Course, there was only so much that hoping could go. First she starts to smile, in a way that slightly unnerved Claire. She didn't know what the fuck was up with it, but she knew that the girl was up to no good. Then it turned to a more rabid look, that reflected what she was probs feeling deep down. That cocky kind of smile that those little alpha bitches liked to give before being well, bitches. [color=lightgray][i][b]”What gives you the right to always be such a bitch?”[/b][/i][/color] What? Claire was wondering if this bitch had some kind of death wish. She was just some bookish nobody that wandered into this town (and Claire can tell a stranger 'round these parts), and she was [i]really[/i] trying to go there? No, oh no. Claire would let the weed thing slide by her being stupid, but now, she was pushing it. She took a step forward, and bared her teeth, giving Rita a heavy poke in the chest. Making sure to dig her finger in really deep. "You wanna know just [i]what[/i] gives me the right to be such a bitch...?" Claire hissed at Rita, leaning in real close, and staring her right in the eye... before she felt that strange outward pull that she felt so much earlier. "Three fuckin' [i]years[/i] of beatings, and other bullshit, at the hands of my asshole parents. That's what, motherfucker!" She growled as she revealed way too much than she ever should have in one second - in front of so many people. "So next time you wonder 'why am I such a bitch'," Claire said, very annoyed, before she gave Rita a shove with the same hand she was just poking her with, "There's your[i] fuckin'[/i] answer." Then she just realized what she said - what slipped out of her mouth in anger. She covered her mouth with both hands out of shock. "What the fuck!?" She whispered into her own hands. This... this just wasn't like her. Claire normally would [i]never[/i] reveal that much about herself even to close friends - not even in anger. There was some fuckshit going on!

It felt like it was the end for Lynette, and Aliana was too busy gawking to really understand the weight of the situation. But, right when she was about to apologize, she noticed that they didn't even [i]notice[/i] her - Or Aliana for that matter. She raised an eyebrow, then started to figure out just what Aliana was gawking at. She saw the rest of the mirror, and realized that her reflection wasn't showing. Okay, this was weird... but, not exactly unwelcomed. The people were arguing with each other, it took one quick look for Lynette to realize that it was Penny. [i]It was Penny taking the fall for what Lynette did.[/i] She couldn't say that Penny didn't deserve it, but it didn't exactly feel right. She noticed the blood that was on her arm, and wanted to question if she had a hand in it. But, she knew that she had to take advantage of this while it lasted. She took a step, and there was some light glass crunching that was unnoticed in all the screams and shouts. She leaned forward and put a finger up to Aliana's lips, and gestured towards the door. The both slowly walked towards the door - right as Penny stormed out the door stayed open unnaturally long while the two girls slipped out under the cloak. After getting out the room, Lynette tried her best to catch up with Penny as the cloak inadvertently wore off - or she outpaced how fast it could keep her cloaked. "Penny!" Lynette called out.

Justin parroted what Min said in a near-mocking tone. "I'm here to check up on my girl, the fuck do you think?" He decided to cut the passive aggressive bullshit short in favor of [i]active-[/i]aggression. He wasn't in the mood for Min's condescending bullshit - he never was, really, but now especially. He narrowed his eyes, as he took a step towards Min, making his intentions that he wasn't going to back down clear. Taking another step until they weren't too much further away from each other, he stared him down. "How's about you mind your business for once?" He spat out "Your bitch-ass will last a little longer." He clenched his fist - but his passion was flaring, and that triggered that abstraction. Not exactly in a noticeable way. That sigil on his back began to glow a bright red color that burned through his shirt, and there was a wave of heat that came off his body. A light flicker of flames appeared on his hands.

"We're in sooooooooo much danger of catching fire," Jordan bitterly spat out as she began her march outside. She was slow and deliberate not just because of her leg, but because she was afraid of somebody knocking her over. With how fucked up her leg is, it only took a bump before she needed crutches for a few months (again). Kimberly was at her side, fortunately, supporting that bad side of her as she tried to move. It took them a little while, they eventually made it outside the building to the parking lot. The parking lot was where they were told to meet if the fire alarm ever went off - though, Kimberly was wondering if there was even a fire. She shook her head as she found her car, and the two girls leaned up against it. Kimberly quickly whipped out her phone and started checking her youtube stats - she was getting some new subscribers. She could only pump her fist. "You seem awfully excited for school almost being shut down," Jordan asked as she sighed... just trying to start up a conversation. "Nah, it's nothing," Kimberly put her phone in her pocket, as she reached into her satchel for something. She was bored - she didn't know what to really do, or talk about, while she waited for this to blow over. She pulled out her camera... and while she didn't exactly like photography like she used to, she just fiddled with it. "Hey Rien, by the way..." Kimberly just shrugged as she asked, "Do you still draw?"
