Gwenn Tennyson (232) has posed:
Its been a long day. Gwenn was accepted to the Academy of tomorrow and after that, She went home and started packing up her things. This would normally take a while but She isn't exactly normal. Now, Back at the entrance of the Academy she's got an old camper full of stuff that she needs to move into her room. Whose camper is it? Well that would be her Grandpa's.

Quietly she moves out to the camper and begins gathering some things. The way she's carrying them isn't exactly normal. She's carrying them in magic. Not really lifting them by herself. Still it looks like it is taxing her. She even takes a seat on the back of the camper to catch her breath. "What a day."

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana was here at the Academy visiting a friend who was an employee here. She'd come in civilian clothes as well, with her black hair tied back into a braided ponytail that ran down her spine. She was wearing a white denim jacket with a red tshirt on beneath it that had a comic-book WW logo drawn in gold letters across her chest (She received countless boxes of these kinds of clothing and trinket items, sometimes she liked wearing them, it was fun and humbling to her). On her lower half she wore slim fit blue jeans and heeled black leather boots that stopped at just past her ankles. The heels made her even taller than she already was.

And lastly, a pair of large designer sunglasses rested over her blue eyes.

Diana walked through the parking area of the school and would eventually come across where Gwen was, she'd stop when she saw the display of magic and she'd smile at it. "Impressive." Diana said then to Gwen. "Joining the school?" She asked Gwen then in her thickly accented English that was entirely non-American in nature.

Captain America has posed:
     Falling from the sky: It's a bird, it's a plane, it's: Captain America who has just been knocked clear across the parking lot. For a long moment he just lays there in a bent over tree. Picking himself up by the bootstraps he stumbles back to a stand, managing to avoid breaking any bones.

     He takes in a deep breath trying to collect himself, before holding up a football high into the air, a quick pull back of his arm before he sends it spinning back with a great deal of speed to a student who manages to jump a good 15 feet into the air in order to catch it. Not exactly the most usual way to play football but it seems to be working.

     The way he's dressed, and the way he's holding himself certainly says he's here on business, but that business this time round happens to be a recruiting drive. A quick crick out of his neck is given before he walks over towards Gwenn and Wonder Woman.

Gwenn Tennyson (232) has posed:
Gwenn Tennyson looks at the woman and gives a smile a little. "Oh hey. Thanks. It beats trying to get people who I don't know to help me move things." She snickers a little. She adjusts her concentration and moves her magical control to her left hand. Then she extends her right hand to shake Diana's.

Then in comes Captain America. That catches her off guard and down goes her things. Thankfully, its nothing fragile but it all hits the ground. She winces and gives a sharp look to Cap. "Really? Cap? Are you alright?"

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana would shake Gwenn's offered hand with her right hand while her left would reach up to remove her sunglasees from over her eyes. She would smile at the young girl. "It is good practice, as well, I am sure of that. Should you need any help, just ask. I know that I look like the last person one might ask for help on Moving Day, but I assure you that I can lift more than I might first appear to..."

Diana's words would trail off then as the captain would make his energetic appearance. She-to recognized him, as one might easily considering his stature throughout the world.

Diana would nod to him, show him a friendly smile and glance from him back to Gwenn. "I did not know you were a facet here, Captain Rogers." She said to him, since he seemed dress for business today?

Captain America has posed:
     "Just didn't expect him to have quite the throwing arm!" Rogers offers with a smile, his bright blonde hair falling right back into place, as he calls back over. "Great throw Paul!" With a broad smile, quietly trying to hide the fact that still hurt like a mother.

     Turning back towards the two cap keeps that smile on his face as he walks over, wearing his full military uniform. It's not exactly what one would expect from him but stranger things have happened. With a bit of a deep breath he replies to Diana. "Oh, no, just filling in for a friend who was supposed to do a bit of a recruitment drive here." As he rolls out his shoulder slightly. On either of Captain America's shoulders there's his rank, except instead of what one would expect there's a colonels badge there in place, and the row upon row of medals on his chest. "Needed a bit of a break after the initial pitch, so I decided to throw a few passes to Paul over there." He pauses for a beat. "Good kid, hell of a throwing arm."

