Reaching the average height for a male, Mathias' look isn't all to impressive or threatening. His lithe build makes him more agile and swift than strong and brute, making him a fast fighter and swift defender. His eyes are probably the most unnerving thing about him, the light blue soothing and calm whilst the pink is bright and distracting, for most people he's met it's been of putting and unsettling, people mistake him for a mutant quite a number of times, until they notice the glowing scar.

Mathias is described as more of a pretty boy than a hot one, his features are soft and rather kind, more often seen as inviting rather than indulgent. He prefers his face clean shaven, it looks cleaner and makes him look younger than when his facial hair is left to grow. As for his apparel, Mathias opts for faux leather jackets and dark skinny jeans, ranging from navy to a dark blue denim, never black denim though. His wardrobe is mostly T-shirts, thin hoodies, a few plaid shirts, denim skinny jeans, typically skinny but there's a few spray on in there too, and also sweats, no wardrobe is complete without them.

Then there's his suit, Stark Industries made for increased agility and defence. The material and design making it light enough for Mathias' swift movements and the scale plating providing some much needed protection for his vulnerable human body.

โ•ฐโ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ•ฏ

Charismatic โœซ Thoughtful โœซ Caring โœซ Stubborn

Mathias is a people person, through and through. He's thoughtful of other people's wants and needs, and often quite empathic to those needs, so much so he'd probably give his vocal cords to help them be met, if he liked them well enough for that, mostly he's happy to help anyone. He cares too much not to. But he knows there are some people who don't deserve the help, either because of the way they treat other people or the way they treat him, on a good day though, Mathias can be very laid back about the treatment of himself.

Besides being the people's provider, Mathias loves any chance he gets to go out and socialise with people. He'll attend most things he's invited to, unless he's already got his pyjamas on, don't ever try to get him out of his pyjamas, well there's always exceptions but that's not for here. Mathias is generally easy going about where he goes, who he sees and what he does, but if he's already set on staying somewhere, hates who you're planning on seeing, or dislikes what you're going to do, he'll be as stubborn as a mule, although sometimes he's swayable. Sometimes, he'll come with, obviously he won't be happy and will be quiet in his distaste or he'll be huffy and either split from the group and stay put or split from the group and head home.

If you think he's stubborn then, he can very easily aggravated when referred to as a know-it-all and gets rather upset when people play on it and make him being wrong a bigger deal than it needs be, on bad days, it may be enough to even make him cry, that's what happens when you mix stubborn and caring together.

P O W E R S
โœซ Augmented Vocal Cords - The technicians from Stark Industries bionically altered and greatly enhanced Mathias' vocal cords. He can emit a high pitch scream sufficient to drown out the sound made by a jet engine if a jet were to be within a few feet of a person.
โœซ Emotional and Physiological Manipulation - Mathias can alter his vocal cords so that every note on the scale that he screamed induced a different effect on those that heard it. An A cord could result in temporary blindness, a B cord resulted in an extreme sense of euphoria, and a high C resulted in people experiencing vivid visual hallucinations.
โœซ Acoustikinesis - Gold can generate powerful sonic blasts, sonic force-fields, and can even create solid objects created from sound including battering rams, pincers and platforms.
โœซ Flight - By creating wings out of pure sound energy, Gold can propel himself through the air at great speeds; most likely supersonic at the speeds of sound.

A B I L I T I E S
โœซ Hand-to-Hand Combat - Mathias was trained by his mother to be an expert combatant in hand-to-hand combat, enhanced with his technologically-enhanced Chakram.
โœซ Enhanced Endurance - Mathias has gone through extensive training to build up his pain tolerance, his stamina and his overall strength.
โœซ Superhuman Agility - Mathias' ability to fly and manipulate sound enable him to perform feats that some have to train extensively to achieve.
โœซ Throwing - Due to utilising Chakram in combat, Mathias has developed an accuracy in his throwing but he is far from the level of the Bullseyes, due to the Chakram being technically altered it returns to him via biometrics and manipulated sound waves.

W E A K N E S S E S
โœซ Needs Particle Vibrations - Without particles vibrating, there can be no sound for Mathias to use his powers.
โœซ Water - Underwater, Mathias powers are hindered by the reduced rate of vibrations.
โœซ Human - Can still suffer from mortal injuries, needs time to recover after encounters.

