Julia quickly attempted to compose herself the best she could. Nothing, absolutely nothing seemed to be able to reduce her to an emotional child like thinking about her dead mother seemed to. Not even her...interesting family situation did that any more, that was what it was. She4 didn't know why it affected her, but it did. Done, she went to lunch.

Vanessa stretched and decided to head to lunch. She could have skipped it, like she did at school, but there were far less kids in this camp than at her school, and the (slightly creepy) head counselors would probably notice and punish her for some stupid reason. Whatever. She stuck her noise canceling headphones into her ear and started blasting one of her favorite bands. People liked to get on to her about how loud music for long periods of time was damaging to a person's ears, and it certainly was for most people, but because it was technology, she was able to make sure it wouldn't hurt her. Of course, she didn't tell them that - revealing she was some sort of freak with powers would not end well for her - so she just smiled and nodded, all the while tuning out.
She was so deep into her thoughts and her music that she didn't even notice herself tripping until she had tripped and was falling to the ground.
