Who's that guy holding the phone? Why is he filming? Is he trying to catch out the new kids? What's he going to do with the footage? Johnny was, of course, going to something with it. His first, and best, friend Elijah was making an app for the school, in a Zuckerberg-esque (or was it Winklevoss-esque?) endeavor to give the school its own social media platform. The project had his full support, especially when he got recruited as resident camera man. He got to make the introductory video, interviews, and filming important stuff for articles. He'd take the best parts of the footage, edit out the sound and put in a voice-over. So the freshman that nervously tripped over, then looked at the camera was safe. For now. He could see face behind him reflected in the phone screen. Specifically, Archer Diedrikson ducking behind his car door, looking nervous. He always saw Archer doing stuff like that, but never thought anything of it. People do weird stuff all the time, himself included. He didn't mind Archer being weird either way, he was a nice guy. In the hopes that he would see, Johnny gave a thumbs up in his direction, hoping he would see. He filmed for a little longer before hearing a voice call his name. [Colour=35A2ED][b]"Hey Johnny! Already filming, huh?"[/b][/colour] He smirked, recognising the voice. Min Jiyeon, fellow photography nerd. He nodded, eyes glued to the screen. [b][colour=seagreen]"You bet I am, my friend. Eli told me to get some rough footage for a video on the app, so here I am. Say what you will about phone cameras, but they do have a found footage appeal."[/colour][/b] His eyes flicked up to her, then back down. He wanted a documentary feel for his intro video, it was more appealing to students than those polished, masterfully edited ones you find on official websites. Feels more authentic. He would have gone into a long speech on the merits of found-footage style documentaries, but was met with another person. [Colour=#E0633C][b]"You should probably put that away, you're starting to scare the children."[/b][/colour] He looked up from his phone this time, albeit briefly, chuckling at his friend. He had known Bea since they worked on a school project together, and they were firm friends since. Plus, he loved The Dads™, insane as they were. [b][colour=seagreen]"Yeah, as if. They'll learn to live with it. Poor unfortunate souls."[/colour][/b] He gave an evil cackle, before looking up at Bea again, smiling. [b][colour=seagreen]"They're newbies, it's part of their job to be scared of the seniors. Anyway, how are your crazy fathers?"[/colour][/b] Again, his conversation was cut off by a new member, though this time it was a new member of everything. [b][colour=366501]"Um, hey, Johnny,"[/colour][/b] said the awkward voice. Johnny's mum worked at a hospital, where she met Alice Howard, mother to the Howard triplets. Though Kate and Paul were decent (well, Kate was decent, Paul was a douchebag), he quickly became friends with Dylan, nerd and inhibitor of The Closet. He easily guessed Dylan's sexuality, but never pointed it out. Dylan would get it eventually. [b][colour=seagreen]"Hey there! Don't get too nervous, some people here can smell fear. But don't mind these two, they're harmless. Guys, this is Dylan, he just moved here."[/colour][/b] He pointed at Bea and Min, deciding it would be good for Dylan to integrate into his group. [b][colour=seagreen]"This is Min, she's great with cameras. And this is Bea, she can draw like no-one's business."[/colour][/b] He noticed Oli Grayson waving at him. He raised a hand in greeting. [b][colour=seagreen]"And that's Oli. He's a nice guy, but you may want to stay clear of him for a bit. He notices everything."[/colour][/b] Oil was a good source of information, and Johnny liked to take photos for the school newspaper in return. A nice system. He was about to explain why he was filming, when he heard a cry of [b][colour=565386]"SHALOM!"[/colour][/b] from across the entrance. Ah, the famed mating cry of Elijah Abrams. Johnny smirked switching off the camera for a second to text his best friend, who was clearly in dire peril.
