Ben frowns as Flood appears suddenly and asks to speak with him. "Um, do I know you?" Ben asks the peculiar student just as Jack arrives. When Jack mentions Thanatos, Ben glares at him for a fraction of a second before shrugging nonchalantly. "Eh, who knows. Might turn out to just be some punk that's hopped up on PCP. Besides, I'm sure no one's stupid enough to attack a building with hundreds of superpowered students and a staff made up of some of the most powerful beings on Earth." He turns to Kalinda and says, "I'm not sure if you've met him, but this is Jack, my little brother." He glances at Flood as he continues, "I don't have any clue who the other guy is, though."

Anthony briefly looks up from his lunch and replies, "I like to keep track of my contemporaries' progress. It's interesting to see whether or not they meet my expectations."
