Sporting their favorite outfit, a magenta tracksuit with a matching newsboy cap over their armor, Captain Endemia sat in the highest row of the amphitheater. They had learned early on that students were fond of throwing things, often sharp things which could slip between Endemia's armor and unleash their gifts on the school. While the idea excited the captain, the faculty made it very clear that such an accident would result in expulsion... Out of a cannon... Into the sun. That idea was not exciting. The captain watched as the other students filed in, and despite their best attempts at subtlety, it was incredibly obvious they were looking. The suit, for all the good it did everyone, had a few flaws such as the helmet being connected to the torso. To look to their sides, the captain had to twist at the waist and the bulkiness of the suit combined with the bright colors naturally drew eyes to their direction. Deciding that it might seem less weird if they spoke to the passing students, Endemia cleared their throat and made an attempt. [color=a187be]"Hi... Hello... There's a seat here... Hey..."[/color] Perhaps it was their mysterious aura, or the sound of the speaker, or maybe even their fashion sense; but whatever it was, people seemed to walk faster when passing by the kind and generous captain. Eventually Endemia noticed just how empty the seats around them were, and they slouched into their seat, hoping to make themself less visible. Hopefully the speech would start soon and they could be spared of further embarrassment. Almost as if their thoughts were heard, the speech soon started and Endemia forgot their shame. The headmaster promised all sorts of fun and excitement but were soon followed by sinister laughter, which honestly was expected. Perhaps the fun would involve lava hot tubs or an eight hour bus ride to somewhere fun, immediately followed by an eight hour bus ride back since the field trip is only a day long. [color=a187be]"Fun. Woohoo. So excited."[/color] They struggled with feigning excitement, but even if they managed to pull it off, the suit's speaker would have made it sound the same as this feeble attempt. [color=a187be]"Into the portal we go."[/color]
