Aurora's Gift

[SPiCa]

"Some of these people's powers are really interesting, and from what I can tell this is the most this place has gotten in a single day. We shouldn't expect to see more until they make room."

"Did you see that kid fire a bullet made of his blood? That should hurt more than it looks like it did."

"Maybe he has the regenerative ability to cover the difference, but I'm betting he gets anemic after a few shots. It's the girl who conjured a pit of water out of nowhere that gets me."

"She is pretty cute." In response, only a brief pause accompanied her sister's disappointed gaze.

"What?" she continued. "All I'm saying is that for someone who just got off the drug bus, she doesn't look half bad."

Twins Quinn and Reine had been at the facility for nearly 24 hours now, and took to staying on the rooftops or their room whenever they were free. They found out that while basically a swanky prison, CA-I3 was a good place for learning about one's powers in an environment that didn't put normal humans in harm's way, and the large buildings gave them plenty of space for motion. Quinn took the opportunity to get an in depth analysis on the state of their abilities, which had gone unused for almost a week.

Still, their first day was... unwelcoming, considering the other inmates. Unlike many, the twins arrived with a companion in each other, making them easy targets for a bit of ridicule. Stolen away from their homes and families, few took the experience in stride, but as long as the LeBlancs had each other they were more than willing to suffer through anything.

"It doesn't look like anything else exciting is going to happen, and it feels like a waste just sitting here taking shots in the dark. We'll find out all of their powers soon enough." Quinn stood up on the dormitories' roof, holding out her hand for her sister when most of the inmates were stamped and finding their roommates or settling in. "Let's get back to practice. We need to make up for the week we spent doing nothing, and if we keep a good training regimen we'll be out of here in no time."

Reine, matching Quinn's grip, stood with her. Pieces of an incomplete armor formed against their bodies with a blackened hue. Reine took a step away from the roof's edge, and in an instant the only thing remaining in the twins' place was a gust of wind and the dust from the stone.

Nicolas was surprised to hear a soft voice in his head. However when he replied mentally it wasn't just Nic's voice speaking, it seemed something else talked with him. Like two people saying the same words. <cute power you have> the voices replied in unison. Nicolas shoved his hands in his pockets as he looked the others up and down. He was very curious about there strength, but doing something stupid like attack them would have bad consequences. So he just stuck with introductions. "Hi, I'm Nic" he told them.

Kaos turned to the girl who pulled out a notepad. He read the notepad gave an uneasy laugh. Clearly this was a joke, he knew it. This does not even happen in anime and that was the ultimate fantasy itself. He then looked at the girl who was frowning. Clearly she was not too ecstatic about the set-up either. He swallowed a gulp of air from nervousness and fear. Was she a violent girl, was she one who a sadist, did she have some freakish power that could make his life hell. Anything could happen at this point and probably would.

Then the girl flipped the page on her notepad. It was pretty long so it took him a second to scan through it all. It was a lot to answer too but at the very least, it did not seem like she was mad at him... yet. This was his chance to make a good impression. All he had to do was answer the two questions in order and maybe she would not get highly upset like the girls in the anime would. He took a deep breath and sighed.

"In order, My name is Kyle West... but everyone calls me Kaos." Already he felt embarrassed. Everyone called him Kaos because of his tantrum on that night of the Aurora. He did not pick the name nor did he really like it; but since everyone, including his parents stopped using his real name, it just stuck. He was not trying to be cool but saying that out loud to a group of people made him sound stupid. He also now was starting to feel stupid for telling Siohan that his name was Kaos. She seemed so shy and nervous that he forgot about his shy and nervousness, "You know... You and everyone here can call me Kyle too if you want, that works too." Great he messed up again. He was just on a roll of failure. She probably thought he was a dork and he weak. Kaos knew he was not weak, he was just different. He took another deep breath and exhale the negative thoughts.

"My power... is... well... I can create and transform my body into whatever I am thinking." This was it. His time to be cool and impress everyone. He imaged different things to turn his hand into. First his hand turned to small blade, then an iron ball, then his signature drill. The drill spun rapidly while crying as Kaos spun it even faster. He started to sweat as the transformation was exhausting. He dispelled them and started breathing heavily. "I can also create things but needs too much energy." After recovering his breath he stood up and smile. After all, he loved his ability when he could control it. He also hoped she would like it too.