ImageImageImageUnlike many of her allies, Melissa Gold decided to hang up her colours long before many of the other heroes, she'd been many things in her long history and by the end of her career, she was just tired. So she moved to England, to settle down in a place where not many people would know her face and she could live hassle free, eventually she made her own family and vowed to never have her son go through what she went through and so, she became a dedicated mother, sheltering the child and coddling him too much.
However, as every sheltered child knows, the rebellious phase lasts a lot longer and can be a lot more destructive than most. Having developed his powers quite early, Mathias fell in with a rather odd group, mostly they'd just hang around an old warehouse turned skate park and mess around like kids, but as they got older, the group of kids turned into a sort of gang, they weren't a rough gang, until one of them suggested stealing something valuable. Obviously the one Mathias was somewhat infatuated with was the one who came up with the whole plan, making Mathias more eager to carry it out, to impress the guy.
Using his powers, Mathias managed to get the gang in and out, using his sound constructs to unlock the doors. However, security discovered them, as the gang were making their escape, resulting in Mathias getting separated and chased to the roof, at the edge of with Mathias was forced to take a leap of faith he took the leap of faith and used his constructs to fly below, landing on a passing taxi, which startled the driver and caused him to crash, in the accident Mathias' neck was broken and his vocal cords damaged.
When he awoke, he discovered he wasn't in a normal hospital and was in fact in the London facility for Stark Industries, his neck had been healed and his vocal cords repaired and augmented, giving him full access to his mother's powers. Melissa had hoped to keep Mathias out of the scene, but it was either lose him to an accident or give him to the Academy, in the hopes he'd survive the accident. Since he survived, he's been giving his own costume and place in the Academy, a place he rarely takes seriously.

Kids in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, how about sing at glass breaking pitches? No one ever said we couldn't do that.

ImageIn Mathias' words...
"Not too shabby, Mr Stark really knows how to pull out all the stops. I mean, sure I designed it but it was the industries that actually paid for it. Did not think a two man shower would swing either but hey, there's a two-man shower! Which I now realise is moot, seeing as this is a classified location and I'm pretty sure bringing guys back here would result in some form of punishment, or worse shunning.
Fitted with a music system that plays throughout the apartment and lights with various settings, I could see a great many fiesta happening in here. Not before I at least test how strong the glass is against my vocal chords though, if it can withstand my high notes, it can withstand a couple of drunk baby hulks."

ImageAll washed and refreshed, smelling of her favorite strawberry/vanilla body wash and her hair smelling like the shampoo and conditioner hairdressers use in their store, she wrapped a towel around her body and faced her mirror. So this was it. The night that had to live up to its own hype. As she dried her hair, she thought on how Jai might behave around several pretty 'dressed to impress' women and smiled to herself. The dance catered for more than it let on. Even if they didn't like dancing, and there was always that "didn't feel like it" or "too cool" for dancing type, people would be looking in their primes tonight. Even for the less normal there was bound to be some other tension and drama for them to leech off.

Her hands moved steadily to take care of her makeup while her towel remained securely around her. She knew what she was doing after all....as much as she may have misjudged the time taken to feel so revived and fresh. Lilith sighed out gently at the idea of being late to a well-earned dance with her partner. She glanced to her dress laid out on her bed and moved to get dressed. She smoothed down nonexistent bumps in the material that hugged her just right. Nothing hulk-like nor Mr. Fantastic elastic-like but a perfect medium. With one last touch, being some complementary red lipstick, she smiled to herself and spun on her heel to join the merriment. At the same time there was a knock on her door and she allowed herself to smile once more. Lilith opened her door to Jai. He was off and away with the dialogue but Lilith was far too busy containing the urge to laugh at the sweet speedstar. "Sorry I'm late. I had some technical difficulties with my tux..." โ€œI see that.โ€ A light laugh escaped her and she quickly tapped her lips to hush herself. The amused grin she was poorly hiding behind a few fingers transformed into a warm one as she accepted the bouquet of lilies. "Uh, these are for you. They're lilies 'cause... uh... Lilith and I didn't know if I should do the corsage thing since this isn't a prom and I thought this would work and yeah..."
She brought it in closer to her. โ€œThank you, Jai.โ€ Lilith carefully picked one and tucked it behind her ear and a bit of her hair while the others were placed on a table.
She strode back to Jai quite coy in her next words. โ€œNow, may I help with the technical difficulties?โ€
It added certain endearment to him yet he'd be equally as handsome and still himself dressed properly. Her hands proceeded to his tie, nipping at her lip lightly as her fingers went through the motions of adjusting the length, the looping, crossovers, foldings then at last that final tug. She checked her work, making sure the bow was even then stepped away satisfied. โ€œPerfect. Once you tuck in the rest of your shirt.โ€ Lilith smiled proudly. She then headed to the elevators. It wasn't as if she could lose Jai or get very far.

