Guinevere allowed herself a laugh as well. "Ya, well, there used to be a bit more of a welcome when the old director was around. Ever since the new guy took place," She quieted her voice a little realizing his ears could be anywhere, "Things haven't been the same. I can answer whatever questions you have, or at least try to, and show you around if you ever need help." She said shrugging. That seemed to have become her job anyway. She nodded. "This is the library though. Its open most hours for everyone. Don't worry about intruding. I'm usually the only one in here anyway." Lucille took in the new girls introduction. "Lucille," She said. She noted that the girl hadn't been too keen on shaking Minnie's hand and held back her hand like she had earlier when she met the other two. It was moments before she finally spoke to Minnie, answering her question. "Mind control.." She hesitated. "You, Minnie? Aria? Roasalynn?" She went around the small group which now seemed much bigger than before. She realized she was now the head of all these students, newer than herself who had much more questions than she had answers for. "This place will keep you safe for all I know. The government doesn't know about it. We aren't prisoners...as far as I know, but we also aren't leaving any time soon. It's safer to stay here. If Xavier were here of course, he could probably explain things in more detail. I know he helped plan this with the old director though. In case anything happened. And, well, we are here. I just wish we knew more." "A new director? Sounds.... interesting. O mean, I have a lot of questions. Why are we here? Who brought us here? What the heck did we do to be kidnapped and placed here?" Caleb stared before giving a small laugh. "Lots more along those lines. Though I am surprised there aren't many other bookworms that hang out in here."

[ Hey everyone! Both my characters are frozen o: But you can jump in with any if you want- they are all in the safe house library! ]
Lucille looked over at Rosalynn. "There," She pointed. "That's Guinevere. She isn't a trainer, although there was talk that she might become one." She shrugged. "Anyway, she had been here the longest of us all. If you have questions, she is the one you want to talk to."
As if on cue, hearing her name, Guinevere narrowed her eyes at the new group of students headed by Lucille. She turned back to Caleb. "It looks like we've got company. I'm sure they have much of the same questions that you have as well." She said standing from the table she was seated at. She ignored his questions for now. "I think there is some explaining I should do...for everyone."

Natura | 17 | Female | Shapeshifting (limited to animals) | Darktalon She is a secretive and recluse person with a little amount of friends. Natura has always had stronger friendships with animals then humans. This is one of the reasons that you will rarely find her in human form. Her introvert nature means that she doesn't have any close friends and finds it hard to fit in with the different intimate social groups. She has no living family as they were all targeted and killed when she was a child. She has fair skin and pale blue eyes. Her hair is a soft hazel colour and wavy. She refuses to use chemical/unnatural products and never wears makeup. She is a strict vegetarian, but doesn't believe in veganism and says that it goes to far. Natura is slim and has angled features. She ways wears a long dress, although she never wears the same one twice and others wonder where she gets all the different articles of clothing from.

