[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

I won't leave again"Phoebe said, "For now, this is my home, for however long we are here for" She finished eating. She enjoyed being needed. She just never knew how much she needed from those around her too. "If and when I choose to ask my father questions, will you come with me?" She took a bit of chocolate, popping it in her mouth

Kyra walked around, looking for Connor, or Austin, or both, whatever. She ran a hand through her blue hair, sighing. "I heard something happened to Austin, but it does me no good until I can find out from him....." she mumbled to herself.

Kijani was taking up a good portion of a lunch table with various plates of food. Sandwiches, soups, salads, desserts, she even had a few drinks. She was feasting like a queen, and the box with the jian nestled safely inside lay on the chair beside her.

Ryan breathed out happily. He was scared she would leave. "I'm glad. " He said just watching her eat. "Of course I'll be there. For support. Course he will hate me for it..." Ryan said shivering at the expected Batglare. "So any ideas for what the questions would be?"

Devika's explanation made some sense. But really, what were they trying to do? "I don't see how putting possible heroes and villains together in one place is a smart idea. They make this place and train them no matter what." Laughing slightly 533 hands Devika the page back. "They're going to make a much bigger war than they ever had. Places like where I come from are taking the opportunity to prepare. We're the ones that are going to suffer their weakness. It'll be hilarious."

Devika nodded slowly. "Hilarious. Right." She took her paper and folded it up again, tucking it away. "I've gotta go or I'll be late. Bye!" She rushed off to her Superhero/Civilian communications class. It was small, but there were more older students there. Many times there was lively debate and always a good discussion.

(I honestly can't remember what my characters were doing, so I'm going to teleport them to the cafeteria. If they were interacting with anyone, let me know and we can finish their conversation via PM)

Anthony, Ben, and John walk into the cafeteria within a few minutes of each other, each grabbing their preferred meals, then sitting at empty tables.

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe grinned "even as a kid, I never did understand why good people seem scared of him" she said, "yeah, he's a powerful prescence but...you know where you stand with him" she let her smile fade, thinking, "well, I guess I just want to know how good and bad can make a kid. Why, when others have been able to grow up with at least one of their parents, why I ended up in the orphanage. I mean, I understand, but...I don't. Why when the school was formed, the truce given....he didn't came and get me" she shrugged "that's all"

Kalinda managed to stay away during class, and even managed to ask a few questions. She made her way to get some food, half starved as well as tired, piling a tray with whatever food she could eat, sitting down at the first table she could and starting
To eat

[Avanhelsing]

"You have no idea how scary a Batglare is. " Ryan said joking. Trying to change the subject. "So Phoebe why did you agree to that first date? I've always wanted to know that. " He asked curious. Why had she given him a chance?

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe blinked, "because I liked you. Because you made me laugh. I could ask why you asked me out. But the simple fact is, I liked you and enjoyed spending time with you, because you were friendly in a whole crowd of people"

[SomeoneSomewere]

Austin walked, feeling a blush crawl up to his cheeks as he mentioned them getting along well but at first thought he was in the clear due to his fur. Then he remembered he was still wearing the amulet and he quickly removed it, clearing his throat. He liked being able to hide that little response to things. He said," she is nice to be around." He looked around slightly then smelled, rapidly followed by spotting Kyra. He said," Kyra!" Anything to distract Connor from the topic of Maxine. He wasn't sure how he felt about her yet.

[MarshiestMallow]

Connor chuckled. Ten minutes with Austin could make anyone feel better. He automatically looked around the cafeteria, spotting kijani attacking several plates of food.

"Alright. So I'll just go tell her then" after making sure Austin was going to be okay, he started towards kijani. He sat down next to her, and the fact that she was attacking the food probably made it easier to speak.

"I can accept I don't know everything about you. But you have to accept you don't know everything about me. So. You can try and push me away, but you will find I am an unmovable forces when I want to be" he spoke softly, in a matter of fact tone, slightly wobbly as his confidence weave red briefly at the beginjng, becoming steady as he continued to speak.

"Funny thing is that's exactly why I asked you out that day. I knew no one and then you. " Ryan said breathing for a second. "It's lucky we met. But honestly Phoebe I'm glad we are together. " He said smiling. "Well I did have one more thing. There was this dance after you left and we never got to dance. So if you want to. " He said as music started up from a speaker. Soft music. He stood up and offered her his hand. "Shall we dance?"

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani was caught with a mouthful of brownie lava cake in her mouth, and she wasn't about to run away from her food. She stared up at Connor, wide eyed, and listened to him the whole way through. Even after she took a long drink, she was still rather speechless. Finally, she patted the chair beside her. "Sit down." Once he was beside her, she sighed softly. "Connor." She reached out and held his hand. "I... may be rather hasty in my assumptions about other people." She was gazing into his eyes, and he could likely see the traces of fatigue there. "For me, everyone has to fit into a box. So I know what to expect, so I know what to do in return. When people don't fix in the boxes I have, well... I'm..." Now her gaze went distant. "...lost." And when she was lost, she was scared...

[MarshiestMallow]

"I'm glad too" Phoebe grinned and took his hand, standing, she slid off her shoes, to feel the earth beneath her feet as they danced.

"I've never asked, can you dance?" She asked, stepping off the picnic blanket, smiling happily

Connor took a moment to answer, giving her hand a squeeze"people are unpredictable. Just when you think you have them in a box, they will slip out, shock and surprise you. But yes, the fundamentals can fit into a box. Ah hell, you can't predict what people will do, can't predict everything, and for the love of god, don't tell Austin I said that or he won't shut up that he was right. You're tired. I can see that, and do you know how unbelievably frustrating it is that you won't let me help? I don't need to know everything to help"

[Avanhelsing]

"Of course I can dance!" Ryan said holding her gently. He slowly began to move in time with the music. "I'm a great dancer. " Ryan said laughing slightly. "I bet I'm a better dancer than you. " He rocked with time as he said that.

[MarshiestMallow]

Phoebe laughed, "we will just see about that" Phoebe was more of a free style dancer, but was good at following the beat of the music. She moved with Ryan, happy. "This has been perfect"

Kijani sighed softly. "Let me try to explain something. Accepting your help is... putting faith in another person. That they will actually live up to their words." Her gaze fell to stare blankly at the table, and for a moment the mask she so carefully composed day after day slipped. She looked worn to the bone, and fragile, as if something within her was held together with glue and glass, ready to break... Then she picked her gaze up and the mask was back as if it had never been lost. "I don't know if I'm capable of that. I don't think I can stop second guessing people, or planning what to do when they don't come through."

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin saw Ben, Anthony and John enter the cafe. She wanted to avoid Anthony as much as possible. She wasn't sure talking to Jon was smart. Which is why she marched right up to him.

Ryan laughed as he danced. Maybe it was his footing but he was a bit unsteady. "That had been the plan. To make this perfect. It was the jackpot. I think this was my best date ever. " He said still grinning like a fool. He was oddly in a great mood. "I did all for you. "

Jack was not a paranoid guy. But there was something up with Katherin. She was power walking towards John. Why? He wanted to know. So he sat down far enough to be away but close enough to watch.

[knight125]

John looks up from a burrito as Katherine approaches him. He finishes chewing ans=d sets his food down before asking with a raised eyebrow, "Hey babe. You lookin' for your boyfriend?" He then continues with a grin, "Or maybe a new one?"
