[center][h2]1C Common Room[/h2][/center][hr] When Gene got to the common room, he saw that he wasn’t the first one there. There was another guy already in the common room, with black hair and a beard. Gene wasted no time in politely approaching him and offering his hand. May as well make friends with the people you’re going to be living with for the foreseeable future. [color=#D38E2B]”Hey. I’m Gene. What’s up?”[/color] he greeted casually yet in a friendly, approachable tone. Joziah saw a new person walk into the common area. Hmm, this man is strange as he seems very rough and even animal like. Well that and the fact that this man had a tail. Well, all manner of things exist because of mutations, so this is not the strangest thing. [Color=violet]"Hello! I'm Joziah. You know, the ceiling. How've you been?"[/color]. Joziah asks him out of kindness as he takes the man's hand and shakes it with a smile. While shaking hands, Gene delivered a dry ‘Hah!’ in response to the joke, but he was still smiling, so he must have appreciated it. [color=#D38E2B]”I’ve been alright. Flight up wasn’t too long. Can’t say I’m looking forward to classes. I’m basically here because I had to promise my mom. What about you? What’s your story? Actually, no. First answer me this,”[/color] Gene interjected, interrupting himself as he perked up and grinned. [color=#D38E2B]”What’s your superpower?”[/color] Joziah held a smile and listened to Gene’s feelings, his travel, and why he was here. Gene asked Joziah of why he was here and his power, not the strangest things to ask, hell they would be normal here, [color=violet]”Ah my power, I use mind powers!”[/color] As Joziah shakes his hands near his head as he shifts his body making joke of mysticism as he continues, [color=violet]”But yeah my powers are psychic and telekinesis, I came here, on what my mentor has said, to see the wider truth of being a hero. And I Personally found the trip here too long, well that also comes from the fact that I dislike planes. But other than that I should bounce the question back to you, what is your power?”[/color] [color=#D38E2B]”My power?”[/color] replied Gene, taking a second to figure out how to word it, [color=#D38E2B]”I can do whatever a squirrel can. But really, I’m Squirrel Girl’s son and basically have the same powers except I can also talk to rats. Really, if you’re psychic you could find out anything you wanted to about me. I share no secrets with my dorm mates. Or does it not work like that?”[/color] [Color=violet]"Naw naw, I don't have enough power to read too deep. I can mostly use my telepathy to just talk with others. You know, when you don't feel like talking or just only want one person to know. Other than that my power is quite limited. But hey, your power is quite cool! I never knew Squirrel Girl had a child. But hey, it would be good to have you, you seem like a nice dude. What's some stuff you're into?[/color] Joziah asks as he does gesture for the both of them to sit and talk. Gene sat down, leaning back into the chair instead of sitting upright. He did not stand on ceremony. He was clearly somebody who took every opportunity to relax. [color=#D38E2B]“Stuff? Well, I’m into movies, TV binges, parkour,-”[/color] He was about to continue, when a pretty short guy came into the room, and introduced himself as Michael Wilson. No freaking way. [i]Deadpool’s[/i] son was in the same dorm as them? This was going to be a riot! [color=#D38E2B]”Hey! Welcome to the party,”[/color] Gene greeted. [color=#D38E2B]”I’m Gene Green. Definitely not Amelia Stark.”[/color] He then turned to Joziah with a grin. [color=#D38E2B]”Hey, Jozie. You’re not Amelia Stark, are you?”[/color] [color=violet]”Oh hello there!”[/color] Joziah said as he saw a new man who entered the room and introduced himself. Wilson? Like Deadpool Wilson? Oh no, this could be a strange day and fun life, [color=violet]”Nope. I am not Amelia, I am Joziah”[/color]. As he stands to goes to properly greet Michael. Michael nodded. Well, he did internally. Looks like the two had actually been in the middle of a conversation, something he wasn’t entirely sure how he’d managed to not pick up on. Still they’d let him weasel his way into their conversation, and he wasn’t about to let them know what a mistake that was. Seeing that they’d both taken a seat, he decided to do the same. However, where they used the couches like normal people, Michael summoned a nice, blunted sword in the air behind him and flopped backwards onto it. Of course, it hardly seemed like it could be called a sword if you were to merely look at it. It was too big, too thick, too heavy, and too rough, more like a large hunk of iron than a sword. Or, as Michael generally used it for, a floating surfboard. After a few moments of maneuvering himself into a comfy position, he floated over towards the pair. [color=#F9EB7E]”Gene Green huh? I like it!”