Once on the floor of the dance her eyes wavered over him one more time. She thought about saying something but decided against it. Lilith led the way to their own space for now, smiling warmly to whomever she made eye contact with then stopped in the vacancy of the dance floor. She swayed slowly and beckoned Jai playfully with quirked up her brows asking her partner if he was going to join. If not, or it was too early that was fine. There were free spirited girls around that would join her and others she was most interested to try and persuade on the dance floor. Lilith refused to be pinned to the wall or bar all night.

ImageAstrid wanted to groan as Kain sat by her. She didnโ€™t think she had the energy but he wasโ€ฆhalf okay, tolerable, bearable in the blue moon it must have been. She sat herself up properly. โ€œKain,โ€ she greeted since he did nothing to provoke a bad attitude from her. โ€œI have no idea whatโ€™s on the playlist,โ€ she narrowed her eyes on him for a flicker of a second. โ€œIt could be anything. Knowing our peers it could really vary.โ€ Astrid crossed her arms over her chest staring at the vacant space in the dance.
โ€œWhereโ€™s your date?โ€ She wiggled a little uncomfortably, straightening her posture. Kain asking her just felt...off. โ€œI donโ€™t have one,โ€ she admitted. โ€œDonโ€™t feel bad, people just donโ€™t like a challenge nowadays.โ€ Astrid's brows knit together due to Kain missing a certain patronizing tone for the words he spoke. But there was also a fair chunk of ambiguity to them.
She second looked his arm then Julia who she smiled to up until her question. followed by making her own date. Astrid smiled a little. โ€œGuess that makes me the only dateless one then.โ€
Not long from then had Mathias joined them. "Even ladies and Kain, enjoying the party?" Astrid gave a so-so nod since their wasn't much aside from their attire and music parting it from any other night. โ€œSo far so smooth.โ€
An itch she couldn't scratch came to the forefront of her mind as Mathias inquired where Julia had got her drink. She argued with herself to leave Kainโ€™s arm in place since it wasnโ€™t touching her but it was slightly slipping under her skin. Like a little nerve that ticked. So in time she had to turn and brush it away and tell him with a look she wanted her space. Especially with the few looks she received. The last thing she wanted to look like was an object or possession of Kain's. Once that little matter was settled, she returned her gaze on Julia and her dear partner: 'Allie Cohol'. โ€œI'm more concerned with what's actually in it,โ€ Astrid chuckled. The sky seemed to be the limit with magic and she couldn't even imagine what drink Julia gave herself.

Slowly the room started to fill with more familiar faces: Kari, Elizabeth. And the dancing space had its first dancer. Lilith was one of the hunches but never really the top one. She would have picked Julia before Lilith. Alas, her classmates never failed to surprise her.

"Hey!" Kain twiddles his fingers to Miss Constantine who approached them. "...Am I the only one here without a date?" Kain turned to Astrid expectantly to begin the rapid protesting as Julia sat with them. It took a simple hand gesture for Julia to have a drink in her hand and he smirked. "I guess Allie Cohol, shall be my date." Magic was definitely cheating but at the same time, he had slight envy for it.
โ€œGuess that makes me the only dateless one then.โ€ Kain stuck up his hand then let his wrist drop. So he wasn't good enough of a fake date. "Obviously not the only one," Kain pointed out since Astrid had indirectly taken him down with her and Julia didn't have one.

