Bio

Hiya, AChronum here! Although I'm relatively new to rping, I have plenty of writing experience and love trying new genres and styles. I absolutely love high magic fantasy RPs and am pretty much willing to do anything so long as I can create a charaxter, not play an existing one, and develop lots and lots of backstory! I'm perfectly comfortable with all mature themes as well, although smut for smut's sake is out of the question.

Interested in an RP? Send me a PM and have a magically marvelous day!

Danni fidgeted a little, nervous about what he was going to do. Sabine
 made a good point once he'd taken the time to process what she was actually saying. The tears had really made it hard at the time but as he thought about it more, maybe it made sense that some people thought he was too much if he was always just blazing his way through people’s feelings. He'd spent a lot of time thinking, like enough time that his head started to hurt more than once, and he realized he may have been the tiniest, ittiest, littlest bit of a bully waaaaaay back during the carnival to
 a few people. It wasn't ever what he meant to do, he wasn't being mean, he just wanted to give advice, but if someone had come up to him and said the same things, Danni could admit he'd probably start crying.

So, he'd set out to apologize to the people he could remember, and he slipped a little letter under her dorm door and hoped she'd show up! He didn't ever really talk to her, made her a friendship bracelet sure because they'd ultimately survived being murdered together, but they weren't in any of the same classes and he didn't really know anything about her. Still, his letter was very compelling. Danni kissed the top of Amélie's head before letting her down, watching her scurry after a flying bug.



Andy had been confused by the letter. A little worried at first, but when she opened and saw it was from Danni was just more confused. Had they shared more than a few words since the Carnival? She had watched a movie with Dorian, but Danni hadn’t been there. She didn’t think it was a trap to beat her up, not that she was terribly worried about anyone trying to beat her up. Danni probably could hurt her, but Andy didn’t think she could die. The Framework had been a clear enough indication that she probably couldn’t. The cost of it wasn’t great so she hoped she could avoid that.

For some reason as she made her way out to the field she thought about ‘80’s films where the bully was always some weird over the top idiot. They got their just desserts by the end usually. With lessons learned, hopefully. She walked out to the field just before 3 pm. Hopefully he hadn’t meant 3 am. But that’d be a weird time to meet someone in a field, unless they were planning to beat them up or give them a swirly or something. Danni wasn’t that kind of bully anyway. He was the kind that didn’t even realize they were one. Andy remembered, as she got on the field, that his parents were her old friends from the Mutant Underground. She had never gotten super close to that group, which is why she had left without a goodbye. Now that she knew they missed her Andy did feel a bit bad about that.

”Uh, hey Danni. What’s up?” Her mind mimicked the old movie and made her cringe at the dumb joke.

“Andy! You came!” Danni cheered, thrilled to bits. “‘onestly, I wasn't certain t'at you would. Like, I know you ‘ung out wit’ Dee, but it's been trainin’ t’is and drama t'at and studin’ for dragons
 what else is t'ere ot'er t'an t'is and t'at?” Danni paused, thinking hard. After a few moments, he shrugged.

“Whatever, not a t'in’ we need ‘ere! Unless you know it, t'en I would like it for t'e future.” Danni dismissed it
 mostly. AmĂ©lie came back from her chase, panting softly and plopped herself down next to Danni's feet, big eyes staring up at Andy curiously. “Aw, did your fun wit’ t'e little fly tired you out?” Danni cooed, bending over to run his fingers under her chin. “Andy, t'is is AmĂ©lie. AmĂ©lie, t'is is Andy.” AmĂ©lie huffed a puff of smoke in greeting.

“‘aven't quite gotten ta fire yet, but we're workin’ on it! But t'ats not why we're ‘ere unless you wanna talk ‘bout dragons more?” Danni asked hopefully.

Andy tried to keep her face neutral. Mostly because she could feel her brows trying to furrow and a frown building on her lips. ”Would like what for the future?” She was sure she had missed something. The dragon, small as it was, surprised her. The attempt to not frown was easily forgotten as a smile spread instead.

”She's allowed?” Andy asked in a reverent whisper. ”Hello sweetie.” Andy held out her hand to let the little dragon sniff it. Andy would love to talk about dragons more. She also was curious why Danni had asked her out here if it wasn't to meet the little dragon. ”Uh, I suppose we can talk about whatever. I am curious about her. But if she's not why you asked me to meet you here I'd like to learn that.”

“Yeah, t'ats
 t'ats fair.” Danni said, wringing his hands. He took several breaths to start and shut his mouth, until finally he squared his shoulders. “I called ya out ‘ere ta t'is really, really open field definitely not so if ya tried ta murder me at least one person would record us and I would be famous posthumanously and you would be famous but like out for
 Infamous! You would be infamous for puttin’ me 6 feet under. Or ‘acked inta little itsy, bitsy pieces. But uh, not t'e point. T'e point is I wanted ta say sorry for ‘ow I talked ta ya when we met. I didn't mean it in a bad way, but
 we'll doesn't matter. Beanie told me I don’t really t'ink ‘bout people when I say t'in's and ‘onestly, I'm kinda dumb so like, it took me t'is long ta figure t’at all out but I just, ya know wanted ta apologize so I'm sorry and I ‘ope AmĂ©lie's cute enough for you ta not want ta kill me for insulting basically
 everything?” Danni ended with awkward jazz hands and an uncertain smile.

The smile had faded a bit from Andy's face as Danni was implying she'd be the one to kill him. But Danni plowed on and everything he was going on about culminated into an apology. She blinked surprised. That had not been what she had expected coming out here. ”I appreciate your apology. And don't worry I won't kill you. I try not to kill people when I can avoid it.” Andy had killed enough people, some by accident, some on purpose. She wasn't going to say she didn't kill with that track record.

”What you said that first day did hurt. I didn't know how to react and was thankful for the diversions that happened so I didn't have to react. I got all of my non school stuff...before moving here. It's all old so you weren't wrong. But I like my clothes. Clothing was one of the ways I could safely express myself growing up. It was dangerous growing up.” Dr. Whitehall would be so proud. She was trying to connect and make a friend. She wasn't ready to tell him the whole truth but she had been careful to avoid lying.

“I definitely can't say I get it, but I'll uh, be more considerate movin’ forward. Like, it didn't really click t'at I was basically just tearin’ down t'e stuff ya enjoy and no one should ‘ave ta deal wit’ t'at so I'm sorry I did t'at day one.” Danni said, starting to tear up. He wiped them away quickly and hoisted up AmĂ©lie, who wiggled and adjusted in his arms so she was still lookin’ at Andy. “T’ankfully, it was not dangerous growin’ up for me so I can't really relate? Papa and Pops and Pa and Appa are all t'e best family you could ask for! But, I was ‘opin’ maybe ta redo our first meetin’ and be friends for real?” Danni asked hopefully.