The female that Kyler had approached replied to him by writing in a notepad rather than verbally. This initially struck Kyler as odd, and he almost asked if there is a reason she chose to write things down instead of saying them out loud. At the last second he decided against asking, because it might have been insensitive, and instead said, "Astra, that's a nice name."

Before he was able to say anything else he and Astra were approached by two more people: A girl who could not be much older than him with curly red hair, and another boy with short auburn hair. The female remained silent (Siobhan), but the male wasted no time to ask about their dorm numbers. Kyler shook his head when the boy asked about room Y-03, indicating that they were not roommates. But, when Kyler looked up to Astra he saw her flashing her notebook to the other boy, informing him that their dorm numbers matched up.

Astra then went on to ask him a series of questions. Meanwhile, Kyler's attention was pulled elsewhere. His gaze landed on another van that was approaching the facility, and he watched with great interest as four SWAT members and a young male exited the van. He must be extremely dangerous if he needs a SWAT escort, Kyler thought, I wonder what his ability could possibly be.

Kyler's eyes remained on the newcomer as he was greeted by the same women who greeted everyone and was given his stamp. He eyed the male as he walked straight up to their group, introducing himself as Nic. Kyler nodded in his direction to acknowledge his presence, but before he could actually say anything the other male was talking again.

Immediately Kyler realized the the male- who now introduced himself as Kaos or 'Kyle'- was answering Astra's questions. An amused glint appeared in Kyler's eyes as he watched Kaos/Kyle demonstrate his ability. "That's a really sweet ability," Kyler complimented, smiling wide. He then raised his hand, and a rock that had been sitting beside his foot rose into the air. "All I can do is lift earthy materials without actually touching them. They call it Terrakenisis, or something like that... Your power is so much cooler. Some guys have all the luck." Kyler dropped his hand and the rock tumbled to the ground.

After a beat Kyler realized this was the perfect time for him to introduce himself to the three people who had arrived after he told Astra his name. "I'm Kyler, by the way... Hopefully our names don't get too confusing," He said, nodding towards Kaos with a smile on his face. "Watch me start answering to 'Kyle' and you to 'Kyler.'" A slight chuckle escaped him by the thought. Another second passed before Kyler held his hand out, showing Nic and the female who hadn't introduced herself (Siobhan) yet his dorm number. "Do either of you have X-13? I got here a few days ago but haven't received a roommate yet."

Katelyn had begun her search after getting away from the dorms completely arriving near the area where she had gotten out of the swat truck. There were fellow inmates all around her, and her eyes darted around randomly choosing someone to ask where you could get your dorms furnished. It was an older lady that she had randomly chose, likely in her eighties. Bad choice really, after asking her for directions, and getting them the old woman began to go on and on about how Katelyn reminded her about her oldest grandchild. Kate just smiled and nodded, before telling the woman she really needed to go now. "Oh okay, Minerva, see you later." She replied, Minerva likely being the name of the grandchild.

The area was not very far from where she had stood really, a short walk was all that was needed before she saw a desk, some papers, and a drop in spot. Katelyn took one of the papers, and a pen next to it. On the paper there was a large list of furniture, paintings, and most other home essentials, and at the bottom it showed a place to put what dorm you lived in, and your signature. With the thing she needed she began to power walk back to her dorm.

Outside of the door she hesitated, guilt for what had happened earlier hitting her like a freight train. A low sigh escaped her, and she opened the door slowly. "I found out how to get the furniture" she announced to the ashen haired boy, walking over to him and handing over the paper and pen. "Indecisiveness bars me from choosing.. so you go ahead." she instructed, it was a bit of a lie, she would not have been indecisive about the furniture, but it was a small way of making it up to the boy, without having to come out and apologize.

Siobhan smiled at Nic <Thank you Nic. I'm Siobhan. What is your 'power'? I prefer to call it a gift, but to each his own. Also if you don't mind me asking who else is speaking? Answer mentally like you just did not out loud please. Most people don't realize that two can occupy the same space. They find it very confusing if you tell them otherwise. It makes them nervous more often than not.> @parkpyro

Siobhan felt a little hurt that Kaos hadn't told her his real name but remembered you have to pick your battles. She smiled as he described and showed off his power. <That was pretty cool Kaos. Or do you prefer Kyle? And you are so not a dork. You and Matthew have been great so far. I'd even call you friends. If you need some advise about girls its be yourself. If she doesn't like you then its her problem.> @Unyielding

Siobhan watched as the taller male that was standing by Astra complimented Kaos and smiled at him at which point he demonstrated his ability by lifting a rock into the air and put it back down. He then introduced himself as Kyler then he flashed his arm and Siobhan's eyes widened. There on his forearm was her room number. She went still and her eyes cut to Kyler. <HE is my room-mate?!? H-H-HE CAN'T!!! He is way to-to bonnie and intimidating...> She looked horrified as she realized she had mentally said all of that to him. She blanched and flashed her arm at Kyler then started to walk away. Somewhere anywhere out of sight.

