[KatherinWinter]

"We can. I choose not to look in when I am in charge. Too distracting. I can not do my job if I am distracted. Zack will miss her company." Even as Griffin spoke to the girl he was locking Zack within.