Andy’s heart ached. They had made their family. Ben was alive and not a ghost, which had been weird. And they were a happy family. Andy’s eyes teared up. Would they know her? Would they be mad that she left? Or did they even care? Had she been forgotten as anything more than a hanger on who joined in the 11th hour? She hadn't been with the MU long. Maybe weeks relatively speaking. She realized she hadn't given Danni an answer. ”I'm willing to try.” She may have left everyone behind to stay with Zari, but she could build something here. Even if it felt a little odd making friends with someone she remembered being an infant. Andy wiped away the tears that burned the corner of her eyes. ”I will say. I haven't had a lot of friends for like seventeen years.” She smiled at her joke, even as she wondered if those from the MU thought of her as a friend.

“Well, ‘ey! I love makin’ friends and so does t'e group! We'll get ya bein’ an expert friend in no time!” Danni rushed to reassure her. Andy getting misty eyed over friendship was certainly not in his plans but this just reminded him not to judge a book by its cover. “We love just vibin’ wit’ each ot'er. And sparrin’ wit’ each ot'er ‘cause Princess is a great counter measure. She makes fun little icicles and I get ta work on shootin’ outta t'e sky! Beanie is t'e best choice if ya wanna more cool time, ya know, and she's a great dancer if ya wanna learn! Dee's super chaotic and really ‘angin’ out wit’ ‘im is like spinnin’ t'e wheel of fun! You never really know where ya gunna land! Mads is super smart and she's got all t'ese cool books, and paintin' supplies so you wanna get artsy or talk t'e talk, she's ya gal! T'en t'ere's me who is, wit’ some minor flaws, still t'e best!” Danni beamed at Andy.

“Buuuuuuut you know what's even more fuuuun t'en bein’ friends wit’ all of us? Bein’ friends wit’ a dragon!” AmĂ©lie huffed at him and he kissed her snout. “Wanna ‘old ‘er?” Danni offered.

”I’d love to!” Andy said, almost squealing with delight. She held out her hands for the dragon, AmĂ©lie. ”I’d like to think I’m already friends with Mads. Despite a training accident. She’s even helped me with homework, and we went to the mall together.”

Danni unwanted the tail around his wrist, shushing the dragon's grumble of disapproval. “You've been eyin’ ‘er t'is whole time, don't say t'at.” Danni chided, giving her a little kiss on top of her head. He gently shifted her over to Andy. “Just be careful. She's still a little ‘ot from before we got ‘ere. I ‘ave ta give ‘er a fire bath ta keep ‘er ‘ot since she can't regulate ‘er temperature. Apparently, dragon's breath fire on t'eir kids so I do t'e same so she feels at ‘ome!”

AmĂ©lie clambered into Andy's arms after a second of sniffing, claws getting into her shirt as she dragged herself up. The dragon's tail wrapped itself tightly around Danni's hand. She radiated heat like a stone sitting too close to the fire for too long. “Now, t'e ot'er problem is t'at she likes
” AmĂ©lie had stuck her face in Andy's hair and started chewing. “‘air. AmĂ©lie, what ‘ave we told ya! Stop t'at!”

Andy giggled, but pulled her face away, suddenly very nervous. ”Uh, don’t let her touch my skin.” She already wore long sleeves and gloves all the time. She didn’t want to risk an accident. But with AmĂ©lie going for her face that was unprotected. ”I’m sorry I should have thought that through. If she touches me skin-to-skin-” Andy’s voice hitched. Only Zari seemed to be able to put up with her touch. She hadn’t had skin-to-skin contact with anyone else since Genosha. Not for extended time. Only Mads had touched her and in that case she had almost killed her and almost been killed in return. And of course that now dead freshman. ”I don’t know what will happen but it probably won’t be good.”

Danni immediately reached out, bopping her nose and ensuring AmĂ©lie kept clear of any skin. “Well, t'en I guess I shouldn't ask for a ‘ug. Unless ya ‘ave a safe ‘uggin’ method, ‘cause I will forgeeeeet t'at skin is a no-no!” Danni laughed, unbothered by the situation. Danni guided AmĂ©lie down into Andy's arms more, blowing a brief puff of fire to entice her down. “But don’t worry! She’s a smart cookie. She'll stay safe! She likes chin scritches!”

Andy visibly relaxed some as AmĂ©lie moved down her arm away from her face. ”Hugs are fine, just don’t touch any skin. It’s why I wear long sleeves and gloves even in the LA heat. Thank god it’s cooling off for winter.” Andy had never lived anywhere as hot as LA was during summer. ”So really my face is the most unprotected space. I don’t know if you heard what happened early in training. I offered a hand to Mads to help her to her feet and started hurting her. She turned into the demon form that she seems stuck in now. Then she stabbed me and I stopped hurting her. It was a whole thing. But neither of us holds it against each other. It was an accident and I learned that I can’t touch people. Other than Zari, she seems immune.”

“Omg, no she didn't! Probably ta protect your privacy and all t'at, but few t'ats intense.” Danni popped his arm on Andy's shoulder while she held AmĂ©lie. “Mads is pretty great like t'ag. Gal of few words, but def a great friend! T’ough she is strugglin’ wit’ ‘er new looks. I t'ink it looks outta t'is world. Get it, get it?” Danni cackled, elbowing Andy. AmĂ©lie also let out a little trill and began to sniff around Andy's pockets.

“But it's a great t'in’ Zari can't get zapped by ya. I didn't know Zari was a ‘ealer. My Pops is a decent one too, makes everythi’in’ from a paper cut t'at missin’ limbs all good again! Maybe she can learn a little from ‘im. Or, we can go ask Papa or Pa. All toget'er t'ey can brin’ back t'e dead so if you do zap me by accident, just give Dee a call. They'll fix me up.” Danni rambled, watching AmĂ©lie decide it was time to investigate the new person. “I ‘ad t'is whole idea of us like redoing our first meetin’ and t'en I panicked and t'rew a dragon at you, but w'atcha lookin’ ta get outta t'is whole school t'in’? ‘onestly, ya seem pretty capable wit'out t'is.”

”She's not a healer.” Andy said confused. Not sure how Danni had gotten that from what she had said. She did smile at Danni talking about James and Casper. She almost laughed as she remembered the time Casper told her to punch a dude in the deck if he was pressuring her for sex.

”I've had some training prior to coming here. But I need more long term stuff. I need to prevent something from happening.” God how could she explain her mom without telling Danni whoever was. ”Basically, I have an object in my possession that if someone unscrupulous took it from me could end the world. So I have to protect it. I am capable. But I need to be stronger.”

”Who is who? You say Pops and Pa. Dorian showed me photos but I don't know who you mean by the nickname.”

