(Not really happy with this post, but eh)

Frank's mouth quirks into a smirk, and he lets out a small snort of laughter himself. "I'm sure the scorch mark on the ground indicates otherwise. That, or you're just a show-off." During this brief communication, the gears of Frank's mind were spinning rapidly. 'Far too friendly to be working with aglets. Girl Scouts are too subtle for a brazen display of power such as this. Boy bands target females, not both genders, so they're out too. Red M&Ms focus on blue M&Ms, Burger King focuses on the slop they call food, and Walmart is focused on advertising. That's the main five out of the way... Hurm. Unsure as to affiliations at this time.'

It was at that moment that Frank felt someone tap his shoulder and say something about needles and fireballs to him. "Unsure as to why I would stick a needle in you, and no, I was not berating 'Mr. Sun' for be-EAGH!" Frank, having turned around mid-sentence to look at the person talking to him, promptly jumped back five feet upon seeing Light and took a fighting stance. 'Creature unknown, possibly from another planet. Must investigate further.' Add to that the fact that Sol mentioned that he was an Infinity Stone, and Frank's already whirring mind was going into over-overdrive. 'Living Infinity Stone. Unknown if hostile or friendly, most likely friendly based off of past interactions. Must investigate further.'

As if Frank's mind needed more things to analyze, it was then that what appeared to be a sasquatch grabbed onto Sol's arm. The red-headed conspiracy theorist's head was spinning at all these new developments in such a short amount of time. 'I am currently going to attend classes with: a living artifact older than time and space itself, a creature that is more than likely not of this world, and a creature that belongs in urban legends and horrible daytime television about monster hunters. Reality can be stranger than fiction, if it's in the mood.'

The three would probably notice the ginger boy's now quiet demeanor, a thoughtful look on his face as he stood stone still, his body still in the impromptu fighting stance he took upon seeing Light. Occasionally he would mumble something along the lines of "Finding Bigfoot", "outer space", or "Infinity Stones", as he processed these sudden facts.

@Simple Unicycle Oh sure, but Light doesn't know that. And if he keeps going on and on about ONLY Aglets, that'll be his nickname :P.

Least the two of them have some things in common. She also HATES boybands for that exact reason. xD

@Archmage MC

Oh no, he'll definitely go on about all sorts of stuff if given the chance. But seeing as what the aglets are planning is still unknown, then aglets will be his go-to reason for why something is going wrong (if the reason isn't already apparent).

Well, I think this will be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Or at least the beginning of an acquaintanceship built upon mutual hatred towards boy bands.

@Archmage MC Aglets aren't the only things Frank dislikes. You have to take into account Girl Scouts (responsible for the crop circle phenomenon), boy bands (responsible for brainwashing the 8-16 female demographic into hormone-driven zombies), red M&Ms (stealing the spotlight from the blue M&Ms), Burger King (placing nano machines into their food to mind control all who eat it), and Walmart (putting subliminal messages into their advertisements which roughly translate to 'consume', 'obey', and other similar things).

So if Light is going to give Frank a nickname, keep using 'Mr. Suit' or use 'Conspiracy Man'.

@Framing A Moose Yeah, Rorschach is probably one of the most interesting characters I've ever seen, with his many (flawed or otherwise) personality traits. That's not to mention his many, many, many quotable lines ("I'm not locked in here with you, you're locked in here with ME!" Being my favorite). And yeah, everything is hard to see on mobile.

@Archmage MC Frank's probably going to flip a shit at first, then proceed to watch Light's every move in fascination. ("Subject has just finished drinking a can of generic brand cola and has thrown it into a waste bin. Astounding... Quickly, to collect the can for examination!")

@Framing A Moose
Oh hey, my character for the last RP was based off Rorschach. I mean, he was completely different from Rorschach personality wise, but still.

Also, I tested the black color out in preview mode, and it seems to be pretty easy to read when compared to other dark colors. But then again, I'm not the GM, so who cares what I say?