 

[parkpyro]

<unfortunately my power isn't very interesting so I don't feel like telling you. But I'm sure you'll see it soon enough> Nicolas replied mentally, again it sounded like two people speaking at once. <I guess you could call him my other half> The boy informed the girl, a grin forming on his face as he spoke mentally.

Nicolas looked down at the print on the back of his hand. By the sound of things, that number was a room number. It seemed other people had one too. "Any of you know where this room is" Nic asked the others. He showed them the number on his hand. As well as the number printed onto it there seemed to be something else, Nicolas had what looked like scars all across his knuckles. It was the same for both hands.

 

[Karakui]

Astra pondered for a second or two about this "Kyle" person's ability, but decided it was probably much less impressive in practice. Of course, it takes her quite a bit of mental effort to write something even if she can do it instantly, so she's quite a strong follower of "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it." Not because she doesn't like arguments - quite the contrary - but because arguments are a pain in the ass when you can't say anything verbally. She wrote down something else on the pad and showed it to the "Kyle" person, gesturing for it to be handed around all the people present before being returned to her. It read "I am Astra. My ability means that if I were to speak, there's no telling what could happen."

Very suddenly, there was a female voice yelling in his head:

Siobhan: <HE is my room-mate?!? H-H-HE CAN'T!!! He is way to-to bonnie and intimidating...>

With wide eye's Kyler looked up from his hand, meeting Siobhan's horrified gaze. She flashed him her own stamp, which cleared read X-13. They were roommates, and so he could reasonably assume that she had been the voice in his head. A telepath? He thought with interest, watching as she stomped off. I wonder if I said, or thought, anything to offend her?

Guilt washed over Kyler, a frown now dominating his facial features. He watched her walk away for a moment, ignoring Nic's question all together. "I'll see you guys later," Kyler said before jogging after the girl with red hair. He caught up to her easily, falling into step with her. Kyler reached up and rubbed the back of his head- a nervous habit.

"Uh..." He began wanting to be sure he didn't say anything wrong. She was already upset, the last thing Kyler wanted to do was offend her even more. "Sorry of I hurt you feelings or anything, I really didn't mean to. If it would make things easier for you we could split our dorm in half, and I'll just stay on my side?"

Kyler looked down at her, his face still twisted in confusion and guilt. He hadn't even gotten her name yet and she already seemed to strongly dislike him. This was a rare occurrence for Kyler- being strongly disliked like this. He didn't like the feeling it gave him.

I guess this means I should also start sleeping with a shirt on, Kyler thought as he waited for her reply. If she thinks I look intimidating with clothes on I don't even want to know what she would think of me with them off... I wonder if it would have been easier if I was paired with another boy for a roommate? For a moment he considered suggesting that she request a different roommate, but he knew the facility wouldn't issue her a new one.

Kyle looked at the girl who seemed to be not very impressed. This was disheartening to Kyle. After all, besides the mental control he required to not change his form, he really liked his ability. However, the stud really liked his powers or so it seemed. He was probably just being nice to look good in font of the two girls. Still, it made Kyle feel a little better so he decided to take it at face value. Then the stud made a rock move. This reminded Kyle of this anime he saw though. He started imagination the things done in the show and did not realized his hand turning into a rock claw. When he caught it he quickly hid it behind him and reverted it back. He heard Siobhan cheering him on in his thoughts. Now he felt really bad for the name thing. He would have to apologize after this. Sadly she ran off somewhere without saying anything. "Maybe she really was hurt," he thought to his self. After which the girl with the notepad gave him her notepad which read her name and power. Astra, it was a pretty name for sure but her power was too vague. If she talked bad things happened... surely she jested. He wanted to laugh and suggest that it could not be that bad but with all the feelings he hurt already, he decided to stay quiet about his opinion. Unlike Siobhan, he had to live with Astra so he figured he should not piss her off just yet. Then Kyler introduced his self and ran after the girl. Which left Kaos, Astra and another kid name Nic.

