(Celestia seems to be gone right now, I’ll wait a few minutes, see if she gets here. I might have to leave later, so if she’s not back soon, I’ll probably go ahead and just RP Lore and Normal. I want to wait and see if Celestia has anything planned though, as she talked about possibly doing something with one of the brothers.)

“Uh, yeah, it would be pretty groovy,” Abbey responded a little shyly, brushing some hair behind her ear “though you’re right, I don’t really know how we’re going to figure it out. At the minute though, I’ve been reading around the subject trying to find any useful information that might help us in our investigation. Anthony has been collecting any information he finds and is trying to draw info out of his dad if he can.”
She smiled for a moment, seeing his excitement. It seemed like he was definitely wanting to be a part of this.
“It’d be ace to have you with us. We need a breakthrough big time if we’re going to figure out what’s going on in this city, and I think if a bigger group of us is investigating, it can only help us. So I suggest we go find Norman, people person or not.”
It seemed like their group was going to be getting bigger, with Steven and the possible addition of Norman. More people could cover more ground on their investigation, follow more leads. If they investigated faster, they might figure out what was happening before another person got taken. It might be too late to save Adam if it was a serial killer, but who knew? This could be the start of something.

He seemed a little behind on information, because he gave a very puzzled look.
"Adam? Adam is missing?"
He put his hand on his chin, looking as if he had gotten punched in the stomach. His eyes looking glazed over- he was hurt. He was clearly at some length friends with Adam at some point.
He kept his eyes on Abbey, which was odd considering his ties with Anthony- but he was more interested in what she had to say now because of the new information he had just learned.
He really had been living under a rock, either that or purposely ignoring the whole ordeal. He looked at her with pleading eyes, his mood seemed to change very quickly. Although he was pumped to involve himself in some !crime fighting! He didn't emotionally realize the impact it had.

Abbey realised very quickly that Steven obviously didn’t know about what had happened, or else was in denial about it. The news seemed to have hit the elder teen quite close to home, too. So Abbey bit her lip and gave him an apologetic look.
“Adam White? Yeah. Last seen September 2nd. I’m sorry, do you know him?” she said before adding “that’s harsh.”
She felt really bad for this kid, because she’d just dropped a bombshell on him but assuming that he knew about Adam being missing. But it seemed strange to her; if this boy knew Adam, why wouldn’t he know he had gone missing?
“But Anthony and I are trying to find out what has happened to him, what is happening to all of the missing people in this city. You’re totally welcome to join us if you like. As I was saying, the more the merrier. But, like, only if you want to. If it’s going to be hard for you with you knowing Adam...”

Percy was walking through the crowds when he saw the group of people he was looking for. Well, he had been looking for Norman and Steven, but he also knew the other two "Hey!" he called, waving at the group and making his way over. When he got there he could feel that the air was a bit heavy and wondered if he had come at a bad moment "You guys must be here to look into the disappearances to." it only made sense if Steven was talking to them.

As soon as the bell rang, declaring the school day to be officially over, Alita rushed to her locker and grabbed the books she'd need for that night. Once she had everything, she made her way to the front of the building, where she and Lorelei met up every day after school. Most days, they went straight home, but on (whatever day of the week this happens to be), they had a tradition of going to a mom-n-pop soda fountain located in Times Square. Of course, the fact that bodies kept showing up in that area did make Alita uncomfortable, but she wasn't going to break their tradition just yet. Seeing her sister walk up, she smiled. "Ready to get some ice cream?" She asked, before beginning their walk to their favorite place in New York.
(Ok so I'm thinking maybe they run into the kids from school on their way and get involved? And maybe Alita says no to investigating at first and then when they get home her little brother is missing so she comes back the next day and does the classic "I'm in"?)

"Ye-ah.." Steven stammered slightly with a weak smile, now looking between three people. He wasn't too sure what to make of the situation but he didn't want to bring the mood down. Deciding against saying something about Adam again, his attitude morphed like a light switch and he wore a big goofy grin as usual.
"Why don't we go into a cafe or something..? It's kind of cold."
He put out his hand, signaling the many building wrapped around them as a group. Suggesting they should go somewhere to sit down.
"So....um Anthony, Abbey. Percy. He was one of the people starting to investigate with Norman. I actually have no idea where Norman is, but since we all found eachother we're bound to find him. But uh.." he paused blowing into his hands for warmth.