Hey dark!!! It's tufttail!! Fancy seeing you again c: Want to rp with any of my characters? I got four open. ps I love natura's name!)
Kell sat on the grass, it was a little cold for this activity, but hey, he' be damned if he ever let the weather tell him what to do (except when it rained. That would ruin his jacket.) He had his headphones in, an audio book of King Arthur's Legends was playing today. The narrator had an incredibly pleasant voice, an important trait for a voice actor, he supposed. Sitting on one of the slopes near his cabin, there was no one else around. Well, no one he could see. Which was everyone. He probably should've been training, should've been expanding his abilities, trying to 'see' with his mind like he'd been taught. But right now, all he wanted to do was hear the end of his story. Powers and psychic abilities would still exist at the end of this chapter, and so, they could wait. His cane rested across his lap, and he absentmindedly dug his fingers into the grass and the dirt where he sat, feeling the cool, firm earth beneath him, and the pulse of life it gave off.
Dripping with sweat and panting for drink, Bernadette Proctor stepped off of the work out machine in the gym and wiped an arm across her broad forehead. Her legs and arms were burning with such a satisfying fire it was enough for her to give a lupine grin when she took a huge swig of water. Most of it spilled out of her mouth and the huge girl licked her lips, tasting her own salt. It was pretty gross, and she stank, but Proctor was nothing if not serious about her fitness. She'd seen first hand the benefits of those extra hours in the gym, but from the sheer size of her, maybe she didn't quite need them as much as she used to anymore. No point getting soft, however. None at all. She wiped her face with the bottom of her shirt, feeling the ridge of her scar and the bump of her broken nose under the fabric, before heading to the shower rooms to get clean.
Why was there never anything on TV in the winter? It always had to be Christmas movies, or day time sitcoms, and Angel wasn't a fan of either. Home Alone 2 was on again. How many times could that kid be left alone? That was just shoddy parenting, frankly. Turning off the TV with a disgusted sigh, Angel tossed the remote control away from him and dug his phone out. At least on this thing he could find something to watch, even if he'd seen it a million times before. He was in his own room in his cabin, though that was about to change, because boredom is a powerful creature. Strong enough to make even some as stubborn as Angel venture into the fresh air. It didn't make him put away his phone, however. It'd have to try and bit harder then that. Walking out of the cabin and leaning against the front wall of the house, he pulled his blazer closer to him with one free arm, glaring at the cold air.
The cafe was cute, she'd give them that. When Neelam first came here, she hadn't been ecstatic about the aesthetic of this place, preferring pastels over concrete any day. But the cafe was quaint, and handy, and warm even in the depths of winter. So, that's where she was today, though she wasn't eating much. There was a glass of lemonade in front of her, as well as a glass of water with two paintbrushes sticking out of it, dying the water inside it a vibrant red. In her little notebook, she was splashing away with a third brush, her tongue out slightly in concentration. It was an exercise she'd done a million time before; paint something, but only use one colour. Today, she was painting the little thing of flowers on the table in front of her, and judging by the amount of paint on her hands and face, it wasn't faring easy. Not thinking of what she was doing, Neelam reached for her lemonade, grabbed the wrong glass, and only realised this half way through drinking the filthy water. Struggling to retain her dignity, she slwoly spat the water back out into the glass, gagging a little.

[ Alrightyy - Lily shall have a run in with Holland- maybe does she wanna be exploring in places she shouldn't be or something or he just catches her off guard?
They are with Guinevere now- not much and soon they will (; ]
Lucille walked towards Guinevere and Caleb. "Caleb, right?" She said as she neared. "We live in the same dorm," She added. She didn't want to sound creepy for knowing his name. "I'm Lucille and this is Rosalynn, Minnie and Aria." She motioned towards them. "Anyway, they have questions. I figured you knew more than I did." She eyed Guinevere as if pleading for her to take them all off of her chest.
Guinevere rolled her eyes a bit. From the few months that Lucille had come here, she came to think of her as a younger sister and this wasn't the first time that she threw the newbies at her. "I'll take care of it, Thanks Lucille." She said and then smiled. "Welcome everyone, I can see you found the Safe House properly. This is where your classes will take place." She said. "They will start up soon, not yet. There are a couple of days for you all to settle in and...get used to the place." She said. "I'm sure many of you are wondering when you will get a formal welcome as well. I can not answer that, but I will do my best to speak with Holland. Anyways, I can try and answer some questions, but we should head elsewhere for that."

Rosalynn nodddd along as Guinevere talked. It was mostly the same that Lucille had told them and nothing more. But, still, it was nice to meet a new face. "So, do classes start soon?" she asked, crossing her arms. "I managed high school for a total of... well, it was only half a year."

[ Either the library in the safe house that is forbidden, or maybe she could just be wandering halls and snooping around in offices or something? Beneath the safe house too there is a basement where wayland is hidden and so maybe she could be heading in the direction of the basement too? It's hidden in the safe house but like who knows xD gotta be extra cautious lol ]
Lucille nodded. "Ya, they start next week." She said. "They aren't exactly the same as regular education but we still get our basic classes. I never made it to high school." She continued. "I mean, I'm too young anyway but I was never really in one place for long." She sighed. "It's nice though. Learning all this and being here, for that at least." She paused. "Do you wish you had been able to complete it? I mean, did you enjoy it?" She asked. She had no idea what the girls life was like before she got here and she didn't want to pry but she was curious none the less.