EDIT: This is a test.
Somebody, anybody tell me seriously that you can't read that.

Frank watched the fireball shooting down the Earth in unsurprise (yes that isn't a word. Yes, I just made it a word). 'Just like dad said... Those damn aglets are making their move. And their first priority is to get rid of us!' However, considering there was nothing he could do to stop himself from being burnt to a crisp as soon as it hit the ground, he just clenched his eyes tight and waited for the inevitable... 'See you in a bit, dad...'

Moments later, Frank was surprised to find that he was, in fact, not a piece of ginger bacon. And he was even more surprised to find that the fireball was, in fact, a boy. 'How unexpected... But that doesn't mean he wasn't sent by the aglets anyway. Will keep a close eye on him, just in case.' What surprised him even more was seeing the boy shake hands with people. Dumbstruck, Frank didn't regain his composure until the boy reached him.

"Was your mission to disturb a peaceful morning? Because if so, you succeeded." Frank said to Sol whilst shaking his hand, tone and expression deadpan. 'Subtly interrogate your targets under the guise of sarcastic humor... Oh father, your lessons will never cease to amaze me.'

@TechnoWizROK

You're damn right you did.

Now excuse me while I mark this occasion on my 'times people have understood a Question reference' board.

The Academy: A school for Heroes and Villains (closed)

Methinks that Sol needs to work on his landing strategy^

@TechnoWizROK

If Sol keeps that up, Frank will probably conclude that he was sent by the aglets to disturb the peace. One could argue against that conspiracy with the fact that Sol is older than the universe itself, but little do they know that those damned aglets have been planning unthinkable things since the beginning of time...

Kind of hoping 'Frank fricking Sage' becomes a running joke in this RP, considering how many people mentioned it.

"... Wow."

That was the only word that the redheaded young man could find to describe the campus before him. Having lived in Hub City all his life and being used to cramped skyscrapers and crowded city streets, an academy with wide open fields and a lake to boot seemed so... Foreign to him. In fact, one could say that he felt intimidated.

But he doesn't back down. His name isn't Franklin Roger Sage for nothing. His father resisted psychological torture in a Cadmus facility for a week straight. His mother survived seeing her family killed before her. Surely, he could survive living and learning in a simple academy if even a fraction of their combined willpower made its way into his genetics. Then again, willpower isn't exactly a genetic trait, so his willpower wouldn't be affected by...

"Shut up, Frank." Frank muttered to himself, shaking his head to clear it of these thoughts. He shouldn't think so pessimistically on the first day. Sure, it was true that willpower isn't a genetic trait so his resolve could be stronger or weaker than that of his parents, but that doesn't mean he should tell himself that considering it's meant to help him cope. His father was The Question, and his mother was Huntress, so naturally their offspring would be tough-as-nails.

To calm himself, Frank took a sip from the styrofoam cup in his hand, the sugary sweet coffee seeming to soothe his nerves ('Or maybe it's just feeding my craving for caffeine,' Frank mused mentally). In addition to this, he reached into his pocket with his other hand and petted Frankie, mostly just to ensure that his furry friend was there for him.

Yeah. He can do this.

Frank wasn't surprised to see he wasn't the first person there, glancing at his future peers as they arrived and taking note of how different they all seemed. He noted that one of them, a young woman maybe a year younger than him with bright red hair and blue eyes, was among the first to actually enter through the gates instead of just loitering around the entrance. Figuring it was unwise to prolong the inevitable, Frank sighed, chugging down the rest of his coffee as he made his way through the gates and onto the campus proper.

'I'm Frank fricking Sage. I can handle this.' He assured himself mentally, despite the anxiousness in his stomach ('Or perhaps that's just my stomach acting up from all the damned coffee,' Frank thought to himself). He wasn't going to back down now.

"I'm Frank fricking Sage." He repeated, this time aloud, and that seemed to give him the confidence he needed to get on with the day.
