 - - - - - - - - - - - It was lunch time and was filled with the usual chatter among students. Harlow grabbed her tray and took a sit in the back of the cafeteria. She slips her bag of her shoulder leaving it by her seat. Harlow eyed the food on her tray with distain. She didn’t know if she was willing risk her life. It would be tragic to die at such a young age. She knew she was being dramatic but, this wouldn’t be the first time. She grabbed the spoon ready to take a bite until she decides against it.
Harlow bit her bottom lip softly as she tapped her fingers against the table. ‘hmmm.. I guess it couldn't hurt . This is Power's Academy they are suppose to encourage us to use our power, right?' She glances to see if anyone was watching before a sub appeared in her hands. It looked exactly like the one from the subway commercial. A foot long with the works. Harlow took bite and hummed. ‘It tastes just as amazing as it looked on TV.’ One of the benefits of her power Harlow never had to worry about her next meal.
However, her power did have it draw backs. She could feel her jaw begin to tighten as she thought about that mommy dearest. To say her relationship her mother was shaking was a total understatement. Oh how she despised that cold woman. It was because of her that she was sent here in the first place. She was on a first plane the minute her mother received a call from Power's Academy. She was still curious on how they found about her powers. Suddenly, tapping on her shoulder brought Harlow from her thoughts. She jumped at the sudden touch and grabbed the hand.

Oh, the cafeteria. Where people constantly complained about the food. It was kind of meh, but in all honesty it wasn't that bad! Obviously nobody had tasted her dad's cooking. Now that was torture food. Plus, if you were hungry enough, you could eat just about anything. Not that Illi was hungry. Her lunch was two apples. Not one, no, that wouldn't do on its own. She had two! Now, the biggest problem was where she was going to sit. Not how hungry she was. In all honestly, she could even do without the apples. But she liked apples. They were good for you, too. She was just glad they sold apples like they did. It was either that or suffer through school food. So, lunches here weren't that bad at all! Especially and mostly when they had apples for sale. Nice, big, red ones, too. Perfect! Illi held her two apples in one hand and a water bottle in the other. She now had to do that little awkward thing where she looked around for somewhere to sit. Nobody really stood out to her.
Except that chick with the sub. What? How did she get that? Maybe someone snuck it in for her. She totally had secret contacts. Secret agent secret contacts who delivered her food and things while she was away from her job as a secret agent herself. Woah. Illi just stumbled upon a ninja. Now that was cool. And even cooler past that, she was sitting by herself! Awesome! Wait, wait, wait... Something about her struck Illi. Now, what could it be. It wasn't the clothes, they were normal enough. The hair? Nah, but she did have nice hair. What could it... Oh! Right! This girl was Illi's roomie! Illi immediately walked over. This would be all sorts of bad if she really wasn't her roommate. After all, Illi was going to tap her on the shoulder to get her attention. And if this girl really was just some random girl? Oh man, that would be bad... Really bad. She just had to take the chance. Now or never. Meet her ninja roommate or have the most awkward encounter in her life. Here she goes...
Illi went to tap her shoulder. She did. Once, twice. BAM. Illi's hand was hers. The girl had jumped and grabbed Illi's hand, almost breaking her darn fingers. Ow! "Hey, hey! Stop? It's just your roomie!" Geez, this was a nice welcome. Hi, welcome to the school, it's really cool that I'm your roommate and all, but hey, what about broken fingers? Are you into that sort of stuff? Obviously not but to be honest Illi did walk up to her and kind of scare her in a way. Probably. Illi definitely should have at least said something first. This day was going to be weird. If not weird, then interesting. And if not interesting, then boring, because that's what it was so far. Or, actually, it could be fun! It just depended on what her roommate was like. Oh, Illi hoped she was fun. She couldn't live with boring, uninteresting people. That would be just awful for her. She could never survive! |

