Anthony


Once home, Anthony takes a quick shower, shaves, and gets dressed. By the time he got back to the Academy, he had nearly twenty minutes to get to Sue's dorm. Knowing that it takes him ten minutes when walking at his normal pace, he walks much slower than usual. After fifteen minutes, he arrives at Sue's door two minutes early. He gathers his wits, and then knocks on the door.


Sue panicked. She did not want to be seen like this, and now with a press for time she was really in for it. Most people feared public humiliation more than death, and Sue was no exception. Though she was a fun and loving person that did not mind a little selflessness and loss of shame, she did not want to be like that in a date.

Her headphones were on when she was cleaning her room, and in a rush of carelessness, she hit play on her headphones.

‘O Sole Mio – Luciano Pavarotti

”Oh shit oh shit oh shit,” she thought.

She fished out what seemed wearable and smelt the least – deodorant to save the day, honestly.

She saw a checkered long-sleeved top, a sweater with black and grey diamonds. She decided to wear them with dark jeans and her bright red sneakers.

She checked herself in the mirror and opted against putting on any makeup, closing back her drawer of brushes and colours, when one of her many ties caught her eye. She put it on.



She was nervous. She bounced on the balls of her feet and rolled on her heels before opening the door.

She greeted Anthony with Pavarotti blasting into his face. She didn’t seem to notice since it was so natural for her, but she pressed pause immediately to save face.
Sorry guys...

I wanted to stay up late, and sleep in a lot.

Depression got the best of me in the early morning, what the hell. xD
Sue


Class was cut short, and after the spectacle that she witnessed, Sue was still beat and tired from all the excitement and worry. She was almost glad that she didn’t have to go up against Mimic again, with the suspension of classes for the day. She picked up her bag and left for her room, not knowing that Anthony and most of the others had already gone by the time she had readied.

She was near the dorm when she remembered her missing friend Phoebe, the girl that decided to leave for her mother. Sue really missed her, and honestly if she had to make herself feel better she would force herself to believe that she should be happy for Phoebe, that she finally could see her mom. But Sue could not help but feel selfish and selfishly miss Phoebe. She had wanted to pass by Phoebe’s room again, but felt that it would only be a downward slope of unhappiness. She continued up to her floor, not looking back.

She entered her room and decided to clean it up for once. She could swear she smelt something funny amongst the pigsty of a bed. She gathered her clothes into a corner for cleaning later on. She picked up her trash and, in a bag, threw them out in a collection dump along the hall. Her room looked nicer and more spacious for once. She did not remember it being like this. Fortunately, or unfortunately, she was not allowed the pleasure of windows – having to rely on artificial light entirely. But now her light bulbs were going dim and she needed to make reminders for herself to get it changed, among other things she needed to do. She got busy, and even in the cold winter she was working up a sweat.

She now done, she collapsed onto her bed and breathed deeply. She, however, would not sleep. She needed to be awake and prettied up by the time Anthony came. She remembered her date, and she wanted to see loverboy.

Her eyes shot wide open, trying to figure out what she could wear for tonight. She looked into her closet and her heart almost dropped when she saw nothing but hangers.

She would ask her friends for help, but she had no idea where they’d be.

”Oh God” she thought to herself.

She dove into her pile of clothes and fished out whatever she could. She was panicking. She pulled out everything she could, ruining her hard work of cleaning up the past two hours, and found nothing worth wearing.

She found something that could work, but she didn’t know what they would be doing so she didn’t want to come up short.

She never got Anthony’s number on her phone. She was scared.
I won't be posting at all today, guys! Sorry!

Class starts early. :<
Mimic

Estella


Since Mimic was waiting on her Estella pulled back her hand and threw a ball of fire. The attack moved around wildly making its way toward Mimic. While that was in route she concentrated on moving the air around her. Not being the greatest fighter she was going to have to rely on her powers. Even then she doubted she yet had the skill to stop him. Hopefully an opportunity would present itself.


He swatted the fireball away with a swing of his forearm. He placed his right leg back to firm his stand. Mimic flapped his wings viciously, creating strong gales, repeating a strategy of hopeful disorientation to Estella. He then produced a large fireball, the diameter as wide as his torso, and with his wings, displaced it into a firey wave that was aimed at Estella.

I'm sorry, but after Anthony and Sue finish talking, I have to sleep. It's currently 2:29 AM where I live.


Go ahead and sleep! Don't let us keep you up :)

Anthony

Anthony shakes his head, ”I wasn't talking about the bug. I meant my offer to make you new headphones. Connor agreed to assist me if you want them. ”


”Oh! Of course! Well… you see Anthony, my headphones are already pretty rad. While that surely is an upgrade, I haven’t seen a need for it yet. It’s still sweet though, and perhaps in the future I might? Who knows?”

She placed her hands on his, and rubbed them softly, ending with a smile.

”Excuse me, gotta pee.”

She left for the girls’ toilet.

Anthony


Anthony moves so he's sitting next to Sue and signs, "Have you thought about my offer?"


”I don’t want to get caught, and I don’t want you get caught too.” her concern for the both of them alarmed even Sue herself.

”But… I have an idea on who we can bug… but I don’t know…”

Dioxide, if you're tired of being Mimic for today, after the fight with Estella, I'll have Mimic fight Zack, then he'll dismiss class.


Be a sweetheart? :)

Haha, thank you.
