Sep. 13th, 2038 - Margaret Carter Institute[/b][/color][/h3][/center][hr][@Ogobrogo]: Teddy is more than welcome to make his way back on over to lifting, in order to see if he can beat his best of the day and get a few more crushed vans up into the air. However, along the way back, he would run into one of the teachers at the school - Firestar. A former Avenger and a mutant, Firestar has the ability to manipulate microwave energy, although most people think she just has fire powers. 

	"Teddy - did you see what happened to cause that fireball?" Firestar asked. She was in charge of his dorm and knew him quite well, having taught a few classes he had been in and whatnot. "Somehow, none of the other staff members had eyes on it..." 

[@Blizz][@BlueSky44][@Natsu]: As Leah left Agatha's tent, having had her dramatic and serious fortune told, she would see a new disaster unfolding in front of her. Maybe this had somehow been what Agatha had been warning about? Two new girls - freshmen, most likely - appeared to have gotten into an accidental confrontation. Leah would've missed most of it, but caught a glimpse of the illusion Zelda had accidentally projected, that of Mary Sue's parents calling her a failure. Maybe some upperclassmen advice could be used here? As for Zelda, she'd see Leah coming out of the tent. Maybe Leah would be able to help - or maybe now is a good time go find her sister? 

[@BlueSky44][@Forsythe][@Nallore]: Andy had excused herself to go grab something from her room, so the quartet would become a trio. The booth for the Academy Knights isn't too far away. Assuming the trio does go to approach, they would be greeted by the president of the Academy Knights - the King himself. "What ho, three fair maidens do I see? Challengers, perhaps, to face off in a duel?" the King paused, noticing again that one person in particular was ready for another bout, and still undefeated - a dark haired girl with braids and a crest of a gold dragon on her armor. 

	"Will you be facing each other or is anyone so brave as to fight our champion of the tourney thus far, the brave Ser Megan?" 

	Ser Morgan regarded the trio intensely. She had an unnerving stare. 

[@Kirah]: As Andy heads back to Stark Hall to grab something from her room, she would notice not very many people were actually in the building at the moment - that she could see. There was a blonde girl and a short boy with brown hair who were talking in the lobby, but otherwise not really anyone was around. When she got back to her dorm room itself, it was more or less the way she had left it - with one critical exception.

The Selene doll was now sitting on the floor in the middle of the room, with all of Chi Mai's potted plants (Debbie, Rock, and Bub) in a triangle around her. 

	"There wasn't enough for a proper circle, bah!" Selene complained, as soon as Andy came into the room. "I need you to get me some candles, black flame, won't you be a good dear and do that for mother dearest?"

[@Trainerblue192]: Ser Nemo looked at Dorian quizzically for a moment. "I'm not a fish....? Oh!" he chuckled, realizing the source of the confusion. Words sounded differently to him - he heard them for their true meanings. And in the case of his name, it did not refer to an animated clown fish. "I see. No, I am afraid that I have no affiliation with Pixar - an elderly queer man is hardly what they look for in terms of protagonists in the early twenty first century." 

	Somehow, Ser Nemo's electric kettle had already been running - despite neither of them having been in the room for very long - and it whistled, announcing that the water was ready. Perhaps Ser Nemo had already been intending to make tea before going out for a stroll on the grounds...? But that didn't make very much sense either. Maybe they'd been in the office longer than Dorian had realized. 

	Ser Nemo took out two [url=https://www.herendexperts.com/herend-porcelain-pictures/2017/01/Evict1-Herend-tea-set-leaf-header-1.jpg]teacups[/url] - the set looked rather fine, something that must've cost a pretty penny. He poured the hot water and portioned out the loose leaf tea into two tea infusers, adding them into the cups. The cream and sugar, he then set those down on the desk in front of the two of them - as well as a third tiny flask, a cordial really. "Let it steep for a moment. It's Earl Grey, I hope you enjoy it. I have cream and sugar - and some vanilla as well, should you take it with that," Ser Nemo explained. 

	He had listened to Dorian's tale of woes, and his heart did break for the young man. But this day was not such a large disaster that it could not be salvaged - there would be greater sorrows to come for the young Mr. Gray, that Ser Nemo was cursed to know. It was the way of the world. Nothing gold could stay. "When I was your age, I could not control my powers either," Ser Nemo commiserated. "I humiliated myself with them. But... had that not happened, I would not have met my first love. These things have a way of working themselves out, Mr. Gray. Your birthday is not yet over - I imagine your friends perhaps were just waiting to give you gifts. Professor Harkness is still there to do readings, and I am certain there are still many [i]cute boys[/i] for you to meet." 

	"But perhaps I can help to make your birthday right," Ser Nemo said, before handing Dorian the small package he had been carrying earlier. "A gift, from the faculty to you. It is never easy being away from home on your birthday. I hope you treasure this."