Lorelei walked out of her last class, eyes blown wide and a scowl on her face. Why were people so annoying? Regardless, she walked to her locker, popping her unneeded things in, and smiled. Her unneeded thing, for today, that was everything! She was able to finish all her homework up in He last hour due to the teacher being gone. She smiled, no bag on her shoulders to burden her, and her laptop had stayed at home for the day. With no baggage, the girl strode to the door to meet Alita. She was at least smiling now, which was an improvement to her earlier mood. “Hello Alita!” She greeted, when she was within a few feet of her sister.
While the missing reports dampened her mood, reminded her of the past, they did not turn her off from tradition. “Yeah, so how was your day?” She asked, opening up the door for Alita, and then walking by her sisters side. Lorelei was short, at 5’0”, But it didn’t prevent her from acting like a big sister, even if she was on the short term of 17, having just turned so the prior week.
(I’m trying a new thing, I don’t know if I like it or not.)

"Oh, hi," Abbey greeted, offering her hand to Percy to shake "it's nice to meet you, Percy."
She was a little thrown off by Steven's sudden personality change and then by the sudden appearance of a new person. Abbey didn't do well around new people, due to her anxiety, but she was managing to hold it down. She was careful to keep her breathing even and stop it going shaky. In a moment she would be fine again, once they were in a comfortable conversation.
"Steven's right, a cafe or something would be sweet. Anyone know any good places we can go?" the girl asked, looking between the three boys "because I'm about to freeze to death, this jacket is doing nothing."
There, that should cover up any shaking or any signs of anxiety in that way. And then she'd have time to relax without the others ever realising she had started to get nervous.

Seeing her sister smiling, Alita was filled with warmth. She was glad Lorelei wasn't going to let recent events sour her mood. Nodding thanks as the older girl opened the door for her, she began to talk about her day. "It was pretty good! In chemistry we were doing a lab and a few of the guys in my class accidentally caused their beaker to explode so that was about as exciting as high school can get," She told her with a laugh. "And yours? You didn't forget your backpack, did you?" Alita asked, noting the fact that Lorelei was currently backpack-free.
Since their school was only a few blocks from Times Square, their walk was fairly short, although the constant flow of people did slow them down a little bit. Once they finally reached Times Square, Alita led the way as they navigated through the crowds, taking the lead since she was a little taller and could elbow through people a little easier. But hearing a loud noise, she turned around as she was walking and accidentally ran into someone. "Oof! I'm so sorry!" She exclaimed, grabbing the small redheaded boy she had just run into, who, for some reason, had binoculars around his neck and headphones on. "Oh! I think we go to the same school..." She noticed, before looking back at her sister for confirmation.
(Ok, I couldn't tell from the post if Norman was on the ground or not XD but I tried to incorporate him! Let me know if that didn't work with what he was doing at the moment)

(XD, this works. I was tired when I wrote his reply so he could’ve been anywhere. But the image of this boy sitting on the ground, causally spyong on people is great.) (Also, Wild, I’d roleplay with you, but I’ve only got Norman and he’s over here being weird)

Lorelei listened as they walked together, but laughed when she mentioned the boys with the lab. She agreed that it would have been a higlight of her day, too. “Nothing as eventful happened to me, my last hour teacher was gone today, so we got a study period. My homework is already done, so I just left my bag at school, in my locker,” she explained, smiling all the while.
When her sister ran into the boy, Lorelei raised an eyebrow. She did recognize him, and a smirk came to her lips. She didn’t recall his name, but nodded to Alita. “Hey, what exactly is your name?” Lorelei asked him, and held out a hand to help him stand, if he needed it, “And what exactly are you doing?” She questioned, gesturing to the binoculars.

Norman Walters
In all fairness, it probably wasn’t the wisest decision he had ever made to set up camp on the ground where anyone could come running into him, but he had thought he had chosen a good enough hiding spot that any awkward interactions should be avoided. Sadly, Norman was mistaken and after so long of spying on random people with his binoculars, someone bumped into him.
He shrugged it off, figuring they’d just ignore him after that, however that just wasn’t the case. He sighed, lowering his binoculars down to look up at the two girls. ”Norman Walters,” he introduced briefly. He could technically be rude and tell them to go away, but he was sitting on the ground in public, with binoculars and a backpack. This kind of made him look like the weird one out here.
He really didn’t need to prove how much of a weirdo he was.
Didn’t mean he was going to fill them in on what he was doing.
”Doesn’t matter, I was about to get up anyways,” Norman explained, flushing in embarrassment as he actually realized someone had found him just sitting on the ground with a pair of binoculars like a total weirdo. This was why people in his old high school thought he was crazy. This was exactly the reason why, Norman.
Clearing his throat, Norman pushed himself off the ground, dusting off his hands before reaching down for his backpack and shoving all of his stuff back inside it. ”You two must go to Stuyvesant high school too,” he deducted. ”I’m surprised you recognize me, I’ve only been there a couple of weeks,” Norman explained with a casual shrug.
He paused for a few seconds too long for the silence to be anything other than awkward. Finally, after the pause had gone on far too long, he pulled out the bag of chips and offered it to the two girls. ”...Chips?” He asked with an awkward smile as he looked at the two of them.
