Whoops. Should I have brought a vase? Time to show off, I guess, and prove I can do more with my gifts than hurt people. Ryan closes his eyes and smiles, focusing the cosmic energy surrounding his body into something more tangible, shaping it into a physical form. He then hands Anika a glass vase. Wow, that took a lot out of me. I'm kind of tired now.

Anika stares at the vase in her hands dumbfounded. "You can make things out of your energy? Wow, that's so cool." She gets some water and puts the flowrs in it, setting it on her desk.

Ryan shrugs. "Well, we could use SARAH to try and find some people. Maybe get to know some of the new kids, say hi to Mark and Star or something. Have you met Charlotte yet? What about John?" I really don't like that spoiled little kid Kelly. She's not very considerate, leaving water all of the gym. I wonder what that other brat, Tommy, is doing tonight? Probably watching us all on camera while we dance.

"Charlotte, the goth girl? No, we haven't formally met, but I've seen her around. John...I wonder if he's with Sarah again. I went to see her last night and he was there. I guess he really doesn't have a date, I wonder if he's even going to the dance. Poor Sarah, I really hope she wakes up soon. And speaking of Sarah, I sure hope Jimmy's not there tonight. That muscle-head couldn't speak civilly if his life depended on it." Anika thinks a moment and says, "Yeah, let's go see Star. She was so excited about tonight. Excited. I mean, that's so amazing. There's geniuses and then there's Tommy, I can't believe he actually made her. It hurts my head every time I think about it."

"By the way," she adds with a grin as she opens the door, "I like the smile. It looks good on you, you should do it more often."

Mark, Anika, and Ryan

Star sighs, “Not it does not have to be good, I can compensate for any shortcomings you have Mark. For a first date this will be an illuminating experience. I will say that-”

There is a knock at the door, and it opens after a moment. Star smiles, “Hello Anika, Ryan, welcome, I was just talking to Mark, how are you two doing? Interesting choice in apparel, Ryan. And Anika you look lovely.”

Kelly

Rei puffs out another wisp of smoke in a ring, “Yeah I can handle that. I mean I wasn’t trying to say you couldn’t get in to a club, just saying, this makes my job a whole lot easier. Tell you what, I will be at the dance, come find me when you’re done, and we can bounce, and hit this cool place downtown. I got some contacts on the inside, and they got the sweetest,” he smirks, “party gifts.”

James

Kiyana smiles, and blushes, “Your so silly, of course you can, I have been like waiting, and waiting,” she says with a smile. She turns to James, “This is our night tonight, right?”

Cassie

The restaurant is well in a word posh, modern, and exclusive. No money passes hands, it is all handled by club credit. They show you two to a backroom, which is intimately lit with candles, and quartet of strings play soft music, to add to the ambience. Yoshi shrugs as he pulls a seat out for Cassie, and then sits himself.

“I understand, all that political stuff, just saying the world is changing babe. But hey lets not worry about it, we got like all kinds of time to tackle those big questions. Hey we could use some wine, one of them two hundred dollar bottles,” he says to a waiter who nods and complies.

Yoshi focuses on Cassie, “I wouldn’t worry about your performance all that much. You know for a romantic night, you’re like trying to kill the mood. Come on, let’s forget the other crap, forget about Legacy, and let’s focus on us, and our fun. I mean this is just the beginning babe,” he says as the waiter returns with the wine pouring it for both of you.

He holds up his glass, and takes a sip, “Damn not bad, I guess.”

Aris shrugs, "Good luck," she winks, "Yeah well I hope there is a world to return to. to visit. Of course my concern is your world, and Ryan," she says dryly, "but right now, it seems that even that can wait till after this dance."

"Thanks," she says with a smile, "I doubt that Overseer will try something on your Earth while Genocide and the Scarlet Witch are here, wasn't Genocide his general or something? Maybe they are stuck here just like you guys," she shrugs "At the very least we can have some fun tonight while we're keeping an eye on Ryan."

"And he isn't all bad, just dense, like lead, but at least he looks good in a pir of jeans," she says with a grin.

Karen replies with a shy smile "His denseness shouldn't be a problem, I don't seem to be real good at hiding it."
 

John spends the few hours before the dance surfing the vitrual net at his usual websites. It seems that there is a big debate whether the new changes to the Dungeons & Dragons 6th edition Revision #5 make it worth buying the original, albiet updated, books all over again. John logs in and puts in his two cents, before heading off to take a shower and change clothes. He finishes his shower and fixes his hair before putting on his khaki pants, navy blue shirt and tie. He hangs around for a bit more before going back to see Sarah.
Mentally he says, "Hey, Sarah. Can you hear me? How are things going today? Probably a silly question. Like how do you think things are going, silly? I'm in a coma. That's how things are going. Well, anyway, I'll be here until you get better. I'm going to the dance tonight, but I'm going by myself. But I'll be back here later on."