Gwenn Tennyson (232) has posed:
Gwenn Tennyson smiles to Cap and then Finally speaks up, "Well if you are offering. By the way, My name is Gwendolyn Tennyson. Or just Gwenn. I figured going to an ivy league school like The Academy of Tomorrow would be a good choice. "Quietly she begins gathering her things and then pink energy forms around her hands. Those items on the ground lift up the ground again.

She looks toward Cap and smiles a little. "So hows work? Everything going well? Any leads for alien trouble that might need sorted?" She asks hoping to pick up a little work for her team.

Wonder Woman has posed:
"It would seem so." Diana would say, her blue eyes going to look toward this 'Paul' who had thrown the ball. "I shall remember not to ask to join your game then." She showed a light grin.

She would look at Gwenn and listen to the girl ask for work regarding-- "Aliens?" Diana asked her. "That seems like a rather broadstroked topic to be concerned about, Miss Gwenn." Diana would look between the Captain and the girl once more, curious to know more about Gwenn here.

Captain America has posed:
     Paul is your typical college age jock type, who's got a slightly pale complexion, and a very musclebound appearance. He looks the kind who's trained every day to get in the shape he's in, and he's throwing to a much skinnier man now who catches the ball with a bit of magic.

     Cap rolls his shoulders one more time. "Tell you what Gwenn, I catch any next time I'm out on patrol you'll be right on the list of people that need to know." A friendly gesture as he gives a firm nod, placing his hands down to either side. "I don't know Diana, you might be pretty good." A light hearted laugh escaping his lips

Gwenn Tennyson (232) has posed:
Gwenn Tennyson smiles a little, "Thank you Captain. It will give my cousin and I something to do so we aren't annoying people. I'm sure you've heard by now about how Ben can get." She laughs a little.

Turning her attention back to Diana she gives a little smile. "Well ummm. I help out with one of the organizations. I'm only a consultant really. My cousin and I sorta fell into it when he found this piece of tech. Since then we've been working hard to help protect everyone from the more nasty ones."

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana showed a small grin to Cap's words about her being potentially good at it. "Maybe." She said in a quiet and playfully dismissive whisper. Her blue eyes would then go to Gwenn and she'd gently nod her head once upon hearing the younger one's explanation.

"Oh, I see." She said then. "Not to... make you feel poor, Gwenn, but that sounds like an awful lot for someone your age to bite into. Especially when your focus should be on your studies here at the Academy."

Diana would nod to that magically assisted maoving materials though. "I can see you have great power, however, but still.. I would very much hate for you to be harmed in a field as dangerous as deal with beings... not of this world." She knew all too well how troublesome that could get.

Captain America has posed:
     "Know it's not what you want to hear Gwenn, but she's not wrong." Cap comments, before nodding his head a bit. "Got a good thing going for you with this place, now after graduation?" He pauses a moment. "Whole world of opportunities opens right up for you."

     His own attention moving right back up to the sky for a bit. "Skies the limit with the right focus, patience and tenacity."Speaking with a calm authority that comes with the territory. "Just have to bide your time.."

Gwenn Tennyson (232) has posed:
Gwenn Tennyson sighs and shakes her head, "It's what I do though. Captain, How old were you when you chose to join the military?" She smiles a little, "HOw about you Diana. You're Wonder Woman! How old were you when you started learning to deal with things?" She smiles a little.

"I wanted to go to a more mentally stimulating school because I am too smart for a regular school. I've been helping out since I was 10. Do you really think I'm going to stop now?" She shrugs and carries the stuff into the school.

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana would look over to Captain Rogers and offer him a small nod of appreciation for assisting her with looking out for this young woman, but when Gwenn spoke on it further she'd look back to her.

"It is... very complicated where I come from. Though I do see what angle you are playing there." Diana showed a growing smile then. "Know this though, the challenges I faced that came from other planets... did not begin until I was in my third century of life." She showed Gween a grin then and lowered her voice to a near whisper. "I am senior citizen. I have come to terms with this."

Diana would shake her head side to side then. "I warn you though, there is no need to rush to grow up. Enjoy where you are now in your life. But." Diana would pause then and glance to Cap, then back to Gwenn. "I shall not harp on you any further. That would be very annoying of me, wouldn't it?" She then showed another soft smile.

