I'm tentatively interested. There's potential in the basic premise. What are our character's chosen by?
So, what happened so far since the timeskip and who's where?

Madison didn't waste any time in replying to Wiseman's information, and rushed over to the crumbling building, counting the houses as she ran. She needn't have bothered. It was the only one with a rescue team struggling at the front door as destribed. Said rescue team would be shocked by a single strand of steel wire flying past them and into one of the cracks. The pile of wire reformed itself into Madison on the other side. There were two children inside who scooted away from her in fear when they saw her unnaturally turn herself from a pile of metal wire into a person.

It was heartbreaking. Madison briefly looked away so that they couldn't see the emotions on her face. She was sad, and she was angry. It had been the same with the couple she'd rescued earlier. As if they found her scarier than the danger they were in. She was trying to save their lives! They could be grateful! Or at least, just, not...not this...

She couldn't let the children see her face with anything but a smile. At times like this it was more important than ever to be a beacon of hope. The reason Heroes wore costumes, had catchphrases, appeared on television, instead of just being employed as anonymous police officers, was because they were symbols. Role models. Bringers of feelings of security and optimism. Heroes didn't just save they day. Their job was also to make people think 'Heroes will save the day.'

She finally found the strenth to smile, and crouched down to gently reassure the kids. She told them that it was okay, and that they were going to be safe. She asked them if they were hurt. They shook their heads but didn't move. She asked them if they had any favourite snacks. The girl shuffled awkwardly and answered "Chocolate."

Madison smiled at her.

"I like chocolate too."




The rescues continued. Madison didn't stop to rest. Didn't stop to look around. All she could focus on were finding people in danger, taking them to one of the medical tents and repeating the process. Alisa spoke in her ear as she was leaving, informing her that somebody had caused this distaster but weren't here right now, and that Jareth was investigating a site of interest.

A boy on a sretcher stared right at her, catching her eye, and was struggling against the medics as he shouted hysterically. Wht he was saying was matching with Alisa's update. Wireframe approached the boy.

"Please calm down. I believe you, and I can also assure you that you're safe here now." Wireframe soothed, setting her watch to record and transmit directly to Alisa. "Now can you please tell me everything you remember in as much detail as you can?"
I haven't been keeping track of this but I'll finally have time to post from the 26th
Don't want to outright leave the thread yet but there's a possibility I won't find the time and energy to post until the new year
Sorry I've been really busy with work. I'm an Amazon delivery driver and it's black friday week
Im' recycling a character called Faith Ashdale. Her power is that her words, if they're in the form of commands, have a slight suggestive effect that gets stronger the more you trust her. So as a stranger she could let slip a "Don't worry" and you feel a little calmer. But she told her parents "forget about my ex" once and to this day they have no memory of his existence.

She'd likely join as an uncontrolled and make the lateral move to Hero.
Oooh, this looks interesting!

I already have a student *and* a teacher I'd like to use
Eilidh Chiron

Miyuki's suggestive comment may have gone over Eilidh's head if it wasn't then followed up with the fox lady staring at her as an uncomfortable silence descened upon the conversation. She breathed a sigh of relief when Miyuki began having a regular conversation. Eilidh had never considered her own sexuality too closely but one thing she did understand was that she had no attraction at all to non-centaurs. She would be happy to make the aquaintance ofMiyuki. Possibly even friends in time. But flirting was always going to make her ever so slightly uncomfortable. Miyuki then introduced herself, and bowed, which caused some...motion. Where did her confidence that there would be no wardrobe malfunctions come from? Did she have hidden clips or something? Eilidh once again felt a little inadequate.

"I'm Eilidh Chiron. A Centaur from Scotland. I've actually lived here for nine years, but I usually only leave Building 2 to jog in the morning. I was actually going to grab some breakfast now. I usually eat at Building 2 butI might eat at Building 1 today, just for the change."

The werewolf she spotted earlier ran past her with a real wardrobe malfuction. Now she got a look at her human form, she realised that it was Iris, her neighbor across the hallway. Eilidh considered calling out, but Iris did not hang around to stop for a conversation. The Centaur realised that she'd never really seen her wolf form before now. She should really make more of an effort to socialise with the other residents more, but the internet was just too amazing. Five minutes sirfing (or what feels like it) becomes 12 hours in the real world.
