Happy Birthday, Caits! Enjoy it! ^_^ Eat cake.

Ed, I'm having trouble understanding your post with Devika. Someone busted through the wall... they were outside, I thought, so... explain please.

Devika nodded slowly. She was listening to the boy's words, but something was off. There was no fear in him, no urgency, not a hint of panic. Not determination, just... smooth as glass.

He was lying, somewhere in there. Her instincts knew it. Suddenly, she didn't want to leave Nick alone with this person. Why would he lie? What reason could there be for that?

Devika held her arms out, putting a subtle touch of power into her voice. She could tell lies to beat a politician, but she could also tell Truth. It was in the inflection, in the stance, in being so firm in your action that someone couldn't possibly think you were lying to them. "Let me take him. You look a lot more capable than me. I'm no good in a fight, and he's my friend, so..." Her gaze lingered on Nick's face for a brief, tender moment. Whether she was selling her story, or was just that worried was impossible to tell. "Please, I don't want him to wake up alone. He's new."

Devika wasn't running very fast, so she had plenty of time to see an unknown student carrying a passed out Nick on his back. She rushed to the men, looking worried. "Nick... I-is he okay?" She didn't recognize the guy carrying her friend, but that wasn't unusual. There were plenty of students at this school, so not knowing one face out of a hundred wasn't much cause for alarm. "What's going on?" The fear was gone from her voice, as she was too focused on keeping the heightened emotions coming from the gym out of her mind. She'd let them in if she could use them, but feared being overwhelmed.

I can see the PMs, Ed. I will respond when I respond, no need to remind me.

Up to you guys in what happens I'm just speaking my peace.

Is Devika meant to see/respond to this? Also is Nick unconscious?

Aw ):Your character was one of my favorites

Heh. Thank you for the compliment. If the RP were smaller/had less constraints, then I might give it a try. But I know already that I won't be able to put my best work into it, and I do like to put my whole self into things. Plus I rarely get to play Devika on her own, I was quite looking forward to it. *SIGH* Life. Que sera sera.

Kijani had been in the backstage, getting some normal clothing on when things started to go strangely. She peeked out of the curtains, and realized that on stage was none other than Erik Lensherr. Magneto, in the flesh?

Her grandmother would be... intrigued.

Kijani had been drilled into the motives of various high ranking supers over her lifetime, and the leader of the Brotherhood was at the top of many lists. She found herself walking forward, her mind going at a fast clip. Even though she recognized the sound of Connor's beams, and knew he was helping rescue people, she knew without having to think about it. This was it. This was her proof. She wasn't useless, she wasn't nothing...

"I will join, sir." Her shoulders squared and she smiled, and there was the old ferocity in her eyes.

Devika was reading a book on the lawn, ten minutes out from the gym where the talent show was taking place. She was mid-paragraph, when she suddenly got hit by a powerful wave of emotion. Panic. Dread. Pure animal terror. Something was very wrong. It took her several precious seconds to fight it off and get up, rushing toward the gym as fast as she could.

Devika is... well, we'll see.