“T'ats so cool.” Danni whispered in awe. Andy had a world ending item just causally in her possession? He wanted to see! “Oh! Pops is
 you now, Pops. ‘is name is James and Pops is like, the responsible one, you know? ‘e runs kinda an underground clinic and ‘e'll see anyone, normie or hero or villian. Pa is Maxie, a really, really good magician and ‘e keeps our ‘ouse together, like literally. Wit'out Pa, we'd probably ‘ave A ‘ouse wit’ a reasonable amount of ‘allways. T'en there is Appa -t'ats Benji-, who is married ta Pa. Appa is always around, keeps t'e ‘ouse tidy and ‘e is always willin’ ta listen, except on some days when t'e rents just tell us ta leave ‘im alone. ‘e just needs ‘is space alotta times. And of course, t'ere is Papa! T'ats Casper and ‘e's married ta Pops but really, t'ey're all kinda together and not? They called it t'e QPR but I don't really know what t'at means. But Papa is t'e most like us and ‘onestly, is just ‘ere ta love ‘is family and ‘ave a good time. T'ough, I wish Pops and Papa would ‘ave more good times in places I don't walk into. I ‘ave never wished for eye bleach more t'an when
” Danni shuddered.

”I’ll try to keep it straight...” She grinned. ”Well I’ll at least try to remember who is who.” She was glad members of the MU were still together. It made her wonder how the others were. So many of them were broken when Genosha fell. Did others put themselves back together? Or did they fall apart completely? She was not surprised at all that Casper was involved in good times in inappropriate places. Andy was convinced he had been on drugs back in the day. Though, in Casper’s defence when Andy first met him Casper had been suffering from extreme M-Pox.

“T'ere ain't not'in’ straight in our ‘ouse'old! And it's easier if ya meet ‘em. You should come over next break! Ya can meet ‘em all. We love ‘aven people over. The ‘rents don't really talk ‘bout it, but t'ere real proud of where we live and t'e people we ‘ang out wit’ so I'm sure they'll love ya too!” AmĂ©lie shivered a little in Andy's arms, curling up closer to her. “I ‘ave tons a photos of t'em too! T'ank god for t'e cloud ‘cause I'd never ‘ave enough space ta hold all of t'em. What ‘bout you? Your rents big or do ya kinda avoid t'em?”

”I’d like that.” It might be awkward as hell, Andy considered. ”Well, parents are a bit of an awkward situation for me. I don’t know my father, I think my mom killed him when I was little.” She shifted awkwardly, petting Amelie to cover it. ”Uh, I was adopted by Magento though. I haven’t seen him since I started here. I really need to reach out to him.” That left her mother. ”My mother is...a long story. I don’t think I want to go into it right now if you don’t mind.” That had to be fair, right?

Danni reaaaaaaaally wanted to press but Andy had asked and he was trying to be a good friend. “Yeah, it's no prob! Sorry ta ‘ere ‘bout your dad, t'ough you are technically kinda related ta Princess t'en! I wouldn't really bring t'at up between you and me, but it's inchrestin’ at least!” Danni cooed at AmĂ©lie making little distressed sounds. “Aw, baby You cold again? Lemme ‘elp.” Danni plucked her from Andy and curled her up, took a deep breath, and while he didn't necessarily have to, blew fire along AmĂ©lie's back. Her scales glowed for a moment before settling back to orange and she twisted and turned in his arms to get fire on every scale.

“Aaaaand all warm now!” Danni cheered, letting her down to go scamper off for a moment. “I don't know why Aggie gave me a dragon, but I absolutely love ‘er. Somet'in’ somet'in’ fear of fire and all t'at. But yeah, you wanna come ta our next ‘angout? It's a little cramped in t'e dorm wit’ Princess movin’ in but my forts are t'e best and we all cuddle up real close so we're all as snug as a bug in a rug!”

”Yeah, I don’t think April likes me all that much because of that.” Andy was sad to let the dragon go, but it was probably for the best. She doubted she provided much warmth. ”I’d like that. I don’t know about cuddling though.” She held up her gloved hand, wiggling her fingers as a reminder. ”And would April be alright with that? I don’t want to intrude.”

“Uh
 I would ‘ave ta run it by ‘er. And don't be silly. We'll be careful, but you're gettin’ cuddled. No escape! It's cuddle pile all day in the DAD dorm!” Danni beamed and then looked very serious at her. “Are ya afraid ta touch people wit’ t'is issue? Even wit’ your stuff on. Do you miss like, just casual touches? Should I ‘ave not leaned on your shoulder?!”

Andy’s body tensed. She nodded. ”I hurt people. I can kill people. I have killed people just by touching them. That freshman girl helping Arcade, Ardere, was her name. It brought me back to life, and I don’t regret it because I was able to save the rest of you because of it. But, I’m scared to hurt people I like. I can’t control it. But like I said Zari is immune for some reason and so I still get contact with her.” Andy probably was a bit touch starved, but if she was honest even prior to this she hadn’t done a whole lot of hugging with people.

Danni nodded along. “I get t'at. When I get too overwhelmed, I just kinda
” Danni waved his arms around. Fire. Just fire everywhere, ya know? I've destroyed lotta stuff ‘cause of it. I mean ‘ell I scorched t'e shit outta t'e dorms t'e ot'er day ‘cause I was in a, yeesh, a really bad place at t'e moment. I'm always afraid t'at if t'e t'at ‘appens while I'm ‘angin’ off someone and curled up in bed with Dee and Princess t'at t’ey won't make it out. T'at t'ey won't ‘ave a chance.” Danni paused, memory wandering to one with too many nightmares in it.

“But t'en I remember it's what ‘elps keep me stable, all t'e contact and t'e cuddling. I get antsy if I don't get skin ta skin contact and if it goes too long woof. You t'ink my emotions are wild now? A Danni who hasn't had physical contact wit’ other people for 24 ‘ours. e's a whole lotta crazy.” Danni laughed. “But, it's all ‘bout figurin’ out t'e right technique so if ya every wanna practice hugs or cuddles’ or somethin’, we can spend some time talkin’ safety and limits and see what we can do ta get you t'at! T'eres nothing like a nice long cuddle session wit’ t'e besties ta ‘elp melt away t'e stress!”

Andy bit her lip thinking. She had never had that. Even before Genosha. Ash would hug her occasionally. Before that had been Northwood and foster homes. The only family that had ever really hugged had been her first family. The one family she had considered home until Ash and Jamie. She hadn’t even known she was a mutant yet. ”Maybe. I did tell Dorian he could hug me if he put a blanket over me. He ended up using an oversized hoodie. So we sort of figured it out. And it felt good. It’s sort of funny, my jacket, when Ash gave it to me it was so I could charge it with electricity and have the spikes light up. Now it feels more like armor keeping people away. Most of my physical contact was fighting, but that was all before I became an energy vampire. I was good. Like really good. People would come and fight me from all over and I didn’t ever use my electricity, it was just me being fast.” Andy stopped. She had said too much. Dr. Whitehall told her to open up to people but this was getting too close to her and Danni’s shared history. She wasn’t ready.

