She had seemed worried when Vicky mentioned she had had problems with magic, but Kate and America had dragged her into the maze with them before she could really respond. "Damn, that shit was crazy," Kate said, shaking her head slightly. "I know!" America agreed. "I'm a little surprised they let her do that..." "They're taking a while," Kate then noticed, glancing back towards the exit. A boy who had gone in after them that she didn't recognize, dressed as the Doctor from Doctor Who, had come out. Kate's eyebrows furrowed. She had a bad feeling about this...

Her nerves settled down a little bit, the spiral ending somewhat - maybe it was just the physical connection, maybe it was the fact that Leah was talking about her own emotions and it was easier to focus on those than April's abstract worries - but she started to feel better. It was like taking a painkiller and feeling the tension of a headache fade away gradually. [color=42A9FF]"Awww,"[/color] April said softly, moved by Leah's words. [color=42A9FF]"You're such a softie, Leah Jordan,"[/color] April teased with a big grin. She then gave her a kiss on the cheek. She would have grabbed one of the drinks from Mads, but her hands were a little full at the moment. And then Sabine set the agenda for beginning the best night ever - food. April wasn't incredibly hungry, but she knew that she would be. Honestly, her main interest would be in getting a tiny snack - maybe a chocolate covered strawberry or something if they had it - but she [i]really[/i] didn't want to mess up her makeup too bad. And with the announcement imminent, her nerves would doubtlessly come back and she didn't want to vom in front of everyone. Sabine and confided in her and Leah about her eating disorder, so April had no intention of doing anything like playfully feeding her girlfriends. Nor was she going to make either of them eat. If Sabine ever asked for her to help, she'd do what she could - but she wasn't going to make things worse by pushing on it. Besides, Sabine was the one saying to go get food, so that had to count for something, right? Danni was whining a bit about it, his arm slinked around hers and she giggled a bit - and then Sabine took her other hand, grabbing Leah's too. And Leah's arm was still around her. [color=42A9FF]"Eeep, you guuuuys, there's just one of me!!"[/color] April protested, even as she couldn't stop smiling so much her cheeks felt like they were going to explode. [color=42A9FF]"I'm going to fall!"[/color] she then added - it was somewhat hard to be walked along by three people at once, even in flats. [color=42A9FF]"Oh, darn! We should've asked around and seen if anyone had a pegasus, can you imagine if we had flown in here on Swift Wind? That would've been soooo iconic..."[/color] The food table would've made Princess Entrapta's heart soar, as it was mostly full of mini versions of food items - tiny cupcakes, tiny cookies, etc etc. Even the pizza was present in the form of what looked like pizza bagel bites. But while all the foods were individually tiny, there were [i]huge[/i] quantities available, and no teachers really limiting what people took. Additionally, there was a bowl of candy that seemed to be neverending, featuring sweets from around the world. [color=42A9FF]"Your paint is holding up super well, by the way,"[/color] April added, impressed that Danni was still pretty green - and that he wasn't getting green all over anyone else. She didn't have any free hands, so she still couldn't accept a drink from Mads - or grab one of the mini cupcakes catching her eye.

While this wasn't his scene, he could make a few educated guesses about it. Visibility was likely to be poor, and combined with the heightened emotions due to the intense fear, he could imagine it would be easy to get separated. A physical connection - an anchor, if you would - between the two of them would prevent that from happening. He hoped that he might provide a source of comfort for Dorian, if he were to be frightened terribly. It was his understanding that that was the type of thing romantic partners did for each other, and he didn't want Dorian to be shortchanged, just because Percy was different than everyone else. Not that anything had ever been officially diagnosed, of course, but Percy knew. He had always known. He held onto Dorian, following him in through the maze entrance. And while he was certain that he hadn't let go, he blinked and Dorian was gone. He was entirely alone. Percy frowned, narrowing his eyes. It was too hard to see, too dark, and he felt breath on the back of his neck. [i]"Беги, мальчик, беги!"[/i] Percy spun around, reflexively pulling the closest thing he had to a weapon - his sonic screwdriver - out of his pocket. And he came face to face with Ser Nemo. Or at least, it looked somewhat like Ser Nemo - a version of him in his 40s, rather than his late 1000s or however old he was. His hair was still dark and his eyes were uncannily familiar to Percy. He wore a smart suit with a logo on it - the TVA logo - and there was a sword sheathed to his side. [i]"Беги!"[/i] Not-Nemo screamed again. Something in Percy's gut told him to listen, and he took off in a sprint, choosing turns within the maze at random in an attempt to lose his pursuer. He tried to teleport, but something was blocking him - the blue energy formed around his hands, but he couldn't jump. Something was blocking him. And the next thing he knew, he had run straight into Not-Nemo - and Not-Nemo's hands were grasped onto Percy's head, digging into his eyes, as Percy screamed and screamed and -- -- found himself sweating, standing at the exit to the maze.