Next to join the singles table was the Songbird. "Even ladies and Kain, enjoying the party?"
"Hey, Mathias," he said a special smile on display since Mathias chose to grace them with his presence over other people and tables. โ€œSo far so smooth,โ€ was Astrid's reply. "Yeah, it's still warming up." He would have thrown a wink his way if he had been in flirting range but he slid in a spot next to Julia. "Where the hell did you get that?" Was there ever a logical explanation? Kain was intrigued leaning forward towards Julia's response.
ImageHowever, Astrid turned and brushed his arm from her chair and Kain let it drop back by his side. He cocked his head innocently to her look, acting naรฏve for the moment. As soon as she dropped her gaze changing it towards Julia, his went to Mathias who was looking damn good and had the package deal working for him. He allowed himself to stare almost shameless before his eyes browsed elsewhere and he readjusted himself in his seat.
Of course he had half a mind to snake his arm around Astrid's chair again but he was feeling civil and behaved tonight. How dull of him. On the other hand it would be educational and experimental to exploit her limits. But maybe once everybody drank a bit more and had a better sense of humor.

Kain wanted a drink but Natchios was at the bar and while his presence could make her scowl and wander off, it could also result in attack instead. He sighed out gently. "You sharing rounds, Julia? Otherwise I gotta go up there and get us four a drink. Two for Golden boy." Since Kain believed he was still in drink debt to Mathias.

Matt trudged his way to the dance. His spirits were similar to that of an unsuccessful dwarf after a hard day of mining to be rewarded with nothing.
ImageOn the way he had a light bulb moment. He needed somebody else to put a little pep in his step so he didn't look so glum at the dance. He detoured to Anansi's penthouse. Matt didn't know if she had a date or was already there or wasn't going or what was her verdict of the dance since he hadn't spoken to her in...well, yeah, a few days. But what was the harm in knocking and trying for some contagious energy. He knocked thrice and waited.
It hadn't even been long - a couple seconds before he started to feel slightly uncomfortable waiting out the front like a lost yet hopeful puppy. That's what he most resembled. Consequently, it didn't take much to revert to his phone and fav app for comfort even though he knew it was a typical 'no no' at public functions or at the front of a girl's penthouse, friend or otherwise.
Matt leaned against the wall as he tapped away and deployed some troops. If Spider-Girl was already gone, it was still an excuse for further delay of showing up.

He revisited the lower levels and was persuaded to give the simulation another go. All to be a people pleaser and avoid being on lock down because of apparent lack of control. Expectations were pinned on him for minimal collateral damage. He was indeed expected to be super.
Image So he tried, playing defense this time as some giant hellish horned beast headed for the academy. The sooner he got it done, the sooner people would leave him alone about costly actions and the lectures that could go on and on. Caleb took off to meet it but it was granted its own abilities. Similar to his, hence being tossed back by a large beam. "Congratulations Mr. Kent, you just wiped out everyone in the cafeteria."
It was the same, again and again. Failure after failure and he got tired and irritable. Then at last his hell ended with a reminder of the dance. Caleb blew out his lips rubbing the back of his neck and super sped to his room where he just collapsed on the bed. How long had he been in that forsaken impossible to please world? Too long. Now he couldn't share a shred of enthusiasm towards the dance.
"What do you think you're doing mister?"
His eyes snapped open at the intrusion. "You have a dance to get to. And you're going because you need the social skills and it's going to be fun" Lois paced around his room setting up some formal attire for him.
"How'd you even get in?"
"Because I'm a journalist. Now, up, up." Fingers as light as rain droplets tapped his back. Lois walked away confident that he'd obey her prompts and Caleb did.
He got dressed at a zombie slow pace then walked out to show his mother. "Oh my goodness..." Here it went.
"Sweetheart, you look so handsome." She even stretched up to cup his cheeks. "You take after your dad so much. I just want a quick photo."
"Mom!" He argued. Surely it wasn't going to happen. But just as surely, her arm extended around his neck, encouraging him to shrink and bend at the knees so they could be cheek to cheek with cheesy smiles towards the camera.
Once that was done, Caleb rushed away before he could be conned into more. "Bye mom."