”Anyway, yeah, we can talk about it. Work out how to do it safely. If April is okay with me joining. I won’t get between you three. I know that I make her uncomfortable. I won’t say she hates me, though sometimes it feels like she might. She never said as much, but she seems offended. If that makes sense.” Andy shook her head. Eventually her and April were going to have to talk through this. If Andy was going to be friends with Danni and Dorian.

“OMG! You were a world renowned fighter? Can you teach me? I'm mostly a mid-range guy. Ya know, small blasts ta keep people off balance. I would love ta get a little bit more ‘and ta ‘and experience. I'm pretty quick on my feet but let's be real, I ain't got t'at stuff ta be a brawler. Anyt'in’ t'at ‘elps me move a little better will keep me in t'e fight longer!” Danni asked excitedly. “And Dee’s so mart, ain’t ‘e? Maybe I’ll start carryin’ a ‘oodie ‘round just ta be able ta give ya a ‘ug whenever I see ya! And I'll talk ta Princess for ya don't worry. She love pretty much everybody and I'm sure she'll be chill wit’ ya soon enough! We'll get ya a pro at friends in no time!”

In the distance, a heavy thud sounded and the shrill distress of an irritated dragon followed. “Well, uh, shit. You got ta ‘old a dragon. ‘ow do ya feel ‘bout savin’ one?” Danni asked, exasperated but dashing off towards the noise.

”Sure I’ll teach you some stuff. And yeahhhh...That sounds dire. Let’s go.” Andy said running after him.

Danni hummed, happy to finally relax for a second, with Amélie curled up on his chest. It was amazing that an actual dragon hatched out of that egg. He wouldn't have put it past Aggie just to give him something to stress about for the fun of it - she was always a little kooky but that's why he loved her! If he had any magical talent (or focus really), he would have loved to be in her classes.

His phone's alarm screeched suddenly and he startled from his drowsing, AmĂ©lie protesting with an absolutely adorable and disgruntled chirp. She only bothered to open one eye, glare at her warm bedding, and clammered off. “I'm so sorry, baby! Do you wanna ride wit-” AmĂ©lie dragged his pillow under the blankets and let out a satisfied grumble before curling up. “Aw, so sleepy! A growing dragon's gotta get ‘er rest!” Danni cooed, kissing her little snout, taking a quick pictures, and skipping out the door.

He wasn't certain what Beanie wanted to meet up about, but he was always happy to see her! It'd been a while since they'd had a chance to hangout together just the two of them. Maybe she wanted to dance! The haunted tree was a weird place to do that but hey, he'd done weirder!

Sabine had been dreading this conversation, but she knew it was necessary. She had been learning that keeping things bottled up and not addressing concerns didn’t help anything. In fact, they often made the situation worse. April’s mental health concerns were a catalyst of sorts and her own session with Maeve had opened her eyes somewhat.

So she texted Danni to meet up at the haunted tree. A sort of “where it all began” moment when the first cracks in their relationship started to appear.

Sabine had been waiting. When she looked up she waved over to Danni. Damn, she still cared for him. This was going to be rough.

“‘eeeeey, Beanie!” Danni shouted, bouncing up to her and throwing his arms around her. “It's been so long! Why ‘aven't we ‘ung out in so long? We def shouldn't wait so long next time! I missed you. What’cha been up to? ‘ow’d t’erapy go? Maeve’s real nice! She even made some coffee cups, really liked that, cause ot’erwise it was kinda lifeless, ya know? Yeesh. Who wants ta suffer in a borin’ room when you’re baring your ‘eart and soul.” Danni chattered.

“Aaaanywho, what's up? What we doin’? We dancin’, we doin’ someth’in’ new? Oh, wait lemme show you AmĂ©lie! She steals my pillow and curls up under my blankets when she's sleepin’ and I got a great photo of ‘er today, look!” Danni shoved the phone under her nose like the proud dragon parent he was.

Sabine was reminded of why she loved Danni so much. He made it so hard to be upset with him, which admittedly was part of the problem. She knew from experience Danni didn’t like talking about stuff that upset him, preferring to avoid it. She wondered how his own therapy session went. ”Hey Danni!” She smiled warmly as Danni took a picture with them and his new dragon. ”Therapy went well and yes, I agree, I like Maeve. I didn’t think her office was lifeless. If anything, she opened it up for whatever I wanted. Did you know that’s her power? She can make tactile illusions. Very cool.”

Ok Sabine, time to get real.

”And no, Danni. No dancing. Not yet at least, though that does bring up one thing I wanted to talk about. It’s about the conversation we had in Coulson’s office about the new teams.” She waited, seeing if Danni had even an inkling on what she was referring to.

“So cool! I ‘ad ta ask ‘ow long t'ey lasted when she wasn’t around ‘cause t'ink of ‘ow easy it'd be ta decorate! Christmas lights? No ladders, no mess, no storage. But looks like it reverts pretty quick, t'ough I didn't really get an exact number.” Danni realized, frowning for a second before shrugging it off.

“Oh, t'e whole we're dead in anot'er version of t'e world ‘cause a big, bad organization murdered t'e whole t'in’? ‘Onestly, I ‘ad ta ‘ave Percy explain t'at ta me ‘cause I didn't understand it. Waaaaaaay too galaxy brain for me! I t'ought they meant pruney like whe you go swimmin’’ for too long” Danni mimed his brain exploding with a sheepish laugh. “Oh, wait no, you said teams, not obliterated timestreams. Uh, yeah I guess? Why what's up? Did ya wanna try and change ‘em again or somet'in’?”

Sabine shook her head. ”No not that part, though that’s why I plan on going back to therapy because honestly what the entire fuck? No Danni, I am talking about how we treated Zelda. One word from Coulson on teams changing because of what happened and you booted Zelda out. I get wanting to be a team together with April and Dorian, hell it’s all you guys talk about, and it was nice to include me, Leah, and Percy, but there was no attention paid to Zelda. She was put on our team and I thought during training and the fight we were in we worked well together. It didn’t seem fair to just
.kick her out without a discussion or seeing if she even wanted to be on our team or not.”

“Other people’s feelings are valid Danni. Sometimes I think you forget that.”

Danni frowned, trying to figure out what Sabine was talking about. “But like, doesn't Zelda just not want ta be ‘ere? Like, she only wants ta do fashion. I coulda swore she'd mentioned ‘ow she only does t'e contest, or even comes ‘ere, ‘cause she's expected to. And like, she didn't even show up ta t'e meetin’, she was one of t'ose little camera t'in'ies and even when I went ta ‘er room later ta give ‘er th'e friendship bracelet, I ‘ad t'at leave it in a little baggie on t'e door ‘andle.” Danni giggled a little though. “You know, you sounded a lot like Maevie. She told me ta remember my feelin’s are valid. Sorry l, t'is is super serious, gimme a moment.”

