Got good news. My mom got a clear positive result on her scans. I'll be back in a day or two after I get raucous drunk from celebrating!!! (And recover from the hangover).


Also that's fantastic news!! :) Welcome back!
If @Natty and @The Kid Lantern are cool with it I am going to cut Mexxa off. I need to focus on studying and trying to wean down on my characters without dropping all my RPs.

I know someone wanted to make a Kid Nova so if they want I can have Mexxa lose hers on the way to Earth unless Natty and KL decide to discontinue the GoK as a team full stop anyway.




This is also because I realllllyyy wanna still do Future Imperfect.


If that's how you feel then i'm cool with it!

Apologies btw if it seems i've been inactive here recently. I must admit that i've been distracted a lot, both with Jessica Jones and another RP. Procrastination is also a thing too!

I'll try and get my next America post up this weekened. Going to be honest though and say that i'm not exactly too happy with the way her current story arc is going. Like I can picture what i want to happen in my head, but i just can't put it down in a post. After that arc though, things should get better as i have a clearer idea as to what i want her to do, inregards to both single mini arcs, the Avengers and forming the Young Avengers.

In regards to Iceman, i know i've said this before Dedonus, but let me know when you want to work on the collab! :) Understand that you're busy though so take your time man!

As for Troll, @The Kid Lantern unless you want to do what Sep said and discontinue the team, i'd be happy to try and get something in the Titanpad. Although honestly we haven't used that thing in ages :P
@Natty I absolutely love that Casey measures currency in Peppermint Mochas. I do the same with my precious Caramel Macchiato (though I'm still in Pumpkin Spice Latte season at the minute); it really tickled me to read. I thought I was the only person who could possibly be that white, but it seems I've found a kindred spirit in Casey.


Well how else is he going to measure currency?!
CASEY HARPER


Casey nearly swore out loud when Mrs Brown announced the title of this year’s production. Luckily the faerie managed to recollect himself before he did so, but the reveal did cause quite a stir both inside his head, as well as among the rest of his classmates. Honestly, Casey couldn’t care less about whether or not this new play was written by William Shakespeare, or even by that idiotic Donald Trump. Actually, if it had been written by Trump, Casey would’ve just left. No, what Casey was really annoyed about was that now he had gone and bought a copy of Macbeth for nothing! That book had been expensive! Especially since he had decided to go all out and get it in Hardback. That was $30 he was never getting back. That could have been, what? Like five or six peppermint mochas? Talk about ridiculous!

With a melodramatic sigh, Casey pushed the book feebly off of his desk and into his bag, before taking a look at the new book which Miss Brown placed in front of him. At long last, a smile stretched across Casey’s face as he instantly recognised the character displayed on the cover! Dark Vader. No... Darth Vader. Yes, that was it. Sure Casey had never seen the films, due to them being from before his time, but he knew that they were popular. Thinking about it, the films being from before his time probably wasn’t much of an excuse, especially due to his love for Nick, Joe, and Kevin. Either way, he had yet to see the films. They were set in space right? In the future? Casey had to admit that it would be an interesting comparison in regards to the usual performances the school held, where they put on tales from long ago and in places far, far away from the nature of this modern world. Casey was seriously starting to around to this idea. The character on the cover; Darth Vader, looked to be someone with seriously odd fashion senses. Something Casey could get behind.

Casey was about to dive right into the wonderful world of Star Wars, when someone beginning to speak to him caught his attention. The green haired teen removed his eyes from the page and turned to look at his neighbour. Tanya was beautiful, a talented musician, and could even turn into a bird woman. To put it straight, the young woman had everything going for her in life.

Casey smiled at her as she spoke. Her accent was cute. Foreign? Casey honestly couldn’t place where it was from. That wasn’t all that surprising. Casey’s geographical knowledge of this realm wasn’t all that great. Before she could finish speaking however, a call from the back of the room caused the two of them to turn their heads. Mari was calling them over. That was certainly a surprise. Casey had never spoken to her much. Well physically anyway. Oh Casey had imagined having numerous conversations with her, with him having thought up a number of flirtatious remarks in regards to her beauty. Those remarks however were perfectly fine staying firmly in his head. He’d seen what had happened to her friend Freddie when he had made a comment about her in the past.

The faerie smiled at Tanya as she spoke once more as she too invited him to join them. “Well, it certainly beats sitting here by myself!” He gave returned her smile, before following her across the room and towards his new reading group.

It would seem that not everyone in the class was a fan of Miss Brown’s choice of literature. That was certainly the case for Freddie, whose angry face was the first thing Casey noticed as he took his seat. The second thing was the lightning, which cracked loudly overhead like gun fire. The faerie watched in amazement as the British teenager rose to his feet, before reciting what could only be the kid’s favourite passage in Macbeth. Casey grinned from ear to ear. Even he couldn’t have opposed a teacher in such a dramatic and beautifully executed way. This guy… He had style. And balls. This guy certainly had balls. He watched in glee as Freddie made his way towards the door, before turning back towards them at the table and seemingly summoning Mari to join him. Was the dream team breaking up so soon?

As soon as Freddie departed, dispelling the fog he had created as he did so, the room was met with silence as Miss Brown and the rest of the class seemed to be trying to process whatever had just occurred. Casey however, now bored at the lack of chaos, opened his book and turned to the first page.

“So, should we start with Act 1?” He asked cooly, glancing up at Tanya and Mari as if nothing had happened.
Wait i'm pretty sure i actually own one of those Shakespeare Star Wars books @Lord Wraith

I'll work on a reply either later this evening or tomorrow! One have two episodes of Jessica Jones left so i'm going to finish that first!
With the large number of players, i thought the idea of basically setting up small squads in a similar manner to New X-men: Academy X may be good? Maybe have different teachers act as sponors/leaders or tutors for the team members?