Lingering just outside the dance was Kumiko which was ten different kind of surprises. The fact that she was in attendance, that she was dressed up for the occasion and that she was outside the actual function room. Caleb opened the door for her and gestured her in. "You going in?" At first it was like a rhetorical question with a smile. Where else could she go or intend to go dressed how she was. However, it soon hit him that Kumiko was new or rather still learning the mechanics of large social gatherings and might've been catching her breath or something of sorts. Caleb's eyes flickered to the elevator, expecting to be stuck as doorman at this rate. "Come on," he encouraged warmly.

Kari glanced around the room No one seemed to have a date which was to be expected. Everyone had seemed to gather in one area which was weird. No one was dancing which was understandable due to no one having a date or it could be the music. Then she realized Kumiko wasn't there. She figured she'd gotten scared, she wasn't exactly used to these types of things and she was still getting used to 'their human ways' as she always put it.

She then caught sight of Julia, thank god. She made her way over with a smile on her face. "Hey, where's Theo? I though you guys were coming together?" She asked sitting in the closest available chair "I help Kumiko with her hair and makeup. She looks really cute."

She leaned against the wall just next to the door debating on whether to bail or to go in. If she bailed no one would even notice, she stayed in the background anyway but Kari would notice since she did help her with her hair and she helped pick out the outfit. God, the outfit was terribly uncomfortable. It was cute but uncomfortable Kumiko had learned a long time ago she was NOT a dress person but for things like this it was apparently the only thing acceptable. If she stayed who knows what would happen, maybe she'd even have fun..she wasn't even sure what that meant.

"You going in?" Kumiko looked up and saw Caleb. Stupidly she looked around as if he could be talking to someone else but they were the only two in the hallway at that moment. He held the door open for her "Come on," urged her probably realizing that she was uncomfortable. Finally she moved away from the wall and walked through the door and gave him a thankful smile not sure what to say.

Inside there wasn't much going on. Almost everyone was gathered talking and drinking. Barely anyone dancing and no one at the bar which was unusual in itself. Her peers seemed to like Alcohol.

This night was going to suck. She downed the first drink then poured herself another. The music wasn't much to her taste and it wasn't much to dance to. Hopefully that would change soon. There wasn't really anyone here who she'd talk to on a normal day let alone tonight. She sighed and glanced around the room. Her gaze fell on Kain for a few seconds. He didn't look to bad, he was dressed as simple as you could for something like this. He glanced in her direction and she turned her back towards him again. She waited but nothing happened. Normally he would make his presence to her known even if it was completely unnecessary but tonight he didn't. Probably didn't want to be bothered with her which she was glad for.

She should mingle. The thought kept lingering in her head. She was acting like Kumiko. She took her drink in her hand and made her way around the room. Walking aimlessly, wondering. Most of everyone there was in the vicinity of Kain, she could ignore him but if anyone knew her they'd know that was impossible. Even not intentional he was getting under her skin. 'Liz, your being silly. This is silly.' She pushed away her pride and walked over to the group "I guess no one has a date tonight?"

Nathaniel had been silent as he walked with Alex towards the dance. He was certainly more comfortable being vocal with her but he simple enjoyed just listening to her have the chance to ramble on about anything and everything she wanted when they were together. He found it humorous seeing the 'geeky' side of her that most didn't have the chance to see with her tough exterior. It was much like how everyone simply assumed Nathaniel was merely Junior's brute.

They eventually arrived at the dance much earlier than he had anticipated. Nathaniel did prefer punctuality but he assumed the unspoken rule of dances was to always arrive fashionably late. There was a small cluster of people already there though non Nathaniel particularly felt like engaging with. He instead decided to take the lead this time escorting Alex towards a punch bowl until the dancing began.

Jai couldn't help but grin from ear to ear when Lilith took the flowers and stuck one behind her ear. She looked absolutely breathe taking to him that Jai couldn't even find the words to describe it. โ€œNow, may I help with the technical difficulties?โ€ Jai quickly became flustered when she came over to him. "Uh, yeah. Sure... Go ahead." His face flushed as he watched her fix his tie and made him look more presentable. "Thank you." Lilith stepped away to examine him giving Jai the sudden need to begin posing for her. โ€œPerfect. Once you tuck in the rest of your shirt.โ€ Jai gave a nervous laugh as he started to tuck his shirt in properly. He looked back up to see that Lilith already left her room and was walking towards the elevator.