[/color] He said with a wide, more likely than not stupid-looking grin plastered across his face. [color=#F9EB7E]“Names that rhyme are always a plus in my book. Plus there are plenty of puns to be made with colour names! Also, that is a tail right? I’m not just hallucinating again?”[/color] He spun a little further so he could face both Gene [i]and[/i] Joziah, while also repositioning himself atop the sword so he was lying on his stomach, head in his hands. [color=#F9EB7E]”And Joziah… Joey! Unless you’ve already got another nickname I should know about. I’m open to suggestions! Honestly, I’d really prefer if you had something better, Joey is kinda boring...”[/color] [color=#D38E2B]”Yes, that is a tail!”[/color] Gene replied, standing up just so he could give it a few thwips and show it off. [color=#D38E2B]”A squirrel tail to be precise. And my full name’s Eugene Green but…I’m not a Eugene at all. You can call me anything but Eugene.”[/color] [color=violet]”I mean I have two, you can take your choice. A simple one is ‘Z’ as Joziah is spelt with a Z, but you can also call me Jojo, Jean always thought it was a nice nickname my grandmother always used to use. As my middle name is Johnathan, as Joziah Johnathan, Jojo”[/color]. Joziah did agree Joey was a boring nickname, and found it kinda lackluster, as it was normally used for many names starting with Jo. [color=#F9EB7E]“Oh my god, you’re a Jojo?!”[/color] Michael all but shouted, his grin somehow stretching even wider, while simultaneously gaining a sly edge to it. [color=#F9EB7E]“Wow, never thought I’d be lucky enough to meet one of you guys for real… Tell me, you got a Stand, or are you more of a traditionalist Hamon user?”[/color] He looked back to Gene. [color=#F9EB7E]“Neat, I bet that’s gotta be pretty helpful for balance! And Winter, probably. You could probably take advantage of that to be a pretty good martial artist, if you haven’t already… Ooh, like Ojiro!”[/color] And then he floated back slightly, so he could face the pair of them without having to turn around constantly. [color=#F9EB7E]“So anyway, you’ve already heard of pops, I can see it in your faces. But, you know, that’s good, because it’d be a pretty boring conversation if I kept talking about myself too long! But yeah, I’m gonna go ahead and make the wild guess that you’re related to Squirrel Girl somehow, what with the tail and the shared last name and stuff… And you,” [/color] he said, pointing to Joziah, [color=#F9EB7E]“I know it’s a long shot, but I’m really hoping for Joseph Joestar.”[/color] [color=violet]”Well I can’t show you what my Stand looks like but…”[/color] As Joziah stands up and takes an extravagant and imposing pose as he uses his telekinesis to bring the remote to him so he can change the channel. He then sits back down in a calm manner as he swings his leg wide and crosses his legs as he starts channel surfing. As Joziah then continued, [color=violet]”My parentage shall remain a mystery, yet just know my Father is also a JoJo”[/color]. Gene shook his head, watching these two with a confused look on his face. [color=#D38E2B]”I know you’re referencing something,”[/color] he stated. [color=#D38E2B]”But I don’t get it. But yeah, Squirrel Girl’s my mom. So what is this ‘Jojo’? Is it like a TV show or something?”[/color] [color=#F9EB7E]“Ha, yeah, well just as with you, I [i]too[/i] cannot reveal my Stand to you.”[/color] Michael said with an overdramatic flourish of his own. [color=#F9EB7E]“I can, however, tell you that he is the one holding up the sword you see before you!” “Why, we’re just referencing real life!”[/color] Michael replied to Gene. [color=#F9EB7E]“I understand that between me and Jojo, it might be a little hard to follow, but it’s important to remember that the real world can be [i]far[/i] more bizarre than fiction. That’s what makes it such an exciting adventure!”[/color] And then he paused for a moment, before deciding that it was probably better to not be so weird about it. [color=#F9EB7E]”Uh, forget that. Actually don’t, because it [i]is[/i] a pretty good way to view life and makes me seem like I know what I’m talking about more than I really do, but it’s Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.”[/color] Not quite sure of how to close off his statement, Michael decided to settle with another overdramatic pose. Joziah laughs as it is fun to find someone who follows the joke. As he stops on Jojo Bizarre Adventure as he then says, [color=violet]”Well you can understand the reference after seeing a bit. But if you don’t feel like it we can put something else on”[/color]. As he stands up and says, [color=violet]”Well I’m gonna grab drinks anyone want anything?”[/color] [color=#D38E2B]”Just a coke or something. I’m actually really not fussy,”[/color] Gene replied, sitting back down. [color=#D38E2B]”Wonder what I should do later. Still haven’t really looked around. Haven’t even checked my room out yet.”[/color]
