Owner Pose
Negasonic Ellie is lounging on one of the bean bags, one hand held infront of her face, as she taps rapidly on her smartphone. Not an unusual pose to find her in, outside of class. That is, when she does attend them in the first place, she's kinda bad about it.
Cindy Larsen     Cindy's just finishing up with her classes for the day, herself, and she comes wandering into the rec room. She glances around a bit, but her focus, at the moment, is on her phone as well. A couple quick taps and she slips it into the pocket of her hoodie. Noticing Ellie, she offers the girl a somewhat bashful smile, as the leopardine girl makes her way over to the bar to get herself a snack. "Um, heya," she greets her, a little awkwardly.
Negasonic Ellie doesn't even look up from her phone when Cindy joins her in the rec room, but when Cindy tries to speak, Ellie peeks up from around her phone, and looks at Cindy quietly. Studying her apparently, before offering the most unenthused, "hi."
Cindy Larsen     Cindy probably should have expected as much from Ellie, considering that the girl -does- have a bit of a reputation. Cindy pauses a moment, glancing Ellie's way again, biting her lip as she thinks a moment. "You want anything?" she asks, pointing at the bar. She gets a small package of cookies for herself, and a bottle of water. If Ellie doesn't want anything, Cindy walks over to flop down in a beanbag chair, herself.
Negasonic "If I wanted something, I would have taken it already," Ellie mutters with a bit of an annoyed sigh, before returning her focus to her phone. "So...cat girl, huh?" Ellie remarks, "you on Dorkmeister's team?" Yeah, she just loves Scott Summers oh so much.
Cindy Larsen     Cindy rolls her eyes. "Just thought I'd ask," she says, "I'll remember not to next time." Her tail gives a small twitch, before it curls in closer to her legs. "...Dorkmeister?" she inquires, though she could probably guess that Ellie means Scott. "I, uh, I'm not on anybody's team," she admits, pausing to take a drink from the water bottle, "I, uh. I mean, I've got claws n' stuff, but that's only gonna get me so far compared to people who can turn into metal and fly n' junk."
Negasonic "Don't care," Ellie notes as Cindy makes sure she knows she will not ask her next time. "Yeah, Lameo Supreme, you know," Ellie offers Cindy another clue in case 'Dorkmeister' wasn't good enough for her. "Claws cut stuff, no? Sounds good enough for me...I mean, team called fucking 'faXion' pretty sure the bar is set real low." Yeah, Ellie wasn't about to tell Cindy that having claws is awesome, but it's not the worst either. After all, some are stuck with the special ability of looking like a fart.
Cindy Larsen     Cindy gives Ellie a small grin - she's got some wicked sharp teeth, too, it would seem. "Maybe I just don't like goin' for the low bar," she says, "I mean, there's cooler teams out there to join, aren't there?" Her tail twitches again, the appendage flitting about ocacsionally, as if it had a mind of its own. Cindy pops a cookie into her mouth. "I guess I did fuck up that mutant-hater pretty bad the other day," she muses, more to herself than to Ellie, with a mouthful of cookie.
Negasonic "Bet you're not a vegetarian, huh?" Ellie asks as she catches a glimpse of Cindy's teeth, "that should be good enough to scare some people." Ellie snorts when Cindy mentions cooler teams, and then eventually lowers the phone for two minutes, as she looks at Cindy with exasperation, "okay, spill the beans, what did the fucker do to you? And just how did you fuck him up for it?"
Cindy Larsen     Another cookie disappears into Cindy's maw, and she shakes her head. "No way," she says, "Steak and barbeque ribs all day long, if I can help it." She giggles - yes, bubbly, girly giggles. "He and a bunch of his buddies chased me into an alley. I'm pretty sure they were gonna kill me, they had guns n' shit. I got some help taking out the lot of them, but the guy who was in charge got some free work done on his face." She lifts a hand, flexing it to extend her claws(they actually look pretty damn dangerous), and pulls it down the side of her face. "Got him from his greasy forehead almost to his neck. Bet he's gonna be wearin' an eyepatch if I see him again, too."
Negasonic "Called it," Ellie just makes it clear she knows what's up. Then come the giggles, and Ellie just rolls her eyes, "what's your name again? Barbie?" She looks at Cindy as she relates her story, blinking a few time throughout, before eventually holding up her hand, "wait, hold up, see...problem here is, you're telling me something that should be badass, but you're making it sound cute. Maybe you should join the 'faXion' crew."
Kaydin     Kaydin actually comes into the rec room at a normal speed. Slow compared to him but he was busy reading a book as he moves into the rec room and turns a few pages. His phone rings and he goes to check it for texts and smiles. "Alright, got another spot." He says as he pockets the phone and looks up to the people present. "Hey." He says as he turns to Cindy.
