Stepping Out into a New World (Open: Regular)

Willow steps off the train through the doors just a little way away from Lauren.

She had on a flannel shirt over a black t-shirt with some obscure metal band album printed over it worn over a pair of faded blue jeans with the knees a little ripped.

She seems preoccupied with texting her worried mother to tell her she just arrived and yes, she's sure she didn't leave anything on the train, and yes she took her medicine, and yes she will call her soon. her roller suitcase kicks against the space between the train and the concrete and getting stuck. She turns around, trying to pull it out, but drops her phone between the space and slides her bag away from the train, diving down to her knees and curling her fingers around the aluminum edge to look under the train in panic.

"Shit, Shit, Fuck, Dammit!"

"Shit." He will move over to Willow abandoning his bag to try and help the girl. "Hey be careful you don't want to lose your hand over a phone right?" He bit his lip a little he wasn't a great deal of use with his broken get. He will put up a hand and a floating piece of Smoky Quartz will appear to keep people from bumping into him and Willow.

"No, no it's okay, I just have to grab it before the train starts moving. I think I can see it, hold on. Watch my bags for me, okay?"

Willow takes a deep breath and her skin and clothes turn a transparent white, nearly invisible in the sunlight. Her long, stringy black hair begins to float like tendrils in the depths of an inky black lake. A cold wind cuts through the surrounding patrons, causing a few of the passersby to cradle their elbows in their jackets shivering, but they do not seem to notice her as she swims through the concrete. trails of visible white air can be seen slithering beneath the train, staying then fading as she emerges again behind Lauren, taking her suitcase. "Got it!"

Lauren will take the bag and after a moment make an oh sound. "That is a really cool power!" He exclaims and in his excitement drops the shield. "Oh yeah I am a student but I am not sure if my power is that good. The recruiter said I was a bit undeveloped. That's okay I am just glad to be here. I'm Lauren, everyone calls me Law."

He will give a little wave to Aisling and Grace.

Ash steps off the train, rubbing his eyes. The small young man, smaller then most at his age of 16, is slender and lightly covered in striped white and black fur, much like a silver tabby cat. Feline ears twitch from atop his head, as his tail flicks this way and that. He is dressed in grey cargo pants and a battered hoody.

He glances around seeing the others,and starts to head toward them before being distracted by a nearby food vendor, his nose and tail twitching.

Ash finally makes it over to the others, eating some fish and chips.

"Is this the group for the school?"

He doesn't wait for a response before hopping up onto a near by bit of whatever is handy to sit on, eating his snack. His ear twitch a bit as he watches them, his tail flicking here and there.

Looking a little confused now as the girl she turned to address kinda seems to step by her to respond to the people behind her and the phasing girl sort of looks right by her to talk to the other two, starting to wonder if she said something wrong. The boy with the hurt leg seemed to wave at her, that's something at least, returning it a little shyly, pointing to the half-cast he is still wearing "Uhm.. doesnt that hurt?"
She steps forward to touch it lightly, sending a little jolt of healing magic into the leg, hoping it'll be enough to repair it
Turning with a little jump to the new voice, seeing the boy with the.. tail? and cat ears? That must be magic too! "Yeah... we're all for the school i think.. i read something about the.. north exit?"

Aisling gave a small nod in reply to Lauren before replying. "Gods, so many people here now." She said, looking around at the group, giving a slight wave to everyone before looking to Lauren and Willow.

"Yeah, I'm a student also and I guess a goth as well? Anyways at least your powers aren't situational like mine."

Claire steps of the train slinging her book-bag further up on her shoulder and pulling her parka closed over her uniform. She smiles lightly in anticipation, after a year abroad she can't wait to get back and see what has changed in her absence. Seeing a group of kids clearly displaying some magic she takes a quick hit from her vape before making her way over to wait by the group for the limos. She nods her head at the group but makes no effort to join in their conversation preferring to watch the clouds move across the sky.

Ash blinks at the sudden question and swallows the mouthful of fish, and grins, revealing sharp feline teeth.
"Yup, ears are real, tail is real, teeth are real, eyes are real, fur is real. I'm real."

The short cat boy then holds out some of his fish and chips. "Want some?"

Luaren will return to the group with his bag. "Phew! my stuff is alright."

"Cool. I like them," Lauren says in reply to the nod. "Yeah it is pretty crowded." He pauses and then smiles widely. "Are we going to talk about our powers? I am completely up for that. Even if mine aren't so big."

"Hey I'm Lauren. Call me Law," he says to Ezra as they walk up. "You going to Talisien too?"

Lauren will make a little waving jesture at Claire, but she seems distracted so he doesn't worry too much when she wanders off.

"Oh ow that's some bad luck," He winces at Willow mentioning how many phones she's lost.

Lauren is going to watch the catboy a little. He's not in the conversation with Ash, how cool is it that he doesn't look normal.

He will look to Grace, "Sorry about that I abandoned my bag. I think they are waiting for us at the North Entrance. Also thank you so much for fixing my leg."

Aisling shot a smile to Ezra, Claire, and Ash, her fangs on display as she fully removed her headphones to better hear what was going on.

"Nice to meet you all, uh, Lauren, you said people were waiting for us somewhere north, right?" She asked, turning to Lauren before taking out a small water bottle filled with a red liquid and taking a small sip of it before continuing her train of thought, "Would it be a good idea to head over there and just pick up whoever we can along the way?"

Willow did not see the glimpse of fangs, but rather shook her head at Ash's offer, just now coming to terms that things are probably gonna be a little strange from now on, and you know what? That's pretty cool actually. She grins, showing her misshapen teeth "All yours, dude. I got my own food. I think that's pretty rad though. Having cat ears. I'm Willow by the way."

She adjusts her backpack, several pins rattling over the back flap. Inside a glimpse of several sketchbooks and art supplies can be seen and takes her luggage following Claire to the north entrance.







(Bit confused and overwhelmed and i do want to reply in a timely manner, so i apologize if i leave anyone out)

Grace gave a small smile in Law's direction "You're welcome... and it's okay, I saw what was going on.."
Then she ponders Ash's very valid question for a moment "I guess.. they wouldn't name it as a landmark if it wasn't posted somehwere or something... so maybe there will be signs pointing there inside the building?"
She looks around the group, trying to put names to faces since it's been a whole bunch of people introducing themselves in rapid order, grabbing her bags once more, muttering under breath "Law, Willow, Aisling, Ash, Ezra.."
