Y-yes...

[Was she tricked? But if she called him out on that, she would be admitting to it. And she did accept the role, didn't she? Whatever had just happened...]

There will be no better Viola than myself.

[If she acts like she meant to do this all along, then nobody would think she had been tricked.]

"I am not the wrong one!" Ayaka insisted, "And that has nothing to do with my skull!"

There was clearly something wrong with her. The tree should have been enough to dissuade any sane person, but... there she was, still arguing.

Amon didn't react much to the sharp teeth. (Looking at what was left of his face was still one of the most frightening and disturbing images he had seen....)

"It's all right," Amon said, taking off his coat and beginning to wring it dry. "I was walking too close to the lake."

I see.

[She doesn't really care because she's terribly selfish like that]

[But as long as they were sharing stories-]


If I recall correctly, my father said something about me needing a normal lifestyle and education.

But there isn't anything wrong that required sending me here.

[Prose]

She wasn't much for the weight training anymore, given her ability, but there was still plenty for her to do in the gymnasium. Sports were always fun, after all.

Currently, she was practicing her three-pointers. But not from the three-point line. That would be too easy. No, she was clear on the other side of the court, next to the ball rack. She gaged the location of the hoop, and let the ball free.

Said ball sailed over the expanse of the court . . . and bounced off the rim. Oh, well. So her aim wasn't perfect yet. That was something to work on.

[Here, network: have an offended Sango trying to hold in her temper. Considering how much she's scowling, she may not be having a lot of success.]

I'd really prefer to get a new lab partner for chem class. I'm going to wind up killing my current excuse of one if he keeps hitting on me. If anybody else needs a partner, please step up; I can't deal with this guy anymore.

Kenzi sighed and rubbed her face. She couldn't decide if she wanted to send the brat into orbit, hang her up by the back of her coat from the tallest point on the school or just fly off.

In the end she drifted off over the school, likely finding somewhere on the roof to settle.

The sharkgirl pulled herself out of the water and set about wringing out her hair. She glanced around to make sure her clothing hadn't mysteriously wandered off. Luckily it didn't seem anyone had thought it a good idea to pull that prank on her.

She turned her attention back to the boy and smiled again. "I'm Aschka."

"Amon," he said, and gave his coat one last flap before slipping it back on. Then he remembered that polite manners probably demanded more. "A pleasure to meet you, Aschka."

Kenzi had been sleeping between rows on the stands. Odd place to sleep but hey she was tired and she needed a nap. However dreamland was disturbed by the sound of someone shooting hoops.

With a groan the dark haired girl pulled herself and looked around the gym. She watched as Sango's shot bounced off the rim and couldn't help but clap.

"Damn close!" she called down from her perch.

She nodded and stood. "You can call me Asch." She did her best to dust the dirt and leaves off herself and made her way over to the clothes.

"Are you new here? Or have I just never seen you before?" Despite mutants being a minority, the school had a rather large student population. Easy not to know every single one here.

"New." she called back as she pulled on her shirt.

"Same here." Amon leaned against a nearby tree. "Are you adjusting well?"

Her earfins drooped in response to the question. For a few moments she remained silent, redressing herself and fussing with her gloves.

"Truthfully? No. The water here is terrible and it's too cold."

She was mildly startled at the sudden applause. She hadn't thought anyone else was in here. Huh. How had she missed that, anyway? Well, maybe the other girl had just come in.

"Yeah, I'm getting better at this distance. Getting it far enough isn't an issue; just need to work on my aim a bit."

Sango was a good shot, in general. Just not a perfect one; it wasn't anything she couldn't work on, and she of anyone didn't mind hard work.

"Did you just come in here? Sorry I didn't notice; I was a bit in the zone."

Takumi Ogami - Kamen Rider Decade (Faiz World)

[Action/First Person]

Looking at the news today, you see a lot of rough things in the media. Between hurricanes and talks about registration.

What's your take on everything everyone? Your opinion matters after all.


[Prose]

Maybe its late, maybe something had caught your eye, but in the courtyard, well under the radar of the security fought two opponents. One of them was a white-lion like creature who seemed to be doing its best to kill the opponent. The opponent in question was a tall masculine frame that wielded a glowing red sword, cutting into the enemy several times before staggering it back.

Said creature threw out tentacles which slammed through the ground, trying to pierce him through as he cut several off when they got too close. Flipping off a device, he latched it onto his leg as the monster or mutant or whatever, leaped at him and he kicked out, drilling a cone of energy into it.

Falling back, Faiz crouched low, ready to deal the final blow. Do you stop him or let it go through as that red destructive cone kept the enemy at bay.


[Prose the Second]

Takumi yawned as he wandered the campus, taking pictures. It had taken him a while but he had obtained a new fashioned polaroid, and was snapping photographs of everything; trees, buildings, things like that. He wore an uncharacteristic smile on his face, like everything was right in his world, so unlike the nervous teen. Bother?

She nodded, "Kauaʻi." She turned back to face him, still fidgeting with her gloves. Webbed hands were not really made for wearing gloves but she needed them. "Much prefer the warm saltwater to this," she motions to the lake, "cold murky thing."

[She huffs a little at the reminder of her current partner. If the guy "accidentally" brushes his hand over her chest while reaching for something one more time . . .]

Lucky for just general stupidity. I'm about ready to piledrive the lech I'm working with at the moment. [This, sadly, is not hyperbole.]

Anyway, I take chem pretty seriously, and it's one of my better classes. You wouldn't have to worry about stupidity from me.

Kenzi focused on one of the balls and sent it back across the court where it settled back on the rack. "I was sleeping up here." she responded with a yawn.

She did the same with another ball as she stood and began to make her way down the bleachers. "The aim is always the hardest part." She squinted over at the far hoop and attempted to send one of the balls through it without actually guiding it through the hoop.

She missed by at least a foot.

And I keep my hands to myself, so you don't need to worry about that.

So, we both meet with the professor, I guess? To make the switch?

"Big difference from there to here."

Watching her fidget with her gloves made him want to fidget with his.
