Phoebe listened to him talk, quite happy to. She looked down when he said about control plants must be cool. "That's the thing, they're everywhere. It's easy. I do however seem to have trouble making apples. Always turn out as pineapples" she admitted, "not that I've had much practice" she shrugged, looking up

Ryan laughed. "I love pineapples! What luck!" He said smiling. He did really like pineapples. Sure cutting them was a nightmare but hey. Whatever. He looked at her. It was nice to have someone to talk to. She was different. That was the word for her. Different. He liked it. "I was not the speedster you see now on day one. Heck I still trip and fall sometimes. I have a lot of work to do if I'm ever going to be like my father. Huge shoes to fill. You are lucky. No family pressure. I'm sort of jealous. " He said quietly. Yes he could be quiet.

Jack

"You know I would have beat you. I'm like a spider. I live for climbing and such. " He boasted. "So Kit what about your family? Any siblings?" He asked curious to how this guy lived. They were similar in personality he found.

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe was silent for a time "I would give anything just to know who my parents are. Just to be able to say, my mothers Pamela Isley! To even know who my father is-" she stopped, eyes widening. She had just spoken her mothers name allowed. Well, she wasn't a kid anymore. She could, and would protect herself. Mostly "you have know idea how lucky you are, to have your dad. To be able to learn from him..." She sighed, "but, let's get off this sad stuff. When did you first use your power?"

Kijani raised her eyebrows and lowered her book, flashing a quick unbidden smile at Gabriel. This wasn't the first time she'd forgotten food. "I.. ah... was going to eat later." In truth she'd tucked away a wrapped sandwich in her inner suit pocket, planning to eat it later in peace. "But I appreciate the gesture." She took what he'd offered her, unwrapped a corner and took a bite. "...and to answer your question, yes. I read a good book, and the rest of the world sort of... leaves." Which is why she never realized she'd accidentally snubbed Ben. She literally had not heard him.

[ArekTheAbsolute]

Kit

Kit nodded to the guy sitting down calling Jack his brother
"Naw, no siblings that i know of, I'd ask the same but," he stopped as he gestured at Ben. "Though i am still curious about your own family. You've said that you're dad is spider-man but not who your mother is."

"I've had that happen a few times," Gabriel said before taking a sip of his soda. "It's easy to get drawn into something you enjoy anyway, so there's no question as to why. What book are you reading by the way?"

Gabriel did actually enjoy reading now and then, though he mostly stuck to a few particular authors and only read new books when he was sure he'd actually like the ideas the book claimed to have.

[Avanhelsing]

Jack
Jack grumbled. He hated being called little. "Come on, Ben! I'm only ten minutes younger than you! Not exactly little!" He complained."Also what the heck were you doing? Getting hurt like that!" Jack said clearly worried. He was allowed to worry about his brother right? Sure Ben was technically older but that was beside the point. "I was just telling Kit here about that girl I met. Sue. A bit odd but there is something about her." He mused. "Oh introductions. Kit meet my 'older' brother Ben. Ben meet Kit. " he said pointing making the introductions. "Yah our mother is Black Cat. Though I don't think either of us have her powers." He wondered of he would.

Ryan
Pamela Isley. He knew enough villains to know she was Poison Ivy. That explained a lot. Not that he did not like her because of it. "Alright. I'm sorry. " He said softly. "I remember I was about five. I wanted a cookie. My dad said I used my speed to grab it for. His hand. He started training me the day after. What about you? When did you first use your powers?" He asked trying to get the happy tone back.

Kijani showed him the cover while keeping her place in the book with her finger. "Real Murders. Charlaine Harris. It's a murder mystery with an amatuer sleuth librarian. Not exactly high literature. But sometimes I like to take it easy, and read something I don't have to analyze, you know?" She wasn't sure if he did know, or if she was just prattling on without making sense.

Despite herself, Phoebe smiled, "five and a half, I knew there was a possibility I would develop powers. My mother she sent a letter to me on my fifth birthday you see. The caretakers took the whole orphanage out for a feild trip, something fun. We went to a park, we were playing around, hide and seek, you know? I was hiding, suddenly this ball came at me. I threw my hands up, closed my eyes expecting pain...when it didnt bappen, I opened my eyes, there were these vines, holding the ball. .no one could figure out what happened, or now it did. I read everything I could about my motner, everything, trying to figure out how to use it"

[ArekTheAbsolute]

Kit

Kit nodded to Ben again as they were formerly introduced.
"Black cat, huh? That actually makes me curious, when did you find out you had superheroes for parents?" He asked his interest piqued.