Of course Jai was right by her side in the elevator before the doors had the chance to close with a sudden breeze being the indicator of his presence. "I'm always chasing after you." He laughed again with his dopey grin. The doors opened and the pair walked into the room where the dance was being held and it seemed no one was ready to dance just yet... Except for Lilith. She began to sway her way to the dance floor and ask Jai to join her. His face lit up as he danced his way over with moves far less graceful than hers though he didn't care how ridiculous he looked dancing next to her. He jumped around and moved to the beat of his own drum with a bright childish expression plastered all over his face.

A hand had fell upon the back of Ichabod's arm followed by a charming voice he was familiar with. "Evening," He met Mathias's smile with a devilish looking smirk as he raised his glass and gave a nod in acknowledgement. "Evening." Ichabod took a moment to look over Mathias just as he decided to make a comment over Ichabod's own choice of outfit. "Most people put their worn out clothes on a Scarecrow, not their most dapper." Ichabod gave a soft chuckle before responding. "If this is your way of flirting... You could cerainly do better than that, Mathias." He took a sip of his drink. "And besides, I'm far more scarier dressed like this." He gave him a quick wink as he had a another sip of his drink.

Grace hadn't imagined the day following her arrival would be the day of a dance. Grace thanked her lucky stars that her mother gave her the dress prior to her leaving as if her mother knew what was coming that night. Grace simply placed her hair into a bun, she didn't really care if it looked messy or half down, she was more concerned with her makeup. Her lips were a nude peach, whilst her eyeshadow was a light blue, lightly applied so as not to look ridiculous, and her porcelain skin on show complimenting the light blue and pale peach. Grabbing a silver coloured clutch, Grace made for the dance, she knew absolutely no one there except the mutants, most of whom she would assume weren't going to attend.

Grace stepped into the hall, expecting it to be a bit louder than it was but so far it seemed quiet... It unsettled her for the most part, but she decided it would be best to ignore the feeling and went straight for the bar, using some of her gifts she manipulated some of the fellow classmates to stare at her, making their friends attention follow, boosting her ego slightly. At the bar, she noticed two of her soon to be classmates engaging in a conversation that would probably never interest her, so she took her drink and sipped on it, gazing into the crowd for a suitable male to allure and dance with.

Mathias chuckled at Ichabod querying the intentions behind his words, he flashed a smile at the baby scarecrow. "Trust me, you would know if I was trying to flirt." He then smirked. "It would be cringy and cheesy, to begin with." He then noted Ichabod's wink and his face revealed his curiosity behind the words prior. "Well maybe you should just wear a suit into battle then." He then addressed his curiosity, his quick wit not letting him ask that first. "So, how're you more scary in this outfit than your usual attire? Because you're so devilishly handsome or because you're more likely to lure some poor fool in?"

Junior frowned and quickly began to point out the other options for an entertaining evening, "Well, we have a genius, a meathead, a girl with serious daddy issues, a guy who can sing, a lunatic, a witch, the human vibrator, and some others I'm sure are entertaining and freaky like me. He finally breathed after the long slew of nicknames for whomever had already arrived at the dance. "I think that has the making's of a fun and hopefully dangerous party."

Enzo rolled his eyes, adjusting his suit jacket. "I do believe that a majority of those you so poorly named off aren't even worth a sideways glance."

Junior then grinned as his gaze shifted to the dance floor. "I'm feeling the sudden urge to dance. Care to join me?"

Enzo rolled his eyes as he watched his date moonwalk onto the dance floor. "We both know the only dancing I do... is not that." He nonchalantly walked over to an empty table, propping his cane against a chair. He then unbutton his blazer and flipped the sides back as he took a seat. Enzo was never one for gyrating or anything like that. His taste in dance was much more refined and elegant. Something Junior knew even if he never heeded it.

