[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

"Clearly better then you. What's up?" Connor asked "you seemed deep in thought"

Kalinda shrugged, shifting her food around on her plate "sure, free country right?"

[twave]

"Yeah. I'm fine with that too." She takes her plate and heads to a table where they could sit.

”That’s just it. I’m as destructive, if not more so, as the Hulk. I don’t and can't take pride in something that can hurt innocent people and friends. What if I fought Kijani, or Katherin? What about you, b, what if?” “b” being short for baby, or babe.

John picks up a bowl of shrimp scampi then sits down with the two girls. "So ladies, what do you think of the Academy? Pretty great, right?"

Anthony shrugs and replies, "You've learned to have more control of your powers, haven't you? I'm sure that they wouldn't allow a fight that could seriously hurt a student. I don't know who I'd fight. I don't have any offensive powers, and I can't just talk at my opponent and hope they decide to surrender."

Devika nodded and smiled a bit. "That's good advice... And yes, if you feel like showing me a move or two, I certainly wouldn't mind it." So far, she knew how to throw a punch and guard... Theoretically, anyway.

"Wonderful." Katherin clapped her hands. "I like to help others when I can. Fighting theory is great but it can't replace hands on teaching. I won't say I'm an expert, but I can show you a few things."

Kijani immediately made her emotions withdraw, putting a smile on. She realized she was being far too vulnerable. Maybe that was what Anthony wanted? "Oh, nothing you need to bother yourself with. I suppose... I was just thinking about getting my powers back in a few days."

Devika nodded a bit. "That would be great." She smiled vaguely. "My parents run a law office, so I grew up with practice debates rather than any sort of fighting."

[Dioxide]

Sue

”We have been practicing, yeah. They pay extra attention to me. Kind of cool, huh? Imagine if I’d been a villain. Ooh the horror.” she shuddered, partially to the cold, and the thought of being so malicious and apathetic to others with the extent of her abilities.

”I’m sure you’ll do fine! You’re smart! I’m sure you outsmart anyone of us into submission, coupling your tall frame.”

[MarshiestMallow]

"The academy is okay" Kalinda said, "Perfect for a bunch of kids running around with powers Mostly, Kalinda had wanted to come here because she had hoped it would be a place where she could finally be accepted. She was unsure if that had been a correct assumption or not

"right, nearly been a week" Coonor said, wondering how o much could have happened in one week. Was this what it was like to be a teenager that communicated with the outside world? "Then you can really test the papers out!"

[twave]

"Well I think it's awesome. I'm discovering all these different things I can change into." It sounded like a good deal to her. She'd been so excited about that that she'd forgotten the other reason she'd came. But it would pop back into her head eventually.

[KatherinWinter]

Mistress Dizzy said
Devika nodded a bit. "That would be great." She smiled vaguely. "My parents run a law office, so I grew up with practice debates rather than any sort of fighting."

"Growing up among the X-men one has to know atleast basic defense. There is almost always a sparring match going on." Katherin explained. "I couldn't win a debate if my life depended on it. Which is why none of my goals need that skill."

[MarshiestMallow]

Kalinda couldn't help but smile at Maxine's excitement, "Maybe I'll keep you around just for the happiness you exert" She said to her, as she tried some of the salad on her plate, "Maybe it will rub off on me"

[knight125]

Anthony smiles and chuckles mentally as he thinks, "Smart is a bit of an understatement, my dear." Instead of speaking his thoughts, he decides it would be prudent to reply humbly, "What good are brains against someone who can freeze me before I have a chance to use my brain? That's just one example, just about everyone in our class could take me out if I'm not given the chance to prepare."

John takes a few bites out of his meal before asking, "Have you thought about what you're going to do after you graduate?"

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani's false smile widened slightly into something more real. "I can't wait to see how they bend. With all that coating, I'll probably have to put a little more heft behind them. Shouldn't be too much harder, though." She looked Connor in the eyes. "Remind me to thank you... more properly later." A very mild smirk quirked her lips before she dropped the eye contact.

Devika raised her eyebrows. "X-Men, huh?" She paused, thinking. "What.. what was that like? Growing up around others like you?" She'd had to learn to hide her powers since early childhood. For her own protection, in many ways.

"Awesome because no one looks at you funny if it starts snowing around you. But also very stressful. Everyone has these high expectations of what you should be able to do. I can't tell you how painful it can be to see the disappointment in their eyes when you don't met their expectations." Katherin explained. She shook her head sadly. It was hard to think about those disappointed looks.

[twave]

"Graduate? No... what is that?" Her lack of knowledge was showing. She had come to get to know who she was. And that got her thinking. "I didn't come here to enroll actually. I just kind of went with it. But I think I'll stay now.

[MarshiestMallow]

This actually caused Kalinda to laugh, "I haven't thought much pass actually having a full list of classes to go to" She said, "let alone after graduation. I asume graduation is when we can go on as supers, right? You didn't come to graduate? Why did you come then?"

"Uh" Connor could feel his cheeks heat in a blush, and Austin chuckled. Lost for words, Connor fell back what he new, "Well, I thought about actualyl making paper with the proofing properties in place, but that would have been patchy at best. You should be okay with the coating though. Better then laminating them at least"

[Dioxide]

Sue

”Then why not try something your dad did? He made a suit to fight Superman, so why not learn something from the past? Even make some weapon that disabled all our powers or something? Spooky and evil and all.” she grinned, her plates spotless, immaculate, scraped of all existence of food.

She turned around from her seat and, with her phone, took a picture of her and Anthony, pausing to wait for him to know before she took the picture.

Devika nodded a little. "I know about disappointment. My parents haven't said it to me straight, but... I'm pretty sure they're waiting for me to wise up and go to law school."

Kijani nodded. "Laminate is hard to work with. Somehow the plastic fiddles with my senses." She was fighting back her own blush. She'd never been so forward with a boy before, and she'd done it more to distract herself from her thoughts than anything else.

Anthony shakes his head, "Why do as my father did? He never succeeded in his main goal." He then laughs, "Why are people at this school constantly calling me evil?" Anthony smiles for the camera, then right as before Sue presses the button, he puts one hand under her chin and turns her face, allowing him to kiss her as the picture is taken. He then eats a little bit of his soup and signs, "I just realized that I never answered your question earlier. If you'd like to drive my car, you're more than welcome to, you'll just have to tell me which one."

John answers them both, "You're basically considered a graduate when your teachers agree that they don't have anything more to teach you, or you turn 24"

[MarshiestMallow]

"Maybe because it doesn't give direct access to the paper" Connor said, letting his thoughts roll around in his head, "Lamination isn't exactly natural, but paper is:

"So I could be here seven years?" Kalinda said with a grimace, pausing in eating
