Kim is standing in the garden, having pinned a sheet of paper with a bullseye on it to a tree. Now she's standing about ten yards away, staring at it with one eye closed. Then she raises her hand and makes a throwing motion that results in a purplish shard shooting out from somewhere around her hand and hitting the sheet of paper (but not the bullseye)

Haley seemingly popped out of nowhere next to Kim, admiring her display. "That's pretty cool. You almost got a bullseye," she lied politely.

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 8:41 pm**

"I know right!? Totes getting better." she boasts. Probably best not to imagine what her aiming skills used to be like.

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 10:13 pm**

"I like your hair too. Matches your power kinda. I'm Haley," she said cheerfully.

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 10:21 pm**

"I know, right? Got it done before they made it, like, a crime to show off your powers back home. But then how would they get it riiight?"

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 10:32 pm**

"Man, fuck that. England's okay and all, but i haven't had any good food since I been here. Least the school's kinda cool."

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 10:47 pm**

"Yeah, it's pretty math! The beach is total dirtballs though."

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 10:48 pm**

Haley looked...perplexed. "....What?"

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 10:54 pm**

"It sucks? It's, like, not even a real beach. All gunked up."

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:04 pm**

"Oh, totally. I never really think of England as a big beach place though," she said understanding the odd lingo a bit better now. "The Danger Room helps though. Plus you can make it so like, there's nothing but really hot guys on the beach with you," she giggled.

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:13 pm**

"Yeah, but they're totally not made to flirt with you. Like, they're too dumb to."

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:17 pm**

"I bet if we knew what we were doing we could make it happen. My boyfriend could probably make the scenario awesome...but I don't think he'd want me flirting with holograms he made more realistic," she giggled.

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:24 pm**

"Yeah good luck with that." she laughs. "Besides, that'd just be flippin' sad, teaching fake peeps to hit on you."

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:40 pm**

"That's why I'd rather just stare. The holograms don't care, you're on a beach that feels real and no fat, hairy old men ruining the view," she smirked.

"Where ya from?"

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:44 pm**

"I'm from Cali. Santa Monica. You?"

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:47 pm**

"Austin, Texas," she smiled proudly. "Everything's bigger in Texas....'cept me."

Posted: **Tue Mar 12, 2013 11:49 pm**

"Well yeah but you're what, like thirteen? Fourteen?"

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:45 am**

"I'm fifteen!" she protested a bit too much.

"Well. Just turned 15. It's my birthday today, actually."

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:48 am**

"Oh my gosh! Get outta here! Happy birthday!"

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:50 am**

"Thank you!" she beamed. "I think most of the school still doesn't like me very much so you're like the first to say anything."

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:53 am**

"Whaaaaat? That is jacked up! Maybe they just don't know. I didn't!"

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 1:02 am**

"My boyfriend is probably gonna try and surprise me. And you get a pass because I didn't know you until five minutes ago," she grinned.

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 9:20 am**

"Well I hope you have a great birthday anyway. Maybe you need to subtly let everyone know! Like, wear one of those sandwich signs and put "Oh gee I wonder what day is today?" on the front and "Oh yeah, it's totally my flipping birthday!" on the back!" she chuckles.

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:21 pm**

"I like your style of subtle," she smirked.

Posted: **Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:37 pm**

"Figured banging a pot with a metal spoon woulda been too much." she nods.

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 4:12 pm**

Haley laughed, "so do your powers make things go boom, or do you just throw small things?"

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 4:16 pm**

"Oh, neither, really. I can make things with my miiiind." she wriggles her fingers. "They called it psionic thinga-ma-bobs because they're more energy than an actual thing or something. All I know is it's, like, super-hard to make them not pass through everything."

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 4:18 pm**

"That's cool! What kinda stuff can you make?"

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 4:22 pm**

"Oh just simple stuff. Cubes and swords and stuff." she says, concentrating and creating a round sphere of purplish energy in front of her. Then proceeds to move her hand through it to show Haley what she meant with 'not an actual thing'. "See?"

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 5:39 pm**

"That's awesome! I wonder if I could touch them with my TK..."

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 5:43 pm**

"No idea! Maybe if I made it more real..." she says, staring intently at the sphere until it grows more solid and a little less translucent.

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 5:44 pm**

Haley narrowed her eyes in concentration, biting her lip, and tried to move the cube closer to her.

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 5:51 pm**

She can feel it to some degree and it moves slightly, but what mostly happens is that her telepathy kicks in and she hears Kim's thoughts.

"Come onnn... Stay solid! Don't embarrass yourself in front of a highschool-kid..."

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 7:44 pm**

"You don't have to be embar--" Haley froze mid sentence as she realized she was doing it again. "Fucking hell. Sorry...I don't mean to do that..." she said, shaking her head and rubbing her temples trying to think about her shields again.

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 7:49 pm**

"Oh! You heard that, huh? My bad."

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 8:02 pm**

"Yeah...it's kinda hard to turn off telepathy. I hate it."

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 8:07 pm**

"Ohhh! You mean you... I get it. It's not so bad! But mine's super-weak so it never really flipped out."

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 8:16 pm**

"I have days where all I hear is this like...static. It's just like...everyone around me and all their surface thoughts all at once. It's really distracting."

Posted: **Fri Mar 15, 2013 8:20 pm**

"Eesh. That totally sucks."