(okay >: 3 I shall send he toward the basement ) Lily was doing her usual thing, humming and skipping down an empty hall way. The red haired girl was usually alone and she liked it that way. She couldn't hurt anyone or be bothered by anything when she was alone. This made things easier to control. It was only when something set off the trigger in her mind that she really got violent. At least that is what the therapist had said. But Lily knew a lot of the time when she was being violent. It was just a matter of how upset she got. There were times were she blanked out and times where she knew exactly what she was doing. But today, was a good day. The hall she was walking down was one of the lower ones. No one was down here and from what she could tell not many people where ever down here. Shrugging she continued to hum and wander around. Lilith was a child at heart and curiosity was her major fault, it got her in more trouble than anything. Curiosity is what got her put in jail for a night before her mother bailed her out. This of course had been a set up for the poor girl, her life of actually doing bad things didn't start till her mother was hospitalized. That was also when she legally changed her name this way her mother wouldn't have to suffer if she ever woke up from what Lily like to think of as a really long nap; it made things easier to deal with.

Cautiously, Natura crept outside, still in the form of a small hare. She scampered around a large patch of long grass and hopped onto a low down bench that looked old and uncared for. Nose still twitching, Natura surveyed the area, hoping that she wouldn't see anyone around. Obviously she saw a few stragglers, but they were all moving and not close to her. Natura felt a lot less self conscious when there were no humans around, but that didn't stop her from thoroughly looking again around the grounds. After what seemed like a very long time to be looking out for Sanger, Natura transformed back into her human form and smoothed out her ruffled dress, making sure it came down to just above her knees. Abruptly, she sneezed and remembered how exposed human skin was in this weather, it didn't matter now however, Natura never remembered the fragility of humans and that was because she never really needed to. Sighing, she wrapped her arms around her and pulled her knees up to her chest, resting her bare feet on the cold bench beneath her.

Rosalynn nodded. It sounded just like her. "I made it to high school because I was old enough, but it only lasted half a year, like I said. I... I never went to school before that, unless you count primary school. I dropped out when I was 12..." She looked down at her hands and fiddled with her fingers. She wondered how her parents were. She left them without so much a clue as to where she was going or why. It had been... what, 7 years since she'd seen them? She let out a sigh. "I don't really miss it, though. School, I mean. My- I was homeschooled for a bit after I dropped out. High school seemed cool, but I couldn't handle it. I'd been away from the world for so long, and I still didn't know how to control my powers."

you too! How you been?? Was Christmas good to you?)
Kell couldn't help the involuntary way his head moved. It had happened since he was very young, his powers reacting to something before his mind did. He paused his book and popped the headphones out of his ears, his head had titled on it's side, his dark glasses facing left, "Is someone there?" He asked, really hoping that there actually was someone, and he wasn't just talking to some grass. He couldn't sworn he felt something, a new pulse of life that hadn't been there a few moments ago. Or rather, it had been there, and it had changed. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but one second he was the only human around and the next, there was another mind near him. He hadn't heard anyone walk over, and he hadn't felt the grass part around someone as they moved. How odd. But, then again, this was an odd island. "Hello?" He shifted where he sat, turning his body towards where he assumed a person was, changing the grip he had on his walking cane. It was a little cold, for anyone else to be out and about, but some of the kids here were real weirdos, they didn't seem to mind the weather at all. When he heard a sneeze, he jumped a little, but that only confirmed that he wasn't going crazy, at least. "It's sort of chilly today, isn't it?" Remembering what his training had taught him, he tried to focus on the mind, to see what he could decipher. Female? Probably. Young. Shy? He always found girls' minds harder to read.