And no one else seemed to be in Stark Hall, so his pride wasn't going to take too much further damage by eating some of the snacks his sister gave him. He grumpily put a handful of kettle corn into his mouth, doing his best to look angry even as his stomach rejoiced at the influx of sweet, sugary food. [color=ed1c24]"You'd think they'd have learned how to control their powers - or just maybe, maybe using your powers to do the [i]light thingy[/i] wasn't ideal - or hijacking someone's body without consent could be considered [i]assault[/i],"[/color] Percy snapped. He wasn't angry at Diana - he was angry at the older boys who had hurt him. 

	He didn't mention that this situation had started due to Percy's own powers misfiring, but bumping into someone was different from setting them on fire and then possessing them. It was an entirely different class of offense. [color=ed1c24]"And I'm fine, I just tripped over something,"[/color] Percy lied. He didn't know what had come over him briefly, and he didn't want to think about it anymore. The day had been traumatizing enough. 

	He didn't particularly [i]want[/i] to be the pathetic loser boy tagging around his sister, but he knew hiding off in his dorm room for the rest of the day wasn't a good look either. And he doubted Diana would actually let up. She was probably even more overprotective of him than their moms were. Percy sighed. [color=ed1c24]"Just - just let me get changed, okay? We can't let those assholes ruin our day, I suppose."[/color] Percy then took the elevator up to the sixth floor. He opened up room 601 with his keys, and noted that his roommate still wasn't there. 

	Percy strummed his fingers on the dresser for a moment, before opening up the drawers and quickly assembling a new outfit. He hadn't anticipated needing to do a wardrobe change on his first day. But given how his favorite jacket had already been ruined, Percy decided to dress down compared to before. He swapped out his shoes for a pair of converse sneakers; for pants, he went with dark black skinny jeans; for his top, a plain black t-shirt. And to finish off the look, he put on a leather jacket/grey hoodie combo. If he got too hot, he'd ditch the jacket. 

	[color=ed1c24]"Подними голову, Новиков,"[/color] he murmured, staring at his reflection in the mirror. He would never admit it, but part of him was nervous to get back out there to the carnival. Everything had gone so wrong with the first group of students he had interacted with, what was to prevent things from getting worse? 

	He tried to shake those feelings off, as he left the room, locked up, and took the elevator back down to the first floor where he had left Diana. [color=ed1c24]"Alright, sister dear, where to?"[/color] [hr][hr][center][h3][b][color=42A9FF]April Flynn[/color][/b][/h3][img]https://66.media.tumblr.com/1052bc1bcb3589665e860b52b0438829/6e7a80a5565ffc5a-c9/s540x810/f0dea2550169c12bb0369c2b2b93704ed40f4b45.gif[/img][hr][b][color=42A9FF]Location:[/color][/b] the Field (School Carnival)

She would've texted it to him, but her hands had been a bit full with all of the food she had grabbed from the truck. The group had moved off to the side of the line now though, so hopefully no more mean freshmen would be criticizing them for holding the line up. April was pretty sure she'd have a nervous breakdown if one more thing happened that day. It was still bad enough she had made everything wet in front of [i]Sabine[/i]... 

	April wished she could go ghost right about then and there, rather than make eye contact with the Most Perfect Girl in the world. She felt only slightly better when Danny kissed her on the cheek in thanks for the food. At least it had been before he'd eaten the funnel cake, so she didn't have powdered sugar lips on her face. [color=42A9FF]"Yeah, you get to choose!"[/color] April encouraged. Had Dorian been there though, it obviously would've been his pick. 

	The promise of gossiping about Kate Bishop also helped her feel a little less mortified - she had never really gotten the appeal of Kate and Tommy as a couple. It felt like they were each other's beards, if anything. April was even considering if it would be too inappropriate to ask Agatha her thoughts on that entire situation, surely her mystic powers had to have SOMETHING to tell them... 

	[color=42A9FF]"Yes, yes, let's go drown Coulson! If we miss, as long as no one is looking who would get me in trouble, I can see about making sure he gets dunked anyways. You don't think I'd get detention for it, right? Could always say my powers are going out of control. Everyone's powers are out of control here all the time, it's why the insurance rates are sooo high and barely anyone is willing to cover the school, like I think a bunch of Avengers' personal fortunes are basically going into paying the rates, that's what my mom says to me anyways.... Sooo dunking time? Yes, dunking time, you're coming, right, everyone? We could invite the mean freshie, she seems lonely, but also... kinda awful, not gonna lie,"[/color] April rambled, saying the last part a bit quieter, just in case she was overheard. 

	April looked at Sabine expectantly for a moment, wondering if she would be joining them at the dunk tank. Maybe if she did get caught using her powers to dunk Coulson, Sabine could just edit everyone's memories to keep her out of trouble... April's mind briefly went off topic, having a vivid imagination of April and Sabine ending up in detention together, and somehow, there was just one desk, one chair, their hands touched and.... 

	[color=42A9FF]"Let's go, everyone!"[/color] April then chimed in, before walking in the direction of the dunk tank, while eating a candy apple.