Kyle did not notice Nic till Kyler ran off and Nic asked about his room number. Kyle sighed, feeling like the odd one out.

"I am pretty new here too, you know." he said while handing Alice back her notebook. "You should look for your roommate, he/she would have the same number and might be able to show you."

@Karakui @parkpyro

 

[Karakui]

"Don't worry, I at least am aware you're new." Fortress, having sneaked up behind Kyle now patted his head and ruffled his hair, as if trying to reassure a little kid that nothing bad was going to happen. She stood in the middle of the group of new people, and slowly rotated, stopping to stare at each of them before listing their details. "Kaos, the child who can transform. Say, can you do a shark? I like sharks. You should transform for me sometime." Rotate. "Aural Catastrophe. That's the name the higher ups have for you. A bit rude if you ask me, but I suppose it's rather accurate." Astra scowled upon hearing that, and began thinking of lyrics she might be able to use should it be necessary. "Finally, you. I don't know what you're supposed to be." She was addressing Nic. "I heard brief passing conversation about a new guy who was supposed to be able to 'control their limits' or something like that, but i have no idea what that means." She now changed position and slowly strolled in a circle around the trio. "Anyway, I'm here to tell you that I'm pretty much in charge of this place. I'm not going to suggest you don't cross me, because it's fun when people try, but I'll warn you not to do it halfheartedly. You don't have your head 100% in the game and you're going to lose."

Who was this girl who had this aura of superiority and she called him Kaos. Kyle froze as his imagination ran whiled. Was she the villain, the boss, or just a bluff. Somehow he could not picture the third option. He clenched his fist. She called him out and mentioned he should turn into a shark. Kyle knew he could turned completely into a shark; but then he would think he was a shark and think like a shark, which would be bad. As Kyle's mind wandered, his teeth turned sharp like those of a shark.

Kaos, the name which represented the monster side of him. Kaos would make a great shark but Kyle did not want to be Kaos. His teeth returned to normal but his angry was still rising. His hand turned grey as it was about to transform to a drill but then he stopped. As she said her last statement, Kaos felt the presence of death. This girl was not normal, and his body knew it. He did not know what he should do but he knew he wanted to get away from her. He turned to Astra who did not seem to like the girl either. He walked to Astra and whispered in her ear, "I dont think we should hang around her any longer... Should we find the rooms?"

[~\The Talentless/~]

Laying his head on the wall, he was left alone with his thoughts. It brought him to his first day, when his gift came to him. Blood like blades popped up from every inch of his body, with every movement, he ended up slicing through everything as if it was butter, including his toilet and sink. It was only then when he passed out did it all die down, he awoke laying in a pool of his own blood. The amount of blood on the floor was astonishing, he should've been dizzy, or even seeing triple. But he felt fine, and he was left with no wounds. It was only a few days later when he figured out how to call upon the ability, but drawing blood out. He dared not to try and make any blades appear from his body, in fear that he might end up hurting someone.

Coming back to reality, Matt turned around and sat up against the wall, and stared at his palm. He again bit his thumb, and drew blood. A small stream of blood began to make its way out like with serpent like qualities. He made the serpent weave in and out between all his fingers, just to pass the time. But after a few laps of it, he made a sphere of it in the middle of his palm, about a half a size bigger than the bullet he made earlier in the day. He focused both eyes on it, and the sphere began to vibrate violently, before it made a knife like structure appear in his hands, completely solid, and made entirely of his blood. The blade was smooth and had a hexagon pattern on the surface of it. He closed his hand, and gripped onto the handle part, and a small smile appeared on his face. "damn... why didn't I think of this sooner." He said out loud, then again focusing on the blade, and suddenly it extended out, taking the shape of a katana causing Matt to jump from the sudden expansion of the blood weapon. The weapon still didn't change in weight, and felt rather balanced, "HOLY SHIT..." He yelped. Then stood up and held it with two hands, "whoa....oh I like.." And as those words came out of his mouth, Kate walked into the room, causing him to panic, and the weapon suddenly became liquid before the blood streams went back into his wound.

Expecting another scolding, Matt grew quiet until she gave him a paper and pen and gave him the option of choosing the furniture. "w-whoa...I get to be a room designer? Man, this day got better" He ended up checking off a few things "okay lets see...couches, a large one obviously, with a solo recliner...wait make that two, some dressers, maybe one with a mirror, some N tables and a coffee table, two twin size beds, cause I know we ain't sleeping in the same bed, I'm not risking if your a kicker or not, Now all we need is some posters" He finished, reviewing the whole paper.

