[quote][color=6ecff6][b]Andrea:[/b][/color][indent] ■ Henry: "Every child and young adult that comes aboard this ship is afraid. Even if they hide it or don't want to admit. Every single one. I [i]know[/i]. I wasn't any different either. Henry was there for me. So was the rest of the faculty. They were there for [i]everyone[/i]. It might take them a while, but they'll learn to appreciate them. They'll learn to owe them [i]everything[/i]. Just like I did. ■ Wednesday: "She doesn't have to talk to me. She doesn't even have to like me. I don't even have to be a psychic. It's in her eyes. She was forced to do things she doesn't want to do. She got caught up in a storm. She got trapped. Whenever she is ready, I'll be there to talk to her and understand her. People want to be understood, especially after they've done terrible things. They want others to understand how someone could rationalize what they've done." ■ Jasmine: "I used to be like her. I mean, minus the sports. I might actually be more like her sister, but Jasmine's attitude was a lot like mine back in high school. Number me a mix between the two. I'm glad that she turned out alright! She still has her spunk, and I hope that doesn't go away." ■ Phoebe: "She's more of an academic like me, but she had to compete with her sister to get where she was. I didn't realize how lucky I was back then, because things just worked out for me. I look at Phoebe, though, and I see the girl I could've been. She's sixteen years old and she's already got a leader's spirit! I'd like to help her get to where she needs to be." ■ Lynwen: "I like her. She's not too energetic, so talking to her isn't going to exhaust me or anything, but she has passion. She buries it so most people can't see, but she's strong willed, honest, and means well. Who knows, maybe I can befriend her over yoga or something." ■ Elias: "He's a smart man who hides away in his office and pretends like he doesn't care. He does what he can, though, and I appreciate him. I doubt he wanted to keep me of all people around when I came aboard last year, but he's been patient. My only complaint is that I don't think he's nearly as patient or empathetic as he should be." ■ Archie: "I don't really understand him at all. Reading minds doesn't work if you don't understand how they think. But as someone who's been here a long time, I think he has a lot to offer to the community, so I guess I can't complain. But even after a year being here, I still don't know what to expect from him." ■ Gavin: "He seems like a sweet kid. I don't know why he gets as much flak as he does. Not everyone is good at the same thing, he just has to find what he is good at. It takes time and he's only sixteen. I get the feeling he's going to need a friend, and I'll try to be there for him if no one else will." ■ Abraham: "Honestly, he's scary. That's what I think. I try not to judge based on first impressions, but he's hiding something. There's a presence beneath his surface thoughts that's hard to access, and it's not good. There is some really bad stuff he's hiding in there. He built and tall, and he's cunning, and I don't think I can trust him. Even if he's hiding something that's hurting him, even his surface thoughts are suspicious, and three's too much potential for harm and... I... I don't know. I just think he's bad news." ■ Grit: "Pardon my ignorance, but I haven't been to America. Is this what it's like there? I thought the stereotypes were just that." ■ Uril: "He seems okay, but his power seriously bugs me. That just isn't right."