Captain America has posed:
     Cap places his hands down inside of his pockets. "And back when I enlisted the choice was sign up or start speaking German." Standing rather proud unintentionally he adds in a rather patriotic tone of voice. "And back then there were a lot less of us, and a lot more of them."

     Pointed out with a bit of gesticulation for added benefit. "Now we've got a hero on every corner, and the last major war I can think of ended in Iraq." A firm nod of his head. "Thankfully there's a bit less of a time crunch these days on growing up."

Gwenn Tennyson (232) has posed:
Gwenn Tennyson returns from dropping off her things off in her dorm in time to hear the responses from both Diana and Cap. She nods. "I understand. No current wars and no I don't understand anything about life where you're from Diana. What I know is, I've been helping to protect the world for the past 6 years. Yeah its dangerous but I like doing it. I like helping people out."

She frowns and thinks a little. "I've been hurt, I've been beat up and more. Its always a risk. But A lot of times, I'd rather have a few bumps and bruises then letting some enemies go unchecked and wind up destroying chunks of the universe." She frowns. "I help because, I can. I know how to do things. I do know how to fight and stuff. I'm still learning more."

Wonder Woman has posed:
This was a very common theme these days in Diana Prince's existence in the world at large. Children, who were witnessing heroic deeds from powerful people across the globe... it was all so easy to see on the internet and television now that it was leading so many children to try to dive into the same thing, and end up hurt, and in some cases... dead.

Diana would glance back to Captain Rogers after hearing Gwenn's response and she would gently nod her head to the girl. "Please, reach out to me if you need assistance with a problem that appears to be of great threat. Do not take it on alone. Let me be there to work with you to tackle it as safely as possible."

Diana would pull a contact information card from the leather bag she had at her side. She'd offer it to Gwenn. "Let me help you in the future, okay?"

Captain America has posed:
     A quick pat down of his own pockets, and cap has out a card of his own. Of course it's the card he'd brought with him for any potential recruits to the Army, but it's good enough right? He's actually got quite a few of those cards at the ready just in case, because really it's what he's here for, get people signed on and ready to enter service when their college is finished.

     "And while I'm not always available, if I can I'll be more then happy to help out if the going get too crazy out there." A bright friendly smile of pure white teeth as he throws his own card into the mix. "If you're going to do it anyway, might as well have people who can help pull you out of the fire if the going gets deadly."

Gwenn Tennyson (232) has posed:
Gwenn Tennyson smiles and gathers a few more things. "The going always gets deadly. Its why I don't usually go alone. Usually I go with my cousin and my Boyfriend. Between the three of us we usally can manage. Ben can turn into a whole bunch of different aliens. My boyfriend can absorb any substance he touches. I've got more tricks up my sleeve than you'd think." She smiles a little bit.

As she gets another load in her magic she hops out of the RV. "I will call if I need help. I've been working with Ben for too long. I want to keep helping out because I know when I'm out there I'm helping to save lives. Thats the important thing right?"

Wonder Woman has posed:
Diana looked to Captain Rogers and offered him a smile to see that he was offering -his- help as well, that was endeering to her. "Now there is no reason for you to have to suffer through trouble without a wealth of experience." Diana said toward Gween. She listened to the girl explain of her cousin and boyfriend. "Its good to hear that they are there for you as well."

Diana would glance toward the school and then back to them both. "If you'll excuse me, I have to be inside to meet with Miss Frost." She'd nod to Gween. "Please call, if you need help... both of us." And she'd look to Cap then and offer her hand to him.

"It was great to see you, Captain Rogers. Please, stop by the Themysciran Consulate some time, we should be in a better communicative place, I believe."

And with that, Diana would turn to head for the Academy's front entryway.

Captain America has posed:
     "Any time Diana, i'll make sure to stop by there soon as I get the chance." A friendly smile given her direction, as he double checks his watch. "Great meeting you Gwen, but I've got a speech to give in the main hall in ten, need to make sure the word gets out to as many people as I can" Said with a firm but friendly voice, as he starts to head back off towards the main building in another direction.
