Power Control 100 - First class!

The site of the recently restored Braddock Lighthouse. Aircraft hangars and other X-Men facilities, including a Cerebra unit and the Danger Room have been constructed around the foundations of the lighthouse.

Power Control 100 - First class!

Postby Ryan Gabriel » Fri Aug 31, 2012 11:11 pm

The Power Control class was, appropriately, meeting in the Danger Room. Ryan showed up early, configuring the room's safeties to their proper levels and setting up the students' individual access permissions. While he did that in the observation booth, the sign on the Danger Room door instructed the students to head into the room, which at the moment had a pleasant meadow scene in it, a ring of tree stumps programmed in to serve as chairs for the students once the class began.

Cal walked in, looking around the Danger Room.

Code: Select all
>>Multispectral scan initiated.
>>Surroundings composed of hard-holographic illusions.
>>Mark off true confines of the room as secondary display data?

No. Just... just leave it, he thought, wandering into the 'field'.

Haley showed up in a pair of black athletic shorts and a gray shirt with a large Xavier's logo on the front.

"Oh neat! I never got to see this stuff in the last danger room. Just boring obstacles. I didn't know it could be THIS cool." she announce to no one in particular.

Cal glanced back at the door, took a moment to not-quite-obviously check Haley out, then sat down under a tree a little ways off from the circle of stumps.

"Oh hey, this is cool," Alex said, looking around as he walked into the room, also dressed like he was ready for gym class.

Haley practically made a beeline for Cal, and sat right next to him...she smelled really good too.

"Hiya!"

Aisha was heading in as well. Or, at least it was probably Aisha. Unless a pair of sweat pants and a XI sweatshirt had learned to walk on their own. Unless you were Cal, in which case, you just saw Aisha walking into the room.

Cal jumped where he sat, shoving what he was working on back into his backpack. Unlike everyone else, he wasn't dressed for gym, or anything else active, and in truth he'd tried to get out of this.

And now, there was a girl sitting next to him. "Oh! H-hi!"

Jason, also dressed in gym clothes, entered the Danger Room.

"Duuuuuude..." he said with wide-eyed wonder as he gazed about.

Dana entered, dressed in her workout clothes and carrying a makeshift utility belt over her shoulder.

Seeing the peaceful scene around them, Dana tilted her head for a moment. Then she clasped the utility belt around her waist.

"What do you think got me like this anyway," he said, giving his mechanical hand a wave (probably the first time he hadn't made an effort to hide it). "Fucking around with my power. So no, not really stoked here."

"Oh..." she said, really starting to get that he wasn't fond of who he was.

"Sorry...guess I never really knew," she said quietly. "Well maybe like...you'll learn how to make that not happen again..I know I really want to learn to control myself. Right now if I have bad dreams, there's good chances that I'll break most of my room."

"Well.. I didn't test out," he replied, a little sadly.

"Still not super good with the metal thing, I guess."

"Yeah, I guess," Cal said noncommitally, more to stop the conversation than anything. That's what I have software for now, apparently.

"And that's a good attitude to take," Ryan said as he came into the Danger Room. "Got a few stragglers that haven't shown up yet. They'll just have to catch up. Everyone in the circle and we'll get this party started."