(Christmas was crazy, in a good way, a long happened. I've been great thanks. How have you been? What was your Christmas like? X)
Natura jumped as soon as she heard the voice say "'hello'" at first she was confused and dar'nt look up, but when she was asked about the weather her voice just seemed to activate and she delved into the new conversation "umm..." She began warily "I guess it's a bit cold... I didn't really notice at first I -" she cut herself short and brushed her dress uncomfortably, still refusing to look up. She shook her head after noticing a ruffle in her dress and set about un-creasing it. She couldn't tell where the voice was coming from, but it sounded close and she didn't want to look up to see someone no far away. "What are you doing out here?" Suddenly puzzled, Natura wondered why she hadn't seen the person that the voice belonged to when she had first arrived, but that didn't matter at this point in time. Natura came out in the cold to avoid others, with was why she was wondering why someone else would want to be out in the cold also... She didn't think it was for the same reasons, but why not ask?

Holland was down in the basement, checking in on Wayland. Though he hated the man, he knew he couldn't leave him to rot and he didn't have the decency to kill hi straight away. He instead visited him at least once a day and would give him food to last him until the next. He finished and was closing the door to the basement. He had to be careful. Though these halls were generally quiet, stragglers sometimes wandered in, especially newbies, and this week he was certain to catch a few. He rolled his eyes. He hated those kids. Sure, he was like them, but he didn't want to be 'like them." He had to pretend of course though, that he was. He had to pretend to like them but most of the time, he stayed away from them so he wouldn't have to. It was easier that way anyways. He hadn't wanted to come here but the government needed someone with mutant genes like himself and he had been the perfect candidate. He had gotten rid of Wayland without anyone's noticing, claiming he had gone away, lord knows where and taken over the spot of director...temporarily. It wouldn't be long before the rest of the plan followed through.
He followed the small hallway that led from the basement door and came to a dead end, where there was another door. He listened on the other side as precaution and then, walked through, closing it swiftly behind him. In the place of the door, was simply a wall. It was hidden from the outside. He glanced both ways before proceeding to move down the empty halls, when he froze. He stopped moving and listened. He could hear humming. He wasn't alone. What if someone had seen him? He forced not to freak out. That would only make things more obvious if someone had been watching. But he wouldn't know. These mutants had all sorts of powers. Sure they were all documented, but he didn't know everything they could all do. He would, if he spent more time with them, but he couldn't change his ways now and besides, the further from the 'children' the better.
He continued to listen and the humming continued but he couldn't see the owner yet although it moved closer. "Hello?" He finally decided to call out. "Anyone there?"
--
"Oh..." Lucille said after a brief moment of silence after Rosalynn spoke. She tried to take in all of the girls words and it seemed like there was something she wasn't telling her but she didn't press. Her life didn't seem any better than Lucille's did. It seemed a lot of them here had stories just as similar. They never did seem to fit in where they had been. She began to suddenly wonder if maybe this was a better place after all? Maybe, she decided. "It's not easy fitting in." She continued. "But...I'm sure here you will. It seems like everyone is a bit more accepting. And it's nice to know others are like you.." She trailed.

Christmas was a little sad, we had a loss in the family. I wasn't too bad, but there was a somber mood hanging around one half of the houses we visited, yknow? But after christmas I went to Norway for a while and had a ball!! great fun)
"Enjoying the view." he couldn't help making a blind joke, he really couldn't. When life presents you with certain opportunities, you just have to grab them. Kell couldn't keep the humor out of his voice, and he shifted where he sat, suddenly aware of how stiff and cold his legs were. "You're very quiet." He said, head tilting again, "I didn't hear you coming, and normally, I'm quite perspective." Was it bragging if it was true? Did he care? Nah. "And I can't say I recognize your voice. How come I've never heard you around?" He liked to think of himself as a rather sociable young man, mingling in unseen crowds, the dispenser of jokes. This voice, however, was brand new, and that was strange. Small island after all, you got to know people.
sorry for short post, gotta fly!)
