This is the place where Archie was, but the moment Nat walked in the door, it dawned on her that she had no idea what she'd say, and there were other people here, so it wasn't a place she could break down. She had to stay strong, and ironically that wasn't something she was good at. She started to walk over. Her body langue betrayed the fact that she was nervous. She kind of nervous an employee had knowing they were about to get yelled at by their boss. She decided she'd say something once she reached him, but the moment she started to say something, it all came out. Stuff she'd desperately wanted to share with someone all this time. Things she'd been wishing she could say to Archie. It all came out in a mess.

"Hay, Archie. I'm....I'm sorry. Taking a break was a mistake and I'm sorry if it hurt you. I don't think it even fixed anything or made anything better. I just didn't want to burden you. I didn't want you to see me as a total mess. A wreck of a person. I...I was scared. It's like every time I make a choice that makes me feel happy or normal, somebody gets hurt. It's like it was my fault. I know it's not, but just thinking about doing anything else after Homecoming just caused a wave of guilt and fear to wash over me....Can you accept my apology? And can we, like, I dunno. Carry on? Like, as boyfriend and girlfriend? I'd like that."

Lydia Creel



Lydia could immediately sense that there was something between Binx and Charlotte. Lydia wouldn't say she was jealous, but if either of the siblings were interested in her, she'd be blushing like a maiden and giggling like a schoolgirl. So she was glad they didn't, as if she was sharing a room with someone, she would prefer a more straightforward relationship. Binx was a little awkward but got the message across. But Charlotte. Charlotte was something else. It was almost intimidating how sexy she was when she tried to flirt. Of course. A city full of the children of superheroes. Lydia was no beauty queen but she'd never been bad looking. But here? She could very well be chopped liver.

The pair were then interrupted, thankfully, by some new arrivals. One of whom had a voice that Lydia immediately recognised. So she was at this school after all. Lydia never knew she had powers. She assumed she didn't. Looks like she'd been wrong about that. Lydia approached both the new girls, and offered them both handshakes. She was especially interested in what Riley's power was, and this was her sneaky little way of finding out.

"This is 1-D. You're in it. Him, I'm Lydia. Actually a fan of yours, HulkStan. Followed your streams back when I was in New York. Nice to actually meet you in the flesh."

She turned to Jessica. "And you are?"

Natalie was in the park, sitting on a bench, staring vacantly at the pond. This had become a habit. Ever since Homecoming. Things were going so well. She felt normal. She'd kissed Archie and it was like the floodgates opened. She felt happy and excited and trult content. Then it was immediately taken away. Airanna was there. Upon seeing Radvi....Natalie had shut down. There was chaos around her, but she'd frozen. Sounds became just noise. Archie had picked Eli up, said something and walked away. People came and took her to her room. She must have been walking with them but she didn't remember moving her feet.

There was no point. There was no point even trying to be a person while Arianna was out there. The toll Homecoming had taken on Natalie's mental health was very noticeable to her therapist, who was helping. Natalie's nightmares were worse. Her temper had gotten worse, and she would cry a lot. With little warning. Sometimes in public. She had seen Archie exactly once since Homecoming, just over a week after, but she told him she needed to get well before they had a second date.

Natalie wasn't sure if she was better now. If the pain has lessened or if she'd just grown numb to it. Either way, she would be seeing her friends today, and she now considered them all friends, even Archie. It was December the 5th. There would be new recruits to The Promise. Maybe some new blood might help things...somehow.

There was a new text from Cara.

"New arrivals scheduled to board at 1PM! Be at the Loading Bay or be square!"

As her phone was already out, Natalie started writing a text to Archie. She ideally wanted to see him private first, and not in a big noisy group, in public. She deleted and rewrote her message several times, before just deleting the whole thing in frustration. She'd gotten rusty, and wanted this first text in a while to be good. Then she got an idea. She wasn't sure if it was a good one. But she was going to do it.

"Cara?" She asked into her phone. "Could you tell me the current location of Archie Anderson?"
Jamin Redman




The alarm clock was put on snooze. For the fourth time that morning. Benjamin decided to reluctantly open his eyes to read the time, and immediately shout out of bed fueled by panic and adrenaline. He was going to be late! How did it manage to get so late without his notice?!

Hastily throwing on a black Wu-tang clan t-shirt and the nearest pants he had to hand, which were sweat pants, Jamin descended the stairs, grabbed his schoolbag, shouted a quick "Ma! I'm late! I'll see you later!" in the direction of the kitchen, and grabbed his jacket. He was already out the door and running along the sidewalk by the time he finished putting it on. There was no way he'd be able to make it in time on foot. Maybe. Maybe just this once...




Jamin had arrived at the classroom only a few minutes late, which was notably early for him. However at present he was inside the natural history museum. The bus ride had been uneventful. This whole day was, as far as Jamin was concerned, a write-off. It was an excuse to not be at school. He rummaged through his bag, taking out his headphones and a Sony Walkman, and was about to use them when he overheard one of his classmates remind them that they'll probably be tested on this. He inwardly cursed to himself. She was right, of course. Now that she mentioned it, they definitely would. He watched the student who'd given him this food for thought as she left. Aela Avdol. Not somebody who Jamin thought had any leg to stand on when it came to putting the work in. Not that she had to. She seemed to be naturally talented, while Jamin's approach to scholarly success usually involved playing it cool until the last possible second and then pulling a panicked all-nighter in order to get a B or C.

So, Jamin decided to look around. Most of the things he read were forgotten the moment he took his eyes away from the signs. However, one of the attractions finally caught his attention. It was a little Terracotta toy cart, made in some country he'd never heard the name of, dating back to a number he wouldn't remember BC. Still, it raised a chuckle out of him. Guess even back then, kids played with Hot Wheels.
I am definitely interested

Natalie wiped her mouth and managed a little chuckle in reply to Archie's laugh. Now he was no longer nervous, she was much more relaxed too. She still wouldn't go as far as to say she wasn't nervous, though. His hand running up her back had felt weird. Not good or bad, but like....like it made her entire nervous system glitch out for a second. Archie then downed his drink, making a show of it, and Natalie giggled and clapped as he did so. She was actually genuinely impressed he'd managed to do that with something stronger than what Natalie had taken a small sip of. He clearly didn't enjoy that but if impressive things were easy, they wouldn't be impressive.

She conceded that her drink was strong, and these 'jello shots' might be the way to go. That's when she noticed that Lynn's face betrayed that she wasn't having a good time, and Lynn went further into the woods. Eli and Amelia went after her, so Nat didn't feel the need to get up herself and check on Lynn. She wasn't sure if she'd be welcome anyway. Lynn was in good hands. She'd have to check up on Lynn later, though. For now she took another, smaller sip of her drink. It was actually very sweet but the rum was still overpowering. She didn't cough this time, at least.

Archie's heart monitor went off, and Natalie put her drink down, and put her hand on Archie's arm. "It's okay. I know how annoying those things are. They gave me a shock collar on the first day, if you remember, when they thought my...condition was caused by heart rate too, instead of fear. They are annoying, but they're necessary."
Thank you. And if you ever need an enemy stand user to get killed, hit me up too.
Awwww, is this full? Anyway, I think I'll keep an eye on this canon anyway.
