The Safe Haven

When things began to look more serious, Lucky's hair began to twirl around her seemingly of it's own will. It wasn't aggressive, but rather a defensive stance. The hair seemed to become more dense in response to her emotions, shielding her from potential threats. [[ I wish supers didn't have to try to swing their egos around. ]] Lucky thought to herself, her usual smile gone and replaced with a frown and narrowed eyes. When Lady Jade took control of the situation, Lucky breathed a sigh of relief. Her hair fell limply behind her, aware that the danger was now past. "Well, wasn't that just thrilling? What a lovely show." Lucky remarked, her voice laced with sarcasm.

She gave Eric, Elaine, and Cole a look. "I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to pop a squat over... there. Away from all of this nonsense." Lucky pointed to some bleachers outside of the arena. Before she went, however, she turned and leaned in closer to Elaine. "You see? Lady J' has everything under control. Nothing to worry about, Lain." She said in a low voice and gave Elaine a smile that was meant to be comforting. With a sloppy two-fingered salute to the others, she stalked off to the bleachers and took a seat near to the middle. She retrieved her phone from a pocket, then used her hair to hold it out in front of her so her hands were free to pull tasty trail mix from the large bag she now held in her lap. She was ready to record the fight and enjoy herself at the same time.

I'll be posting in an hour or two. :]

Lucky is never able to turn off her powers either, actually. She will always regenerate and heal herself, no matter if she wills it or not. The only thing on Lucky that is a blemish or scar that's actually remained on her body is the tattoo on her face (it was inflicted by another supernatural, as sort of a "brand" to claim ownership over her. For some reason, her healing doesn't affect it). Her hair, nails, teeth, eyes, etc. are all things that glow unnaturally, making it impossible for her to live a life of secrecy.

Her healing of other people is done by consent, even if they're unconscious. She will probe their minds and communicate with them that way. Any healing done without consent is a battle between Lucky's skills and the subject's own determination to refuse it. Due to this struggle, Lucky believes it is unethical to force her healing as it could possibly make the situation worse or, in the most dire of cases, kill the subject.

The idea for Lucky is for her to grow into her powers throughout the RP and to get over her issues in using them. Eventually I would like for her to be able to give herself above normal (in regular human standards) strength, speed, and be able to reinforce her body to something a lot more durable (thinking titanium? but that would be WAY later on with several stages of hardness in between), as well as be able to augment other people in that fashion too (if all of this is accepted by the GMs).

Just thought I'd give my two cents in, since mentions of "never being able to turn off their power" are being thrown around.

LOL @Kazemitsu that's exactly what I thought too. xD I got pretty confused.

EDIT:

@Kaesus Is @Kidd's character not joining us in the RP anymore, or are we just going ahead with this and they can join in later?

Lucky scratched her head at the confusing way Elaine replied to both herself, as well as the newcomer, Eric. She shrugged it off when she realized that Elaine was probably being overwhelmed by all of the attention.

Instead of interrogating Elaine further, Lucky gave Eric a cheeky grin when he asked if they were ready to strut their stuff. "Oh hells yes am I ready to strut it! You aren't even prepared for this beautimus performance." She fanned her hair out behind her in a striking resemblance of a peacock's tail feathers and twirled around gracefully. When she was done, she struck a sassy pose with one hand on her hip.

In response to Eric's remark about Lady Jade being cute, Lucky nodded like the comment was expected. After all, in her many years attending the school she had heard a lot of praise, as well as an equal amount of vitriol, for the teacher. "Yeah, Lady J' is something else. This should be an interesting class, to say the least..." She trailed off distractedly as she followed Elaine's line of sight to the new students, especially to Kaze.

She wasn't completely unprepared for oddities, but Kaze's existence was pretty distracting. When a girl with an attitude placed herself next to the giant, Lucky frowned, sensing a fight brewing. She hesitantly tore her attention back to Eric and Elaine. That was when she noticed Cole standing not too far away, and she gave him a smile and a wave, including him in the small gathering.

"Hopefully this doesn't get too interesting though... That girl over there seems like trouble." Lucky indicated Eira with a nod and a shrug. "Oh yeah, I'm Lucky by the way." She added as an after-thought, finally remembering to introduce herself. "Let's hope we all stay that way, too."

The Safe Haven

@Kaesus Yeah, I thought so too. I'mma wait ^^

The Safe Haven

Should I wait before replying to @Enalais to give @HylianRose a chance to say something? I'm not sure what the etiquette is for conversation in RPs to be honest.

@HylianRose

"OH Elaine, that's it! It was driving me absolutely nuts trying to figure it out! Lucky laughed, giving her thigh a light slap. "Well, Lain, you really don't have anything to worry about with Lady J' here. She really does have everything under control. If anything..."

Lucky paused for a moment, looking Elaine over. "You may want to relax and take some deep breaths. You seem pretty nervous. Is this your first class at the Haven?"

Lucky bobbed to the music blaring in her headphones as she walked along the path to the arena. The weather was pleasant, lifting her spirits as she inhaled the morning air deeply. She preferred nature and the outdoors to staying inside, and it could cure her of any foul mood. So when the entry way to the arena came into view, Lucky smiled to herself. She hated the classes involving powers, but she wouldn't be deterred from her good mood.

When the familiar face of Lady Jade came into view, Lucky gave her a double-snap and finger guns hand gesture. "Hey Lady J', how's it hangin'?" Lucky called out, not expecting a reply from the teacher in question as she walked past, already knowing what to do. She took her place next to a much shorter, rather cute girl. [[Emily...Lola? Lilly?...]] Lucky pondered, looking out of the corner of her left eye at Elaine. Out of habit rather than conscious thought, Lucky stroked her chin with a thick strand of tentacle-esque hair as she tried to figure out Elaine's actual name.

Lucky noted how uncomfortable Elaine seemed, but Lucky couldn't blame her. Everyone here had their own demons to deal with. With a shrug, she leaned against the wall casually and pulled down her headphones, the cheery music from within filling the air in a sphere of a couple of feet around Lucky. "It'll be over with before you know it." She said, aiming the comment towards Elaine. "I'm Lucky... Like, that's actually what people call me, go figure." She chuckled to herself, enjoying the joke even if nobody else got it. "Anyways, don't worry. Lady J' has this situation under control, nobody will get hurt. Probably." She added with a wink and a toothy grin. Her teeth glowed the same color as her neon green, bio-luminescent hair, giving the smile a weird effect.

She leaned back to give Elaine room, but kept her headphones hanging loosely around her neck in case the shorter girl wanted to talk at all. She hummed quietly to the music.