It took a few moments for his giggling to get under control. “Oookay, you t'ink I'm a jerk for kickin’ Zelds out and
 tbf, I only kept Leah and Percy ‘cause I'd figure y'all were gunna kick a fit if you didn't ‘ave your significant ot'ers on a team wit’ y'all considerin’ ‘ow ‘ard it's been ta ‘ang out wit’ ‘ow obsessed y'all've been wit’ each ot'er.” Danni curled in on himself a bit, kicking the ground as he tried to gather his thoughts. “I just wanna win. Zelds and Leah-t'ough she's just confusin’ me cause like, she said she didn't wanna do it and t'en suddenly wanted ta do it but only ta be wit’ y'all, I don't really get ‘er-and I t'ink even Percy aren't really
 motivated ta kick ass, Beanie. We can't ‘ave people who don't wanna put in a 100%, right?”

Sabine felt herself grow more frustrated. ”That’s the entire point though Danni, it wasn’t a conversation we had. Yes, Zelda may not want to be on the team, yes Percy and Leah may not care enough or only care because the people they are with care. But we didn’t talk about it at all. You just decided for everyone. I would be totally okay if April and/or Leah were on the opposite team because I recognize enough about myself to understand that it doesn’t mean I don’t care about them or want them to fail.” It was true, to an extent. She wouldn’t be super thrilled about it, but she wanted to win. But she also wanted to ensure that the people who wanted to be there, in whatever capacity, was there.

”Also, real rich coming from you talking about ‘kicking a fit’ considering your feelings about Dorian and Percy being together.” As soon as the words left her lips, Sabine hated herself. ”Shit, I didn’t mean that Danni! I’m sorry!”

Danni had been thinking real hard, hard enough he could feel his brain hurt because honestly, he was having a hard time wrapping his head around what Sabine was saying but Danni thought he was doing something nice. He gave them a present, right? Danni hated doing things he didn't really want to so would-

Danni took a step back, eyes wide and mouth agape. It felt like she'd slapped him and everything in his head came to a screeching halt. “Um
 I, um
” Sabine wanted to have a serious conversation and here he was, lower lip quivering and tears prickling at the edges of his eyes. He couldn't hold it back though, and he curled himself into a ball and sobbed.

“I know! I'm the worst! I don't mean to but its- it's so hard, Beanie.” Danni wailed, words broken up between hiccups. “Like, Princess and Dee and you all got into relationships at the same time and you all started hanging out with each other and I'm just
 alone. I get left behind while you all are off and when Dee texted me tha’at t'ey ya know, did t'e nasty, I just
 it was just another t'in’ t'ere gunna do and leve me out of. Just like you and Princess and Leah. You're all gunna do t'at too and you all won't ‘ave time for me anymore. And after I burned my ‘ouse down ‘cause t'e ‘cadie nightmares, I just can't ‘old it back when I get upset like t'at. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Don't be mad at me please!” Danni wrapped his arms around himself tighter, shaking.

Sabine felt intense remorse. She knew Danni didn’t intend any harm, deep down. Yet, that was still the problem, wasn’t it? Still, Danni falling to the floor reminded her that she wasn’t innocent in this either. Danni’s words held some truth to it: when she got together with April and Leah, a lot of her other relationships fell to the wayside. She hardly posted on social media and, when she did, it usually had April and Leah in it. She had forgotten Danni. And that wasn’t fair.

Still, her feelings were valid too. Sabine walked over and crouched down, putting her arms around Danni. ”You are not the worst Danni and I won’t have you talking about my best friend like that!” Sabine felt the tears come up and decided to let them flow. ”Please tell me when I upset you Danni. You are one of my best friends and I never want to hurt you, but I won’t know if you don’t tell me. I know you don’t mean anything by it when you didn’t include Zelda and I know you are dealing with a lot when it comes to Dorian and Percy. But please, your feelings are valid and you need to let them out sometimes. I need to do a better job of that also.”

Danni clung to Sabine, calming down a little as he got physical comfort. “Uhm, okay, so um, we're good? Overall, yeah?” Danni asked timidly, still sniffling. “It just
 it just seemed like what t’ey wanted,yeah? Like when ya give someone a present, you don't talk about it, you just do it. I t'ought I was givin’ t’em a present.” Danni whined. “I'm sorry, I didn't mean ta make t'em feel like I didn't care. T’at's why I gave t'em friendship bracelets.”

Sabine sighed inwardly. ”Yes, Danni, of course we are good. I know your intention was good but sometimes even our best intentions can hurt other people and a friendship bracelet won’t make it better. That’s why we should talk more about how we are feeling and what we need.” Sabien chuckled. ”God I sound like that therapist.”

"That's why I was laughin’, you sound like Maevie.” Danni hiccuped sadly. “I don't know what ta do t'en. Do you t'ink t'ey're upset? Should we ‘ave anot'er ‘angout session so t'ey don't feel left out?” Danni asked pitifully.

”I think we should get together with everyone, yes. Maybe speak about how we are feeling overall with each other. I think they are more upset that you are upset than for anything you may have done. But yeah, I think talking more with each other will be good, especially before the contest.”

“A’ight. We can do t'at.” Danni pushed himself to his feet, still sniffling. “Do you maybe wanna hang out a little more for fun? Or do you wanna go gather everyone now?” Danni asked, not quite ready to face people after sobbing in public. He probably needed to go wash his face too - he wasn't always the prettiest cryer and he was certain he was puffy and red everywhere.

Sabine sat there a moment more, relishing in the growth that was just achieved. As much as she hated to admit it, Dr. Whitehall’s suggestion worked. Didn’t mean it would work all of the time, but communication helped. ”Let’s maybe sit here a bit longer and collect ourselves. I, for one, need to re-apply my eyeliner and mascara because my face is probably a mess and I cannot see people until that is fixed.”

Dr. Maeve Whitehall peered at the file in front of her as she tapped a finger on the edge of her chair. Daniel Kingston was next up. Pyrokinesis was interesting given the brief personality makeup done on him. Still, powers manifested for a reason, she believed.

This would prove interesting.

_________________________________________________

As Danni walked into the room the walls were a light shade of lavender and the carpeted floor was white with specks of purple woven through the threads. There was a white sofa with fluffy white feather pillows and two light purple armchairs. The white wooden table in the middle had some fashion magazines on it as well as some psychology books. There was also a pitcher of water with two glasses and some sliced oranges and lemons.

On the wall there was an abstract painting with shades of red, blue, black, and pink almost thrown in a haphazard, but controlled way. There were some plants strewn about, hung from the ceiling or in pots on the side.