Siobhan whipped around and stared at Kyler as she felt the confusion and that he thought she didn't like him. She gulped as he thought about how he slept. "I am no' mad at ye Kyler. I..." Siobhan stopped talking. <I'm not good with spoken words most of the time. My accent gets caught on them. So right answers...telepath yes, empath as well. Which means I read emotions as well as thoughts. Which I don't do unless asked or in times of high stress. As for you stay on my side-> She turned scarlet. <I mean I stay on my side you stay on yours we both know that never works. Besides one of us is bound to either have all the electrical outlets, the bathroom or the door cause lets face it that's how these things go. So I respect you, you respect me. And we will both be wearing clothes to bed. Shirt for you is optional by society but not for me...damnit I'm mucking this up...wear it don't wear it...not that I don't care...> Siobhan blanched <I'm telepathically rambling...I am so shutting up now.>

Nic looked back at the number on his hand after he had been told that he would have a room mate. The news wasn't great to him, since it meant he would have to share the room. His traiin of thought was stopped when another girl, a cockyer one, appeared in the group. She seemed to list of the people, like she knew exactly who everyone was.

Nicolas grinned when she reached him, luckily she seemed to know little about him. "since you have given us all nicknames, mine can be Zver" he told her, a primal gleam in his eye as he said it. He enjoyed her over confidence, it was always fun killing cocky people. However Nicolas was more interested with the boy, he could tell he was uneasy.

Nicolas decided that finding his room was probably a good idea. As he walked past Kyle he placed one hand on the boys should. "don't worry you aren't the only monster here" he told him with a smile that revealed his slightly sharp teeth. Nic began to walk away from the small group, his dog tags clattering around his neck as he did.

"A kicker.. Hmm, wise choice indeed, my apprentice." she said, mimicking a Palpatine voice. It felt amazing, holding up her geek card with the pride that was natural to her. "If that will be all, I'll return this to the booth, I'm sure we'll be getting our furniture soon." with the words she went to take the paper from Matthew, she didn't take a moment to look over the choices. She preferred the surprise of it all. With a little salute she turned and walked out of the door, going back to the same place to turn in the paper.

 

[QwibInTheWibs]

"Any luck?"

The question played itself in the soldier's earpiece, it was a question that he had grown to expect, every few minutes. A low sigh escaped him. "No I did not have any fucking luck. The town's pretty deserted, I'm starting to think that we're all wasting our time here." he replied, disgruntled. His head craned upwards, towards the colossus that towered over the town, his eyes trailed it, there wasn't many holes in it from what he could see, so the only areas of escape were the tubes that grew from the giant.

There were practically hundreds of those however, and many a fellow soldier had already come to the conclusion. Some of them climbing up the giant's body by way of wires. They had not even gotten up to any of the tubes yet to begin drilling.

"I don't know, man, these freaks aren't exactly predictable, maybe it's just waiting for us to let our guards down.. But I would love a break, preferably with you."

The other soldier didn't even try to be subtle about the request. "Shit, dude. Sometimes I feel like you probably have powers yourself. Is that why I can hardly resist?"

"You'll never know."

A smile came to the Soldier's lips, as a tongue ran through it. His suit was getting a little warm with the words, thoughts of entertaining such a request going through his mind. It was broken however as a screech broke through the air. He froze, the screech had.. it just had not sounded human, it was the only way he could describe it. Movies were his only experience of things that didn't sound human however, and that was a very horror monster screech.

His head slowly tilted upwards yet again, towards the giant, and his eyes widened. There was a hole in it, a small one in comparison to the giant. It was human sized.

And then the sounds of gunshots began, accompanied by very human screaming. It was always quick, and cut off, only to be added by more gunshots and screaming. The Soldier's index finger went to his earpiece. "What the fuck is going on?" he asked. But there was no reply, the color drained from his face, if that was possible, considering how pale he already was. "Marcus?" he said, his voice low. Again there was no reply.

"Marcus, come on man, quit fucking with me, t- this is all some joke right? Please Marcus PLEASE reply.. please.."

His pleas were unanswered, it was too much. He sunk to his knees, eyes set forward as the sounds of gunshots and screams continued to fill the air. And then movement flashed in front of him. There it was, the monster. It had a body made of stone, with elongated limbs, and a mostly human head, except for the random stone structures that protruded from it. That was the one, the thing that had killed Marcus. Tears came to his eyes, as he slowly got up. He stared at the physical embodiment of death. And it smiled.

