[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

[Klyix]

Aver'i eventually settled on the chicken burger and followed Ben to a table. She busied herself with putting mayonnaise in the burger and cutting it in half and then when he asked his question she thought for a moment. "Honestly, I don't know. It's not exactly like I can blend in with the general public so I can hardly drop off the grid and get a normal job. On the other hand, flying around, saving the city, I don't know, it just sounds so.. cliche." Before she could say much more somebody else came and joined them at the table who seemed to know Ben. "Oh hi, I'm Aver'i. And you are?"

Phoebe

Phoebe returned the hug, and then looked at her own food that she hadn't touched. She wasn't feeling that hungry but figured she had to eat no matter how much she didn't want to. "My sign language is pretty crap really. Sorry, I know it would be easier for you" Phoebe said to Sue.

Sue was patient, and taught Phoebe some of the basic gestures for certain keywords. Much like the alphabet, there were hand gestures for all 26 characters. However, you didn’t spell out the words in sign; there was a sign for each word or a combination of signs for more complex words. For now, she taught Phoebe the following: ”I”, “Me”, “You”, “Like” and “Don’t Like.” Then, Sue took out her phone and, with Phoebe’s permission, Bluetooth’d a diagram of the hand gestures for all the letters. She showed examples such as spelling out her own name, and spelling out Phoebe’s name. Sign language is a beautiful thing, but it can be arbitrary and sometimes the flow that would make sense normally doesn’t and so there were random jumps from one sign to another, but each sign was in and of itself semantically sound.

She then wrote down on her notebook, ”I’ll quiz you tomorrow,” with a joking, sinister smile and glare followed by a giggle.

"You're a scary girl, you know that?" Phoebe said after a minute "I mean, in pretty sure you're joking, but...you're just so...expressive" she struggled to find the right word to describe what she meant. "Thanks, anyway. I guess I was just feeling sorry for myself"

She buried the apple core, simply to have something for her hands to do. Then thought, what the hell and waved a hand over the dirt. Instead of an apple tree, pineapples grew "seriously, how is this happening. It was an apple core!" She sighed

When one was mute, one had to make do with their non-verbal expressions. Hand gestures, body posture, and especially facial expressions. She was happy Phoebe mentioned that. Sue was fun around children with her fun-loving demeanour.

So when Phoebe said she felt sorry for herself, Sue laid her head on her shoulder and pouted her lips.

She wondered deeply on what Phoebe was doing with burying the apple core, and was astonished and dumbfounded when a tree came out. Though the fruit was wrong, she was nevertheless impressed and wondered the possibilities of what she more she could do. With nature all around them, Phoebe had unlimited control of the Earth around her, and Sue shuddered at the thought of such power.

Sue, pointed to her ear, and snapped her fingers. It produced a soundwave that wasn’t painfully loud but was as audible as a basketball bouncing in an empty gym. The afternoon was bright and the soundwave was, barely, visible and an air ring was spread from where they were outwards.

Sue wouldn’t be surprised if heads turned to where the sound emanated from, and just on cue, Sue turned to the cafeteria with heads transfixed to her.

Phoebe plucked one of the pineapples, wondering why she had such trouble with making apples. She shoved the pineapple in her pack, shaking her head. Phoebe never thought on just how much she could affect the world with ner power. To her, she helped bala ce nature out. Sure, she had a bit of fun, growing flowers and things, but she never gave more then the earth could handle.

She really hoped that those in charge of the school didn't mind all the plants she had been adding here and there while practicing. She remember the guys words from the first day, or at least the meaning behind them. You don't want to anger the batman.

Thinking about batman gave her some ideas. She tucked them away in her mind for a future time. She looked up just as Sue snapped her fingers, creating the soundwave.

She saw the neads turn, and thought why? Surely at one time or another they had exercised their powers, why then did they turn to Sue? Was it simple becausd it was audiable, different?

"And thats when shes happy" phoebe found nerself saying, just loud enough to be heard, "so I wouldnt anger her" she smiled at Sue

Kyra smiled. "Well, if you really want to learn, you've gotta prove it to me.."

[MarshiestMallow]

"And just how do we do that?" Connor asked, for je was always up to learning a new language

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin made herself comfortable in the shade of a tree. She decided to use the time to write her dad. The question was what to tell him. She definitely couldn't tell him everything the way she usually did.She like the school alright, but it wasn't home. She didn't know anyone and connecting with the other students was harder then Katherin had thought it would be. Katherin nibbled on her lip as she considered what to write. It had to be upbeat, but as honest as possible.

[Anime_Freak]

Kyra shrugged. "That's up to you... You should know that I won't teach just any person, so you have to prove to me that you are willing to learn in any way possible.

Illumi strolled over to Katherin. "Hey there..." he said, smiling at her.

[KatherinWinter]

"Hello Illumi. How has your day been?" Katherin asked as she looked up from her half composed letter. So far Katherin had covered arriving at the school, choosing classes, and the famous teachers she had met. Nothing personal. She needed something personal or her dad would know something was up.

[Anime_Freak]

"Whatcha writting?" he asked, sitting next to her.

[KatherinWinter]

"A letter to my dad. You would think that lying by email would be easier then lying in person but it isn't." Katherin says as she shows him what she has written so far.

Ben sighs as Anthony sits down, "Aver'i, this is Anthony. He acted like a complete jerk yesterday, and now I'm pretty much the only one who doesn't hate him."

Anthony chuckles, resisting the urge to be offended, "Oh, they don't hate me, they simply aren't used to my personality yet. They'll come around eventually." He leans forward, rests his chin on his fist, and asks Aver'i, "So Aver'i, I believe I heard you mention that you find the hero life rather cliche. Who told you that you have to follow the norm? You could opt for the lethal justice route, like our friend Ben here. Or, you could always go for a more malicious way of life. The beauty of this school is that you won't be forced to become a perfect little girl scout."

[MarshiestMallow]

Connor ate his lunch thoughtfully "I am always eager to learn new things" he said

[Mike the Bloodwolf]

Mike walked into the cafeteria and waved to Kyra to say hello, as he picked up an apple from the café and a bottle of Coco cola Zero before he looked around for a place tosit

[Anime_Freak]

Kyra nodded."I know... It's just that I want you to prove you're capable of learning one of the most dificult languages in the world." she said.

Illumi tilted his head to the side. "Lying? About what?" he asked.

[Mike the Bloodwolf]

Mike felt ignored so he sighed and sat down on his own once more as he thought about what he should do next

[KatherinWinter]

Katherin sighed. " Illumi I can not tell my dad that I've made no real connection."

[Anime_Freak]

"What do you mean no connection? You made a friend, haven't you?" he chuckled, nudging her arm with his elbow.

[Klyix]

She wondered just what he could have done to have granted such a strong reaction from so many people but decided against asking. "Why don't you then? If everyone else hates him, what's stopping you?" She asked Ben, ignoring Anthony's suggestions that they didn't actually hate him. She then turned her attention to him as she spoke. "I think you'll find that I won't be forced to be anything that I don't want to be." She challenged back, leaning forward also to face him.