Maeve sat in one of the armchairs. ”Hello Daniel. Or would you prefer Danni? My name is Dr. Maeve Whitehall but you can call me Maeve or Dr. Whitehall, whichever you prefer. Please have a seat where you feel more comfortable. And let me know if the decor in here is to your liking or if I need to change anything. I want you to feel good in here.”

Danni, after all but throwing open the door, gagged at his legal name before slinging his bag on the other arm chair and collapsing onto the couch. “Pleaaaaase, never call me Daniel. T'ats like, reserved for super formal sh- stuff-can I swear ‘ere or will I get in trouble, btw?-or when I pranked t’e ‘rents or forgot ta like, turn in ‘omework and tanked my grades. Danni is fine so we can chill. But t’anks for askin' cause walkin’ in ‘ere made me wonder if was in t'e right place. Kinda looks like a showroom floor rather t'an like a person's space, ya know?” He squirmed a little to get more comfortable, half spread out on the couch. “Gives me Crystal Castle vibes, ya know? Super lonely wit’ only an ancient robot, ‘ologram t'ingy for company. Wait, you're not a
? No, t'ey wouldn't do t'at a second time.” Danni waved the idea off.

“But ‘ow do you feel 'bout nicknames? I ‘ave strong feelin's ‘bout nicknames, ya know. I like t'em a lot so if t'is is more t'an a one time th'in’ t'en I'mma ‘ave a nickname for you eventually. But no, ‘old on. You asked me about the room. Yeah, super nice, super clean, super cool but like
 kinda lifeless ‘onestly. Not ta dis your style but not even a coffee cup sittin’? I'll brin’ ya some next time. Whatcha drink? Dee makes a mean cup of coffee, but I'm down ta stop by t'e cafeteria or someth’In’ if t'ats not your style. Do you ‘ave coasters? You seem like ya like coasters. Plus, everyt'in’ in ‘ere seems like it wants ta stay squeaky clean and pristine. We can get ya lilac ones ta match your vibe.” He jolted up, snapping his fingers as something clicked. “I knew I knew t'is name! Maeve was an old fashion line from like twenty years ago! Do you like t'eir stuff? A little more casual t'an what you look like ya wear, but light and stylish for a fun night out, ya know?”

Maeve took a second. Then she started laughing. ”Wow, okay. Danni it is. Quite the talker. As a therapist I cannot express how wonderful that is. I appreciate a good nickname so if you have one for me, please by all means. Also, I should note that this room is special. I asked if you liked it because I want to make this space comfortable for you. Watch.” With no motion the room would shift, two coffee cups, lilac in color, appeared on the table in front of them. ”It’s my own powers. They are tangible so go ahead and touch if you like. I try to cater each setting to the client but I only had a small file on what you like so I did my best.”

“As for the Maeve fashion line, I am afraid I have never seen their stuff nor heard of it. Maybe you can share some of that with me? I am definitely interested. The name is cultural in my family. Strong Irish heritage here.”

Maeve’s empathic senses got how excited he was. He definitely presented as such. Underneath the chatterbox surface though, was fear. Tenseness. Guilt. She didn’t want to push right away. But she made a mental note.

“Oh, t'ats so cool! T'at must come in real ‘andy. Ya know, when it comes ta decoratin’ for t'e season. How long can ya keep it up? Will it stay like t'is even if ya leave? Like, could you make Christmas lights for a whole month and t'en just snap ya fingers, no clean up needed?” Danni marveled at the cup he picked up and tossed a little. “Makes me t'ink of Maxie, t'ough sometimes ‘e makes us take down t'e stuff ‘e conjures so we don't get too used ta relyin’ on ‘im for everyt'in’.” Danni popped the cup back in its place.

“And yeah, I love talkin’! I'm also a terrible liar ‘cause when t'in's pop in my head, they're mostly comin’ right out, ya know? Plus, who wants t'e pressure of lyin’ ta people? T'en, you gotta keep up t'e lie and remember who knows what and bleg. No t'ank You. Too much work, not enough fun.” Danni waved the idea off, but quickly pulled out his phone and started fiddling with it. “Lemme see if I ‘ave anyth’In’ from t'em on ‘ere
 Hm, a few pieces but not a ton. Not typically what I wear but I ‘ave been know ta try it out for a nice contrast outfit, ya know? ‘Ere, lemme show you. I picked up one of t'ere t'in's recently.” Danni pulled up a photo of the family, Danni dressed in a billowy white blouse and a knee length blue and orange skirt with gold discs on the side. “T'at skirt was part of t'e 2024 winter collection. ‘Eld up pretty nice, just needed a bit of work ta get it's shine back!”

”It’s illusion constructs. I can keep it up pretty long though if I were to leave, after a bit, the room would shift back to what it was originally.”

“And I agree about lying. Even the most experienced liars need to work overtime to maintain it. You appear very much at ease, Danni. It’s admirable, especially given recent events. Tell me, are you able to maintain this attitude all the time or are there moments where you can let your guard down and
experience what you’re actually feeling?” Maeve gave Danni a knowing look. She knew what he was feeling, but did he?

“Oof, t'at's ‘eavier t'an I like ta t'ink about, but uh, yeah. Normally, it's wit’ Princess and Dee and we ‘ave a big ol’ cuddle party and we all just kinda let it out but uh, we ‘aven't ‘ad any t'is year yet. T'ey got t'eir relationships and stuff so most of t'eir free time gets sucked up by t'at now. Which kinda sucks, but at t'e same time it makes t'em ‘appy ya know? Just gotta get t’rough t’e ‘oney moon phase and t'en t'in's will go back ta normal!” Danni shrugged, shrinking into the couch more.

“And like
” Danni was quiet, picking at the couch arm. “You're not gunna like
 tell anyone anyt'in’ I say right? T'is all stay between us?”

Maeve nodded, ”Of course Danni. Everything we say in here is confidential. I won’t tell anyone unless you give me permission to. It’s perfectly natural to experience those conflicting feelings of happiness for your friends and their relationships while also balancing feeling upset or anger or fear at their now limited time with you. That’s the nature of growing up. People meet new friends or loves and relationship dynamics change. It doesn’t make what you have with them any less and if you start to feel like it is you are well within your rights to speak about it. Sometimes with new relationships its easy to blind yourself to others. As you said, the Honeymoon phase is real, but do not let it discount your emotions Danni. They are just as valid.”

