[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

[MarshiestMallow]

Connor returned her kiss,before nodding and smiled, "I'd like that" He said. it did seem like forever. First, there was her helping Anthony, and then having to infiltrate the facility she'd been in, and then the last couple of days just seemed like one thing after another.

He was silent for a minute as he pondered entering the talent show as well, but what could he do? Build something in a matter of minutes, sure, but that wasn't really impressive, was it?

"Did you want to go anywhere, or just get something from a take a way place?"

[Mistress Dizzy]

Devika looked to Nicholas with concern. "What is it? It sounded like you were going to ask me something..." She smiled very slightly. "Go on. Ask. We're still getting to be friends after all."

--

Kijani smiled gratefully. "I promised you Italian, it seems ages ago. But tonight, we're getting the best Italian in New York City." She hooked her arm through his, and started to lead him toward the exit of the campus. "The debate for that title alone could cause a fist fight among city people. Kinda like Mets versus Yankees. No one's ever happy." A faint chuckle escaped her. "There's a place I enjoy, though. The prices could be better, but they could also be worse. But they do the food right." She gently poked him in the side. "I hope you have room in there, Connor. Because tonight, we dine like kings!"

(Feel free to just have this as an implied scene once we roll to the next day, Caits.)

"No i was going to ask about your parents i was wondering about this but of course you cannot say because i thought....it was going make you mad which is understandable..." Nicholas said looking down at the floor.

As the sun rose on a new day at the Academy there was a buzz of excitement in the air. Instead of reluctantly dragging themselves to their classes the day had been cleared to make room for something a little different. Today was the talent show, a treat for all students and a chance for some to exhibit their lesser known skills.

[Flood]

Flood looked out at the school from the top of another built my nearby and shrugged. "Off I go." He checked his backpack to make sure he had what he needed and he jumped off the building towards the school. He reached for his backpack at the last second and pulled a cord releasing a parachute. He landed safely and walked towards the auditorium to begin set up.

[MarshiestMallow]

"That's because people enjoy the arguing" Connor said thoughtfully, smiling as she chucled. "Good food, it doesn't matter the cost" He smiled once more as she poked him, "There's always room for more food"

As the new day rolled around, Kalinda found herself hovering above the roof of the girls dorm. Like she had been for the last two hours. She was panting slightly, but smiling in satisfaction. She could do it. She dropped down to the roof, landing smoothly, and laughed. She had done it. When was the last time she had felt this joy at succeeding? Not for a long time. Her control over her powers had strengthened, and now....she grinned. It was freeing, even if she seemed to be changing as her control grow. She found herself faminished, and heading down towards the cafeteria, smiling all the while.

Phoebe was up, and down in her garden. She had been thinking, and trying to figure out what she could do with the talent show. She had no idea, and yet she had entered, perhaps foolishly. She sighed to herself, and left a note for her mother tucked in between two small tree branches, which she manipulated to hold it there, and then began to trudge her way back to the school buildings. She could do several things, and she eventually decided on something as she found a table at the cafeteria.

NIcholas had started his morning with the usual business by taking a shower,brushing his teeth and finally putting on his clothes.He walked over to his laboratory grabbing a few things for himself like his vials of his fear gas along with his gloves.He known he was in the talent show and was going to show of his skill but wasn't going to practice because he needed to find his mother to train him.

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin headed out of her dorm with a bounce in her step. She was excited about today. She wondered who would go first. She kind of wanted to. She had her presentation all worked out. It was going to be specular. She made her way down to the cafeteria. She couldn't wait to see everyone presentation. She wondered what everyone would do. She wondered what they would think of her show. She couldn't wait to find out.

---

Zack barely gotten Griffin to agree and register in time. He hoped his brother's presentation went alright. Griffin would never forgive him if something went wrong. He knew his brother would never forgive him if something went wrong. Griffin tried not to care about people. He tried to bury his emotions. But he wanted and needed the approval of others. Because he refused to acknowledge his emotions he needed the emotions of others to tell him whether or not he was succeeding or failing.