[Avanhelsing]

Something about her backstory made him rather sad. She never had the family he did. Still a family forcing its ideas on you was better than no family. "It must have been scary. You know finding out about your powers with out anyone to help you. I'll try to help with the physical aspect. It might help you your powers. " He said as he watched the pizza come out. When it was set before them he grabbed a slice. He had no idea what kind she had gotten.

Jack
He honestly could not remember. It had been so long ago he had forgotten. Or maybe it was more. He had no idea. "Honestly dude I have no idea when. I can't remember but my memory is terrible. " He said scratching his head slightly embarrassed.

"Hm... actually yes. I typically read old Greek and Medieval stuff when I get bored and am feeling philosophical. Most people would just take the stories as typical legends, but what they fail to get is that they're often written to convey a message or an important question. Falls from glory, a loss of everything, catharsis is intriguing in general."

Gabriel looked at the title once again, and then back to Kijani. He hadn't gotten her name yet, but he was surprised that she had been willing to keep up a conversation with him. Most people wouldn't even bother, kind of like that Phoebe and Ryan couple he met earlier.

"I'm Gabriel by the way. You are?"

Something like this was a first, Gabriel rarely went out of his way to do these things.

[MarshiestMallow]

"I u derstand why my mother did it, it wouldnt have been safe. I just dont understand why, now that kid anymore, why I cant even meet her, why I cant even know my fathers name. It wasnt so bad, growing up in an orohanage...I just had to make sure not to expose myself" she took a slice of pizza, plucking a piece of sausage of it idly, "I had a good cnildhood despite it all. And now I am here. And today has been a great day, " she smiled, "i'll take all the help I can get"

[ArekTheAbsolute]

Kit

Kit smirked at that finding it a bit funny that this guy who had been touting his abilities came up a bit short in this one aspect.
"Ah well, not really that important." he said finishing off his hotdog and trying his best to let the memory comment slide on by.

[Dioxide]

Sue

Silence was all but ordinary and common, unwelcomingly accepted to Sue. The plastic cutlery pierced with much resistance into the hard food, the spork and knife shimmering tan – bending but held strength. Her notes and stationary were placed next to her. This was her assumed seat for the upcoming class, whatever it was. Her schoolbag was also placed, underneath her chair.

The room was brightly-lit, windows that shone a casual sheen of warmth and light, the Sun at an angle not too aggressive to the classrooms. Air-conditioning removed the still air and hence the presence of the aroma of her food. The bodyguards, since then, moved out of the classroom, their footsteps echoed around the classroom, indicated that they’d move away from the door. If it was made too obvious of Sue’s whereabouts, she could get caught easily, guards overtaken in one place. So they were spread out evenly and strategically for her protection. What people must think of her...

Anthony

Anthony casually follows Sue into room 302 and coughs slightly to get her attention.

He might as well have screamed, as the cough was just as loud as if someone had yelled out from across the room.

Quickly, she held her finger to her mouth, gesturing the tall man to keep quiet. She knew it was a rude gesture, and it was her go-to warning. She hoped he knew sign.

”Hi”, with a worried smile.

[MarshiestMallow]

Conner grabbed them a table at the cafeteria, thinking for the first time he actually had people to sit with, and wasnt that just strange? "Other here guys!" He said to Kyra, her friend and Austin. Yes, it was really strange he thought. Friends. Sure, he had gaming friends, but real life friends? Amazing.

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin

Katherin was glad she wasn't the only one with agility problems. She was pretty sure she could get through the course without hurting herself. When the guy who showed her got distracted Katherin went to take her turn. She barely managed the wall. Katherin tripped several times, but was able to catch herself before receiving a major injury. Once she completed the course Katherin saw that her time sucked. No child of a X-man should get 10 minutes on a obstical course. Especially one that was pretty normal. Oh we'll that's what training was for right?

[SomeoneSomewere]

Austin called over to Conner," be there in a second!" He quickly walked over to get some food, grabbing mostly meat and a drink then heading over to the table and sitting down. He had forgotten he was still without a shirt.

Kijani's small smile widened considerably at Gabriel's talk of legends. "Right, right! They weren't stories for stories sake, they were lessons, warnings... even before the written word, there was the story." She paused, and actually went slightly red. She was going to start babbling like a nerd if she didn't watch herself. "I'm Kijani." She offered her hand to shake, across the table.

[MarshiestMallow]

When Austin sat down, Conner quickly grabbed food for himself returning and sitting back down, now at a loss for what to say orndo

Ryan smiled. It had been a wonderful day. He had met her. That counted for a lot. "Yah I have about 3 others speedsters who all think they know better than me. Who knows. You might meet him here. If you are lucky. " he said wistfully. He hoped she would meet him. He was hopeless. "You know I think this has been a great day. Better than I expected. " He confessed and took a bite of his pizza. "I met a nice girl. She can stand being around me. Not a terrible day at all. " he said his face turning beet red.