“Yeah, we'll I can't really tell t'em t'at or I'll just sound selfish I t'ink. Its
 just easier ta vibe, ya know? Just roll wit’ t'e flow. And ‘onestly, it's probably for t'e better right now.” Danni shifted uncomfortably in place, looking around the room for a few minutes. “T'e whole like ‘cadey t'in’ real doesn't bot'er me, ‘onestly. Like, yeah apparently we did die, but t'at time line is gone because it got purned or whatever, but t'ats whatever. ‘onestly, I'm not really smart enough ta really understand it. Kinda goes over my ‘ead, tbh. It was all good, all wrapped up, ‘rents grounded us for breakin’ curfew but also we ‘ad the best game night after so it's all cool, and t'en I ‘ad t'is nightmare where ‘Cadie ‘ad programmed t'at all into t'e framework and turned out we ‘adn't ever left and I was still trapped in t'e tank, but it was waaaaaaaaaay smaller and I don't like t'at one bit, no t'ank you, so I exploded. You know, fire everywhere. Except it really was everywhere, includin’ our ‘ouse.”

Danni paused, tearing up as he got more upset. “And like, yeah it ‘elped Dee get a new power, but I tried after too. Tried to get it back under control and I just couldn't. I ‘ad it for a second but it was so hungry and I was still scared and BOOM! It ate everyt'in’. ‘ouse gone.” Danni slumped back into his laying position. “And like, what if I do t'at ta t'em? Maybe it's good t'ey ‘ave ot'er people ta ‘ang out wit’ when I'm even worse t'en normal. ‘cause like, a ‘ouse can be replaced ya know? Sure it's missing so much and it doesn't really feel like ‘ome anymore, but like a person is even ‘arder ta fix after t'at.”

”Danni, I am going to challenge you now. First, your feelings are valid. Whatever you are feeling, it is valid. Allow yourself moments of feeling what you need to. It is not selfish nor is it fair to bottle them up because of others. Second, you are not a bad person because of what happened. It was an accident. However, I feel that’s part of why you need to allow yourself ways to vent these feelings. You better than anyone should know keeping something volcanic like fire can be dangerous.”

“As for this nightmare, dreams and nightmares oftentimes show us our internal thoughts. The ones not usually at the front of our minds. It is also not unexpected to have some lingering fear from what happened, though I am glad you all are safe.”

“So, if you would like, I am happy to help teach some coping skills to manage those feelings. We can take it slow and at your own pace. This is, of course, if you would like to keep seeing me. You do not have to. If you do not I am still available if you would like.”

Danni nodded along with Maeve. “Wow, uh, okay. T'at's a lot ta ‘ear, but t’asks I t'ink? I just feel a little uncomfortable now? Idk, but uh
” Danni chewed at his lip for a second, but eventually offered Maeve a timid smile. “Yeah, we can do t'is again. I don't know ‘ow t'is works or ‘ow often we need ta see each ot'er, but I'm down. T'ough, you're gunna ‘ave ta be chill wit’ ‘ow long it can take me ta learn somet'in’ new t'at's gunna make me uncomfy for a while. Especially if I get distracted, or really when I get distracted.”

”It’ll take as long as it takes Danni and there’s nothing wrong with that. Why don’t we set up a weekly session day and time and go from there?”

The second he could, the bag had been dropped and Danni was cuddling his little orange scaled baby. Danni didn't know if this what parenthood was but just looking at his dragon, Danni wanted to cry he was so happy. He definitely felt tears and let out a happy, wet laugh. “Am I okay?! Of course I'm okay! I'm great! Look at ‘er. She's perfect.” Danni said in wonder.

Danni beamed as the rest of the group finally caught up. “I know Princess, isn't she adorable? I t'ink I'll call ‘er AmĂ©lie.” Danni decided, cooing as AmĂ©lie chipped and squirmed. She hooked her claws in his shirt and dragged herself up sitting in his arms with her head resting on his shoulder as she took a look at everything around them. mental note, start investing in some sort of padding so she doesn't destroy your clothes. “Dee, Dee, Dee! Come meet your niiiiece!”

Dorians mental fog had lifted from what he was seeing. A dragon? Like they knew that there was more likely a dragon inside that egg but
to see the dragon actually there, with them. Excitement bubbled inside of him as he ran, snagging both April and Percy's hands in his and running full blast through the crowd of people who surrounded Danni and stopping just mere inches away from Danni. But there was no such thing as personal space between them. ”I'm an uncle?! Oh let me see my little niece!!!” Dorian said as he snagged the big little dragon off of Danni's shoulder and spun in a circle. ”She so cute! Fuck!” Dorian released one hand from the dragon and shook it in the air blood splattering a bit from where the claws had dug in. Giving back the dragon to Danni.

The moment that Dorian released Percy’s hand, he immediately took several steps back from the group. He’d been dragged all the way into Danni’s personal space, and with everyone else crowding around the baby dragon, it was a bit too much for Percy. Dorian touching him was something he was adjusting to - but the thought of everyone bumping into him as they tried to get a better view was mildly nauseating.

April didn’t share this problem though. Her eyes were wide with astonishment as she stared at the precious baby girl, giggling as Dorian took the dragon from Danni and spun her in the air. “Oh my god Danni you’re a dad now!!! That’s so cool!! Can I hold her? Please? Pleeeeease? Ooo wait can I be her aunt then? Like the cool mysterious wine aunt? That would be such a vibe - not that I drink or anything but you know what I mean!!”

“Deeeee!” Danni screeched as he snatched AmĂ©lie away, who had sharp fucking claws and took part of shirt with him. He quickly gathered AmĂ©lie back into his arms, shushing the little distressed noises and murmuring little nothings until she was peeking curiously at people again. “Guys, ‘member she just ‘atched! Give ‘er more t’an a second!” Danni whined, but he did turn towards April so she could come up to her.

“Of course you’re ‘er auntie! But maybe don’t pick ‘er up? She snatched Dee so she might be a little overwhelmed. Come pet ‘er t’ough. Once we get ‘er settled in t’e dorm, we can ‘ave ‘er get used ta you and you can snuggle wit’ ‘er t’en.” AmĂ©lie snuffed at the air and yawned.

Dorian stuck his finger to his mouth, sucking on the wound down the side of it. ”Yeah ‘er claws are way too sharp right now. But ‘ow can you expect me not to want to pick up my little niece t'e second I see ‘er?!”

”Awww who’s a good wittle baby girl?” April cooed, as she slowly reached out, letting the dragon sniff her hand a bit first before she started to pet her, starting up at the head like a cat. Her parents had never really let them own pets, but she tended to spend every single second of her summers home outside somewhere, and she loved to give the neighborhood cats a good scritch behind the ears when they’d let her. It’s you! Yes it’s you! You’re the good baby!!”

AmĂ©lie, after a hesitant moment, ate up the affection and Danni cooed at the sight. He was head over heels for this little dragon and so was everyone else, just like they should be. “I'm gunna love ‘er so much. Oh, I gotta start shoppin’ for a nice bed and toys and
 I gotta figure out what she eats. Probably meat but like, can dragon's ‘ave allergies? Can t'ey ‘ave chocolate or is it like dogs? Ugh, t'ere weren't any useful books last we checked. I'll probably ‘ave ta run ta all t'e magic profs, huh? Unless anyone ‘ere knows about dragons?” Danni looked around at the group before cooing at AmĂ©lie again. “I didn't know you were comin’ baby. I'm sorry I'm not very prepared but you can ‘elp me pick out whatcha like, can't you? And Imma make sure you're t'e most spoiled little dragon on campus!”