OOC: sorry about the lack of posting; been a bit busy.

Cassie nods. "I'm sory Yoshi, it is that the whole events of the last bit have been on my mind." smiles and settels in her chair. "I would like to try some wine." sips a bit of the offered glass and gasps. "It has a pleasent taste but with a bit of a bite." takes another careful sip. "So, what would you suggest we try for dinner?"
 

Charlotte opens the door and finds herself face to face with a large bouquet of roses, and behind it a handsome face of a dark skinned foreigner with long hair. He wears shades, and has on a dress shirt with nice slacks, and shoes. A European flavor, to his style, and a grin on his face, he hands the roses to Charlotte, “Evening Charlotte,” he says in a baritone of a voice, with light inflection of an accent in his speech.

“Just call me Victor or the evening. The roses are for you, and I would love to have the pleasure to escort you this evening to the dance,” he smiles.

]"You're too kind, Victor." Charlotte says, doing a mock curtsey. She then takes the flowers, smelling them, before looking back to her mystery date, giving a grin equal to his. "You look very handsome tonight, I'm impressed."

Dropping her overly dramatic manner, she continues, "Seriously though, you didn't have to go all out...thanks. So, where to?"

"Thanks, Star, you look great, too," she says, smiling at Star. She looks at Ryan, giving him the once-over, "Wow, you clean up pretty nicely, wouldn't you agree, Star?" she says with a grin.

"Yeah, it is kind of a shame about Sarah and John. I really wish there was something we could do." I hate feeling useless like this. At least John and Sarah will be able to go out once she wakes up, instead of with that punk Jimmy. What does she see in that bully? Well, heck, what does Anika see in me? Anyway, I hope Jimmy runs his mouth tonight so I can smack him twenty feet into the ground.

I smile all the time! Or is that more of a sneer? Maybe I should compare them in the mirror.

Ryan does a short little wave towards Mark and Star. "Hey, Mark, you look great tonight. You too Star. As for my interesting choice of apparel, I have a rather interesting appearance, so they go well together," Ryan explains, a slight edge to his voice. Learn some tact, Star. You don't see me making fun of your blue hair or crazy eyes or the fact that you're creator is a ten year old brat. "So how you guys doing?"

Karen

Aris smirks, “Don’t worry about Kal, he is a guy, bat your eyes, strut your stuff, as dense as he is, he will come running as soon as he thinks your interested. But enough about him, I get enough of him on a daily basis.”

Claire smiles, “Yeah men who needs them.”

Aris smirks, "We don’t need them, but they can be useful for some things,” she smiles wickedly.

Claire shakes her head, “You are bad Aris, so shall we get ready to go, I think I have my outfit all together now.”

John

There is no reply from Sarah as usual. Only silence dominates the room as she floats in the tube, almost lifeless, but the machines seem to be measuring a steady pulse. It is only after long minutes that John feels someone else in the room. As he turns he spots Jimmy, standing about five behind him.

“Easy John, I am not here to get into a pissing contest. I just wanted to see Sarah one last time, she looks pretty bad. I don’t like seeing her like that, she was full of like life and stuff. For a girlfriend she wasn’t that bad,” he smiles for a moment, “but all good things have to come to an end right?”

Jimmy tosses John a silver necklace with one half of a silver heart dangling on it. Jimmy spoke, “Sarah will know what it means make sure she gets it, and take care of John, she won’t understand. But it does not matter,” he hoists a pack over his shoulder.

“See you round John, good luck with that Legacy thing,” he turns to go.

Cassie

“I don’t know, this is my first time here,” he shrugged, “hey waiter, get us the chef specialty, whatever he recommends we are eating. There problem solved.”

He smirks, “Well yeah some big stuff happened, but I mean we can’t dwell on it right?” he takes another sip, “Tonight is going to rock, we are so getting trashed after the dance. I got everything lined up babe, we are going to have a blast.”

Charlotte

“I figured she would make it as real as possible and enjoy ourselves, besides, this is fun. I get to be a whole different person, like putting on a mask, but even better. And as far as where to from here, the dance starts in a bit, so find a vase, and lets get going, we can meet up with Lisa and Yoko.”

James, Mark, and Anika

Star smiles, “Yeah everyone looks great, I can’t wait to see the others. Too bad Tommy is working on stuff tonight, he asked Kelly, but she turned him down, something about her image being tarnished if seen with him. He wasn’t really disappointed though, I don’t think these kind of functions are his forte.”