Kijani woke up with a yawn, stretching slow. Last night with Connor had been fun. They had gone to a small Italian restaurant that was worth the long wait. Kijani had gone home with a full belly and leftovers that could last the weekend.

Once she was clean and dressed, she pulled up a piece of music on her computer. After pressing play, she shut her eyes and simply listened. The music flowed over her, and when the song ended, she got up. Her clothes were very basic. A t-shirt and bike shorts, no shoes. She'd pushed everything out of the center of the room to create a dance floor. She hit play again and then let her body do the work. It was nearly effortless, something she didn't have to fully think about. Perhaps if she hadn't been born with her powers, she would be going to an art school instead.

--

Devika was outside early. She'd met John in the gym for her usual exercise. Then she settled out underneath the trees for her daily meditation. She had to double her effort. Everyone on campus was excited about the talent show. While excitement was pleasant, if she took in too much of it, she got more shaky than a caffeinated coke fiend. Today would be hard.

Nicholas was walking though the the outside of the school walking along the path when he crossed paths with Devika who was mediating and slowly approached her,He was being careful now and was now sitting beside her placing a lovely looking flower on her lap.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Devika didn't react, or even respond until Nick placed the flower in her lap. Her lips twitched into a bit of a smile. "Figured it was you." She exhaled one more time, expelling all of the old air from her body. Then she opened her eyes and looked at Nick. "Morning." She looked down at the flower and smiled, gently touching the petals.

"Thank you." She picked up the flower carefully and set it in her shirt, where it nestled between her breasts. "Have you eaten breakfast yet?"

[Eviledd1984]

"No I have just woken up but I'm up so early to find my mother to train as she promised but so far I couldn't find her..." He said somberly looking at her eyes am not at her breast where the flowers were set and made him blush a little,"Their is also the matter of the talent show but that seems irrelevant seeing as my powers are a new priority" Nicholas added a few flowers appearing beside her.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Devika nodded a bit. "Well, I wasn't going to attend the show." She smiled, but her eyes were sad. "Too many people. I hope someone records it, though. I want to see what people do." She looked sideways at him. "You had a talent that you were going to show off?"

[Eviledd1984]

"Yes I had a something for the talent show but like I said it will be useless for me since harnessing my new powers to be more important..." Nicholas said looking down down at her before kneeling beside her,"If you want I can record the show and...we could watch it together.."
He spoke rather quietly of this.

[MarshiestMallow]

Connor had been awake half the night after returned to the school with Kijani. Somehow, he had signed up for the talent show. And had no idea what to do. He had started drawing quick sketches of things he could do on the stage in a matter of minutes, but found it difficult to come up with something. How did he demonstrate his schools? Most were related to what he could do with his own two hands, building and making things.

Once he had figured out what he was going to do, he had spent the rest of the night where they were going to do the talent show, setting up what he needed so it wouldn't be completely obvious that it wasn't apart of the building to begin with. He didn't want people wondering about it, and what it could be for.

"That would be really great!" Devika grinned widely. "That way I won't feel like the only person who didn't go." She reached out and gave him a pat on the shoulder. "That's really nice of you to think of me, Nick. Thanks."

[Eviledd1984]

"Yes but for now my mother can wait...how was your morning today" Nicholas asked not blushing this time and keeping his emotions in check even though on the inside he was feeling happy and excited that she was touching him.

[Mistress Dizzy]

"My morning was fine. I did my usual exercise and doubled my meditation time... and then you showed up." She gave him a concerned gaze, then looked at her shoes. "You shouldn't... waste time with me right now. Go to your mom, Nick. She's much more important. Especially since you never knew her. What I'd give-" She stopped that sentence short, and took a slow breath to immediately counteract the wave of sadness that welled up in her. "Go to her, is all I'm saying. I'll be around later."

[Eviledd1984]

"Look once I get back form training I'm sure we can..hang out or something I do not want to..keep you waiting too long" Nicholas said not really wanting to hurt her feelings an wanted to spend more time with her.
