Silas looks over and notices Rebecca looking. He just stares at her blankly.

With a flourish of his hands the thumb was reattached!

He looks over at who Noelle was waving too and he'd wave her over too. Totally room for one more!

"Come on! I'll give you a trick too."

Enya first looks back to make sure Noelle and Eric are actually talking to her before grinning and sitting with her and Eric!

"Ahh! I'm excited!"

Hello.

Jenni sees Silas and makes her way over sitting next to him. She gives him a nod.

He's sorta kinda like a big brother? Not that the guy talks a lot...

"You know me so well."

He smirks at John, before nodding at Martin.

"We'll see. I prefer a more hands-on approach, though."

And with that, he walks up towards the podium, lifting a hand to get the students' attention. After about thirty seconds of waiting for quiet, Jack begins.

"I'll make this fast. Some of you may have heard this speech when you were new agents, and for some, this will be the first time. To all those gathered here, let me tell you this:

You've made the right choice.

Today is your first day of being part of Paradigm Academy. We save the world from those who are too much for regular military, with skills that are unavailable to them. I won't lie, sometimes it hurts. Some of you may not come back, but you are doing what the world needs."

Jack takes a breath, watching the gathered students for a moment.

"...But you are not alone. Every staff member here has faced similar dangers to what you will face. We will train you, advise you, teach you everything we can for you to be successful. And you will have each other."

"Hey, I'm Eric. This is Noelle."

He went to reach behind Enya before  the speech starts prompting him to stop.

"After!"  He promised.

"Ethneh, Eric must show you his trick."

Noelle totally butchers the name before turning her attention to Jack!

Yeva would approach Mike.

"Welcome. You can call me Eva. What is your name?"

Listening to the same speech she had heard before. She was interested in her fellow Meta's.

Rebecca raises her brows at Silas's unimpressed expression, but between his gaining someone new to talk to and Jack at the front giving his speech, she's distracted. Her gaze goes to the front of the room as she listens. It's nothing she doesn't expect so far.

Silas sighs when Jenni sits down next to him, but doesn't protest. He turns his attention to Jack's speech, but doesn't seem particularly moved nor annoyed.

Matt stands up in the back of the room, crossing his arms and watching as well, though focusing more on the students who weren't paying attention.

"Shh."

Enya starts to laugh at the pronunciation but doesn't correct her yet. The speech would start!

She found her attention completely captured by what the director said. Mostly because that's exactly the kind of stuff she was hoping to hear.

Clyde makes a face, but says nothing.

He looks around, noticing people aren't really paying attention, and does what any sixteen year old would do seeking attention.

He puts his palms to his lips, and makes a loud fart noise.

Bahram nodded to Matt, offering a wave, before going about and doing what all the other Senior agents did. When someone spoke, he'd approach them and wag his finger.

Eric sighed, he felt tingly. In a nervous way. It was scary and exciting!  Though the loud fart noise makes him snort in laughter!

Silas looks so very upset at the existence of whoever that kid is. He pulls out his cellphone to find out who he is by finding all his social media pages.

"I'm Mike."

He said, extending a hand to shake before the speech. When the fart sound happened he just shook his head. But he was grinning. It WAS kind of funny.

Martin scowls at Clyde, but doesn't do anything! It'd be beyond petty to TK-discipline a kid, and really, wasn't he a stupid kid not that long ago?

...Jesus, he feels old, even as he listens to Jack talk.

Rebeeca looks in the direction of the fake fart, biting the inside of her cheek but unable to hide a wry smile.

It was more entertaining than the speech.

Noelle giggles at the fart noise.

Jenni just rolls her eyes glancing over at Silas curiously.

Jack resists the urge to roll his eyes, but continues.

"....moving on. The first thing the new students among you will be doing is to experience the academy in a tour. Agent Stevenson will be showing you around, so please stand up and follow him."

John raises from his seat, leaning in toward Jack.

"Feel free to give that one a shock."

He points toward Clyde.