However i also like Tyler's idea! :)
Well that settles it! Timeskip to graduation then?
@Natty Eeeeeeeeeey, Casey can talk to Tanya.


Well i certainly couldn't leave her all alone with Kiwi!
CASEY HARPER


Casey Harper had decided to start his morning with a pleasant scroll around the campus, an activity that the young faerie hadn’t done since back during his first year at the Corrigan School. It was nice to be among the trees, as it gave Casey ample opportunity to think about the important things in life. In this case, who was the most attractive Jonas Brother? Each of the three has something different to bring to the table. Kevin has that loving father thing about him with that kid of his. Joe’s the resident bad boy. Or was anyway. That all changed when Nick stole the show all those years ago, with the hunk of man splashing out on his own. Oh that settled it. Nick was Casey’s favourite. The young faerie smiled at the thought and was about to even marvel aloud as to what a good day this was turning out to be so far. That was when the rain started, causing Casey’s mood to plummet.

The sudden change of weather snapped the pointed eared teen back from his day dream, making him remember that he was actually incredibly exhausted. He sighed loudly in an overly dramatic fashion, running his delicate hands up his face and through his now damp, mint coloured hair, before moving them down and rubbing his bare arms. As he watched the rain begin to drizzle down around him, Casey realized that he probably wasn’t suitably dressed for the current change. Looking down slightly, as he navigated himself under the shade of a large coniferous tree, he took in what he had decided to wear this morning, his mind filling with regret. A green shirt over a white t-shirt, with a pair of denim short shorts just to top it off. He had neglected to put on shoes either, due to his love of the feel of grass between his toes. What a fucking idiot he had been. That was the last time he was trusting the weather report on that blasted news channel.

Deciding that the only thing that could calm him now was coffee, the faerie speedily continued on his way, directing himself towards the Banquet Hall. No…not Banquet Hall. Mess Hall. Oh, humans really did have juvenile names for things.

It didn’t take long for him to arrive at the building, but the journey hadn’t been short enough to stop Casey from getting drenched. Wiping his now slightly muddy feet against the building’s floor, he made his way into the queue at the coffee area. It didn’t take long until he was moving away from the counter with his new bought beverage; a peppermint mocha, with Casey taking a place at an empty table. He gazed around the room as he drank the delicious beverage, intent on spotting someone he knew.

At the sight of Amethyst, Casey gave a quick and a polite smile, only for it to quickly fade after realizing that she hadn’t seen him. Figures! He was about to move his gaze on when she began to angrily argue with the barista. Casey simply watched excitedly, a bemused smile upon his face. This could get interest. Especially since from what he had heard, this girl had quite the temper sometimes! Eventually however, Amethyst ceased her arguing and by the looks of it settled with buying a regular coffee. Casey frowned, disappointed by the lack of action, although little did he know the fun wasn’t about to stop there.

As she moved away, Casey watched as an obscene comment from a passing student caught her attention. Casey’s crafty smile began to creep across his face once more as Amethyst’s eyes changed in colour, resulting in chaos for the other student, whose coffee tray seemed to give way, resulting in the burning hot liquid to fall all over him. Casey let out a short laugh from where he was sat, only for it to die out at the sight of the insufferable wand-waving Richard himself seemed to jump into the action. With a few twirls of his fucking twig, he seemed to save by day by getting rid of the spilt coffee, and saving the student from being scolded. Boring!

What made the situation even better though was that he then went on to confront Amethyst. Twig boy just had to read her her rights, didn’t he? The idiot. Casey watched in glee as a newcomer approached; Rick, and boy did he not look happy with Richard. Could today not get any better?

Casey rose from his seat and crept forward, intent to get a better vantage point so that he could hear better. He watched in bemusement as the trio argued, with Casey’s tempted to give a quick cheer when Rick decided to grab Richard by the shirt. That was when Casey spotted the time however, after noticing another student nearby murmur something about getting to class. Really? Class now? As much as Casey really wanted to see Richard get a pummelling, he really didn’t want to be late for Miss Brown’s class again. Boy, could that women raise her voice when she needed to.

Swearing slightly under his breath, Casey whipped the small specks of whipped cream from his drink of his face, and headed off to class, making sure however to use this situation to his advantage and walk directly past Rick, Richard, and Amethyst. He stopped briefly as he passed them, giving Rick a slight tap on the shoulders.

“Mind breaking that magic stick of his, while you’re at it?” He jested, before carrying on towards the Quadrangle.

"Alright class, before we begin are we missing anyone today?" Miss Brown asked surveying the gathered group. As he spoke, Casey darted into the room, giving the woman a mocking salute as he did so. His feet were now even dirtier than before, despite the fact that the rain had stopped on his way here. A puddle had been the cause for that. A puddle which Casey had angrily swore at in front of a range of students, causing a chorus of laughter.

Having used what was the last of his positive energy for the day in giving Miss Brown that salute, Casey collapsed back into the chair next to Tanya nonchalantly, reaching into his bag for his copy of Macbeth. Luckily for him, they weren’t due to start ‘A Midsummer Night's Dream’ for a few months now, which filled Casey with a brief amount of joy as he wouldn’t have to endure the jokes about him being the perfect choice for Oberon until then. Playing the King of the Faeries was something that Casey certainly didn’t have an interest in anymore.
Once a few more people have posted, i'll get my next America one up!

Also @Dedonus let me know whenever you want to start the next Iceman collab! :)