"Thanks....but...it's nothing compared to you...," Christian said in response to Wren's compliment. She watched as he picked at the boutonniere with his free hand. "...You look...so much more, better than me."

Wren wanted to argue and say that he looked great yet again, but instead she placed a soft kiss upon his cheek. "Thank you." She chuckled softly as her free hand released the train of her dress to gently pull his hand away from the boutonniere. "You'll ruin it if you keep messing with it."

When the elevator dinged indicating that they've reached their floor, Wren scooped up her train yet again with her free hand. After the doors opened she stepped out and headed down the hall still holding onto Christian's arm like it was her lifeline. Heels definitely weren't her style and the last thing she needed was to be walking around like a new born deer. It seemed the closer they were to the door the tighter she grasped his arm until they finally came to a halt before the entrance. The music and conversation could be heard from the other side.

Wren took a deep breath before whispering to Christian, "Well here we go." She no doubt knew that many eyes would be on them as they entered. The crazy girl with the mouth and the crazy shut in. A double dose of crazy redhead to stir the rumor pool.

J.A.R.V.I.S. without hesitation opened the doors for them. Wren lightly squeezed Christian's arm while smiling towards him before they entered the dance. She tried not to focus for too long on the others in the room but instead took in the decorations, the layout and then her date once again. Wren released the train of her dress, moving her free hand to gently grasp his upper arm as she leaned in to speak in his ear so he could hear her over the music and crowd. "Should we get a drink or dance?"

"Wow," was all that Freddie could say when she was ready to go.

Frankie nervously finger the beading of her dress. "What? It's not bad is it?" She glanced at the ground mumbling, "I knew I should have just stayed hidden in my room."

"Are you sure your father would approve of that dress?" Freddie's witty tone was back in no time as he smirked towards her and held the door open.

"Hilarious." Frankie rolled her eyes before she took one last deep breathe. Glancing herself over once more in a decorative mirror, she then finally headed out the door.

They started towards the dance, the entire time Frankie was contemplating turning around and just locking herself in her room. But what she had to keep telling herself was she wasn't here for herself but her friend who had to be here or he'd be suspended... or something. "At least with that on, you're guaranteed to break some hearts tonight."

Freddie's teasing brought her out of her own mind. Frankie laughed softly. "I've never been one for breaking hearts."

They reached the door, and what Frankie hadn't expected was Freddie's more serious tone. "That guy's an idiot... Show him what he's missing."

Frankie smiled slightly as she took his arm. She took one final deep breath before she let Freddie lead her into the dance. The first thing that caught her attention was the pair of redheads that had arrived just moments prior to their own arrival. Her gaze drifted to the table filled with a lot of her classmates. But as she continued to scan the room her gaze from on Nathaniel, her smile slowly fading as she cleared her throat and grasped Freddie's arm tighter. "How about some alcohol?"

Kain lit up and had new found respect for Julia the moment a drink was in reach and he lifted his glass towards her. Whether noticed or not, he didn't mind much since he got what he wanted but he remained half attuned to the conversations happening around him.

Mathias upped and left which he couldn't entirely blame, but it was still a pity. His eyes followed Mathias's trail to Ichabod. He was interrupted by a nudge to comment on Kumiko's appearance and at that moment he realized he should have evacuated the table sooner. Still, he looked towards her and offered a response, "Yeah, she looks lovely." His eyes washed over the room. "The men are looking handsome and the girls gorgeous." He also noticed a trade of sorts between Natchios and Mathias. How'd that work out? He looked up at her coldly before Astrid got his attention again.
ImageKain spoke her unofficial sign language, and he knew what she was implying but this time he outright refused. He didn't owe anything to Elizabeth, and she could sweep up the spot Mathias vacated. "You know it's not gonna happen right?" He reported to the captain's daughter. If she didn't want to sit three/four seats away, it was her problem in her heels. Kain was there first.
As it was however, he didn't plan to sit and gossip all day about who looked the hottest with a drink in his hand. That was always obvious, himself or Mathias for the males. Nor did he want to continue to be assumed dateless though he was sitting with a bunch of girls. Any one of them could have been his unlikely date.
Kain stood. "Anybody want to dance?" The offer was addressed openly and he left his palm open for acceptance. How else were they going to spend the night?

