Alonzo checked himself in before making his way through to the conference hall, making a mental note that he was in Cabin 5 - halfways between them all. Easy enough to remember.

He made his way trough to the conference hall, picking a seat on the edge of the room and taking out a spare notebook and pen - he suffered from claustrophobia so being on an edge made him feel a touch more comfortable than cramped in crammed in next to people on either side. Not to mention the air conditioning was a welcome relief from the heat outside. He was going to have to change out of his hoodie at this rate. He was sure he packed some shorts somewhere… 

He was drawn out of his head by the stage lighting up and the room dimming, a woman starting to talk about the whole reason behind the conference. If he was honest, he tuned out most of it. He wasn’t exactly interested in the science behind it all - he just wanted to speak to some actual real people who also had to deal with this new ability.

He blinked out of the daze he’d slipped into, glancing down at the double page spread of crappy little doodles he’d drawn while the pair had been rambling. He shut the notebook and shoved the pen behind his ear as he stood and gathered up his bag once again, giving Mara a small wave as he headed off in the direction of cabin… 5.

He hoped he wasn’t about to get hate crimed- he wasn’t exactly the straightest looking person…

He was second in line, once the first guy had said his bit - Daniel or something or other… he hadn’t been paying too much attention - he could pipe up and introduce himself.

[color=lavender][b]”Uh, hi. Alonzo Solandis, I’m from near here, no where really exciting.”[/b][/color] He shrugged a little, giving a slightly sheepish smile. [color=lavender][b]”I have a lavender essence, if you couldn’t smell that already, and I’m an artist. I specialise in watercolour and oils but dabble in everything.”[/b][/color] He smiled, glancing expectedly at the person beside him.