- - - - - - - - - - - occ: sorry for late post won't happen again Harlow grasped strengthen in surprise, on whoever hand that tapped her should. However, she loosens her gripped when she the girl told her to stop. “ Ohh I’m so sorry I guess I’m little jumpy.” she apologized. She dropped the girl hand. Then she placed her sub on the plate. Harlow twisted in her to seat so she able to get a better look of the girl. She stared at the brown-haired girl in front of her. The look of confusion quickly turned into a genuine smile when the girl in introduced herself as Harlow’s roommate.
Harlow was quiet for a moment “Hi, I’m Harlow Weston and I guess I’m you’re my new roommate.” The girl said cautiously. Harlow debated with herself for all of two seconds before she patted to seat next to her for roommate. She wasn’t sure how to handle this stranger. It seems that they had already started off on the wrong foot. The last thing she needed was any trouble of any form, which always seems to find her.
“Sorry,” she repeated, she frowned and glanced at her sub before an idea popped into her head. Looking up again and smiling. “are you hungry?” Harlow asks tucking a section of her hair back behind her ear. Wow, could I sound more like an air head. She sighed, of course if the girl here in the cafeteria was on account she was hungry. “I mean, would you like something more appetizing?” She wasn’t afraid to show her power. Harlow didn’t perceive it, like her mother. She saw it as gift, something to be proud of. She was one of kind.

(OOC: Aww, don't worry about it~! :3)
At first, this girl seemed to grip even tighter. Illi thought of it as a boa constrictor. Or a python. Whichever snake had the grip. Still, what was the way to get out of something like that? She thought that maybe you were supposed to relax, or tickle it under its chin or something. Yeah, she wasn’t about to tickle her roomie, who she didn’t even know. Honestly, that would just start her off on the wrong foot and that’s not a good way to start off a relationship! It would just be weird! So, she concluded that she wasn’t going to and Illi didn’t. For once, a plan works out! But now she had the struggle of this plan. She was just going to meet her roomie, that’s it! Not murder her or something. Illi didn’t like violence, she couldn’t even look at her own blood! Her own blood, that was. Not other peoples’. She was fine with seeing the blood of others. But herself? She would freak out.
And then she let go. Illi was happy to restore the blood flow and once she apologized Illi sat down. She felt as if she was welcome enough, so why not? She liked people. And she would probably like her roommate! Illi could just imagine what’s going through her head. She probably freaked out herself and now she’d probably beat herself up about it. Well, not this time! Illi made sure to act like it never happened, aside from flexing her fingers a bit at first. Illi still wondered where she got the darn sub. It looked good. She could totally go for a nice salad now. Illi liked salad. Was she weird for that? No, probably not. Illi liked to eat healthy. Even moreso when it actually tasted delicious. Illi loved croutons. Like, a lot. She would eat them like chips if that wasn’t weird. But, sadly, it was. Darn society!
”I’m Illi! Your name is really pretty,” she said with a little grin, beginning to sway back and forth a bit. It was a habit of hers, is just made her feel a bit better. The swaying wasn’t intense, it was just a little rocking motion. Not weird at all. Well, once you got used to it. It was probably a bit weird at first for Harlow, but she’d get used to it. After all, they would be living together, so she’d have time! And then, Harlow asked... If Illi was hungry? She cocked her head a bit. Well, yeah! She had had apples and Illi did like apples, and thinking of that salad kind of did make her hungry. And the sub looked nice, too. Illi didn’t quite get the point Harlow was probably trying to get across. Yeah, Illi was hungry. And...?
Then it clicked. They were at Power’s Academy. Where kids with powers go. And her power must have something to do with food! Of course! Like... Maybe she could just kinda pull food out of midair. Or she could take already existing food and turn it into something else! Suddenly, Illi’s apples seemed a lot more appetizing. They could be anything else. In the entire universe. And suddenly, Illi was thinking Chinese food. Illi loved Chinese food even more than salad. Some vegetable lo mein? Oh gosh, Illi was suddenly really hungry.
”Yeah, I would! What can you do? Pull food from thin air or something? ‘Cuz that would be really cool and end world hunger and that kind of stuff.” She grinned widely. Illi was definitely going to like her new roomie. Especially if she could legit pull food from the air. And it really could end world hunger! That would just be great of her. And Illi totally gave her the idea so Illi should totally share in the Nobel Peace Prize receiving part. Illi thought it would be just wonderful to get a Nobel Peace Prize! Only really smart and important people received those. And if Illi got one, she could spread her message of worldwide happiness to everyone! Yay! |