”She can borrow Amours bed for now since I left ‘er at ‘ome wit’ Pa and Appa during break. Apparently she needed to be “ ‘ousebroken” T'en when we get AmĂ©lie ‘er own bed and Pa sends it I can brin’ Amour back to school and we can get t'em acquainted! T'ey can be t'e best of friends!”

April gasped. my gods that’s going to be the absolutely cutest thing ever!!! A dragon and a dinosaur playing!!! Wait you guys you should put them on your channels!! This is the content the people deserve!!!”

Danni froze for a second before laughing nervously “Yeah, definitely somet'in’ ta t'ink about.” Danni hadn’t had a chance to catch April up on all the drama that had happened but for now, his channel was on hiatus. He wasn't looking forward to going through that conversation again. “We do need ta take a family photo of all of us when we ‘ave them bot’ ‘ere! Like, first t'in’!”

”Oh agreed! It'll probably take a bit of time to get t'ing's set up bot’ for AmĂ©lie and ‘avin’ ‘er on t'e show. So we may need to pause Kingstons Kitchen for a bit to give t'is little sweetheart as much attention as she deserves while also settin’ up a good way to ‘ave ‘er be in it. If you're alright wit’ a bit of a ‘aitus right now D?”

“Since we don’t have classes, maybe we go by the pet store today? Can look around and see what stuff they have? Or is there, like, a magical pet store? That should be a thing, right? Ooh! What if we opened a magical pet store - think of all the cute little costumes we could sell!!” April gushed, oblivious to Danni’s discomfort. She was feeling incredible and this adorable baby dragon was only boosting those feelings.

Danni felt like his head was full of cotton, the world dull and muted. He felt, distantly, a pair of hands on him and he could recognized Sabine was saying something, but the ringing in his ears was too much. He went with her easily, unable to resist if he wanted to. He recognized her concern and she was right to be concerned, but he couldn't get the words out to tell her he was the danger. The other fire was controllable, manageable, following all the appropriate rules for fire. Danni could explode again while she was right next to him. He really should shake her off. He still felt fragile, but he really needed somebody right now and he wasn't selfless enough to push that away.

As the fire was finally extinguished, Danni would have been able to breathe easier if not for one final middle finger from an already terrible situation. Danni clung to Sabine, coughing violently, as he inhaled a face full of smoke. The burning in his lungs helped, however. Some of the cotton in his head got loose at the pain ave he could actually get words out. “T'anks, Beanie.” Danni managed between coughs, shivering as the cold from the water started finally registered and he stumbled towards his dorm and the group huddled outside it, still white knuckle gripping Sabine like a lifeline.

However, Danni froze when he heard it. Faintly, from inside his bag, the quietest little crack and something heavy shifted slightly against his back. Danni froze again. There was only one thing in his bag- Danni's internal thoughts stopped as he heard a much louder one and he swung his bag in front of him, hunching over it to shield it from the water as he opened up his bag.

Red scales that once comprised the egg littered the inside of the bag and more were falling off as the baby inside worked at clawing it's way out. Larger cracks formed on the exposed surface and finally, a piece crumbled out. Then Danni was scrambling towards the nearest stairwell, kicked it open, and took the stairs down three at a time, only coming to a stop outside the building where the water was soaking him.

Inside his bag, and quickly demanding to be let out, was the most perfect, beautiful, little scales creature in the world. A light orange with little ridges on its back, wings still weak but claws snatching weakly at the little bits of membrane and shell sticking to it, his dragon was absolutely adorable. “Oh my god, oh my god, you are so fickin’ cute!!” Danni cooed. At his voice, the dragon looked up and Danni was head over heels. It reached out with one of its little (for a dragon. It was about the size of a small dog so Danni figured that was small) and Danni reached out to tap it, squealing as it brought his finger to his snout and sniffed at it.

“Hi, little baby. Who's t’e most precious little creature on t'e planet? You are, yes you are!”

Danny Kingston
Location: Dorm Hallway
Skills: Pyrokinesis


Leah started booking it, walking with all the determination Danni knew she had. “Maybe if t'is super'ero stuff doesn't work out, I can be a motivational speaker.” Danni mused, skipping along with Leah. He got Leah over her fear of making plans, maybe he could get others over their fears! He really should write that down but if superheroics didn't work out, Danni would probably eat himself into a coma and die of dehydration from crying.

However, his grim future was interrupted by Princess and he frowned at the thought of Diana of all people alone in their dorms. Like, they didn't really get along so was she trying to prank them? All he did was offer to light her arrows up, but he didn't actually do it when she said not to (which he should get a gold star for impulse control, thank you very much!) So he didn't know what she was getting revenge for.

Still, not like they really had anything to hide but they'd have to make sure everything was as it should be. Dee once threatened to swap all his hair product with generic 5 in 1 garbage after he'd deleted one of Dee's save files by accident and Danni had checked everything obsessively for weeks. Danni didn't think Diana would, but who knew what nefarious things someone sneaking into another person's Dorm would do. What is she changed out his hair dye?

He was halfway through a response, tongue stuck out as he focused on typing and walking behind Leah, when several things happened very quickly. Firstly, his phone buzzed. Secondly, he bit his tongue and tossed his phone in surprise. Finally, he felt fire boiling under his skin and in the brief moment where he was scrambling for his phone, cursing the sudden taste of copper, and reeling over Dee’s text, he slipped up and fire erupted from him in the dorm hallway.

“Merde! Danni swore, jumping approximately fifteen feet in the air as the floor and the wall next to him was suddenly burning. He stared down the hall where Dee stood with Percy's arm wrapped around his waist and honestly, Danni felt


Betrayed.

For the second time in as many weeks, Danni felt his life burning to the ground. Yes, some of it was certainly the fact that Danni had set the dorms on fire and was currently standing next to it, but mostly it was because once again, Danni'd lost something. Dee and Danni had been two halves on the same coin, attached at the hip, sharing everything together. They shared parents (Maxie and Benji were basically his parents too), friends, clothes, games, food. Literally their entire life. And now there was something Danni couldn't share, didn't want to share, and he felt replaced. Dee found someone who could do more with him, do something Danni wouldn't, and Danni felt like he’d be seeing Percy next to Dee more often and he’d be left alone.

He reached out to grab the flames, but he froze. The hunger in the fire, the glass case pressing in, Arcade’s laughter creeping up on him, and he couldn’t bring himself to do anything. What would happen if it got worse? What happened if he did burn everything down again, just like home?

“Help.” Danni whimpered, trembling where he was frozen in fear.