Cindy Larsen     Cindy settles back in the beanbag chair again, and grins at Ellie. "Aww, you think I'm ~cute~," she teases, before eating another cookie. Another giggle, another drink of water. "My name is Cindy, though, not Barbie. I don't think I've got the legs to be a Barbie." She lifts one of her legs to inspect it, then shrugs. "I can't help it that I am the way I am," she tells Ellie. Kaydin's coming in, then, and she lifts a hand to wiggle her fingers in a wave. "Hiya," she greets him.
Negasonic "Oh my god! He can try to not be a douche!" Ellie cuts into Cindy's words as she sees Kaydin walks in at relative normal pace, and even takes a moment to applaud. "Congratulations, we're all happy for you," Ellie adds before turning back to Cindy, "you were saying? Cindy, huh? Was sure it was Barbie, weird."
Kaydin     "Your just jealous because my powers dont make anything explode." Kaydin says to Ellie as he moves to the bar, pouring himself a soda. "Name's Kaydin." He says to Cindy and he gestures to the bar. "Want anything?" He asks curiously.
Cindy Larsen     Cindy grins, her tail giving a small flick near it's tip. "Whatever, I'm still telling people you said I was cute," the leopard-girl says. She looks up at Kaydin, taking another drink of water as she looks him over. "Nice to meet you," she says. She holds up the bag of cookies and water she already has. "Don't bother asking her," she says, jerking a thumb in Ellie's direction, "I already made that mistake." She leans her head to the side, looking at Ellie now. "So what's your name? I'm gonna guess 'Elvira', you seem like an Elvira."
Negasonic "You don't even know my power, you just heard about it from others, you know why? Because I don't flaunt my shit like some narcissistic fuck who needs everyone to look at me." Does Kaydin grate her? Why yes he does. "Wow, way to steal her line, Kaydin." Ellie snorts even though Kaydin doesn't really have a way of knowing Cindy was asking just that earlier.

Ellie shrugs at Cindy's threat, "tell'em, like I give a fuck, I said it because you looked it. Just like stupidface over there, has a stupid looking face," phone goes back up, and again her thumb is racing about it. "The fuck is an Elvira?" She asks without looking up from her phone, "name's Ellie."
Kaydin     "Too old for someone like you." Kaydin says as he pours himself a soda and he nods to the girl with the tail. "I dont flaunt my powers. To me you are moving at the same pace as a snail. I just react. " He says as he sips his soda and moves over to Cindy. "I got some beef jerky if you want some." He says as he pulls out his baggy full of beef jerky. "Dad makes it back home near seattle." He says with a friendly smile.
Cindy Larsen     Cindy nods her head at what Kaydin says. "Yeah, she was some goth chick from like, the 1950s or something." Shrugs her shoulders. "You got a phone, look it up." Then there's beef jerky being offered, and the leopard-gal's eyes shift back over to Kaydin. "Ooh, yeah, that sounds great," she says, "Thanks!" Once she's got a piece she sticks it in her maw, using the teeth along the side of her mouth to gnaw a chunk off. She doesn't really chew it much, instead just savoring the flavor before swallowing it. "Well, s'cool to meet both of you," she says, "How long have you two been at the school?"
Negasonic "Why would I know about someone from forever ago?" Ellie mutters, as if she was annoyed at the suggestion she should be familiar with it. "I got more important things to do then look up Elvira," Ellie notes to Cindy, not telling her she was posting a tweet about her right now. Looking aside as Kaydin offers Cindy some jerky, she snorts, "watch it, Too Fast To Last is trying to hit on you." Asked how long she been here, Ellie shrugs, "a few months? Ever since the accident basically. You're brand new, aren't you?"
Cindy Larsen     Cindy shakes her head at that, chewing on the beef jerky still. "Naw," she says, "I've been... a year or so now, I just keep a low profile. I've gotten pretty good at it, in fact. There's a couple really good spots around campus that let me get away from everyone else, and, uh." She leans a little closer to Ellie to add, in a less vocal tone, "He's really not my type."
Negasonic Ellie thumbs a few more keys on her phone, before looking aside at Cindy and laughing, genuinely amused for once, "he's nobody's type, he's a creep and has a terrible taste in words," as an after thought, she adds, "check that the food he gave you wasn't tampered with, who knows...he might try anything."
Cindy Larsen     Cindy quirks a brow slightly, still chewing on the jerky. "Nah, I don't think he looked -that- desperate," she says, "Besides, you tell me when you meet a guy who'd wanna try putting something in my mouth without my permission." As though to emphasize her point, she draws her lips back to reveal what are practically scissor-like rows of teeth along the sides of her maw, and she bites off a chunk of the beef jerky with a 'snap' of her teeth. "And I'll show you a guy who makes really bad decisions."
Negasonic "Guys make bad decision by nature, it's what they do," Ellie points out, before finally putting her phone away, "I'm sorry but I have a class I need to attend, I think...catch you later, Barbie," she waves and heads out the door.
Cindy Larsen     Cindy just nods her head and gives a wave while she's taking another drink of water. "Yeah, have fun," she calls after her. Cindy pulls out her phone again, and takes up the role that Ellie was filling when she arrived, of a teenager tapping away at her phone and not paying attention to anything else around her.