His rifle aimed up at it, but he couldn't even add the sounds of his bullets to the air before he felt the enemies' hand pierce through his stomach. He was lifted up slowly, and brought in close to the creature. Brought to stare into the eyes of it. They were nutty brown.

It then screeched in his face and he felt it's teeth connect with his neck, and that was it, he was going to go join Marcus. And everybody else on this search mission.

A woman later lied down on the pavement, her mouth stained with blood, and her stomach filled with human flesh, but she was not conscious, far from it. A mercy she had not given any of the mangled bodies around her, she would probably never know about what she had done.

A woman came walking up to the unconscious body. The woman was in her forties, and had tanned skin. A smile came onto her lips, as she stared down at the woman. "You made such a mess of this place, didn't ya? Perfect, more gifted like you is needed. I would say you almost matched up to.. her, but that would be too generous." The warden paused to look around at the mangled bodies. "Unlike you, she would not have needed to lift a finger to do what you've done.. But still, with you two I can't imagine what chances our enemies have."

She lifted her hand to an earpiece. "I found the gifted, she is in the Northern outskirts of this backwater place. Come get us."

"Yes ma'am" a voice replied and the Warden moved her hand away from the earpiece.

"I'm sure you'll fit in beautifully."

After some time Nicolas managed to find the room that matched the print on his hand. He opened the door and to his surprise the place was empty. Nic sighed as he entered the empty room. It was rather spacious with what seemed to be a bedroom another room and one bathroom. As Nic examined the room he found that the bathroom was pre-prepared and looked very nice. The boy took of the shirt that was wrapped around his waist and dumped it on the floor. He stretched his arms and legs a little, he grunted slightly since he knew he was going to have to go out again to get some stuff for the room.

Nicolas went on another adventure to find where ever it was to order furniture. Luckily it wasn't too far so he reached the desk pretty fast. The boy picked up a sheet of paper and a pen. He skim read the thing then began to tick of all the basics. Nicolas never lived in great luxury, so didn't see the need for many things. He scribbled his name down, and the room number then gave it to the person behind the desk. Just before leaving Nicolas picked up another sheet, just in case his room mate wanted anything else. Nicolas then made his way back to the empty room. There wasn't really much else to do, since he wasn't sure where everything was, so Nic decided to take a shower. After all he hadn't hand one since yesterday. The boy stripped down and dumped his clothes on the bathroom floor, a nice relaxing shower should help with all the sudden change.

At first Kyler's roommate (Siobhan) tried to speak to him out loud, but then she switched to telepathic communication. She used her accent as an excuse, but that didn't stop Kyler from wondering, What is it with these girls and not talking out loud? Both of the new female inmates he met so far seemed to have alternative ways to talk.

While Siobhan's abilities were interesting- and convenient for her, given her speech issues- they certainly weren't as cool as Kyle's ability was. Still, he did like her ability more than his terrakenisis- but, he was quite fond of his healing factor. However, it did make him a little uncomfortable to know that his roommate would be able to hear his thoughts and feel his emotions. It almost felt like he would have no privacy.

A smile formed on his lips as the female began to ramble on in his head, she was pretty funny. I'll wear a- He started to think, but it just didn't feel right for him to communicate through thoughts. It was much harder for him than he thought it'd be, probably because Kyler was a more outspoken than most people. "Shirt," he finished out loud, before repeating, "I'll just wear a shirt to bed, no worries."

After a moment he asked, "Want me to show you to our dorm? It's pretty empty right now, because I was waiting for a roommate before I figured out how to furnish it. I thought I should wait for my roommate so they could have a say in the way it'll look and all... Oh! And, I didn't catch your name?" He offered her a kind smile, hoping that she would learn to like him. She didn't have to be his friend, of course, but he'd prefer it if they at least got along. Especially since we'll be sleeping in the same room...

Siobhan grimaced as she blushed and cleared her throat. "I can talk ye ken? I'm jus' no' righ' proud o' da fact dat I canna be understood most times." Siobhan stood up straighter and mustered all her courage and looked him in the eye. "Me name is Siobhan (Chiv-von). An' if we could I'd swap powers wit' ye I'd do it any day. Hearin' others thoughts is a mite unsettlin' ye ken? I donna want ta feel others I want me own...like befor'." She sighs and smiles sadly at Kyler. "Mebe lookin' at furnishin' da room is a good idea. Lead on Kyler."