"Oh my goโ€ฆ" Matt couldnโ€™t believe his detour worked. Quickly he slid his phone into Imagehis pocket. "Hi." He had only come to realize then he was more relying on Anansi to already be at the dance. Likewise, he hadn't really appropriately taken the time to consider how it could all backfire on him like an unnecessary rejection until the scenario was right ahead of him. "You look nice, Headed to the dance too?"
Matt scratched behind his ear coming to observe her in her cast and mini scattered cuts then nodded, letting his curiosity go for the moment. "Thank you, though dress codes can have that effect." He nodded towards her and smiled. "You too." Which was more than just the automatic return compliment. She wore the look well and they weren't largely intrusive features.
She moved aside for him. "What brings you here?" Matt drifted through the threshold though remained near the door.
Thus commenced the dreaded explaining. "I was feeling a little bummed and I didnโ€™t fancy showing up to the dance in that mind frame so I figured I needed someone a little more sunny side up." Matt made a gesture to her which more or less translated to 'that's where you come in.' "Basically I was wondering if you would ho and ho off to the dance we go with me?" In proper English, and dweeby dwarf references aside, Matt was asking to walk in with her and hopefully her optimism and quirkiness would rub off on him.

Anansi was a great friend but he did not like the vulnerability of what he had wedged himself in. It would have been easier to just go alone. Luckily if things went south, he had a buffer conversation. If a telepath were around, they'd know how much Matt wanted to ask her it anyway. "So what got the jump on you? Unless it's a new accessory." Matt grinned with cheek. In another world, maybe he would have had more concern for his friend but since it was what it was: A world of heroes and villains in training, soon to graduate and go out in the world and get worse beatdowns, it was a more frequent and accepted occurrence. By no means ideal, but accepted.

Image Caleb hoped he didnโ€™t come off as bossy, but whatever the case Kumiko smiled and joined the event. He stared after her for a while but she would be fine and find her own way around the function and navigate what was expected of her. She had been doing it for a long time after all. He adjusted his tux and let her be.

Caleb moved over to the drinks unsure of his intention exactly. It wasn't like drinking had much effect on him and he wasn't particularly big on the company hovering around the alcohol. He wandered away from one of the popular posts of the night and found himself an isolated seat. It wasn't him being intentionally anti-social, he just wanted to get out of people's way.

She was glade that Kumiko finally joined the party, though she knew Kumiko would end up somewhere in a corner by herself as she always did. She'd thought of waving her over to the group but immediately decided against it, she would be even more uncomfortable than she already looked into that dress. Kari was going to let her be, for now, she would just watch her for awhile.

Not much was going on at the moment but she was she things would escalade soon, they always did. For now she just smiled and listened to the conversation around her.






Elizabeth didn't much like the nickname Mathias used since it was one given to her by Kain just to piss her off like everything else he did. "Thank you Mathias. That's really sweet." the compliment sort of surprised her since normally he and Kain were on the same page when it came to her, probably just by association. She glanced in Kumikos direction and gave a slight nod, she did look great but she also looked lost. You couldn't expect anything different from Kumiko. Soon after Mathias stood and offered his seat to her but she didn't take it and smiled in appreciation. Surprisingly Kain's presence didn't bother her as much as she thought it would, he didn't say anything at all to her which probably helped.

She glanced around the room after Julia's gaze and shrugged. "Probably will. Things always heat up when you have a room full of normal teenagers let alone a room full of hero's and villain's kids." She took a sip of the drink Julia concocted for her, it was a good drink and she sighed with delight. Maybe this wouldn't suck so much after all.




As soon as she walked in she felt eyes on her. She wasn't sure if it was just get being her or if people were actually looking. She glanced around the room and she was right. Kari was sitting with a group. She was surprised to see that Kain and Elizabeth were sitting so close together let alone within a 10 yard radius. Finally after a few minuted of standing in the middle of the doorway Kumiko moved further into the room. She expected Kari to invite her to Jon them but thankfully she didn't. She found herself sitting at the far end of a table occupied by Lilith and Grace. She didn't bother them and she just hoped they kind of ignored her.
